WebSphere application servers have always been slightly picky about the
JDK/JVM they require. Support from IBM is also picky when you are using an
"unsupported" JDK with WebSphere. It is possible to have multiple versions
of the JDK on your machine with WebSphere using one JDK, Tomcat using
another and VisualAge using still another. This usually requires some
manual intervention on your part to modify the target JDK within the startup
script for one or more of these applications.
IBM does supply a JDK conversion assistant to help you to switch from one
vendor's JDK (version 1.2.2) implementation to another. The conversion
assistant guides you through the modifications required to allow WebSphere
to find and use the new JDK.
The following is a list of supported JDKs for various versions of WebSphere:
