JRE upgrade question

Hi,

I am trying to upgrade from Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_05 to Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_13 via SMS.

Do I have to uninstall Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_05 before I install the new Java version? Or can I just install the new version on top of the old one.

What is Java's recommended approach? Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

Java allows multiple version to co-exist. Installing a new version will not install on top of an older version, it will create another installed version. Uninstall the older version, first, if you don't want it.

Thank you for the reply. What is the recommended approach from Java? Is it recommended to uninstall or leave the older version alone. Will there be any potential conflicts in the future?Thanks in advance.
