I have been successfully running the current release of Fiji with Java 8 on
my desktop Win7-x64 image. I have tried to do this with my win7 32 laptop
with the same custom launcher (a shortcut). In this case the code is:

C:\Apps\Fiji.app.win32\ImageJ-win32.exe -Dpython.cachedir.skip=false
--java-home "C:\Apps\Java32\jdk1.8.0_51" --

The version for Java 1.7.0_79 works fine. The version for Java 1.8.0_51
show the Fiji icon for a moment, then nothing. I have verified all the
paths. Have others seen this? Any suggestions?

If you are wondering, I use the non-standard Java install paths to avoid
spaces so I can use Makefiles to run scripts.

Best Regards,
John Minter
