exe4j Wizard - Choose Preferred VM

## exe4j Wizard - Choose Preferred VM |

Note: this advanced option screen is reachable by selecting the "JRE" step and choosing "Preferred VM" from the [Advanced options] popup menu or by clicking directly on the index.

In this step of the exe4j wizard, you can configure the preferred VM that exe4j will choose to invoke your application. This setting only influences the choice of the VM type after a JRE has been selected according to the search sequence. The search sequence for the JRE is specified in a different step.

| After exe4j finds a suitable JRE or JDK, it tries to honor the setting you make in this step. You can select one of the following: default VM exe4j will use the default VM for the found JRE. client hotspot VM exe4j will try to use the client hotspot VM for the found JRE. This is equivalent to using the `-client` switch when invoking `java` from the command line. server hotspot VM exe4j will try to use the server hotspot VM for the found JRE. This is equivalent to using the `-server` switch when invoking `java` from the command line. Please note that it is not an error if the selected JVM is not present for the found JRE. exe4j will simply use another JVM to launch your application in that case.
