Update Creo to support Java 21
Creo+
Description
Creo has updated its support of Java to version 21 to address several security vulnerabilities with the old version and to align with Windchill’s Java support matrix. Customers can choose to upgrade to the chosen Java JRE distribution from either Oracle or Amazon Corretto. Creo requires Java 21 JRE only if users are accessing customization through J.Link or Java Object Toolkit, Creo Product Insight connected to Thingworx, or Windchill PLM Connector. Regular communication with Windchill does not require users to have Java installed.

• Maintains support of the latest version of Java to address potential security vulnerabilities in older versions
