Requirements

For running the binary version:

  • Windows, macOS, or Linux, on a x86_64 CPU
    • We do not currently support running on Linux installations without libc present See #1016
  • Java is not required for this version
  • The binary is automatically downloaded by vscode-xml if it is needed, with no additional action required on the part of the user.

For running the Java version (required if you want to run extensions to the base XML features):

  • Java JDK (or JRE) 11 or more recent
  • Ensure Java path is set in either:
    • xml.java.home in VSCode preferences
    • java.home in VSCode preferences
    • Environment variable JAVA_HOME or JDK_HOME
    • Note: The path should end at the parent folder that contains the bin folder. Example Path: /usr/lib/jvm/jre-11 if bin exists at /usr/lib/jvm/jre-11/bin.
    • Note: If the path is not set, the extension will attempt to find the path to the JDK or JRE.

See how to set java home for more information how this extension searches for Java.
