Stefan Seelmann resolved DIRSTUDIO-1070.
----------------------------------------
    Resolution: Not A Problem
      Assignee: Stefan Seelmann

I don't see a problem, Studio works fine on OS X with Java 8. If multiple Java versions are installed the proper one can be configured in {{ApacheDirectoryStudio.ini}} file. Also the JDK instead of the JRE is required. I updated the FAQ: https://directory.apache.org/studio/faqs.html

>             Project: Directory Studio
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M9 (2.0.0.v20150606-M9)
>         Environment: OSX 10.10
> Installed JavaSE, JavaSDK

> Well it won't even run without installing a old Java6 SDK.
> That would be problematic since DS Studio is what I use for maintaining the really critical stuff, so I would prefer to not get attacked anywhere I go by having old Java crud installed.
> It seems it would mostly be a matter of modifying the plist file.
> The DS FAQ has some info about setting the java version but OS X is not mentioned in those howtos.
> I'm going to try poking at the file, but most probably i'll fail and just sit there and sob.
