Installing the extension on macOS
Studio User Guide
Last updated Nov 4, 2024
Installing the extension on macOS
There are several methods for loading the Java extension from a custom directory on macOS, similar to the process on a Windows environment.
While these examples are based on a Java application named
JavaDisabledElements
launched from a .jar
file,
they are applicable to other applications as well.
This method is applicable across all versions of Java, including Java 9 or greater:
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-1.8.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -cp /Users/example/Documents/UiPath/Driver/MacOS/Output/JavaSupport/UiPathBridge.jar:/Users/example/Documents/UiPath/Driver/MacOS/Output/JavaSupport/UiPathV8.jar:/Users/example/Documents/UiPath/Driver/Qa/UiPath.Driver.Tests/open/TestApps/JavaDisabledElementsApp/JavaDisabledElements.jar -Djavax.accessibility.assistive_technologies=UiPath.UiPathBridge JavaDisabledElements
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-1.8.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -cp /Users/example/Documents/UiPath/Driver/MacOS/Output/JavaSupport/UiPathBridge.jar:/Users/example/Documents/UiPath/Driver/MacOS/Output/JavaSupport/UiPathV8.jar:/Users/example/Documents/UiPath/Driver/Qa/UiPath.Driver.Tests/open/TestApps/JavaDisabledElementsApp/JavaDisabledElements.jar -Djavax.accessibility.assistive_technologies=UiPath.UiPathBridge JavaDisabledElements
Expected output:

If the Java runtime supports the extension loading mechanism, you can use environment variables. Here is an example:
export JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-Djava.ext.dirs=/Users/example/Documents/UiPath/Driver/MacOS/Output/JavaSupport -Djavax.accessibility.assistive_technologies=UiPath.UiPathBridge
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-17.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -jar /Users/example/Documents/UiPath/Driver/Qa/UiPath.Driver.Tests/open/TestApps/JavaDisabledElementsApp/JavaDisabledElements.jar
export JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-Djava.ext.dirs=/Users/example/Documents/UiPath/Driver/MacOS/Output/JavaSupport -Djavax.accessibility.assistive_technologies=UiPath.UiPathBridge
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-17.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -jar /Users/example/Documents/UiPath/Driver/Qa/UiPath.Driver.Tests/open/TestApps/JavaDisabledElementsApp/JavaDisabledElements.jar
Expected output:

For native macOS applications, parameters can be added by editing the
Info.plist
file. This can be done only where applicable.
Here is an example where we used an application called SAPGUI for Java and extension files from a Driver Portable build for macOS:
