Re: Java SE 7, Update 5 (JDK 7u5)

Did you look at my screenshot in the other thread, and also try out the test page I linked to? Unless I'm totally off the wall here, you have the most up to date version.

Yes, I did see your screenshot. The build version showing in your screenshot is the same as mine.

However, the NEW build version is "u5". Not "b05". Thus the reason for my question, why is the build version not showing as "u5".

Yes. However the NEW build version is "u5" and not "b05".

Why is the build version showing the wrong version.

The build version has nothing to do with the "update" version. 1.7.0_05-b05 absolutely IS the latest update. "1.7.0" is Java SE 7, "_05" is u5.

Straight from the authoritative site ( »www.oracle.com/technetwo ··· 274.html ):

The full version string for this update release is 1.7.0_05-b05 (where "b" means "build") and the version number is 7u5.

Fixed.

For some reason the forum editor attached the closing parenthesis and colon to the url - simply take these off the end of the url after you get the '404' and refresh, or click on the link in the updated post above.
