Jbuilder 2005 doesn't run on a Intel Mac (OS X Tiger)

Hi guys,
It seems that Jbuilder 2005 cant run on Intel Mac with OS X Tiger. It always
give this error.

Java for ppc cannot run in this configuration

When borland will make an Universal version of JBuilder to run on the new Mac
box?
Otherwise the mac users have to switch to use Eclipse.

You should review the discussions of this topic in the
"borland.public.jbuilder.macintosh" newsgroup.  I believe
we arrived at a working solution.

Search the archives; see my sig below for a link to the relevant

   That means, do not send email directly to me.

I had the same problem and found no help on the
borland.public.jbuilder.macintosh newsgroup.

I did find a solution on the internet.

Jbuilder.app is a macintosh localised frontend for jbuilder which seems to be
written otherwise purely in java (seems logical).  Since the frontend is in
Mach-O ppc format, it runs through rosetta which unfortunately does not run java
at all and fails.  You need to make a script which will be your frontend to
jbuilder.  here's the script: 

#!/bin/sh
JBUILDER_HOME=/Developer/Applications/Borland/Jbuilder2005
cd $JBUILDER_HOME/JBuilder.framework/bin
jars=`find ../patch ../lib -name *.jar | tr '\n' :`
exec
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Commands/java
-Xdock:name="JBuilder2005":icon=$JBUILDER_HOME/JBuilder.app/Contents/R

I guess you did not look hard enough.  There is DETAILED information in
that group.
