Background
EXAplus on Windows is started by exaplusx64.exe that starts the exaplus.jar main class in the Java interpreter. The exaplusx64.exe tool looks in the registry for the path to the newest Java installation.
Improvement
The EXAplus starter tool "exaplusx64.exe" will use the Java interpreter set in the PATH variable of the console where it is started. This gives the user a much better control of what Java EXAplus will use. It is also more independent of the settings of the Java installations.
Changed behavior
The EXAplus starter tool "exaplusx64.exe" will use the Java interpreter set in the PATH variable of the console where it is started. Before it was looking for Java installation in the Windows registry.
