WSAD 5.1 and JDK1.4

I would like to use JDK1.4 with WSAD 5.1. I have installed the JDK and set that as default for JRE in the Preferences.
I still don't know how to change the Test environment to use JDK1.4.
Is this even possible? If it is any help on how to configure this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

You can't use JDK 1.4 in the WebSphere Test Environment in WSAD 5.1. That's because WSAD 5.1 is based on WAS 5.02, which uses JDK 1.3 ONLY. We do not allow you to swap out the JDK for the Test Environment.
Luckily, however WSAD 5.1.1 (note the different number!) is now out and available, and natively supports JDK 1.4 in its WTE. You need to upgrade to WSAD 5.1.1.

Hi Kyle,
I currently have WSAD 5.1.0 and I'm trying to upgrade to WSAD 5.1.1 as you mentioned, however, I can't seem to find the new version or upgrade from the Software Updates from WSAD. I can only see the WSAD 5.1.1 Trial Program. Is there another site I missed? Thanks!

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
