Description

When installing BusinessConnect plugin for BusinessWorks 6.3.0 onto a BusinessWorks 6.8.1 installation, the installer fails with this message:

!MESSAGE Missing requirement: TIBCO BW SharedResource BC ConfigStore 6.3.0.002 (com.tibco.bw.sharedresource.bc.configstore 6.3.0.002) requires 'java.package; org.jdom 1.0.200' but it could not be found

This is cause by the update of the JDOM library in BusinessWorks 6.8.1 has been updated to 2.0.6 in BW 6.8.1.  The installer does not recognize the higher version, so it fails
