Workspace Upgrade Requirements

Anypoint Studio creates workspaces in which you can create and group your projects. By default, the first time you open Studio, it creates a default workspace and holds all your projects in it. Your Mule application projects might not be fully compatible with workspaces created by a different version of Studio.

Projects created using Studio 6.x.x are not compatible with Studio 7 because they are Mule 3 projects.

See Update Workspaces for more information.

Hardware Requirements

  • 8GB of memory.
    MuleSoft recommends a minimum of 4GB of free RAM available on a developer workstation. As applications become complex, consider adding more RAM.

  • 2GHz CPU.

  • 10GB free hard drive space.

Apple M1 processors have not been thoroughly tested on Studio 7.12. Please, proceed with caution.

Software Requirements

  • Studio bundles two different JDKs:

    • Adoptium Eclipse Temurin OpenJDK 11 (11.0.13+8)
      JDK 11 starts and runs Studio and the Mule runtime instance used for tooling.

    • Adoptium Eclipse Temurin OpenJDK 8 (8u312-b07)
      JDK 8 is the default JRE for running Mule projects.

      You can configure Studio to start using your preferred JDK version by following the Configure Studio to Use Your Own JDK steps.

      This version of Studio is not compatible with Java 9 or Java 10.

  • Operating Systems

    • macOS 10.12.0 through 11.0.0

    • Windows 10 (64-bit)

    • RHEL 7.0

    • Ubuntu 15.04 or later

Running real-time antivirus protection software on your operating system might have a negative impact on Anypoint Studio performance. Although this issue is prominent on Windows, it also occurs on Linux and macOS.

Although the steps to solve these performance issues vary depending on your antivirus software, a typical solution is to either allow or exclude the Anypoint Studio and java executables, the Studio install and workspace filesystem locations, or some combination of both. See examples of solutions for McAfee Viruscan, Windows Defender, and Symantec Endpoint Protection.

Known Issues

Known Issue ID

The Toggle Comment option does not work to comment multiple components at the same time.

When commenting a component, editing the component configuration using the Mule Properties view causes the flow to break.

When editing a commented out component, the Edit button remains available causing redundancy.

Commenting out a component removes the flow containing the component from the documentation generated using File > Export Studio Documentation.

Commenting a Transform Message component with an XML comment (--→) in the Dataweave script breaks the flow

Toolbar buttons in views disappear after some combination of state and actions.

Eclipse Bug #572598

Context help wizard is not styled correctly in dark theme.

Eclipse Bug #532184

The input/output panes of the Transform Message component display an incorrect background color when using the light theme.
