System
requirements and installation
This document
covers Jtrix release 0.12. You will be reading it either on the
site or from your downloaded distribution.
About the
release
There are various
download options available for this release. In either
case there is only one download, and this is relevant for both
Linux and Windows 2000. You can obtain them from http://www.jtrix.org
You will also want to go there to pick up the tutorial which explains
how to use it and how to write simple Jtrix applications.
System
requirements
For a binary
distribution you only need the Java 1.3.1 runtime environment installed.
See below for some URLs of where to get this.
For the source
distribution you will need both JDK 1.3.1 and the Ant build tool,
version 1.2. (See below for URL.) On Linux we also recommend you
have the following:
- ctags-exuberant
(for building tag files)
- dia
(for diagramming)
- g++ (2.95.2)
(for building the VM-accounting plugin)
Installation:
binary distribution
A binary distribution
only needs to be unzipped. Use your favourite (un)zip tool, depending
on whether you downloaded a .zip or .tgz file.
The distribution
expands into one top level directory containing several subdirectories.
