| 24 | REQUIREMENTS
|
|---|
| 25 |
|
|---|
| 26 | In order to use this version of OpenJDK, you will need the following:
|
|---|
| 27 |
|
|---|
| 28 | - A OS/2 Warp 4 Fixpack 16+, OS/2 Warp 4.5 or eComStation operating system.
|
|---|
| 29 |
|
|---|
| 30 | - Odin32 library version 0.6.21470 (2010-10-01) or above:
|
|---|
| 31 |
|
|---|
| 32 | ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/odin/odin32bin-20101001-release.wpi
|
|---|
| 33 |
|
|---|
| 34 |
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 | INSTALLATION
|
|---|
| 37 |
|
|---|
| 38 | The OpenJDK product is distributed in two packages: the JRE and the SDK
|
|---|
| 39 | (which includes a copy of JRE). Simply take a necessary package and unzip it
|
|---|
| 40 | to a directory of your choice. You will need to add the \bin subdirectory
|
|---|
| 41 | inside this directory to PATH and BEGINLIBPATH to allow for starting Java
|
|---|
| 42 | executables from an arbitrary location:
|
|---|
| 43 |
|
|---|
| 44 | set PATH=<directory>\bin;%PATH%
|
|---|
| 45 | set BEGINLIBPATH=<directory>\bin;%BEGINLIBPATH%
|
|---|
| 46 |
|
|---|
| 47 | Also make sure there are no traces of other Java installations in the
|
|---|
| 48 | environment because this is known to make problems (this in particular means
|
|---|
| 49 | that the CLASSPATH environment variable should not be set).
|
|---|
| 50 |
|
|---|
| 51 | Alternatively, you may add this subdirectory to PATH and LIBPATH statements
|
|---|
| 52 | of your CONFIG.SYS (and reboot) to make the given Java installation the
|
|---|
| 53 | default one.
|
|---|
| 54 |
|
|---|
| 55 |
|
|---|
| 56 |
|
|---|
| 57 | CURRENT LIMITATIONS
|
|---|
| 58 |
|
|---|

|
|---|
