Compiling A-globe

 

  1. Install ant.
    To do that, unzip the archive \install\apache-ant-1.5.3-1-bin.zip somewhere to your harddisk.
    Add the bin directory of ant to your PATH system variable, e.g.:

    PATH = c:\apache-ant-1.5.3-1\bin; %PATH%

  2. Install JAVA2 SDK.
    To do that, run the installer \install\jdk-1_5_0-windows-i586.exe.
    Then set the JAVA_HOME system variable to JAVA2 SDK home directory, e.g.:

    JAVA_HOME = c:\jdk1.5.0

  3. To compile A-globe, first copy the directory \src\ and all its subdirectories somewhere to your harddisk. Then go to the directory src\aglobe\ that you've just created on your harddisk and at the command line type the following:

    ant
    ant examples
    ant migrating
    ant send2

    This will compile A-globe and A-globe example classes and place the resulting files into the directory src\aglobe\dist\.
