\begin{verbatim} Since GL4Java Version 2.0.0 Release 1, GL4Java do supports the Java2 plattform ! Since GL4Java Version 2.7.1, GL4Java do supports the privileges of the extension mechanism ! Please read INSTALL.txt first ! You may have many Java2 installation's, e.g.: under unix, e.g.: /jdk1.3 /usr/lib/jre1.3 or under window, e.g.: c:/jdk1.3 c:/Programme/JavaSoft/JRE If you want to use both java installations, you have to install it in both directories ! E.g. the first one is for you development usage, where the secound one is for your java jre 1.3 plugin usage within your web browser. If you use the JRE >= 1.3 plugin within you Web-Browser or appletviewer to: - Install GL4Java - Run the demo's from the GL4Java Website you must add privileges to your jre/lib/security/java.policy file, to install GL4Java with the GL4Java Installer ! Here are the privileges for this purpose (installation only): http://www.jausoft.com/Files/Java/1.1.X/GL4Java/Installer/java.policy Prerequisites ============== Be sure to have: ./jre/lib/ext/gl4java.jar : for Java2 or JRE ./jre/lib/ext/gl4java-glutfonts.jar : for Java2 or JRE ./jre/lib/ext/png.jar : for Java2 or JRE For Windows32: Java2-Plug-In, Java2, JRE (prefered) ./jre/bin/GL4JavaGljMSJDirect.dll ./jre/bin/GL4JavaJauGljJNI.dll ./jre/bin/GL4JavaJauGljJNI12.dll ./jre/bin/GL4JavaJauGljJNI13.dll ./jre/bin/GL4JavaJauGljJNI14.dll or c:/windows/system/GL4JavaGljMSJDirect.dll c:/windows/system/GL4JavaJauGljJNI.dll c:/windows/system/GL4JavaJauGljJNI12.dll c:/windows/system/GL4JavaJauGljJNI13.dll c:/windows/system/GL4JavaJauGljJNI14.dll For Unix: Java2-Plug-In, Java2, JRE (prefered) ./jre/lib//libGL4JavaJauGljJNI.so* ./jre/lib//libGL4JavaJauGljJNI12.so* ./jre/lib//libGL4JavaJauGljJNI13.so* ./jre/lib//libGL4JavaJauGljJNI14.so* or /usr/lib/libGL4JavaJauGljJNI.so* /usr/lib/libGL4JavaJauGljJNI12.so* /usr/lib/libGL4JavaJauGljJNI13.so* /usr/lib/libGL4JavaJauGljJNI14.so* * => all symbolic links and the file itself, use "cp -a" to keep the symbolic links alive ! Be sure to copy the linked lib-files also ! After installation you may do a "ldconfig" call as root ! Java2 Command-Line JDK (1.3-1.4.X, sun) on Win32: ================================================= Well, you have to start the java.exe from the /jre/bin/java.exe Otherwise, the jawt.dll is not found !! BUG in JDK !! Java2-Plug-In, Appletviewer, Security: ====================================== Since GL4Java 2.7.1, the gl4java*.jar files must resides within the jre/lib/ext directory. In this case no special policy is needed for use GL4Java and you can skip this chapter !! For GL4Java <= 2.7.0 only: To allow JAVA2's appletviewer and Plug-In using JNI native libs, just look at GL4Java/demo/Java2Applet.bat (You have to change the GL4Java.policy file) ! You can - of course - use your 'policytool', which is shipped with JAVA2 ! You can check JAVA2-Plug-In with the Java-Applets-Html-File's demos/glLogoCvsAppletJ2P.html demos/glOlympicCvsAppletJ2P.html demos/testTextPPM1J2P.html To use the demo Applets for Java2-Plug-In from www.jausoft.com, please add the following lines to your java.policy file: grant codeBase "http://www.jausoft.com/Files/Java/1.1.X/GL4Java/demos/-" { permission java.security.AllPermission; }; TODO: ===== Test other plattforms :-) \end{verbatim}
