Platform Specific Notes
Windows NT 4.0
You must use JDK 1.1.7B or higher.
OS/2 Warp
The installation directory for Simplicity for Java as well as the Project directory must be located on an HPFS drive.
OS/2 users may wish to execute the simpwps.cmd file. This REXX script will create a WPS object on the OS/2 desktop for starting Simplicity.
We recommend using either jdk114 or jdk117 from IBM. These can be found at http://www.ibm.com/Java/jdk/download/. Do NOT use jdk116, as it contains a bug which will crash the WPS, when you exit from Simplicity. If you are using JDK 1.1.8, be sure to download the fixes from IBM (ftp://ftp.hursley.ibm.com/pub/java/fixes/os2/11/ ).
The debugger needs to have the localhost interface enabled. You can do this by typing the following command in an OS/2 window:
Note that this will be reset when you next reboot your computer.
Linux
Before installing Simplicity, make sure that you have the latest Linux JDK from www.blackdown.org. Simplicity for Java will work properly with either jdk1.1.7_v3 or jdk1.2.2_rc3.
Suse Linux users: the rpm packaged JDK from older Suse distributions contains an incomplete version of libjpeg.so. This causes the jdk to be unable to display jpeg files. To fix this, install the .tar.gz distribution from blackdown (jdk1.1.7), and then copy the libjpeg.so from that distribution over the one in /usr/X11R6/lib.
Macintosh
It is highly recommended that you have at least 64 MB of RAM to run Simplicity for Java. MRJ 2.1.4 is the recommended version of the MRJ.
Solaris
On some Solaris machines, Simplicity for Java will stall shortly after starting. This can be fixed by disabling the JIT. (Uncomment the appropriate line in the startup script.) Solaris 8 users will need to be sure to edit the first line of the shell script as described in the script.
SCO UnixWare
On some SCO machines, Simplicity for Java will stall shortly after starting. This can be fixed by removing the -mx100m argument from the startup script. (Uncomment the appropriate line in the startup script.)
