-
- This program is completely designed as a test, therefore it mostly
- implements its own code instead of a derivation of an ISO reference
- source or any other code. Considerable effort has been expended to
- ensure an useful implementation, even in cases where the standards
- are ambiguous or misleading.
- Do not expect any useful output, even if that may be possible.
-
- For a program compliant to the international standards ISO 11172
- and ISO 13818 it is inevitable to use methods covered by patents
- in various countries. The authors of this program disclaim any
- liability for patent infringement caused by using, modifying or
- redistributing this program.
-
- /==============================================================================/
-
- This program includes software developed by the
- Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/).
-
- This software contains fast high-quality IDCT decoder by Miha Peternel.
-
- /==============================================================================/
-
- This program is provided in sourcecode form only,
- because it is meant for educational purposes.
- Binaries of this project itself will not be included (may not apply to external libraries)
-
- If you need an executable, you have to compile the package by yourself,
- or you ask someone to do so for you.
-
- /==============================================================================/
-
- For a compilation, you need a Java SDK, which is available for various platforms.
-
- All classes should work at least with Sun's JDK/J2RE 1.2.2 and higher.
- Note: under special circumstances, some graphic drivers/locales cause
- big troubles with some versions of JRE's on different OS's.
-
-
- Extract all files from the received archive to a separate directory.
- Note: dependent on the used JDK/JRE, ensure that the directory does not start with a '!'-sign or similars,
- otherwise you'll get an error like 'main class not found'
-
- /**
- * sample of a compilation (may differ on your system) :
- */
- (A) open "build.bat" with an editor and check/correct the entry/path of JAVA_HOME
- of your installed JDK
-
- (B) execute the "build.bat" on its place.
- that will compile all sources,
- build the .jar file and
- copies the resource files from the resource folder into the new .jar,
-
- Notes:
- [i] now, we made a package for the sources,
- the file sources.lst points to every required sourcefile and its location
- [ii] the following libraries are required on this place from the V 0.82.0,
- related to the executed .jar:
- - lib/commons-net-1.3.0.jar (compiled with JDK 1.2.2) *)
- - lib/jakarta-oro-2.0.8.jar (compiled with JDK 1.2.2) *)
- [iii] the following libraries are optional from the V 0.82.0 :
- - lib/idct*.dll (win32 optimized lib's for a faster preview)
- copy one of them to the systems folder or where the compiled .jar is located
- [iv] dependent on the used JDK, you'll encounter some 'warnings' about 'using a deprecated API'
- that's not critical, as long as an actual JDK still supports these methods
-
- *)
- further informations and newer versions (mostly compiled with JDK 1.4.2) you'll find at:
- 'jakarta.apache.org/site/binindex.cgi', look for 'Commons Net' and 'ORO'
- - using newer lib's possibly requires an update of the 'build.bat' and 'MANIFEST.MF' !
-
-
- (C) additional received resource files (e.g. other language files) can be added
- to the .jar file, later,
- or you put them into the same folder where the compiled .jar is executed.
-
-
- (D) new with version 0.90 and later:
- it is possible to compile and run this program without the gui (means all source files in /gui/..).
- so there is no requirement of running a X server or similars anymore, calling it from the commandline.
-
- if you can't start the non-gui version without a X server, try to call pjx with the 'headless' option
- java -Djava.awt.headless=true -jar ProjectX.jar [options] <file>
-
-
- the compiling process doesn't take more than about 30 seconds.
