- CONTENTS
- =======================================================================
- This archive contains the sources of the Jext software. The sources
- of the core are placed in the src/ directory.
-
- Here are the contents of the src/ directory:
- - docs : contains the files needed to build the documentation. The
- soft used for generation is missing but can be freely
- downloaded (see docs/bin/bin.txt)
-
- - lib : contains the sources of Jext itself
-
- - plugins: contains the sources of the default plugins
-
- The file jext.manifest is used to produce the binary jar file and
- the file jext.version is used for update warnings in Jext (this file
- is uploaded on a FTP server).
-
- COMPILING SOURCES
- =======================================================================
- In order to compile Jext you need to download the tool called ANT
- from the following URL: http://jakarta.apache.org/ant
-
- Beware of the fact that only ANT 1.2 or higher will compile Jext !
-
- Then, simply open a terminal console in the directory where you
- unpacked both the sources and the binaries (you need to download TWO
- archives from the Jext web site) and run ANT in the src\ directory.
- Several targets are available. Most used are: compile, jar, javadocs,
- dist, dist-tgz
