Documentation
Start here. Includes a map of all other documentation and a
description of the directory strucure
-- The XWT home page [www/ or http://www.xwt.org/]
-
- A complete copy of all static and dynamic content for
- www.xwt.org is in the xwt/www/ directory.
+- The XWT home page [http://www.xwt.org/]
-- The XWT tutorial [www/html/tutorial.html_]:
+- The XWT tutorial [http://www.xwt.org/tutorial.html]
Gentle introduction to what XWT is, and how to write
.xwt's. Good for anybody who wants to write XWT applications.
-- The XWT reference [www/html/reference.html]
+- The XWT reference [http://www.xwt.org/reference.html]
Precise, technical spec of exactly how XWT works. Assumes
familiarity with XWT (ie, you've read the tutorial). This is the
authoritative source for how an XWT engine should
behave.
-- Javadoc [www/html/javadoc/package-summary.html]
-
- The org.xwt.* packages are all documented with javadoc. If
- you've just checked out or downloaded a fresh copy of the XWT
- distribution, you can generate the javadoc by typing
- "./ant www" at the root directory of the distribution. You
- should start by reading the package summary for org.xwt.Main,
- and work your way around from there.
-
-- Javasrc [www/html/javasrc/index.html]
-
- Javasrc generates a syntax-colored and hyperlinked html copy of
- the XWT source code. To generate this documentation, type "./ant www"
- from the root directory of the distribution.

Build Targets
-To build, make sure your $JAVA_HOME points to jdk1.2 or later, and type
+ *** XWT now requires JDK 1.4 or later to build ***
+
+To build, make sure your $JAVA_HOME points to jdk1.4 or later, and type
./ant -Dplat=<platform> <targetname>
list as of 20-Mar-2002:
Win32 - Windows 95 / NT4 or later
- Java2 - Any Java 1.2+ compliant JVM
+ Java12 - Any Java 1.2+ compliant JVM
Valid <target>s are:
build - builds a binary for the selected platform
- dist - creates deployment materials for the selected platform in dist/
- run - runs the binary for the selected platform
The following targets do not require that you specify a platform:
compile - compiles all .java's to .class'es
clean - empties bin/ and compiled binaries in dist/
- www - rebuild www/html/
- push - push changes to the web server via ssh (RSA auth)

Building
-- If you only want to build the JVM version of XWT, delete these two
+- WARNING: Jikes 1.16 has a bug which will cause it to generate
+ corrupt .class files; you must downgrade to 1.15 in order to compile
+ XWT.
+
+- If you only want to build the JVM version of XWT, delete these three
files:
xwt/src/org/xwt/plat/Win32.java
+ xwt/src/org/xwt/plat/POSIX.java
xwt/src/org/xwt/plat/GCJ.java
This will allow XWT to build correctly *without* gcc 3.1. Otherwise,
you must compile and install gcc 3.1.
-
- The Win32 native version of XWT can ONLY be built with the very
- latest pre-release of GCC 3.1. You can follow the steps below to
- create a cross-compiler from linux to Win32.
-
- If the steps below fail, try adding "-D 20-Mar-2002" to the cvs
- checkout line; 20-Mar-2002 was the last date on which the compiler
- was known to work. Please don't do this unless you have attempted
- without it, however, since it puts additional strain on the gcc cvs
- server.
-
- There are also two patches at the end of this file which can be
- applied to the branch -- the first disables Win32 file locking (so
- you can view XWT's log files while it is running), and the second
- makes Throwable.printStackTrace() work.
