JSwat depends on the Java Platform Debugger Architecture (JPDA).
See the JPDA
website for more information. The required classes are
generally found in a file called tools.jar
which is
located in the lib
directory of your JDK. Fortunately,
the JSwat build files automatically include this file in the
classpath, so you do not have to take any action at this time.
To compile JSwat you will need the latest version of the Jakarta Ant tool, maintained by the Apache group. Download and install this tool before continuing. Granted, you could compile JSwat without Ant, but it would take longer to explain than it would for you to install Ant.
Compile JSwat by invoking 'ant compile
' on
the command line.
To run JSwat, use the command 'ant go
' and
it will start after a few seconds. As with compiling, you could run
JSwat without Ant, but you would not want to once you knew how.
