Installation


Hardware and software requirements:

  • Java Development Kit 2 (the graphical user interface does not run on beta releases). At the present time the latest JDK available is 1.2_2,available from Sun for Solaris and Windows platforms. Linux is also supported, but the current JDK_pre-v2 is still unstable and may not work properly depending on which libraries your system has. Remember to put the bin directory into your search path.
  • 32 MB of RAM (minimum), but I strongly recommend 64 MB if you plan to use the graphical user interface and the console server on the same machine.
  • Enabled TCP/IP support into your operating system.

Copying files

The installation of the program is quite easy. Just get the install.class file and type 'java install', and this will open the installation wizard of the Object Network toolkit. Then follow all steps. Click here if you encounter any problem.

The installation wizard will create the following directory structure under the path you chose:

directory structure:


./LICENSE.txt license for the agreement of use.
./README.txt important release notes.
./bin/ directory of executable scripts.
./bin/rungui.bat runs the graphical user interface on Windows platform.
./bin/rungui runs the graphical user interface on Unix platform.
./bin/runcs.bat runs the console server on Windows platform.
./bin/runcs runs the console server on Unix platform.
./bin/runc.bat runs the interactive console on Windows platform.
./bin/runc runs the interactive console on Unix platform.
./lib/ directory of libraries.
./lib/netobj.jar system classes.
./doc directory for documentation files.
./doc/readme.html this file.
./doc/MTON MTON docs.
./doc/plug plug docs.
./doc/api documentation of the API [PENDING].
./doc/GUI documentation of the Graphical User Interface
./demo/ directory for demonstration nets.
./demo/Petri Petri nets demo.
./demo/TSP Genetic Algorithms demo 1 (individual level)
./demo/TSP2 Genetic Algorithms demo 2 (population level)
./demo/Fuzzy Fuzzy Inference Engine demo.

After that you can simply type rungui to start the graphical front-end of the toolkit. Notice that it's preferable that you set you PATH environment variable to include the bin sub-directory of the installation, however this is not required. The ONtoolkit does not need any other setting to run.
