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 Apache Ant tool. 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.
