Installation

Download

The compiled software can be downloaded from Download page. As the software is written in Java, the compiled code runs on most platforms. The software consists of a single jar file opendino.jar.

Running OpenDino

Start OpenDino by either:

• double clicking on the jar (this is simple, however, not activated on all platforms and console output may not be seen).
• open a Linux shell or Windows Command Line and enter one of the following two command in the same directory as file opendino.jar was downloaded (Windows often requires the latter command).

$ java -jar opendino.jar  

$ java -classpath opendino.jar org.opendino.core.OpenDino

• to see additional command line options enter

$ java -jar opendino.jar -help 

Writing a Shell Script

The script assumes an OpenDino archive file opendino.jar.

For Windows, create a file opendino.bat with the following content:

 java -cp opendino.jar org/opendino/core/OpenDino %* 

To use the batch file also from different directories, use the absolute path, e.g.:

 java -cp C:\Programs\opendino.jar org/opendino/core/OpenDino %* 

Now you can also double click project files (*.opl). When Windows ask for the program/app to open this file, choose the batch file written above.

For Linux, create a file opendino.sh with the following content:

 #!/bin/sh
 java -classpath opendino.jar org.opendino.core.OpenDino $*

To make the file executable enter in the shell:

 chmod u+x opendino.sh
