JNLP without web start...

843802Sep 10 2001 — edited Sep 10 2001
Hi,

I would like to use JNLP as it I like the method of specifying an application's configuration, eg jars, properties and native libraries. It's more controlled and versionable than having to use a command line 3 metres long.

However, we use Marimba Castanet and I want to stick with that, so no need for Web Start. My question then is does the JNLP or another package have an API that will allow me to start a java application using a .jnlp file without going through web start?

Also I need my application to have unfettered securiry access without signing the jars, just as it does at the moment where the application is started from the command line.

Thanks, jamie

Hi there!

Well, try installing java3d in the same directory as ur java(which is c:\jdk1.3.1 for u).

If i am not mistaken, java3d, by default, installs in c:\jdk1.2.2 directory.

U also have 2 set the path and classpath in the autoexec.bat to addr to \bin and \lib sub-directories resp.

OK, this is a known problem with the J3D installer and Windows ME. I (along with many others) have had the same problem. I believe someone came up with a workaround, try searching the forum for previously posted topics. I eventually had to copy the 6 J3D files off of another computer manually.
