This is a short guide to setup a KineticModels development environment on Windows or Linux. The guide covers the installation of:
You can get the JDK version 6 from http://www.oracle.com
Download the Windows off-line installation executable and follow the procedure. After the installation add the following system variable
JAVA_HOME=<path to JDK root directory>
and the next path to the system PATH variable
%JAVA_HOME%/bin;
Download the Linux self extracting archive, choose a directory where you want to instal the JDK and execute it. After the installation you must add the following lines to the file .bashrc
export JAVA_HOME=<path to JDK root directory> export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
If you are using a JDK or JRE not equal to version 6 and you don't want to override your current OS configuration you can still install the new Java Virtual Machine and avoid the setup of the JAVA_HOME variable. You can later configure Maven2 and Eclipse to use Java 6 independently of your current system configuration.
You can get the latest version of Maven2 from http://maven.apache.org
Installing Maven2 is very easy. Download the latest zip archive, choose a directory where you want to instal Maven and uncompress it.
Add the system variable
M2_HOME=<path to Maven2 root directory>
and the next path to the system PATH variable
%M2_HOME%/bin;
If you decided in the previous step not to setup a JAVA_HOME system variable you can update the batch script %M2_HOME%/bin/mvn.bat adding the following line at the beginning
set JAVA_HOME=<path to JDK root directory>
Add the following lines to the file .bashrc
export M2_HOME=<path to Maven2 root directory> export PATH=$M2_HOME/bin:$PATH
If you decided in the previous step not to setup a JAVA_HOME system variable you can update the shell script %M2_HOME%/bin/mvn adding the following line at the beginning
export JAVA_HOME=<path to JDK root directory>
You can get the console based client of Subversion from http://subversion.tigris.org
