Hey Kenneth, *and all*!
What *advantages*, by the hell (sorry to say) *Shall WE HAVE*, please, by having those Ancient, old, discussions there? What *we shall need*, *instantly*, I'm thinking, as to: How can we (all) get further on on this Famous Rexx Missile Topic, *all together*, when possible, only, of course, ****Please *** Thomas. ================================================================== Am 08.02.2013 20:58, schrieb Kenneth Klein (TEMA TPC):

In reply to this post by kenner
I am trying to do a clean install NetRexx 3.01 on Windows as a
newcomer would do it.
It is not easy. The NetRexx website's "Documents" tab does have: The NetRexx Tutorial, which looks like the right place to start, but it is a decade out of date, incomplete, and has only this: Installing NetRexx is an easy process. In a nutshell, you need to:And Appendix I: Appendix I: InstallationBut, plowing ahead anyway and downloading and expanding the NetRexx 3.01 release, there is a read.me.first. After changing PATH, and CLASSPATH, and copying tools.jar, I got to step 5: 5. Test the installation by making the executables directory theWhat is the "executables directory"? The end of step 5 has this: If you have any problems or errors in the above process, please read theThe NetRexx Quick Start Guide has a slightly - but important - different wording: 4. Test the installation by making the /bin directory the current directory and issuingThen comes the shocker: C:\Program Files\NetRexx\bin>java org.netrexx.process.NetRexxC helloApparently hello.nrx is not included in the 3.01 package. I can write my own (and have and it runs), but the whole process is very off-putting to anyone not really motivated to get NetRexx working. I know a universal installer is almost impossible, and even OS specific installers are hard to do and maintain. But we should have clear, correct, instructions up front. I suggest that read.me.first and/or NetRexx Quick Start Guide be listed in the website Documents section, and of course they be corrected and reconciled. And hello.nrx be included in 3.02. Thank you. Now I am off to find njpipes, which is completely hidden away. (Download | Tools) is one place I'd look. Nope. It is in Kenai, but not off of Netrexx there. _______________________________________________ Ibm-netrexx mailing list [hidden email] Online Archive : http://ibm-netrexx.215625.n3.nabble.com/ |

Jeff,
thank you for your report. A hello.nrx is added to the 3.02 trunk and the read.me.first has been made consistent with the Quick Start Guide, with substitution of the words 'executable' and '/bin' - I was not aware that this file also referred to this. Someone should update the tutorial. I have put it up on request but I am not too happy about it; I agree that at least the links should be updated. NJPipes still was not released, as the document that needs to go with it is not ready. For this reason only the development version is on Kenai. best regards, René.

René,
Thank you for the reply and action -- and all else! What can I do to help with the NJPipes documentation? (IMHO, the Tutorial should be available from a special historic category, not as "prime" documentation. Its title is just too tempting where it is.)

Hi Jeff,
thanks for your offer. The skeleton of the book is at netrexxc/trunk/documentation/njpipes in the kenai repository. There is an updated njpipes.pdf there. If you want to work on it, go ahead because your name is already on it. The production process should be straightforward, but there are some snags. There is a special font for the title page (because I wanted that to be IBM Bodoni which I was used to all the years that I worked with this software) and there is a tool for producing railroad diagrams that needs a compile. With a standard LiveTex distribution it should work except for mentioned details. But just updating the files or sending them to me should work; I can put in the tags and built it if needed. best regards, René Jansen.
