netrexx - one more try

[Phillip Gramly-2]

I downloaded GA 3.07 of netrexx to my Linux system.

I unzipped it with the -a option into my home directory:

$ pwd

$ /home/prgramly/Downloads

$ unzip -a -d /home/prgramly/netrexx/ NetRexx-3.07-GA.zip

... (unpacking responses)

i verified that have have the right things in the netrexx/bin and netrexx/lib directories. all looks fine.

i have java installed - 10.0.2 SE Runtime Environment 18.3 (build 10.0.2+13)

i am simply trying to follow the steps in the quick start guide - section 3.3, pg. 21

i cd into the netrexx/lib directory and enter the command as indicated in the manual:

$ pwd

/home/prgramly/netrexx/lib

$ ll

Hi Philip,

on Linux, I think you can just set the path to the right version, and that will link to the required libraries automatically..

Let me know how it goes.

best regards,

René.

yes, you could try to make a bespoke nrc.sh, for example:

export PATH=/opt/java8/bin:$PATH                                  # when that is your java executable

export CLASSPATH=~/lib/NetRexxF.jar:$CLASSPATH   # to find netrexx classes on the java classpath

java org.netrexx.process.NetRexxC $@

The NetRexx translator is java class NetRexxC in package org.netrexx.process - this is why the above works.

Note that every terminal window has its own set of environment variables; my general .bashrc is set to java 9, while I 

source java8

in terminal windows where I compile netrexx.

for my (macOS) system, this looks like:

export JAVA_HOME=`/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.8`

export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH

So you can just switch one terminal window to java 8, which keeping the default on java 10.

best regards,

René.
