Revision as of 15:12, 27 March 2009 by Unnamed Poltroon (Talk)
This page explains how to generate the Nebula Example application as Webstart
Contents
Get the sources
features/org.eclipse.nebula.examples_feature features/org.eclipse.nebula.examples_webstart org.eclipse.swt.nebula.examples + all nebula widget projects
Create necessary files
- Create keystore for signing the jars : keytool -genkey -alias nebulawebstart -keyalg RSA -keystore nebula.keystore
Generate Webstart
Export org.eclipse.nebula.examples_webstart from eclipse feature export wizard.
Select :
- Destination - Package as individual jars - Sign the JAR archives (fill keystore informations) - Create JNLP manifest (fill site URL site and JRE version : 1.4+)
Edit JNLP
Edit nebula.jnlp and set the right name for the equinox launcher (depends of your Eclipse version, look for this file in plugins directory)
<jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.101.R34x_v20080819.jar" />
Publish Webstart
(You need to publish all files to the right site URL before testing.)
- Copy plugins, features, startup.jar and nebula.jnlp to the target site. - Launch nebula.jnlp.
Known problems
- This only generates a JNLP for one single platform
