--------------------------------
This directory contains the beginnings of the Java-Implemented plug-uns.
The sources is divided into four directories
classes
Java source files
src
Native code (c++/c)
jni
Implamentations of java native methods
test
Test code, including simple pluglet.

Win32 Directions:
========================================================================
Requirements:
* current mozilla built tree
* JDK1.3 or JDK1.2 if you are not using OJI
* Perl 5 perl.exe must be in your path
How To Build:
* make sure the environment var JDKHOME is set to your jdk installation
directory, ie SET JDKHOME=C:\jdk1.2
* if you do not have working OJI set OJI_DISABLE to 1
(You can do it in your command prompt, or you can set it in
mozilla/java/plugins/src/makefile.win).
* type "nmake /f makefile.win"
How to Run:
* Add following directories to to your path:
%MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME%
In case OJI_DISABLE add %JDKHOME%\jre\bin\client to your path
* Copy class files from mozilla/dist/classes to your JRE/lib/ext directory and
add JRE/lib/ext to your classpath
How to build and run test
* go to the test directory and type "nmake /f makefile.win"
* Set PLUGLET environment to the directory you have test.jar
* Run mozilla and load page test.html from test directory and if everething is ok you will see
some awt demo.

* Add following directories to to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH:
$MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME:$JDKHOME/jre/lib/$HOSTTYPE/native_threads:$JDKHOME/jre/lib/$HOSTTYPE/client:
$JDKHOME/jre/lib/$HOSTTYPE/:
* type "gmake"
How to Run:
* Add $MOZILLA_FILE_HOME/../classes to your CLASSPATH
How to build and run test
* go to the test directory and type "gmake"
test.jar will be placed in mozilla/dist/bin/plugins directory
* set LD_PRELOAD to libXm.so (to libawt.so on linux platform)
* Run mozilla and load page resource:///res/javadev/pluglets/test.html and if everething is ok you will see some awt demo.

TD> Hello Ed,
TD> Sorry to say but there remained something wrong.
TD> The installation and the building of the project was easy.
TD> Firefox is started nicely when running the project,
TD> and the ...examples/index.html was displayed.
TD> But none of the two examples seem to work, only blank pages are sho=
wn.
TD> (The HTML sources do contain the code we expect i.e. the navigation=
from the
TD> index.html to the examples works of course.)
TD> A looked to about:plugins, nppluglet is enabled.
TD> I checked prefs.js it contains the following lines (among other one=
s):
TD> user_pref("plugin.allow_alien_star_handler", true);
TD> user_pref("plugin.default_plugin_disabled", false);
TD> user_pref("plugin.override_internal_types", true);
TD> I do not know what the problem is.
Can you please remove your "Documents and Settings/<USERID>/Application=
Data/Mozilla" directory, start the browser, stop the browser, re-edit
the prefs.js, and try again?
Ed
also remove pluginreg.dat
in C:\Projects\chaff\pluglet-1-1-a1\
find netbeans -name private -prune -o -type f -exec cp {} "/cygdrive/c/Projects/mozilla/MOZILLA_NIH/FIREFOX_2_0_0_3_RELEASE/mozilla/java/plugins/dist/{}" ;
