Installing Knopflerfish
Installation instructions for the complete framework
You need at least Java 1.2.2 to install the framework.
The Knopflerfish OSGi framework should be installed by simply running the distribution jar file, either by double-clicking on the distribution file, or by the command:
> java -jar knopflerfish_osgi_<version>.jar
This will open an installation wizard for selection installation directory. Follow the on-screen instructions.
If you don't need the wizard, installation can also be done in batch mode, by entering the command:
> java -jar knopflerfish_osgi_<version>.jar -batch
...or by simply unpacking the jar file manually.
(WinZip is also capable of unpacking .jar files)
The framework can then be started either by double-clicking on the framework.jar executable jar file in the knopflerfish.org/osgi directory, or by entering the commands
> cd knopflerfish.org/osgi
> java -jar framework.jar
Installation instructions for the tiny, remotely loading framework
- Unzip the distribution zip file
- Execute framework.jar
> cd knopflerfish.org/osgi > java -jar framework.jar
