Java question
 

Would someone that has managed to get some java running please try to run cgoban on it (that's a client for a Go-Server).

The jar can be found at files.gokgs.com/javaBin/cgoban.jar.

The application is started via "java -jar cgoban.jar".

If that runs I'll buy a N900 immediately...

Many thanks!

Hi Fred123
i'm a little late, but can you explain me how to do it?
or maybe now there's an even simpler way?

thanks

Select Linux (arm)

Then download
"Java SE for Embedded 6 Update 21 (Build 9) ARMv7 Linux - Headful, EABI, Hard Float (VFP), Little-Endian"

Extract it to /opt/

Then make symlinks:
In X Terminal, as root:

ln -s /opt/ejre1.6.0_21/bin/* /usr/bin/

You can start jar files from your N900, as user (unless if the java application require root rights, which is rare):

java -jar jarfile.jar

Thanks
i did what you say
but terminal is saying : "unable to access jarfile cgoban.jar"
where do i have to put the .jar?
thank you

As user, the default working directory is /home/user. The usb internal storage is at /home/user/MyDocs/, the memory card is at /media/mmc1/
For example, if you install it in the usb mass storage, tou will need to type
java -jar "MyDocs/The path where you installed it/cgoban.jar"
