| To get started with the example you will need jdk 1.5.0_x, |
| where x is pretty recent (>= 15), or any release of jdk 1.6. |
| You will also need ant 1.7.0, with ant .net plugin if you |
| want to build csharp. You will also need microsoft .net |
| sdk 2.0 for csharp builds. |
| |
| To build: |
| |
| > ant |
| |
| This will run the default target which will build both java |
| and csharp programs. You can also use build-java or build-csharp |
| targets to build only java or only csharp. |
| |
| To run java chat, open a cmd window and run these commands: |
| |
| > cd target\bin |
| > start java -cp chat.jar etch.examples.chat.MainChatListener |
| > start java -cp chat.jar etch.examples.chat.MainChatClient |
| > start java -cp chat.jar etch.examples.chat.MainChatClient |
| |
| Two chat clients will be started; there is a help command; |
| login as a different user in each with any password; they |
| can chat with each other! |
| |
| To run csharp chat: |
| |
| > cd target\bin |
| > start ChatListener.exe |
| > start ChatClient.exe |
| > start ChatClient.exe |
| |
| You can mix and match the various clients and listeners. |
