Platform Requirements
1. The VM CodeGuide is running on: CodeGuide is entirely written in Java. This means it can be used on every Java enabled platform. However we have tested CodeGuide only on a few good VMs. We encourage you to use CodeGuide with one of them:
Microsoft VM for Windows - VM Build 3155 or higher Javasoft 1.1 VM for Windows - v 1.1.7b or higher http://www.javasoft.com/products/jdk/1.1 Javasoft 1.2 VM for Windows + Hotspot - v 1.2.2 (Classic VM or Hotspot VM) http://www.javasoft.com/products/jdk/1.2
http://www.javasoft.com/products/hotspot/launch/download.htmlJavasoft 1.3 VM for Windows - v 1.3 beta http://developer.java.sun.com/servlet/SessionServlet?action=showLogin&url=/developer/earlyAccess/j2sdk13/ IBM 1.1 VM for Windows - v 1.1.7 http://www6.software.ibm.com/dl/dkw/dkre-p Sun VM for Solaris - v 1.1.7, Java 2 SDK IBM 1.1 VM for Linux - v 1.1.6 alpha http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/linuxjvm Blackdown 1.1 VM for Linux + TYA JIT - v 1.1.7v1a (+ TYA 1.2v4) http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html

2. The JDK you want to develop with: To use all the features of CodeGuide you need a Java Development Kit. We encourage you to use one of the following JDKs.
Javasoft JDK 1.1 for Windows http://www.javasoft.com/products/jdk/1.1 Javasoft JDK 1.2 VM for Windows http://www.javasoft.com/products/jdk/1.2 Javasoft JDK 1.3 VM for Windows http://developer.java.sun.com/servlet/SessionServlet?action=showLogin&url=/developer/earlyAccess/j2sdk13/ IBM JDK 1.1 for Windows http://www6.software.ibm.com/dl/dkw/dkre-p Sun JDK for Solaris IBM 1.1 VM for Linux http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/linuxjvm Blackdown JDK 1.1 for Linux http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html
Note - You can also run CodeGuide with the VM which is supplied with the JDK you are developing with. In this case you just have to download the desired JDK. For example you can download only Sun JDK 1.2 for Solaris and use it as a VM to run CodeGuide as well as a Development Kit.
First of all install the downloaded VM and/or development kit on your computer. See the platform requirements for more information about this.
To install CodeGuide simply extract all the program files (contained in the distribution file you have downloaded) to any directory. The installation needs not to make any changes to your system.
Windows
If you work under Windows you can start CodeGuide by executing CodeGuide.exe. This program will try to start CodeGuide by using a VM which can be found from the command path (wjview.exe, jview.exe, javaw.exe or java.exe). If no VM is in the path or the VM version is not supported CodeGuide.exe will fail. In this case or if you like to start CodeGuide with any other VM try the Pure Java start.
UNIX
If you work under UNIX you can start CodeGuide by executing CodeGuide.sh. This script will try to execute CodeGuide by calling a VM from the command path. If no VM is in the path CodeGuide.sh will fail. In this case or if you like to start CodeGuide with any other VM try the Pure Java start.
If you like to start CodeGuide with any particular VM make sure <CodeGuideHome>/lib/CodeGuide.jar, <CodeGuideHome>/lib/swingall.jar and <CodeGuideHome>/lib/OROMatcher.jar are prepended to the classpath (<CodeGuideHome> denotes the path to the CodeGuide directory for example: "/usr/lib/CodeGuide-1.2"). Afterwards you can run the main class called CodeGuide by invoking the VM (e.g. call "java -ms16m CodeGuide").
We want to make CodeGuide the best development tool available. So we are always interested in eliminating bugs and problems which may occur while using CodeGuide. You are welcome to report such problems.
To submit a bug you can use the bug report form at www.omnicore.com/support.html or send us an email to support@omnicore.com. Please don't forget to mention your VM version and the version of your CodeGuide copy. We are looking forward to get feedback and bug reports from you.
Note - You can avoid a lot of platform specific problems by using one of our recommended VMs.
