Visiscript 0.4.3 Options

[freizugheit]

The new version Visiscript 0.4.3 works smoothly on my SL-5600.

Can someone shed some lights how to configure it to run various scripting langugaes, like python or other programming languages?

Hi all.
It's possible run a java program?

Thanks.

Hi all.

Yes.

Preconditons:


Installation of JDK 1.1.8 classes.zip from Sun and to be stored under /mnt/cf/java/classes
Installation of Jikes Java Compiler and to be stored under /mnt/cf/java

Installation of Ewe Java Virtual Machine for Zaurus

Unzip Ewe149-Developer-SDK.zip and move the whole classes directory to /mnt/cf/java


Steps for compilation and actvattion of java code using HelloWorld.java supplied by Ewe SDK as example:

- Use Visiscript to open /mnt/cf/java/classes/tests/HelloWorld.java. You may wish to modify the java code.

- Create the following script file j.sh and save it under /mnt/cf/java using Visiscript (one-time creation):

CODE

#!/bin/bash
cd /mnt/cf/java/classes
rm $1.classs
echo "Compiling"
jikes -classpath classes.zip:CompileEwe.zip $1.java &> Aerr
echo "Displaying Errors"
cat Aerr |more
echo "Activating"
ewe $1

- In Visiscript's Main Window, click View Menu and select Configuration.
- Select the Script tab
- Type "/mnt/cf/java/j.sh tests/HelloWorld" into the field next to the Command label.
- Click OK to return to Visiscript's Main Window where text files were created.

- Press the Play button to activate the command line you have just entered.
- The script file j.sh will be executed.
- Your java code will be compiled by Jikes and activated using Ewe VM.

Voila!!!!!
