Installing the Web Start Wizard SDK setup_wsw30_501


A version of the Web Start Wizard SDK has been provided by Sun. This is in the file setup_wsw30_501.class. It supports Solaris 2.5.1 or higher, Linux 6.1 or higher, Windows 95, 98 and NT. It requires Java 1.1.3 through 1.3.x.

To download the SDK click on the following link:

setup_wsw30_501.class

Once downloaded, change to the directory containing the class file and run:

java setup_wsw30_501

(without the .class extension).

Follow the instructions to complete the installation. It is not necessary to be superuser. This will create a subdirectory called Web_StartSDK usually in the user's home directory. On my system it's /steve/Web_StartSDK. Now using a web browser, open the URL:

file://(your_install_dir)/Web_StartSDK/docs/index.html

where you will find links to the documentation for the software. The .txt files and samples directory in the Web_StartSDK directory are also important. The link above points both to documents on your local machine and sites at Sun.
