This interrim build runs on JDK version 1.4.2 and higher.
To install this build, chdir to the "jre" directory within the jdk
and unzip (or unjar) the zip file. For example, if your JDK is installed
-in /usr/java/j2sdk1.5.0, you would install this as follows:
+in /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_06, you would install this as follows:
- cd /usr/java/j2sdk1.5.0/jre
+ cd /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_06
unzip /path-to-extracted-files/j3d-140-*.zip
You may need to be "root" to do this on Solaris or Linux.
+
+Here is an example of how to install Java 3D 1.4.0-beta3 on a Windows/XP system:
+
+ 1. Download java3d-1_4_0-beta3-windows-i586.zip to a temporary directory,
+ for example, "c:\Temp"
+
+ 2. Unzip java3d-1_4_0-beta3-windows-i586.zip (using WinZip or a similar
+ tool) into "c:\Temp". You will see the following files in the
+ "java3d-1_4_0-beta3-windows-i586" subdirectory:
+
+ COPYRIGHT.txt
+ HOW-TO-INSTALL.txt
+ LICENSE-JRL.txt
+ README.txt
+ j3d-140-beta3-win.zip
+
+ The file you need is "j3d-140-beta3-win.zip".
+
+ 3. Unzip Java 3D 1.4.0 into your JRE as follows:
+
+ * Locate your "JRE". The default location for the current
+ release is: "c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06"
+
+ * Unzip j3d-140-win.zip (found in
+ c:\Temp\java3d-1_4_0-beta3-windows-i586) to the jre directory.
+
+ * Verify that the j3d*.jar and vecmath.jar files end up in:
+ "c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\lib\ext"
+
+ * Verify that the j3d*.dll files end up in:
+ "c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\bin"
+
+ 4. If you also installed the JDK, unzip Java 3D 1.4.0 into the "jre"
+ directory of your JDK as follows:
+
+ * Locate the jre directory of your "JDK". The default location
+ for the current release is:
+ "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\jre"
+
+ * Unzip j3d-132-win.zip (found in
+ c:\Temp\java3d-1_4_0-beta3-windows-i586) to the jre directory of
+ the JDK.
+
+ * Verify that the j3d*.jar and vecmath.jar files end up in:
+ "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\jre\lib\ext"
+
+ * Verify that the j3d*.dll files end up in:
+ "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\jre\bin"
+
