Using the JavaMonitor as an Application Requirements - Java Runtime Environment The Java Runtime Environment (also known as the Java Runtime or JRE) consists of the Java Virtual Machine, the Java Core Classes, and supporting files. It is the runtime part of the JDK only (i.e. no compiler, no debugger, no tools). The JRE is the smallest set of executables and files that constitute the standard Java Platform. JRE is distributed by Sun Micro Systems. At this time, the latest version of the JRE is 1.1.3 with support for Windows 95/NT and Sun Solaris. It can be downloaded from the following address: http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/jre/index.html The JRE download/distribution bits size are: Windows 95/NT: compressed: 2525897 Bytes/uncompressed: 2.5 MB Sun Solaris: compressed: 5717674 Bytes/uncompressed: 8.2 MB To execute JBM, simply run ‘JRE' from a Windows 95/NT command line or UNIX shell specifying the class 'Monitor.class' Using the JavaMonitor as an Applet Requirements - Java capable web browser (e.g. IE or Netscape 3.x and above) - directory access to the HTML page containing the embedded HTML ‘applet code’ tag note #1: If directory access to the HTML page is not possible ( e.g. Macintosh browser not having access to a UNIX directory), the HTML page must be served from an HTTP or FTP server. In doing so, the directory containing the Java Monitor classes must be installed under a public directory of the HTTP or FTP server. In addition, the HTML page must be modified to specify the directory of where the classes are installed. This is achieved by extending the HTML ‘applet code’ tag with the CODEBASE property. Example #1 -the Java Monitor classes are installed in a directory located under http:///JavaClasses/. Example #2 -the Java Monitor classes are installed in a directory located under ftp:///JavaClasses/. An anonymous account must be configured permitting directory read access to the location specified by CODEBASE when using an FTP server.
