requirements / installation

NetUtil requires a Java(tm) 1.4+ environment. NetUtil has also been successfuly running on Android.

download

The current version can be downloaded here:

Either go to the regular download section for stable builds, or use SVN to grab the latest developer sourcecode version.

documentation

Documentation comes in the form of JavaDoc. The generate the docs, open a terminal, cd into the JCollider folder and run:

$ ant doc

compilation / usage

Please read the DevelopersNeeded note.

The source code can be compiled using Eclipse SDK 3.4+ (www.eclipse.org) and Apache Ant 1.6.5+ (ant.apache.org). The Eclipse project file is configured to run the regular Ant build file. You can make a clean build just with Ant from the terminal:

$ ant clean jar
$ ant test

The "test" will run with UDP server test, you can leave away that task. If you want a more compact build without debugging (line numbers) information, add -Ddebug=false to the ant call.

The final product will be a file build/NetUtil.jar which you can include in the classpath of your application.

The class de.sciss.net.test.NetUtilTest is supplied for simple testing routines that demonstrate the use of some of the classes (some of the examples printed in the API docs). Execute java -jar build/NetUtil.jar to learn about commandline options for running these examples. For more sophisticated examples of using the library, have a look at JCollider, Eisenkraut or SwingOSC.
