I have also unziped/untared it in /usr/local and then chown -R user where user
is the user you want to run it under, then move the vajide script to ~user/bin
and edit that script to give the full path to /usr/local/dir_where_you_put_vaj.
Here is my edited script:
########################################
#/bin/bash
# This script sets the environment and launches
# VisualAge for Java Professional Edition, V3 Tech Preview for Linux
if [ ! -d /usr/local/vajava/ide/program ]; then
echo "Please extract the VisualAge for Java for Linux tarfile in your home
directory."
exit
fi
export PATH=.:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
__PREV_DIR=$PWD
cd /usr/local/vajava/ide/program
ide
cd $__PREV_DIR
#########################################
I have seen some people on the SoftwareSummit mail list bitching that they can
not use this in a global manner. Put your gripes in a coke bottle and use it
as a stool!!! Thank you IBM for taking the time to port this great IDE to
Linux.
Another great feature is that I can export and import projects between VAJ
running at work on NT and VAJ running on my home office machine in Linux. VAJ
does not appear to give a toss where the project came from. The code is there
and it all just works.
