Hello all, Sorry if this is an inappropriate list but hope it's OK.
I would like to get JOSM working properly from a USB flash disk, with Java on the disk too, for times I am using a Java-less machine (e.g. a university computer). I have it mostly working but with some errors. My understanding of java is negligible but I would like to work on this. I have started some notes here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Talk:JOSM#Run_JOSM_from_flash_drive_with_my_prefs.3F I copied an installation of the latest Java runtimes from an installation on my home PC to my flash disk. In a windows batch file, I can run JOSM like so: set APPDATA=\somefolder \java\bin\java.exe -jar \josm\josm-latest.jar The first line tells Java/JOSM where to find my preferences, and this works OK. JOSM then runs but I get an error popup at startup: Error initializing test SpellCheck org/openstreetmap/josm/gui/preferences/AnnotationPresetPreference ...and in the DOS box on launch it says: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openstreetmap/josm/gui/preferences/AnnotationPresetPreference It looks like Java and/or JOSM is not finding things it expects to find, either within Java's libraries or within josm.jar. Any ideas on tackling this would be most welcome.
