It's confusing for people to have more than 1 way to start it - we used to have a JAR in the top level directory as well, some people double-clicked this, which kind of worked, but didn't set the right JVM options. It also gets more difficult to support when there's more than 1 way to start the program. > The BAT file option would be handy if you've inadvertently removed java > after installing (which has happened to me after a windows update before). I don't understand - why would the BAT file help? It still would not run! :-) It would be less helpful than the EXE.. If this happens (which is precisely I tested this, I uninstalled Java), the .EXE would again detect that Java is not installed and tell you what to do - if Java is there it would simply start Taverna. (But I see the case for DEVELOPERS to have the BAT file, yes.. as they can then play with parameters.. we also have the issue of changing the memory size - so we could include the BAT file in a subdirectory) -- Stian Soiland-Reyes, myGrid team School of Computer Science The University of Manchester ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ taverna-hackers mailing list [email protected] Web site: http://www.taverna.org.uk Mailing lists: http://www.taverna.org.uk/taverna-mailing-lists/ Developers Guide: http://www.mygrid.org.uk/tools/developer-information
