The standalone version of JavaView requires a simple registration (since
version 3.0) by filling out the following form. Without a registration
JavaView will be fully functional but display a "missing license" statement
in the display. JavaView applets do not require a license.
Fill out the following form to register. To renew a license, please,
follow the same steps and register again.
You will obtain a license via email.
Note: *-marked fields are required !
1. The licenses generated since Nov 1, 2007
require v3.95.001, see download section. Users of v3.95 or older must
download the patch before registration for a new license. Licenses issued before October 31 will
remain valid in
v3.95 until end of 2007.
2. Duration of licenses has been expanded,
expiration date in June has been dropped.
We ensure that all submitted data will be handled confidential and not
made available to anybody else. You will not receive any informational mail
from us unless you mark the corresponding check box.
Note: An evaluation license
will typically be valid until the end of a year. If a license expires simply register
again.
- Fill out the above form. Submitting the form will send a license
file via email to the given address.
- Save the email attachment
jv-lic.lic file to your
<JavaView>\rsrc\ directory.
- Launch the JavaView application, and ensure that the JavaView
codebase refers to
the directory
<JavaView>.
Note, the JavaView codebase is NOT the codebase of the Java virtual
machine and does NOT refer to the JavaView jar archives. Instead, the
JavaView codebase refers to the installation directory of JavaView such that
JavaView is able to find it resources like images, model files and license
file.
Examples
If JavaView is installed in c:\Programme\JavaView\ then copy
the license file to
c:\Programme\JavaView\rsrc\jv-lic.lic
Now invoke JavaView with either of the following alternatives.
1. If JavaView is invoked with the scripts in <JavaView>\bin
with
cd c:\Programme\JavaView\
bin\javaview
The codebase is automatically assigned in bin\javaview.bat
to c:\Programme\JavaView and may need to be adjusted to your
settings.
2. If JavaView is directly launched using the Sun JVM then call
cd c:\Programme\JavaView
java -cp jars/javaview.jar;jars/jvx.jar;jars/vgpapp.jar javaview
codebase="c:/Programme/JavaView"
Note:
- the second command might be broken over two lines!
A shortcut to the second command is provided by the UNIX script bin\javaview
and by the Windows batch file bin\javaview.bat.
- under UNIX it might be necessary to separate the archive with
':' instead of
';'.
3. If JavaView is launched with the Windows executable <JavaView>\javaview.exe
then use
cd c:\Programme\JavaView
javaview
4. JavaView has two command line arguments to assign the JavaView
codebase and the location of the license file. The codebase should be an
absolute path
javaview codebase="c:\Programme\JavaView"
The license location must be a relative path, relative to the codebase.
javaview jv-lic="rsrc/jv-lic.lic"
5. JavaView may be invoked from other locations and in many different
ways but then the JavaView codebase must be set additional to the codebase
setting for the Java virtual machine.
