Introduction

  • XML Compiler

  • Deployer

  • DODS

Chapter 1. Requirements

  • Enhydra 5.1 installed

  • Jdeveloper 9 installed

  • JDK 1.4

Chapter 2. Install

  • Run kelp-jdeveloper.setup.exe

  • Choose Enhydra home and Jdeveloper home folders and finish setup program

  • After setup, if your Jdeveloper uses JDK1.3 change it to 1.4.

    One way to do that is:

    • run <JDEVELOPER_HOME>/jdev/bin/InstallOJVM.bat <JDK1.4_HOME>

    • set property 'SetJavaHome' in <JDEVELOPER_HOME>/jdev/bin/jdev.conf to <JDK1.4_HOME>, i.e.: 

      SetJavaHome c:/j2sdk1.4.1_01

    NOTICE: you should make Jdeveloper's copy of jdk 1.4 and use it instead of system jdk 1.4. Other your other java application may not function properly.

Installation program will add kelp.jar in <JDEVELOPER_HOME>/jdev/lib/ext folder and all needed libraries in kelpLib subfolder.
