Cartographer GUI Installation and Operation

Overview

The Cartographer GUI is a completely native Java application (not Applet) that does not require any additional libraries or Jar files other than what comes with the standard Sun distribution. It does not require any Java Native Interface (JNI) access to system nor third-party libraries. It communicates with Cartographer agents using the [XMP] protocol and can discover and display the dependencies between systems and applications.

Java Requirements

The Cartographer GUI application is written in native Java and Swing and currently uses only bundled libraries that ship with the Sun distribution. Testing has not been done with non-Sun Java installations.

%java -version
java version "1.6.0_01"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_01-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.6.0_01-b06, mixed mode)

Development and testing of the Cartographer GUI occurs primarily on Linux and Solaris. Testing is occasionally performed on Windows.

Unpacking the Distribution

Starting Cartographer GUI

Start the Cartographer GUI by first changing to the directory that it is installed in.
