<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class="">Hi Carrie,<div class="">I was concerned that something was wrong with the code. You only need to check out JSword and Bible Desktop into the same folder and then run ant to build the code. I just did the following and “it just worked”. I’ve got ant and JDK Java 8 installed and on the PATH. I’ve been at JavaOne this week and from what I learned, it probably won’t build under Java 9, because of the new module system (aka Jigsaw). You should be able to use Java 5, 6, 7 or 8 for building it.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Our fundamental and primary way to build and run is to use ant.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div class="">#First create a folder</div><div class="">mkdir bd</div><div class="">#Then go into it</div><div class="">cd bd</div><div class="">#get the code for JSword</div><div class="">git clone <a href="https://github.com/crosswire/jsword.git" class="">https://github.com/crosswire/jsword.git</a></div><div class="">#Then go into the root of that checkout</div><div class="">cd jsword</div><div class=""># And build the code.</div><div class=""># Note: the default target will run all kinds of stuff besides tbe build, such as QA stuff</div><div class=""># Note: this will also get all the third-party dependencies using ivy</div><div class="">ant build</div><div class=""># Then get BibleDesktop into the same folder as you got JSword</div><div class="">cd ..</div><div class="">svn checkout <a href="https://crosswire.org/svn/jsword/trunk/bibledesktop" class="">https://crosswire.org/svn/jsword/trunk/bibledesktop</a> bibledesktop</div><div class=""># Go into the root of that checkout, just like we did for JSword</div><div class="">cd bibledesktop</div><div class=""># Then build it. Like JSword the default target will do more stuff like QA and packaging</div><div class="">ant build</div><div class=""># Then run the program</div><div class="">ant exec</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The above should work on Linux or Mac from a terminal window. If you are on Windows you’ll probably have to install ant. And you’ll have to adjust the commands above.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">As far as running it on the command line, bibledesktop/etc/bin/ has BibleDesktop.bat and BibleDesktop.sh will do that if you place all the jars in the proper folder structure. Just copy the appropriate one to bd/jsword/lib/jars. Go into that folder and execute it. For the Mac, I had to set JSWORD_HOME=/usr (which is wrong, but gets Mac to get the right Java.)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">When you do run it from the command line, you’ll get all kinds of diagnostics which normally goes to the console.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Hope this helps.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">BTW, I use Eclipse for development on a Mac. Others use NetBeans. Some use Maven instead of ant for builds.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Let us know if you have any other questions.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">In Christ,</div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>DM Smith</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Oct 5, 2017, at 7:30 PM, Carrie Steggerda <<a href="mailto:carriesteggerda@gmail.com" class="">carriesteggerda@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class=""><div class=""><div class=""><div class=""><div class="">Hi,<br class=""><br class=""></div>Thank you for your response.

I was wondering what system you use to run your nightly builds, and if you pull the code you have and test it every night, (or exactly how often you run nightly builds). I am also looking at the interface for BibleDesktop, and am wondering if you provide the code for the graphical interface, and where I could find it. I'd be interested in experimenting with the GUI code.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Thanks!</div><div class="">Carrie Steggerda</div></div></div></div>
