1. Deployment via jars and Webstart

2. How do we distribute our application? Lab says you need to submit CD Lab says you need to submit CD Limitations of CD Limitations of CD fixed size fixed size classes are fixed classes are fixed java vm requirement fixed java vm requirement fixed Granny can't run it in DesMoine Granny can't run it in DesMoine Maybe Granny likes to save money and use the library computer Maybe Granny likes to save money and use the library computer

3. (JAR) Java ARchive files based on pkzip (rename from boo.jar to boo.zip and it becomes a zip file) based on pkzip (rename from boo.jar to boo.zip and it becomes a zip file) holds: holds: class files class files information about the contained files information about the contained files can hold other stuff, like gifs! can hold other stuff, like gifs! Best of all Best of all can be made executable can be made executable application runs out of the jar file application runs out of the jar file don't have to unjar (unpack) it don't have to unjar (unpack) it

4. Example: SimpleGui.jar I have a project, called Gift I have a project, called Gift c:\Gift is the directory c:\Gift is the directory I have a package, called cs201 I have a package, called cs201 c:\Gift\cs201 is the directory containing: c:\Gift\cs201 is the directory containing: SimpleGUI.java SimpleGUI.java SimpleGUI.class SimpleGUI.class Olsson001.gif Olsson001.gif

5. Jar options (complete list at end of slides) jar –cf SimpleGUI.jar cs201 jar –cf SimpleGUI.jar cs201 create create jar –xf SimpleGUI.jar jar –xf SimpleGUI.jar extract extract jar –tf SimpleGUI.jar jar –tf SimpleGUI.jar list contents list contents

6. Make it executable See slides at end See slides at end need to include a file (manifest) that tells java where the main() method is need to include a file (manifest) that tells java where the main() method is jar –cvmf manifest.txt SimpleGUI.jar cs201 jar –cvmf manifest.txt SimpleGUI.jar cs201 m in –cvmf means, include the manifest file (manifest.txt) in the jar m in –cvmf means, include the manifest file (manifest.txt) in the jar

7. How to run the jar file double-click it double-click it or or java –jar SimpleGUI.jar java –jar SimpleGUI.jar

8. Trust Java security based on the Sandbox Java security based on the Sandbox we'll let you have limited access to system resources we'll let you have limited access to system resources you cannot read or write to local disk you cannot read or write to local disk you (usually) only read from the website from which you are downloaded you (usually) only read from the website from which you are downloaded can't attack other sites, e.g. can't attack other sites, e.g.

9. Increased security Signing a jar file Signing a jar file signifies who created it signifies who created it somewhat informal somewhat informal you can spend $$ for a certificate you can spend $$ for a certificate increased trust among your customers increased trust among your customers

10. Signing a jar Full details at end of slides Full details at end of slides 1. Create a key file 2. Add your keys to the file 3. Sign the jar file with your key 4. Only you can sign it this way 5. For greater trust, buy a certificate $$

11. What happens when you execute a jar file? 1. java opens the jar file and looks in a directory called META-INF 2. it finds the file MANIFEST.MF this was created from your manifest.txt file this was created from your manifest.txt file 3. looks to see where the main() method is Main-Class: cs201.SimpleGUI Main-Class: cs201.SimpleGUI knows to look in the cs201 package directory (in the jar file) knows to look in the cs201 package directory (in the jar file) look for the class SimpleGUI look for the class SimpleGUI call the main() method inside of SimpleGUI call the main() method inside of SimpleGUI

12. We can also include images, sounds, in the jar file Details shown at end: Details shown at end: 1. put the file in your package 2. use a URL to access the file

13. WebStart - STDGOADK Your app lives on the web Your app lives on the web You download it to your machine You download it to your machine It executes on your machine It executes on your machine Makes sure your version is up to date Makes sure your version is up to date can fetch updates can fetch updates get fetch newer versions of the runtime system, etc. get fetch newer versions of the runtime system, etc.

14. Web Start overview create executable jar file create executable jar file sign it sign it create a JNLP file create a JNLP file create an html file create an html file put all this on a website put all this on a website

15. JNLP – java network launching protocol web-centric web-centric "codebase" is on web, not users disk "codebase" is on web, not users disk something like running: something like running: java –classpath http://www.people.virginia.edu/~cwm2n/SimpleG UI.jar cs201.SimpleGui java –classpath http://www.people.virginia.edu/~cwm2n/SimpleG UI.jar cs201.SimpleGui http://www.people.virginia.edu/~cwm2n/SimpleG UI.jar http://www.people.virginia.edu/~cwm2n/SimpleG UI.jar uses a JNLP file to guide the fetch and run uses a JNLP file to guide the fetch and run provides secure running (unless your user gives permission) provides secure running (unless your user gives permission)

16. JNLP file xml – oh boy xml – oh boy specifies jar file specifies jar file the java runtime the java runtime any optional packages any optional packages system properties system properties URLs pointing to any resources (images, sounds, etc) URLs pointing to any resources (images, sounds, etc) name of html file pointing to us name of html file pointing to us our name (i.e., SimpleGUI.jnlp) our name (i.e., SimpleGUI.jnlp)

17. Need a web page, too Either put into your index.html or something as simple as: Simple GUI WebStart Application Simple GUI WebStart Application</a> Put into the file reference by the jnlp file

18. put all of this on a web page www.people.virginia.edu/~cwm2n www.people.virginia.edu/~cwm2n www.people.virginia.edu/~cwm2n i.e., in the public_html directory of your home directory file share i.e., in the public_html directory of your home directory file share SimpleGUI.jar SimpleGUI.jar SimpleGUI.jnlp SimpleGUI.jnlp index.html index.html

34. How to access gifs, sounds in the jar file Suppose is want to open a file in a method of the class SimpleGUI Suppose is want to open a file in a method of the class SimpleGUI ImageIcon img= new ImageIcon("Olsson001.gif"); ImageIcon img= new ImageIcon("Olsson001.gif"); Since jar file is running from the c:\Gift directory, might not find the.gif file Since jar file is running from the c:\Gift directory, might not find the.gif file Do we put Olsson001.gif in c:\Gift Do we put Olsson001.gif in c:\Gift if we do, and jar it up, this still does not work since Olsson001.gif is not in the c:\Gift directory if we do, and jar it up, this still does not work since Olsson001.gif is not in the c:\Gift directory

35. How to access gifs, sounds in the jar file Package to the rescue! Package to the rescue! put Olsson001.gif in cs201 package directory put Olsson001.gif in cs201 package directory change statement to: change statement to: ImageIcon img= new ImageIcon("cs201/Olsson001.gif"); ImageIcon img= new ImageIcon("cs201/Olsson001.gif"); Now, java knows to look in the package cs201 inside the jar file Now, java knows to look in the package cs201 inside the jar file Works! Works!

36. How to access gifs, sounds in the jar file URL to the rescue! URL to the rescue! keep Olsson001.gif in cs201 package directory keep Olsson001.gif in cs201 package directory change statements to: change statements to: URL url = SimpleGUI.class.getResource("Olsson001.gif"); URL url = SimpleGUI.class.getResource("Olsson001.gif"); Image img= Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(url); Image img= Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(url); need import java.net.*; need import java.net.*; Now, java knows to look in the package cs201 inside the jar file Now, java knows to look in the package cs201 inside the jar file Works! Works!
