Launcher problem

[Joachim Wesner]

Hi,

sorry if this has been answered before, I could not find a viable solution also in the mailing list.

After quite some time of absence I would like to do some Imagej work. I updated my old installation
to the recent Windows 64 version and got a problem with my old ImageJ.cfg file which looks for example
like this:

.
jre\bin\javaw.exe
-Xmx338m -cp ij.jar;jython.jar;idl ij.ImageJ


This seems to be incompatible with the current launcher, which always gives me

"Without ij-launcher, '--ijcp' cannot be handled"

as soon as -cp has more than one argument.

The documentation I could find is not very helpful IMHO, in the source of imagej.exe I find there
are also -Dxxx options that seems not to be documented in imagej.exe --help!!??

What is the new syntax?

Thanx

I will take care of this later today.

As promised, I addressed this issue. You can download a Win32 launcher
from here:

        http://jenkins.imagej.net/job/ImageJ-launcher/label=Windows/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/target/nar/ij-launcher-2.0.3-SNAPSHOT-x86-Windows-gcc-executable/bin/x86-Windows-gcc/ij-launcher.exe

and a Win64 launcher from here:

        http://jenkins.imagej.net/job/ImageJ-launcher/label=Windows/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/target/nar/ij-launcher-2.0.3-SNAPSHOT-amd64-Windows-gcc-executable/bin/amd64-Windows-gcc/ij-launcher.exe

I will address some MacOSX-specific issues raised and partially fixed by
Curtis Rueden tomorrow and release a new version, latest on Friday. The
next automatic ImageJ 1.x release will have that version of the launcher.
These releases can be found here:

        http://jenkins.imagej.net/userContent/ij1-minor/

Micro-releases (i.e. with a letter *and* a number after the letter) can be
found here:

        http://jenkins.imagej.net/userContent/ij1-daily/

Ciao,
Johannes

P.S.: In case you are interested, these releases are generated
automatically by ImageJ's Jenkins server:

        http://jenkins.imagej.net/job/ImageJ1-releases/

P.P.S: In case you are interested in my fix to the launcher, it is
documented here:
