This directory contains example programs that show how the GNU Classpath
library can be used.

Each example has its own package under gnu.classpath.examples and has a
class Demo which contains a main() method to run that particular example.

The examples can be compiled and run with gcj as follows:

  gcj -o swingdemo --main=gnu.classpath.examples.swing.Demo \
      gnu/classpath/examples/swing/Demo.java \
      gnu/classpath/examples/swing/GNULookAndFeel.java
  ./swingdemo

Or with a traditional byte code interpreter like:

  gcj -C gnu/classpath/examples/awt/Demo.java
  gij gnu.classpath.examples.awt.Demo

The installation also comes with an examples.zip archive that contains
all needed resources and compiled byte code class files that can be
run as follows:

  kaffe -classpath examples.zip gnu.classpath.examples.awt.Demo
  kaffe -classpath examples.zip gnu.classpath.examples.swing.Demo

The jawt Demo needs some extra support library that currently needs to be
build by hand.  The following assumes GNU Classpath was installed in
/usr/local/classpath, if you installed it somewhere else then adjust the
-I and -L paths accordingly. The included Makefile.jawt is setup this way.

You can invoke it with:

	make -f Makefile.jawt

Or you can compile by hand as follows:

  gcj -C gnu/classpath/examples/jawt/DemoJAWT.java
  gcjh -jni gnu.classpath.examples.jawt.DemoJAWT -o DemoJAWT.h
  gcc -g -O0 -Wall -I. -I/usr/X11R6/include -L. -L/usr/X11R6/lib \
    -I/usr/local/classpath/include -L/usr/local/classpath/lib/classpath \
    -lX11 -ljawtgnu -shared -o libDemoJAWT.so \
    gnu/classpath/examples/jawt/DemoJAWT.c

You can then run the example as follows:

  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:/usr/local/classpath/lib/classpath
  jamvm gnu.classpath.examples.jawt.DemoJAWT

The java2d benchmarking demos include a GTK widget to measure the native
speed of some basic java2d options, without the JNI overhead.

You can invoke it with:

	make -f Makefile.java2d

Or you can compile by hand as follows:

  gcc -g -O0 -Wall -I./gnu/classpath/examples/java2d \
    -o cairobench gnu/classpath/examples/java2d/bench.c \
    `pkg-config --libs --cflags gtk+-2.0`

You can then run the example as follows:

  ./cairobench
