To install Mirah and configure it to run with the SWT libraries:
- download the latest standalone zip install of Mirah from http://www.mirah.org
- extract it, say to ~/mirah
- download the 'SWT Binary and Source' zip for the latest release, and for your platform, from http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads
- copy the swt.jar to Mirah's lib directory, e.g. ~/mirah/lib
- edit the mirah shell script as follows:
- after the line with:
MIRAH_CP="$MIRAH_HOME"/lib/mirah-complete.jar
add:
SWT_CP="$MIRAH_HOME"/lib/swt.jar
- add SWT_CP to the runtime classpath, e.g. replace line:
"$JAVACMD" $JAVA_OPTS -jar "$MIRAH_CP" run "$@"
with:
"$JAVACMD" $JAVA_OPTS -jar "$MIRAH_CP" run -c "$SWT_CP" "$@" - if on MacOS, SWT needs to run on the first thread of the process, so an extra VM arg is needed. Define an SWT_OPTS var and add it to the end of the existing JAVA_OPTS= line, as follows:
SWT_OPTS="-XstartOnFirstThread"
JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS $JAVA_MEM $JAVA_MEM_MIN $JAVA_STACK $SWT_OPTS"
- make the same edits to the mirahc shell script
- if on Windows, adapt the above edits to the appropriate command shell syntax in the .bat files
- add Mirah's bin directory to your path, e.g.:
export PATH=$PATH:~/mirah/bin - you should now be able to compile and run the snippets
e.g. mirah Snippet1.mirah
