Parameters:

args - Not currently used.

initUtilityFtns

public void initUtilityFtns(javax.swing.JFrame rootFrame)

Set up some common utility ftns for logging and error reporting.

start

runTests

public static void runTests()

checkJavaEnvironment

public static boolean checkJavaEnvironment()

Checks that the java and system environment is adequate to run in.

checkFileEnvironment

public static boolean checkFileEnvironment()

Checks that the file directories are valid, and contain any vital files.

getProperty

Convenience function to access both the System property list, or failing that the internal JXplorer properties list.

getProperty

public static java.lang.String getProperty(java.lang.String key,
                                           java.lang.String defaultValue)

Convenience function to access the internal JXplorer properties list.

getMyProperties

public static java.util.Properties getMyProperties()

Sometimes it is more convenient to simply pass the whole properties hash to a subordinate class, rather than using the get...() methods

setProperty

public static void setProperty(java.lang.String key,
                               java.lang.String value)

sets a property in the dxserver property list.

public void checkPropertyDependantActions(java.lang.String key,
                                          java.lang.String value)

This is triggered when a global property changes for some reason, and takes any appropriate action.

setDefaultProperty

public static java.lang.String setDefaultProperty(java.lang.String key,
                                                  java.lang.String value)

Sets the default values for properties. This is overridden if the property appears in the system properties list or config text file. (The system properties list always takes priority.)

Parameters:

key - the unique key of the property.

value - the actual value to set.

Returns:

the final value of the property.

getFileURL

Parameters:

fileDir - the file directory to reproduce as a url

Returns:

the converted file-as-url

setProperties

See Also:

java.awt.event.JXplorerListener, java.awt.Button#removeJXplorerListener

removeJXplorerListener

public void removeJXplorerListener(JXplorerListener l)

Removes the specified JXplorer listener so that it no longer receives JXplorer events from this button. JXplorer events occur when a user presses or releases the mouse over this button. If l is null, no exception is thrown and no JXplorer is performed.

showSplashScreen

public void showSplashScreen(javax.swing.JWindow splash)

Displays a splash screen with a thin black border in the center of the screen.

setupResourceFiles

public void setupResourceFiles()

A variety of plugin possibilities exist in JXplorer. To make distribution easier, it is possible to package up class files, as well as image/text/etc. files, and use a custom resource loader to access these zipped/jarred resources. This sets it all up, as well as adding any custom security providers...

setupSecurityProviders

protected void setupSecurityProviders()

addSecurityProvider

protected void addSecurityProvider(java.lang.String providerName)

Allows extra security providers to be manually added.

Parameters:

providerName - the class name of the security provider to add (e.g. something like 'sun.security.provider.Sun')

isLinux

public static boolean isLinux()

Test for Linux (usually to disable features that appear to be more than usually broken on that platform - e.g. JAVA L&F).

Returns:

true if Linux OS, false otherwise.
