Re: ADViewer, EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer.java compilation

Hi Tomasz,

I am a Java novice, but I got the compilation to almost work by running in the ImageJplugins/EPICS_areaDetector directory:

corvette:ImageJ/plugins/EPICS_areaDetector>java -cp jca-2.4.5.jar:epics-ntypes-0.3.5.jar:epics-pvaccess-5.1.5.jar:epics-pvdata-6.1.5.jar:epics-pvaclient-4.3.2.jar:epics-util-1.0.3.jar:../../ij.jar EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer.java

EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer.java:112: error: cannot find symbol

    private NTNDCodec ntndCodec = null;

            ^

  symbol:   class NTNDCodec

  location: class EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer

EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer.java:408: error: cannot find symbol

                ntndCodec = new NTNDCodec();

                                ^

  symbol:   class NTNDCodec

  location: class EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer

2 errors

error: compilation failed

It is only complaining that it can't find NTNDCodec.  That is also provide as source code, NTNDCodec.java.  When I try to compile that I get this error:

corvette:ImageJ/plugins/EPICS_areaDetector>java -cp jca-2.4.5.jar:epics-ntypes-0.3.5.jar:epics-pvaccess-5.1.5.jar:epics-pvdata-6.1.5.jar:epics-pvaclient-4.3.2.jar:epics-util-1.0.3.jar:../../ij.jar NTNDCodec.java

NTNDCodec.java:29: error: package com.sun.jna does not exist

import com.sun.jna.NativeLong;

I don't remember how to fix that, but it is probably straightforward.

Subject: ADViewer, EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer.java compilation

 

Hi,

 

I want to compile EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer.java from the command line. I need it for my script which will automatize all the installation process of the areaDetector.

For the EPICS_AD_Viewer.java I simply used this command:

javac -cp ~/.imagej/plugins/jca-2.4.5.jar:/usr/share/java/ij.jar  ~/.imagej/plugins/EPICS_AD_Viewer.java

and plugin appears in imageJ.

 

I tried to do the same with NTNDA_Viewer by:

javac -cp ~/.imagej/plugins/jca-2.4.5.jar:/usr/share/java/ij.jar  ~/.imagej/plugins/EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer.java

but this doesn’t work. It complains for missing packages: pvaClient, pvdata etc.

I tried to put all of them in the command line but I did not succeed.

Can somebody help me with compilation of it?

BTW it works when I compile it from imageJ GUI but I want to do it from the command line.
