Download

At minimum, you need to download the Ejs bundle. If your system does not have Java installed, you will also have to download the installation package for the Java Runtime Environment.

 

 

  • The distribution file is a Windows compressed zip file, so you will need a tool to uncompress it.
    • For Windows, use any of the zipping/unzipping tools. Such as 7-zip, available at http://www.7-zip.org, or the classical Winzip tool, available at http://www.winzip.com.
    • For Linux/Unix, there are several tools, such as unzip and gunzip. These usually come with the distribution.
    • For MacOS, use the MacZip tool, available in several places.

 

  • Unpack the distribution. It will create a new folder/directory called "Ejs", and that folder/directory will contain: the file "EjsConsole.jar", and two folders/directories: "data" and "Simulations".
    • Do not alter any files within the folder/directory called "data", and do not change the name of the folder/directory called "data".
    • The folder/directory called "Simulation" will be the work area. Within the folder/directory "Simulation" is a folder/directory called "_library"; do not alter any files within the folder/directory called "_library", and do not change the name of the folder/directory called "_library".

 

  • If you need to install Java, go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/. The current version of Ejs requires JRE 1.5 or later. (Note that only the Java Runtime Environment [JRE] is needed; the Java Development Kit [JDK] contains JRE as well as other things which are not needed to run Ejs.)
    • For Windows, download the JRE installer; it is available in both online (smaller initial download size) and offline (self-contained) versions.
    • For Linux/Unix, download either the JRE installer or an rpm package which will do the installation.
    • MacOS X comes with a fully configured and ready-to-use Java Development Kit.
