Installing JAS3

Java Analysis Workstation 3 (JAS3) is used for manipulating AIDA histograms, viewing event displays, and looking at basic information contained in LCIO files.

Get the latest distribution from the download area, unpack it, and then run the jas3 script in the resultant jas-assembly directory to open it.

For instance, these commands will install and open the 3.1.0 release of JAS3.

wget http://java.freehep.org/maven2/org/freehep/jas-assembly/3.1.0/jas-assembly-3.1.0-distribution.tar.gz
tar -zxvf jas-assembly-3.1.0-distribution.tar.gz
./jas-assembly-3.1.0/jas3

JAS3 on OSX

On OSX you may need to execute export AWT_TOOLKIT=XToolkit in your environment for the GUI to work correctly.  This command can be put into your Bash shell profile to run every time you login.

Next a set of plugins needs to be installed.  Open View > Plugin Manager and make the following selections:

In order for JAS3 to load the HPS jar files, the plugin module should be installed.

svn co svn://svn.freehep.org/hps/java/trunk/plugin hps-plugin
cd hps-plugin
mvn install

When you have made local changes to HPS projects, the plugin module should be re-installed so that JAS3 picks up the changes.
