The line-endings issue that 5.010 addresses doesn't effect those other platforms. For Mac OS X, it fixes the About menu item wierdness (that it didn't say "JES"). For LInux, it was compiled on MacOS X, so should fix line endings issues. Only the Windows version is significantly effected.įor Linux and Mac OS X, use the JES 5.011 release. I don't consider this a viable approach for beginning students, unless you know that they only have Java 8 installed. That was enough to make the automatic highest version search bypass Java 10 and pick Java 8 instead. Following a tip in this Stack Overflow discussion: I renamed the file /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-10.0.1.jdk/Contents/ist to (I had to do it with sudo and enter my system password.). I could run jes.sh from a Terminal after changing JAVA_HOME ("export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.8)", but just changing JAVA_HOME isn't enough to allow it to run by double-clicking on either jes.sh or the JES 6.0 Mac.app icon. It does not work with Java 10, for security reasons. I have both Java 8 and Java 10 on this machine, and the Mac will automatically choose the most recent one unless told otherwise. After that, you can just double-click the jes.sh file.īrian Howard notes a complication if you try to have more version of Java on your MacOS with JES:
After that, you can just double-click the JES application.įor MacOS Catalina (and after), right-click on the jes.sh file and choose "Open", then tell it that you really do want to open this downloaded program. Thanks to Brian Howard and Michael Stewart for helping to figure this out.įor all MacOS, unzip the folder and put the whole thing (no folder name changes, please) inside /Applications.įor pre-Catalina, right-click on the JES application and choose "Open", then tell it that you really do want to open this downloaded program.
You will need to have Java 8 installed to run JES. The Mac version is a little more complicated to run than usual. JES 6.0 updates Jython to 2.7beta, uses the latest version of JMusic (from ), fixes many bugs, will run with Java 8, and creates a new facility to generate pictures from a collection of pixels and sounds from a collection of samples. Benjamin Shapiro for helping us with many technical questions. This version was brought to completion by Nigel Charleston, based on the beta work of Veronica Day and Audrey Zhang (see discussion at this blog post ). This is likely the final version of JES, unless a Jython 3.0 is developed.
