cmsWxCalc, ver. 7.0
Under construction...
Description
cmsWxCalc7 is the seventh in a series of "weather calculators" by this author. This version is written in Java, and currently consists only of the calculator libraries and their documentation.
System Requirements
- Java Runtime Environment 1.5+
The WxCalc library
Documentation: JavaDoc (downloadable ZIP file)
JAR file: JAR file
The author does not guarantee technical support of any kind (beyond the scope of this documentation and in-code comments) for this, or any other program - except as noted in the "About" menu item, if one is provided.
How to Use the Library
Eclipse IDE
When creating an application that uses wxCalc, click the "Libraries" tab on the "New Java Project" dialog. Click "Add External JARs..." and navigate to your saved copy of the WxCalc.jar file. You'll also need to point the project to the JavaDoc address (above) to use the JavaDocs (or download the ZIP file, extract it, and point to that). To do this, right-click the WxCalc.jar entry under "Referenced Libraries" in "Package Explorer", and select "Properties". The rest should be obvious.
NetBeans IDE
Right-click your project name in the "Projects" list, select "Properties", then "Libraries", and click "Add JAR/Folder". Navigate to your saved copy of WxCalc.jar and add it. Good luck with documentaion (JavaDoc). It's probably easy, but I haven't yet had a chance to do it.
Other
Good luck! :-)
