2D & 3D Cross Plot Download Java Source to your PC

Work is partially supported by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) under Grant Number DE-FE0002056.

Download XPlot Directory with all the files necessary in compiling and running the 2D & 3D Cross Plot Application. You will first need to download a free Java Development Kit (JDK) from ORACLE Java, http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

Click on the "JDK" Download Button and follow directions. You will need to know what kind of computer operating system you are working on.

You will also need a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) on your PC to run the web app on your pc. Click on the "JRE" Download Button and follow directions. The same is true for the JRE, you will need to know what kind of computer operating system you are working on.

The 2D & 3D Cross Plot Application software is bundled by 2 methods as a ZIP file and as a JAR File. Both will create the XPlot directory with all the files and source to build the 2D & 3D Cross Plot Application. The Build.bat and Run.bat are designed for the Windows Environment, but it shows the procedure & source files for compiling and running the Java Application. If you use the script you will need to replace the calls "C:\jdk1.7.0_25\bin\" in the scripts to the JDK directory that you downloaded to your PC.

• Download XPlot.zip to your PC XPlot.zip, i.e. right mouse click the URL Link to the left and select "save as ..." and save it anywhere you like on your PC.

  Unzip the file. The program files are located under a directory called 'XPlot' so it is safe to unzip where ever you like.

• Download XPlot.jar to your PC XPlot.jar, i.e. right mouse click the URL Link to the left and select "save as ..." and save it anywhere you like on your PC.

  Extract the JAR file by the following command
  
  C:\jdk1.7.0_25\bin\jar xf XPlot.jar

  The program files are located under a directory called 'XPlot' so it is safe to extract the jar where ever you like.

Directory Structure of XPlot

/data - directory contains the lookup XML (Extensible Markup Language) files necessary for running the Application.
/lib - directory holds the JAR File.
/src - directory 2D & 3D Cross Plot Source Files
/images - directory 2D & 3D Cross Plot images

   Build.bat - Windows Batch file for compiling the 2D & 3D Cross Plot Application.
   Run2D.bat - Windows Batch file for running the 2D Cross Plot Application
   Run3D.bat - Windows Batch file for running the 3D Cross Plot Application
   Manifest_XPlot.txt - A required file needed in the JAR file to meet ORACLE-Java security requirements.
   XPlot.txt - Contents of the 2D & 3D Cross Plot JAR File.
   HELP-GEMINI_Tools-2D_Cross_Plot.pdf - 2D Cross Plot Help PDF (Portable Document Format) file.
   HELP-GEMINI_Tools-3D_Cross_Plot.pdf - 3D Cross Plot Help PDF (Portable Document Format) file.

REMEMBER to replace the "C:\jdk1.7.0_25\bin\" with the JDK directory path you downloaded to your PC in the Build.bat and Run.bat files.

Build.bat

This file will compile the 2D & 3D Cross Plot Java Source code. In a Command Prompt window enter: Build > temp.txt. This will run the Build script and send all the steps to the temp.txt file. If any errors show you will be able to see it and open the temp.txt to find the error.

• Create Directory Structure: The script first creates the new source directory structure in the main directory.
• Copy "src" directory to the new source directory structure: The script copies the source files from the "src" directory to the new source directory structure. It doesn't move the files it makes a copy of the source directory only for the purpose of compiling the code.
• Compile Source: The script compiles the 2D & 3D Cross Plot, with the following call,
  
  C:\jdk1.7.0_25\bin\javac -Xlint:deprecation XPlot.java

• Remove the Java Source Files: The script deletes all the java source files from created directory structure. The Java source is no longer necessary only the class files need to remain.
• Remove the JAR Contents text file: The XPlot.txt, which shows the contents of the XPlot JAR file is deleted.

• Build the JAR File: The 2D & 3D Cross Plot Class Files are loaded into the XPlot.jar File with the following call,
  
  C:\jdk1.7.0_25\bin\jar cvfm XPlot.jar Manifest_XPlot.txt *.class cmn gui math gemini kgs las las3 dst lith horizon mask parse plot dataPlot iqstrat brine rock ss pfeffer util xml images data

• Create a JAR Content Text File: The following call creates the XPlot.txt file with the contents of the XPlot.jar file,
  
  C:\jdk1.7.0_25\bin\jar tvf XPlot.jar > XPlot.txt

• Move JAR File to "lib" Directory: The JAR file is moved to the "lib" directory,
  
  MOVE XPlot.jar lib

• Remove Class Files: The contents of the created directory structures are deleted.
• Remove Directory Structure: The created directory structures are removed.

Only the contents of the 2D & 3D Cross Plot JAR file, "XPlot.txt" is left.

Run.bat

This file will run the 2D or 3D Cross Plot Application on your PC. Just double click on the 'Run2D.bat' or 'Run2D.bat' scripts respectively.

There are 2 PDF Help files: HELP-GEMINI_Tools-2D_Cross_Plot.pdf and HELP-GEMINI_Tools-3D_Cross_Plot.pdf
