Instructions for Running Guiffy InstallAnywhere on any Java-enabled platform

  • After downloading, type
      java -jar guf123ins.jar
  • If that does not work, try
      java -classpath [path to]classes.zip:guf123ins.jar install
  • If that does not work either, on sh-like shells, try
      cd [to directory where guf123ins.jar is located]
      CLASSPATH=guf123ins.jar
      export CLASSPATH
      java install
  • Or for csh-like shells, try
      cd [to directory where guf123ins.jar is located]
      setenv CLASSPATH guf123ins.jar
      java install


To run Guiffy you need to add the jar files installed by Guiffy to your classpath. There are 5 jar files: Guiffy.jar, Guiffy3p.jar, GuiffyID.jar, GuiffyBD.jar and jh.jar. The command to run Guiffy is:
java com.guiffy.guiffy.GuiffySS com.guiffy.guiffy.GuiffyCLI [command line parameters]

Notes

  • You must already have Java 1.9 or higher installed.
  • Change to the directory where you downloaded guf123ins.jar to before running the installer
  • Your operating system may invoke Java in a different way. To start the installer, add guf123ins.jar to your CLASSPATH, then start the main class of the installer named install
