Re: Package available (was Re: Micro Manager)




> What do you mean with "main class"?  MMCoreJ.jar contains the Micro-Manager Core (written in C++) "translated" to Java by Swig.  It is not an application in itself, you could think about it as a library.  The Micro-Manager user interface is contained in MMJ_.jar.

Here is what get when I try to run the main jar file:

$ java -jar /usr/share/java/MMCoreJ.jar
Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from
/usr/share/java/MMCoreJ.jar

Does this mean anything to you ?

Technically, micromanager is a plugin from imagej. hence the main class is within imagej. That said, micromanager has always been distributed with imagej, and a starter that brings up the plugin right away. This is somewhat annoying since there are already at least 3 other distributions of imagej floating around! And it clashes heavily with how things are done on debian, where duplicated binaries are pretty much a death sin.

But that's how things are, and my previous debian packaging attempts have treated it as a plugin for the imagej plugin, harmonizing with FIJI as much as possible. In the future, I hope one of these imagej debian packages will finally disappear, and I would prefer it to be the debian med imagej. It simply cannot compete with FIJI in terms of support.
