[CompStrm Wiki] On running AwSwingClient outside of NetBeans

[Bill la F. <laf...@ya...>]

Like AwServer, AwSwingClient can be run from or outside of NetBeans. (You can even run the server and multiple clients from within NetBeans. Its a great tool.)
   
  Here I'll only give a few pointers, as I've already covered how to run AwSwingClient connected to agilewiki.org.
   
  But first, a quick note about AwServer. When it is started successfully, it always displays the message 
      AgileWiki3 Server is ready.
   
  There are things that can cause problems. If for example you forgot to delete that AgileWiki.properties file, it will just hang because the rmiregistry is confused by the host name that was given. It will also hang if you try to run more than one copy of AwServer.
   
  OK, again in the top-level directory, AgileWiki3, there is a startSwingClient.bat file. This file contains the following:
      java -jar AwSwingClient\dist\AwSwingClient.jar

  Again, the directory containing the jar file must have a lib directory. The lib directory must contain both AwCommon.jar AND swing-layout-1.0.jar. (The swing layout jar file is provided by NetBeans.)
   
  When you start running the swing client, it prints one line:
      rmiName=Ark
   
  This is important. It tells you which server you are connecting to. When connecting to the server at agilewiki.org, it prints this line:
      rmiName=//agilewiki.org:1099/Ark
