Re: [Aglets-users] Running my own Aglet

[Thomas H. <max...@us...>]

The following is just my experience with aglets and should be considered
something that may work, but not an authoritative answer. It would be
really nice if everybody reading this could reply and write how you would
LIKE to be able to launch aglets.If you don't have an idea about how to
implement it, just describe the experience you would like to have.

Aglets are launched by having the Tahiti aglets server "pick them up" from
the hard disk. The easiest way I know to get an aglet up and running is the
following. Before you start Tahiti, add the directory containing your
aglet's packages to the CLASSPATH environment variable. After you start
Tahiti, you launch your aglets by pressing the "Create" toolbar button,
then providing the full class name of your aglet in the "Code Base" field
and pressing the "Create" button of the dialog.

An optimisation is to "bookmark" the "Code Base" value to the list of
"Saved Aglets" by clicking the "Add to the list" button. It will save it in
a persistent way, such that the "bookmark" will be available next time you
want to launch an instance of that aglet and even next time you run Tahiti.

Another optimisation, on by default, is to have the checkbox "Reload the
agent as new" checked. Like that, every time you launch an instance of that
aglet, it will take the classes from disk, not from its cache. The
advantage is that like that you can develop and rebuild the aglet and
launch the new version without having to restart Tahiti.
