Graphical user interface for the Calimero client

Provides a bundled distribution of Calimero containing all required Java libraries to run the graphical client.

The user interface provides several of the client features of Calimero. An overview of supported features and access protocols is shown in the readme on Github.

Setup

• Download the .zip or .tar archive, and extract it to a local folder of your choice
• Make sure Java 8 is installed, you can check this, e.g., by executing java -version from the command line

Starting the client

In the folder bin, start

• calimero-gui.bat for Windows
• calimero-gui for Linux/Mac

(if that doesn't work, run the script from the command line).

On Linux with GTK3, you might want to run env SWT_GTK3=0 ./calimero-gui

SWT platform dependency

Important: The client is implemented using the Standard Widget Toolkit (SWT), which has platform-dependent libraries. During the first start, the client will try to download the version appropriate for your platform/JVM, i.e, 32/64 bit for Windows, Linux, or Mac.

If you don't want that or don't have access to the Internet, just manually copy the correct version into the lib folder and name it swt.jar.
