README - UiEngine - 04/29/99

This exe is a self-extracting exe for installing the UI Engine client for OS/2.
You would install this on your client machines, and also on your
development machine so that you can test your applications as you develop.

To install on a client machine:

1) Create a directory anywhere on your client machine.

2) Copy the UlcOUiE.exe to this directory

3) Execute as UlcOUiE /dir  (The /dir is required or it will unzip incorrectly):
      
4) You may then delete the UlcOUiE.exe from your client, it is no longer needed
    except to do re-installs.

5) To execute the UiEngine, you can create a Program icon on your desktop and set:
      Path and Filename: yourdirectory\UIEngine\bin\ulcui.exe
      WorkingDirectory: yourdirectory\UIEngine\bin

The default is setup to use your installed version of the Java Runtime and Swing.
If you want it to use a different version of the Java Runtime and Swing than your
default, then you can set an environment variable to point to this location.

      Note: Do not have a trailing backslash on these directory names.

      Set UlcJRERoot=the-root-directory-of-your-java
      Set UlcSwingHome=directory-where-swingall.jar-is-located


      It is assumed that the jre will be in the bin subdirectory under this root directory,
      and the classes files will be in the lib subdirectory under this root.

To install on your development machine:

1) Create a x:\vast\ulc directory    (where x:\vast is the location of your VisualAge Smalltalk Installation).
2) Copy the ULCOUie.exe program to this new directory
3) Follow from step3 in the above client instructions.
    It should be extracted there for samples to work correctly, however if it is not installed here,
    then you can set the following environment variable so that the HttpServer example can find
    the uiengine:

     Set ulcuihome=yourdirectory\UIEngine
