You can find the source code for the order processor example https://github.com/OpenHFT/Chronicle-Queue-Demo/tree/master/order-processor[here].
== Downloading and Running Sample Programs
If you're running Windows, you will need to install the git client and open-ssh Cygwin, https://cygwin.com/install.html[here], with a guide showing installation and packages http://www.mcclean-cooper.com/valentino/cygwin_install/[here].
This allows you to install Linux packages that aren't already on Windows.
When this asks you which packages you want to install, search for and add git.
This is under Development and you need to click skip so it says to install.

Open IntelliJ or your favorite https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_development_environment[Integrated Development Environment (IDE)]. If you haven't installed an IDE, we recommend https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/#section=windows[IntelliJ], which we'll use for this tutorial.
In IntelliJ, select Get from VCS to clone the Chronicle Queue Sample code.
