jSoar 4.0 Release #125

Closed mldavis99 closed 4 years ago

mldavis99 commented 4 years ago

The jSoar 4.0 Release Notes say that the new release is available on Maven Central. Not being a Java developer, can you tell me how to get the release and how to install it on Windows 10?

If you just want to download it and run it (e.g., to play around), you can get it from the Releases tab on github. The thing you want in this case is jsoar-debugger-4.0.0-uber.jar -- this is a standalone jar you can just run (e.g., by double-clicking) and it will open the debugger with a running Soar instance inside.

If you want to actually develop code that uses jSoar, then I recommend setting up a project that uses a dependency manager. There are many, but the most common for java are Maven and Gradle. Note that they both work with maven central. Most IDEs (e.g., Eclipse, Intellij, etc.) will have support for dependency tools like this. The README shows what to put in your maven pom or .gradle file (also on the main jsoar github page.

Does that help?

Thank you, got the jsoar-debugger-4.0.0-uber.jar, however, the last version I was able to run on Windows 10 was 0.14.3 using the scripts in the bin directory. How do I do this with the ...uber.jar? OOPs got it: java -jar jsoar-debugger-4.0.0-uber.jar . Maybe I should stick to languages I actually know. But I am actually learning Soar right now... Thank you very much, mike
