Windows installers to simplify the process #32

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
While it is easy to build installers for JES, there are some problems with
doing this on Vista.  Vista prohibits write access to the program files
directory, and JES crashes because jython is unable to write to the cache
directory.  To make this work, we'll have to figure out how to point the
cache directory elsewhere on Vista.

I've edited the necessary files in the jython directory and the startup scripts
(JES.bat/sh) to move the location of the cache dir.  I've verified that windows
installers will now work on both vista and xp.  And I've documented the build 
process
now through scripts and instructions in the Release Build Instructions folder.
