Put all system files into a folder. Do not forget to include the folder helpFiles. If your system is MacX or a recent version of Windows, with a java machine installed, to run the application it should be enough a click on the .jar file. Otherwise try one of the following methods. MAC USERS: with JBindery the Class Name field should contain the name of the class InterpreteSQL.Main WIN USERS: create in the folder a file exec.bat which contains the commands java -classpath JRSFileName.jar InterpreteSQL.Main exit then modify, if necessary, the file C:\Autoexec.bat by adding the following row SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\\bin where is the folder name with JDK. Restart the system and then click on file exec.bat. WIN2000-XP: set the PATH environment variable in the 'Control Panel-System-Environment-System Variables' : 1) select the variable Path in the system Variables 2) add value ";c:\\bin" =========== The JRS version with transactions creates the folder JRS_directory, in the folder where there is the application. The JRS_directory contains: - the file $SYSDB$, where information about the system state is stored, - a folder for each database created, - the folder SYS_Log for the log (the folder can be deleted when JRS is not running) When JRS is not running, if the file $SYSDB$ is deleted then also the created DB folder must be deleted. Tables and databased should always be deleted from the system running. =========== The JRS version without transactions creates the folder JRS_directory, in the folder where there is the application. The JRS_directory contains: - the file $SYSDB$, where information about the system state is stored, - a folder for each database created. When JRS is not running, if the file $SYSDB$ is deleted then also the created database folders must be deleted. Tables and a database should always be deleted from the system running with an SQL command. =========== A database created with the version without transactions cannot be used with the version with transactions, and viceversa. The file LoadSportDB.txt contains the SQL commands to create a database. They can be loaded with the command Load in the menu File. Examples of queries are in the file SQLByExamples under the Help button in the system window. The JRS window provides a browser in the menu File to open a database and to explore the table definitions. The selection of a database with the name DB is equivalent to the command: connect BD; SQL commands, which terminate with a semicolumn, are written in the input window and to execute them must first be selected. Enjoy JRS!
