-
- Quick Start
- ===========
-
- 1.
- copy provided sample configuration files (*.cnf) from samples/ into
- main program directory with .class files.
-
- 2.
- Edit scache.cnf and gc.cnf with ANY ASCII editor. Read comments inside.
- If you don't understand what it does, doesn't change it.
-
- 3.
- You NEED to get something, which can run Java 1.1 bytecodes, for
- example JRE1.1, JDK1.1, Kaffe, Japhar, ...
-
- 4.
- run it in program directory (contains *.class files)
-
- If you have missconfigured OS/2 box run `ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1` first.
-
- on JDK/JRE 1.1:
- via JDK: java -ms1m scache
- via JRE: jre -ms1m -cp . scache
-
- to run on JDK 1.2 aka "JAVA 2 platform" is recommended to run it
- via "oldjava" tool, so type oldjava instead of java.
-
- How to run garbage collection:
- ==============================
- Garbage collector DON'T RUN when specified cache size is reached. You
- must run it by hand. So, use some cron-like program for this task.
-
- via JDK: java -ms1m scache -gc
- via JRE: jre -ms1m -cp . scache -gc
-
- Note: there are also other command line switches - use
- java scache -help to see it.
