Component Conversion Utility (CCU)

Requirements
  • JRE 5.0+
  • 16 MB Memory
  • 2 MB Hard Drive Space
Instructions

An installer is provided for use with Windows (setup.exe). In other operating systems, simply execute:
java -cp [jar file location] com.jshift.ccu.WorkAreaController
from the command line. Replace [file location] with the path of the downloaded JAR file, of course. Also, be sure to execute java.exe from within the directory you unzipped to (so that the CCU can locate the 'bin' directory). If you plan on creating Java classes that extend existing custom classes, make sure that the superclasses are included in your classpath as well:
java -cp [jar file location];%CLASSPATH% com.jshift.ccu.WorkAreaController
A 5.0+ version of java.exe should be contained in the PATH environment variable. Note that some applications can surreptitiously add lesser runtime environments to the path: .;D:\Perl\bin\;C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.3.1\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\bin
In this case, you'll need to either explicitly reference the executable or update your path. Lastly, make sure that your JDBC drivers are included in the classpath if you wish to import to or export from a database.
