The java Sub-directory

The DL_POLY_2 Java Graphical User Interface (GUI) is based on the Java language developed by Sun. The Java source code for this GUI is to be found in this sub-directory, along with a few FORTRAN sub-sub-directories which contain some additional capabilities accessible from the GUI. These sources are complete and sufficient to create a working GUI, provided the user has installed the Java Development Kit, (1.3 or above) which is available free from Sun at

http://java.sun.com.

The GUI, once compiled, may be executed on any machine where Java is installed, though note the FORTRAN components will need to be recompiled if the machine is changed. (See [9].)
