Manually setting up Squish for Java 6.0.x, 64-bit on Linux¶

Sometimes it is required to set up Squish without using its setup program. The following instructions explain how to do this for Squish for Java 6.0.x.

Step 1 - Create a file called .squish-3-license in the home directory of the user (typically %USERPROFILE% on Windows, and $HOME on Unix) and insert the Squish license key into it.

Step 2 - Delete <SQUISH_DIR>/bin/.not_configured

Step 3 - Generate <SQUISH_DIR>/lib/squishrt.jar:

java -classpath "<SQUISH_DIR>/lib/squishjava.jar:<SQUISH_DIR>/lib/bcel.jar" "com.froglogic.squish.awt.FixMethod" "<JAVA_DIR>/lib/rt.jar:<SQUISH_DIR>/lib/squishjava.jar" "<SQUISH_DIR>/lib/squishrt.jar"

Step 4 - Create entry "JavaHooking" in <SQUISH_CONFIG>/ver1/server.ini

bin/squishserver --config setJavaHookMethod java-options

Step 5 - Create entry JavaVM in <SQUISH_CONFIG>/ver1/server.ini

bin/squishserver --config setJavaVM "<JAVA_DIR>/bin/java"

Step 6 - Create entry JavaVersion in <SQUISH_CONFIG>/ver1/server.ini

bin/squishserver --config setJavaVersion "<JAVA_VERSION_STRING>"

(<JAVA_VERSION_STRING> stands for the version string output by "java -version" of the JRE executing the application, for example "1.8.0_71" (without double quotes).)

Step 7 - Create entry JavaWebStart in <SQUISH_CONFIG>/ver1/server.ini

bin/squishserver --config setJavaWebStart "<JAVA_DIR>/bin/java"

Step 8 - Create entry LibJVM in <SQUISH_CONFIG>/ver1/server.ini

bin/squishserver --config setLibJVM "<JAVA_DIR>/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so"

Manually setting up Squish for Java 6.0.x on Windows¶

Sometimes it is required to set up Squish without using its setup program. The following instructions explain how to do this for Squish for Java 6.0.x.

Step 1 - Create a file called .squish-3-license in the home directory of the user (typically %USERPROFILE% on Windows, and $HOME on Unix) and insert the Squish license key into it.

Step 2 - Delete <SQUISH_DIR>\bin\.not_configured

Step 3 - Generate <SQUISH_DIR>\lib\squishrt.jar:

java -classpath "<SQUISH_DIR>\lib\squishjava.jar;<SQUISH_DIR>\lib\bcel.jar" "com.froglogic.squish.awt.FixMethod" "<JAVA_DIR>\lib\rt.jar;<SQUISH_DIR>\lib\squishjava.jar" "<SQUISH_DIR>\lib\squishrt.jar"

Step 4 - Create entry "JavaHooking" in <SQUISH_CONFIG>\ver1\server.ini

bin\squishserver --config setJavaHookMethod java-options

Step 5 - Create entry JavaVM in <SQUISH_CONFIG>\ver1\server.ini

bin\squishserver --config setJavaVM "<JAVA_DIR>\bin\javaw.exe"

Step 6 - Create entry JavaVersion in <SQUISH_CONFIG>/ver1/server.ini

bin\squishserver --config setJavaVersion "<JAVA_VERSION_STRING>"

(<JAVA_VERSION_STRING> stands for the version string output by "java -version" of the JRE executing the application, for example "1.8.0_71" (without double quotes).)

Step 7 - Create entry JavaWebStart in <SQUISH_CONFIG>\ver1\server.ini

bin\squishserver --config setJavaWebStart "<JAVA_DIR>\bin\javaws.exe"

Step 8 - Create entry LibJVM in <SQUISH_CONFIG>\ver1\server.ini

If <JAVA_DIR>\bin\client\jvm.dll exists:

bin\squishserver --config setLibJVM "<JAVA_DIR>\bin\client\jvm.dll"

If <JAVA_DIR>\bin\client\jvm.dll does not exist, but <JAVA_DIR>\bin\server\jvm.dll exists:

bin\squishserver --config setLibJVM "<JAVA_DIR>\bin\server\jvm.dll"

Here is a batch file that can be put into the Squish folder and which performs the above steps. Prior to use it must be edited to have proper values for ARG_JAVA_DIR and ARG_JAVA_VERSION_STRING: setup-squish-java.bat
