5 Seconds Tutorial

In the last months I received enough emails to convince me that it's still hard to get what Seppia is all about from the web-site.

hard to accept it... but so is life sometimes.

So this blog is going to tell you about Seppia with the shortest tutorial ever.
Here we go:

  1. Download the latest version seppia-1.0.1.zip
  2. Unzip it in c:\myFirstStepsWithSep
  3. bring up the Command-Prompt and cd to c:\myFirstStepsWithSep
  4. type: java -cp . StartUp
  5. see on your screen: Seppia successfully installed at URL file:/C:/myfirstStepsWithSep/
  6. be pleased with yourself.
  7. go to c:\myFirstStepsWithSep\...\StartUp.javascript
  8. open it up with wordpad or notepad
  9. change it to be
    function main()
    {
    java.lang.System.out.println("5 seconds tutorial was successful");
    }
  10. repeat points 3) and 4)
  11. see on your screen: 5 seconds tutorial was successful

That's it ... all done... you have just installed Seppia and written a very simple seppia application with it.

Now see if you can write more javascript code than the one you wrote at 9) and see if you can put some .jars file and access them...


okay 5 seconds have passed... time to play...


enjoy
