[zeromq-dev] Question on connecting a C++ model to a Java model via Python uzing ZeroMQ

[Sara Rimer]

Ok, so I ran the
mvn test
and it everything was okay. I was originally trying to rebuild some basic
ZeroMQ programs using Java just to make sure it worked (my preferred
language is Python). But while the programs would compile, they wouldn't
run. That is when I went back to looking for tutorials and came across one
that used local_lat as an example, which thanks to your advice I abandoned
trying it.

Thus, I retried building hwClient.java and hwServer.java and I finally got
them to work! My issue was pointing to the correct classpaths (which I am
not quite used to doing in Java), and also adding in this (
-Djava.library.path=/usr/local/lib), but I don't really understand what the
"-Djava" command does).

Anyway, I had to add the following paths so my command looked like this:

java -cp
./:/usr/local/share/java/zmq.jar:/home/sara/Applications/zeromq/jzmq/jzmq-jni/src/main/c++/zmq.jar
-Djava.library.path=/usr/local/lib hwClient

The Java program that I have built that I am trying to implement ZeroMQ
with I have built within Eclipse. So I am not really used to working with
Java via the terminal. Thus, I was wondering how I can I run the command
above via Eclipse? That is, if you are familiar with Eclipse, how to I add
these classpaths?
-cp
./:/usr/local/share/java/zmq.jar:/home/sara/Applications/zeromq/jzmq/jzmq-jni/src/main/c++/zmq.jar

And then how do I implement the following command in Eclipse?
-Djava.library.path=/usr/local/lib hwClient

​Thank you all. I appreciate your help.

Sincerely,
Sara​
