ICS 2.0 Cygwin Installation
Cygwin is a Unix-like environment that runs under Windows.
-
If
you do not have it already, you first need to install the Java runtime
-
Then make sure it is in your Windows path: open a Command Prompt
(MSDOS) window and type "java". If you get no response, go to
Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System -> Advanced ->
Environment Variables, highlight path and press
edit and append a semicolon and the location of the java
runtime (probably c:\Program Files\j2sdk_nb\jvm\bin). Start
a new command prompt window and check for "java" again.
-
Next, install Cygwin from www.cygwin.com and check that "java"
works from there, too.
-
Then download the ICS
Cygwin
tar file into
your Cygwin directory.
-
In Cygwin, type tar xzf
ics-cygwin-2-0.tar.gz
-
Copy your license certificate to this
directory, then type ./bin/i686-pc-cygwin/ics and check that it seems to be working.
