Clicking on a .jxe file produced an exception: "unknown file type, bla bla bla..."
How can I install J9 on my Pocket PC and associate my .jxe files with it?
This QA is translated from CodePPC.com.
Answer
- Download the PalmTweak utility
from http://tillanosoft.com/anonymous_ftp/pub/ce/ptweak42e.zip
In spite of its name, this zip contains all the CAB of each OS (MIPS, ARM, SH3).
This tool makes it possible to associate a file extension with a program
(as well as in Windows).
- Install it
-
Copy the CAB file in \windows\Start Menu\Programs
-
Click on it, it will be installed.
- Use it
Start -> Parameters -> System -> PalmTweak
- Install the exe and the DLL of J9 in a PPC folder
(for example \My Documents\ive-13\)
- Create a folder, in which you will store all your jxe programs
(For example, \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\JXE)
- Launch PalmTweak
(A corresponding doc can be found on
http://tillanosoft.com/ce/ptweak.html)
- Copy a classes.zip file to your J9 folder (for example \My Documents\J9)
for example, you can use that of jclCore.
- Add another record into the extensions list.
Add a jxe record with the main executable application:
" \My Documents\j9\j9.exe " " - bp:\My Documents\j9\classes.zip " " - jxe:%1 "
Make sure to include the quotation marks.
You can easily change the name, description and icon associated with the
extension. Click Ok; the record is added.
From now on simple clicking on a .jxe file launches J9 and your program.
