TTool Installation: Windows, UNIX
Windows installation
- Before installing TTool, make sure that a Java Runtime Environment 6 (or later) is installed on your system.
To do so, open a terminal ("Start", "Execute", type "cmd": a terminal should open). Then, type "java -version". If you obtain an error message, then, you first need to install a Java Runtime Environment). If the version number is less than 6, you need to upgrade your existing installation of the Java Runtime Environment.
- Then, you need to download TTool
- Extract the archive in the destination directory of your choice, e.g., in C:\
This should create a C:\TTool directory
- With the file explorer, go into, e.g., C:\TTool\bin, and double-click on ttool.jar
UNIX installation (including MacOS)
- Before installing TTool, make sure that a Java Runtime Environment 6 (or later) is installed on your system, and that "java" is in your PATH.
To do so, open a terminal, and type:
$ java -version
If you obtain an error message (e.g., "command not found"), install a Java Runtime environment and add in your $PATH environment variable the java command. If you obtain a version number less than 5, install a more recent version of the Java Runtime Environment.
- Then, you need to download TTool
- Extract the archive in the destination directory of your choice, e.g., in mydir\
$ cd mydir
$ gunzip releaseTTool_0_92.tgz
$ tar -xof releaseTTool_0_92.tar
By default, TTool uncompresses in a
TTool subdirectory.
You can then start TTool as follows:
$ cd TTool/bin; java -jar ttool.jar
A script called
ttool_unix located in the same directory as
ttool.jar can also start ttool. It assumes that TTool is installed in
/package/TTool: it must therefore be adapted to your own installation if you wish to use it.
