Install-Bundles

Manual Installation

Alternatively, you can download the tool and the necessary libraries separately.

Prerequisites

CMCM requires a current Java runtime environment and a JavaFX runtime environment. CMCM can be used on any platform that supports these environments. You can take the following steps to install Java and JavaFX on your system, in case they are not installed already:

  1. Download the latest OpenJDK Java runtime from https://openjdk.java.net/.
  2. Extract the archive to a path, e.g. /java/.
  3. Download the latest OpenJFX JavaFX runtime from https://gluonhq.com/products/javafx/.
  4. Extract the archive to a path, e.g. /javafx/.
  5. Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to your Java path, e.g. to /java/.
  6. Set the PATH_TO_FX environment variable to your JavaFX path, e.g. to /javafx/.
  7. Extend your PATH environment variable with the bin subdirectory of your Java directory, e.g. /java/bin/.

Installation

Once you have taken these steps, you can download, install and run CMCM as follows:

  1. Download CMCM from https://www.se.uni-oldenburg.de/documents/cmcm/cmcm.zip.
  2. Extract the archive to a path, e.g. /cmcm/. This path must now contain a CMCM.jar file and a CMCM_lib directory.
  3. Open a command line interface (console) at the CMCM path, e.g. /cmcm/.
  4. Type
    java -jar --module-path "/javafx/lib" --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml CMCM.jar
    (replace /javafx/lib with the lib subdirectory of your own JavaFX path),
    then hit "enter".
