Java 1.1 or higher has to be installed. It doesn't matter where the Java Environment has been installed, it can be a PC working under Windows, UNIX, Mac OS, or a PDA like Zaurus, iPAQ, and so on.

"lib/lw.jar", "lib/lwext.jar" JAR files should be used to start your application. The paths to the packages should be included in your "classpath".

You are free in choosing the development environment. Pay attention to the fact that, as a rule, the LwVCL components cannot be included in visual composition tools since these tools are supposed to be used for java.awt.Component successors only.

To use LwVCL in applets, you should have Java installed in your browser. It is not necessary to install J2SE plug-in for your browser since the library can work under Java 1.1.

The library works fine for iPAQ and Zaurus PDAs. In this case, you should use special software provided by the PDAs' vendors to deploy LwVCL applications on these devices.
