Hello all. I have started work on a new Clojure launcher with the intent of making something that is nicely integrated with operating systems so that apps feel more native and are easier to start. This is probably mostly relevant for desktop apps but might be usable for server apps as well. The readme and code is over here: http://github.com/bagucode/Carnival
If you don't want to compile C++ or can't get the projects working (I may have used some machine-specific paths) I have made some prebuilt binaries for your testing pleasure. Mac OS X version requires jre 1.6, Windows version should work with 1.6 server or later but has only been tested with 1.6u18 64 bit server. The windows versions probably require some sort of visual C++ runtime as well, I didn't include that in the zip archives, they can be downloaded from here: i386 (x86): http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=a7b7a05e-6de6-4d3a-a423-37bf0912db84 x64: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=BD512D9E-43C8-4655-81BF-9350143D5867&displaylang=en Carnival binaries: Mac OS X 10.5+ (sorry, no ppc binaries) Debug i386: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/734671/Carnival/Builds/macosx/Debug%20i386.zip Debug x64: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/734671/Carnival/Builds/macosx/Debug%20x64.zip Release i386: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/734671/Carnival/Builds/macosx/Release%20i386.zip Release x64: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/734671/Carnival/Builds/macosx/Release%20x64.zip Windows (only tested on Windows 7 x64) Debug i386: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/734671/Carnival/Builds/windows/Debug%20i386.zip Debug x64: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/734671/Carnival/Builds/windows/Debug%20x64.zip Release i386: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/734671/Carnival/Builds/windows/Release%20i386.zip Release x64: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/734671/Carnival/Builds/windows/Release%20x64.zip So is this a terrible idea or is it worth continued work?
