qflog - Download and installation

qflog comes in two flavours, one for JDK 1.1 with Swing 1.1 and one for JDK 1.2 and above. Both versions are essentially the same, the only difference being the location of the collection classes.

The collection framework is a part of the Java Foundation Classes (JFC). With the release of JDK 1.2 the JFC were integrated into the standard Java class library.

Since the collection classes are far superior to their predecessors Vector and Hashtable, use of them is widespread throughout qflog. SUN has released a JDK 1.1 compatible version of the collection classes under http://java.sun.com/products/archive/javabeans/infobus/downloads.html. To use qflog with JDK 1.1, the collections.jar archive from the above release must be present on your CLASSPATH.

qflog is built on top of our free Java library qflib. Please get the current version from our qflib download page.

Simply ensure that the correct qflog and qflib jar archives for your environment are present on your CLASSPATH, i.e. qflog_11.jar and qflib_11.jar for JDK 1.1 or qflog_12.jar and qflib_12.jar for JDK 1.2 and above. In the case of JDK 1.2 it is also possible to simply copy qflog_12.jar and qflib_12.jar into the jre/lib/ext directory of your JDK installation.

You'll find a start script in the bin directory of the qflog distribution (qflog for Unix or qflog.bat for Windows), which you should copy to a directory on your PATH.

To test the installation execute
qflog -version
This should print a short message stating the installed qflog version.
