Using Jaunch as your application launcher

  1. Use make dist to build from source.

  2. Copy the dist/launcher/dist\launcher.exe native launcher to your application distribution root, renaming it to match your desired naming. For example, if your application is called Fizzbuzz, you might name it fizzbuzz/fizzbuzz.exe.

  3. Create a directory beneath your application root, into which your application's Jaunch TOML configuration will be stored. This configuration directory can be named jaunch, .jaunch, config/jaunch, or .config/jaunch, depending on your requirements and taste. Or you can customize the allowed configuration directory names by editing the JAUNCH_SEARCH_PATHS list in jaunch.c and matching configDirs list in main.kt.

  4. Copy the TOML files from the dist/jaunch folder to your application distribution's configuration folder, as created in (3).

  5. Rename the launcher.toml file to match your launcher name from (2) (e.g. fizzbuzz.toml).

  6. Edit the renamed TOML file's contents to set the parameters for your application. See the comments in common.toml for detailed guidance. If you don't need the JVM, you can remove the JVM-specific parts. If you don't need Python, you can remove the Python-specific parts.
