from the directory under which you want Oddjob installed.

Running Oddjob

Running Oddjob is one double click. The user guide here will tell you where.

Building From Source

To build Oddjob - you use Oddjob.

Oddjob must be run with tools.jar on the classpath. On Windows if JAVA_HOME points to a JDK this can be achieved from the command prompt with:

"%JAVA_HOME%"\bin\java -jar run-oddjob.jar -cp "%JAVA_HOME%"\lib\tools.jar

When the build completes you should find an archive identical to your original download in the oddjob/oj-assembly/work/ojdist directory.
