wija and its plug-ins are written in Java language (J2SE; Java 2 Standard Edition)*1. You will need to install JDK (J2SE Development Kit) to develop programs using J2SE (bundled with OS in case of Mac OS X). We assume that ant tool is used for builds.
The versions of all software (including wija and its plug-ins) and web sites developed and distributed by Media Art Online are manageed using Perforce software. It is a commercial software, but Perforce has agreed to grant free licenses for 40 users in Media Art Online only in the case where those licenses are used for development in open source projects. Also, since the client software for Perforce is free, anyone can obtain the latest source code using the software if they do not intend to participate in development at Media Art Online.
We have prepared wija-devel-en mailing list to share those licenses and to discuss issues in the development of wija and its related software. For each member of wija-devel-en list, a writing-enabled Perforce user account is allocated.
If you are interested in joining wija-devel-en, please let us know at the following
The members of wija-devel-en can try out the latest software or documentation by receiving a review message by Perforce right after a modification is made to the development items in which they are interested.
However, what you can obtain from Perforce is source code, so that you will need to build the softare using the development tools in order to actually try them out. It could be too complex for people who do not normally develop software.
Therefore, an internal release is made almost nightly, so that people who do not wish to use the development tools can still check changes when they are made.
This internal release is made in the early morning (JST) of the following day when a modification is made (it will be automated in future, but for the time being, it is manually done, which may make the timing rather unpredictable). The following URL is reserved for the internal releases.
@ At the beginning., the internal releases themselves will be notified by review messages.
An internal release is provided in the form of a compressed archive file whose name contains the latest Perforce change number.
