Countdown to 1
What is missing before version 1 can be released BRITNeY


Using the current snapshot

Downloading

Download the newest snapshot.

Installing

For easiest use, simply ensure you have JRE 5.0 installed and click on the web-start link. The application will be cached on your local computer.

To use the offline version, unzip the file to some directory.

Starting

You have to start BRITNeY before you start CPN Tools. Also, you must make sure, no simulator from CPN Tools is running. This is normally not the case, but if you experience any problems, try restarting your machine prior to starting BRITNeY and CPN Tools.

Then simply double-click on BRITNeY.jar.

The simulator daemon can be used from the local machine or any remote machine. The daemon is started automatically if it is needed. The daemon is shut down after you quit BRITNeY Suite.

Then start CPN Tools and load your net.

Getting started

Look at the Animation section on the help page. Note that most animation objects have had their names changed or interfaces updated. Check the reference. Also, previously, all animations had to be created by appending Instance or Remote Instance to the name. This has been changes, so now you do not have to add anything for local object and only add Remote for remote instances.

Go through at least 2-3 of the examples. Look at the presentations for more in-depth information. It is recommended to browse through tincpn.pdf first, and then look at presentation.pdf for more advanced animations.

Use the reference for every-day use.
