I'm trying to get udig running on windows xp sp2 but I'm having problems
installing JAI... I don't know if this is simply funny or pathetic... anyway, I've installed JDK 1.5, and when I try to run jai-1_1_2-lib-windows-i586-jdk.exe I get the following message: "This program requires the installation of Java2 SDK 
version 1.3". Eh??? You've got to be kidding :-)
I've already tried out the "restart" trick and also added the JAVA_HOME AND JDK_HOME variables to the environment, no luck, always the same message... 

Any ideas?



I've downloaded jai 1.2.2_01 and it works fine.
And finally I was able to start udig... ugh... the rendering performance is disappointing at best... the zoom tool does not work properly, the pan tool neither... And I see no way to change the styles (maybe this is intended?) 

Best regards

The rendering as actually quite fast... It is largely the surrounding code that is inefficient but we have no been able to do the optimization phase yet. Our mandate has been "Make some thing appear on the screen." The zoom tool normally works, the trick is that the zoom box is centered around the first mouse click... and yes the mouse does not stay on the outline of the bounding box. The tool was made that way quickly to attempt to decide whether we want to have a zoom tool that is centered around the original mouse click. The pan is in a similar state. It works.. but it has a hiccup that I wasn't able to address before the release. It was something I really wanted to fix and is fixed on the HEAD right now. :-(. As for changing styles, and changing layer order for that matter, they are functionality that simply is not released yet.
