A simple sample application demonstrating running Swing applications remotely.

Documentation | Issue tracker

We use Gradle. So you can run Gradle tasks as follows:

# example of running `build` task:
./gradlew build

There is OriginalMain class, which is an example of a custom Swing application. Also, there is HeadlessSupportingMain class, which demonstrates lines added to run the demo app in the headless mode.

Here are several ways to run this demo app. Using them, you can understand how to run your own app.

To access headlessly run app, you can use Projector web client. It will be available on http://localhost:8887. Or you can use any other way of connection, feel free to check the corresponding documentation page.

There are two run configurations. Jars will be built in the build/libs dir.

Gradle task: jarHeadlessSupport.

Its main class is HeadlessSupportingMain and it contains the projector-server module. To run headlessly, add a JVM option -Dorg.jetbrains.projector.server.enable=true.

Gradle task: jarOriginal.

Its main class is OriginalMain.

To launch the original version with UI, run:

java \
-classpath projector-demo-original.jar \
org.jetbrains.projector.demo.OriginalMain

To launch the original version headlessly, place the classpath of projector-server into libs dir and run:

java \
-classpath projector-demo-original.jar:libs/* \
-Dorg.jetbrains.projector.server.classToLaunch=org.jetbrains.projector.demo.OriginalMain \
org.jetbrains.projector.server.ProjectorLauncher
