For this reason, 3.09's GLI is now no longer provided as an applet, but has been converted into a Java Web Start application.7 Many browsers have stopped supporting Java applets including Microsoft Edge, though Microsoft's Internet Explorer still supported it. For this reason, 3.09's GLI is now no longer provided as an applet, but has been converted into a Java Web Start application. 8 8 9 9 Instructions for using the GLI Java Web Start, which works over the JNLP protocol, are below. … … 43 43 Name=Java 7 Web Start 44 44 Comment=Java 7 Web Start 45 Exec=/ path-to-java-jre/bin/javaws %u45 Exec=/EDIT-THIS-PATH-TO-YOUR-JRE/bin/javaws %u 46 46 Terminal=false 47 47 Type=Application … … 51 51 -------------------------- 52 52 53 5.

Since you have set up the JNLP file association in a previous step, you can now click on the "The Librarian Interface" link 70 and your browser should offer to save or launch a file called GLIappWebStart.jnlp: One of the applications for launching it 71 should be the Java Web Start application (javaws) that you associated with .jnlp file extensions. Choose that application as the launcher. 70 and your browser should offer to save or launch a file called GLIappWebStart.jnlp. Click ''Open With'' and in the dropdown box beside it, one of the launcher applications should, at least on Windows, be the "Java(TM) Web Start Launcher" application (javaws) that you associated with .jnlp file extensions. Choose that application as the launcher. 72 71 If the browser is able to successfully launch it, Java Web Start will be used to run the GLI application indicated by the JNLP file. 73 If launching through the browser is not possible, then choose to save the JNLP file.72 If launching through the browser is not possible, for example, if the launcher application is not listed, as may happen on Linux machines, then choose to save the JNLP file. 74 73 It will download the file to a temporary user area (like C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp on windows). 75 74 And then you can rightclick on the downloaded GLIappWebStart.jnlp file, to launch it with the Java Web Start program you already 76 associated with this file type. 75 associated with this file type. This way should work on both Linux and Windows. 77 76 78 77 9. After authorising the GLI to run, the JNLP version of the GLI Applet will eventually run and behave like the usual client-GLI
