This is the source code folder of "jbead", a bead crochet ropes design software by Damian Brunold. See www.jbead.ch for more information.
Originally called DB-BEAD, this software was written in C++ using Borland C++Builder 5 and the VCL library.
This version is a port to Java 6 using the Swing GUI library.

For creating a launcher/setup program for windows platforms, two additional open-source projects are used: launch4j for createing a launcher exe, NSIS for creating a setup program.
But the application can be simply installed by copying the jbead.jar and launching it from the command line or from a batch file using 'java -jar jbead.jar', provided that a Java Runtime Environment 1.6.0 or later is installed.
