JASigning vhg.2019

Please see the Conditions of Use applying to the JASigning software.

For information on this and previous versions, please see the JASigning Release Notes.

Users of JASigning apps and applets on Windows should see the comments on runtime support in the JASigning Platform Issues notes.

Some examples use a wider range of avatar characters than the standard avatars Anna, Francoise, and Marc. The additional avatars are made available for evaluation only. Please email us to discuss public or commercial use of avatars.


HTML5 web pages using WebGL

These pages should function on all major browsers on Windows and OS X. They should also function on iOS devices and modern tablets and smart phones. See below for a version transpiled for legacy browsers such as Internet Explorer.
Feedback is requested on experience with other platforms.

Pages using JavaScript in the browser to process SiGML data: Test Pages using JavaScript in the browser to process SiGML data: Test Pages using a server side CGI script to process SiGML data: Test Pages using a legacy Java Applet to process SiGML data: Using Java Applets is deprecated and will only work with outdated browsers and Java installations.

Versions of other example web pages can be created by changing the script file loaded for CWASA.

Applications using Node.js and Electron

An application for animating SiGML data is available based on the WebGL implementation via Node.js and Electron. Installers are available for OS X, Windows, and Linux. See the JASigning Platform Issues notes, especially for the Linux distribution.

This is a prototype implementation providing the features of the HTML5 WebGL implementation. It does not currently have all the functionality of the Java Web Start SiGML Player application.

Apps using the standard set of avatars: The Java Web Start SiGML Service Client can be used to send SiGML data to the application.

HTML web pages using legacy JASigning Java Applets

Using Java applets is deprecated and support ceased at the end of 2016. For comments on supported browsers see the JASigning Platform Issues notes.


Applications using Java Web Start

JASigning applications are launched via JNLP files. Users of JASigning on OS X should see the comments on Java Web Start in the JASigning Platform Issues notes.
