 # Objective
 Unfortunately both MyOpenLab and MyLibreLab projects got discontinued. However, the orignal software from [here](https://myopenlab.org) is still usable, but requires Java 8. This repository tries to provide a version of MyOpenLab that runs with the latest java (for now, this is Java 17). Also, I have added a couple of changes, which are described in the Changelog.

+# Building
+**Dependencies :**
+* [Rhino and Rhino JSR-223 javascript engine](https://github.com/mozilla/rhino)
+* [JSON library](https://github.com/stleary/JSON-java)
+* [JSSC Serial Port library](https://github.com/java-native/jssc)
+* [Java XML Binding library](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/javax.xml.bind/jaxb-api)
+* Old Java Swing GroupLayout library (included)
+  (needed as not all code has not been moved to new Java Swing Group Layout, which is included with java.)
+
+Dependencies are already included in `distribution/myopenlab_lib`.
+
+To build you will need Java JDK and Apache ANT installed. Run `ant` in this directory. The output will be the `myopenlab.jar` java archive in the `distribution` directory. A prebuilt copy is included in the `distribution` folder.
+
+# Running
+You will need all the files in the `distribution` directory. Clone this repository or download the Zip from the Code button at top right. Then navigate to the distribution folder and run the `start-` file corresponding to your OS. You will need Java JRE installed (at least version 15). (Tested on Linux so far)
