Downloads

Distribution archives of released versions (containing binaries, sources, javadoc, and the documentation web site) are available from the releases page.

Web Site

VisualDCT has a generated static web site that contains detailed information, including user manuals, release notes, reference and project documentation.

The current (development) version of the generated web site is available on-line, the complete website is included in the distribution archives (in the site folder).

Building from Sources

VisualDCT is a Maven project. Any recent Java IDE should be able to open and compile it. VisualDCT requires Java 7 and is known to compile using Java 8, 11 and 16.

Apart from the default lifecycle, two additional Maven goals are useful:

• site Generate the website with user, reference and project documentation
• assembly:single Generate the distribution archives as tar and zip

Continuous Integration

Continuous Integration and deployment is provided through GitHub Actions.

Bugs

Any bugs should be reported as issues in the GitHub project.
