Stand alone Ubuntu orbiter

[tschak909]

for Orbiter, I need to typically build PlutoUtils, SerializeClass, pluto_main, DCE, SDL_Helpers, and then finally Orbiter.

Ok so I guess al the files i need are in the src folder and i should ignore the others out side of that for now.
Seen as I'm new to linux programming and the last programmingetc i did was (if, then go to <, > =, print and lets not forget each line had to be numbered) on turbo pascal on an Amiga 501, i need to start small, something less complicated.

1) now there are different file extensions.

now just a thought, if Java is platform independent ie works on Microsoft Android Nokia and the Web etc, and if Java can send system commands like shutdown reboot or what ever, would it be a better idea to create a Java Orbiter, and maybe look at native audio and video support of each device or in Java its self.
maybe the webadmin site could be incorporated into it as a one stop shop.

Its just a thought remember.

davidsmoot did make a java implementation of DCE.

but as a dev do you think it would be a good idea and would it be possible.

if so then the re-wright of the webadmin could be incorporated into the java.

well i looked up davidsmoot on the forum and dint find anything from him about a java orbiter is in in the svn i downloaded, so I can look at the src and see how things work and ask questions
