Linux

Prerequisites

  • glibc 2.16+
  • x86_64 / ARM architectures
  • libcurl

Installation steps:

  1. Download Sample App and IDTech plugin here
  2. Extract libraries and symbolic links from IDTECH/ folder.
  3. Create file /etc/ld.so.conf.d/idtech.conf - This file should contain the path to the extracted libs directory in Step 1.
  4. From the command line run sudo ldconfig.
  5. Additionally, if using a NEO2 (family of devices which includes the VP6300 and VP5300) device, please copy the NEO2_devices.xml from libs/IDTECH/ folder into your project root directory. Permissions must be set for the USB device. This can be achieved by creating a new file in /etc/udev/rules.d named usb.rules - It must have the following contents: SUBSYSTEM=="usb", MODE="0666". If you don’t want to add permissions for all devices you could add the IDTech vendor ID
  6. Open up SwingSample folder located in Sample app in some IDE
  7. Open MainForm.java and run it

NOTE: When running in Java, you must also edit configurations and set the VM option: -Xss4m

Done! With your environment properly configured you are now ready to perform your first sales transaction. Check out the Coding 101 section for more information.
