Hi, this is what I've found in http://lwjgl.org/installation.php :
###
Test LWJGL by opening a command prompt, and navigating to the folder where the archive was extracted. Once navigated, issue the following command:
java -cp .;res;jar\lwjgl.jar;jar\lwjgl_test.jar;jar\lwjgl_util.jar;jar\lwjgl_fmod3.jar;jar\lwjgl_devil.jar;jar\jinput.jar; -Djava.library.path=native org.lwjgl.test.WindowCreationTest
###
I (like some other users) found UnsatisfiedLinkError when issuing above command. It should be
java -cp .;res;jar\lwjgl.jar;jar\lwjgl_test.jar;jar\lwjgl_util.jar;jar\lwjgl_fmod3.jar;jar\lwjgl_devil.jar;jar\jinput.jar; -Djava.library.path=native/win32 org.lwjgl.test.WindowCreationTest
on Windows, or
java -cp .;res;jar\lwjgl.jar;jar\lwjgl_test.jar;jar\lwjgl_util.jar;jar\lwjgl_fmod3.jar;jar\lwjgl_devil.jar;jar\jinput.jar; -Djava.library.path=native/linux org.lwjgl.test.WindowCreationTest
on Linux, or
java -cp .;res;jar\lwjgl.jar;jar\lwjgl_test.jar;jar\lwjgl_util.jar;jar\lwjgl_fmod3.jar;jar\lwjgl_devil.jar;jar\jinput.jar; -Djava.library.path=native/macosx org.lwjgl.test.WindowCreationTest
on OSX.
Thank you.
You are right, there is something definitely wrong with their installation part. Once I tried yours I immediately got a Java window..
Thanks! :wink:
the installation page was updated some time ago, following the original post - so you should have been able to use the installation page?
I tried this code and I am getting an error message >:(. I cut and pasted it into the cmd window.
java -cp .;res;jar\lwjgl.jar;jar\lwjgl_test.jar;jar\lwjgl_util.jar;jar\lwjgl_fmod3.jar;jar\lwjgl_devil.jar;jar\jinput.jar; -Djava.library.path=native/win32 org.lwjgl.test.WindowCreationTest
This is the error I get
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/lwjgl/test/WindowCreationTest
I'm running windows Vista, just installed Java updates, OpenGl, and I have the latest drivers for my video card
Graphics Media Accelerator 900.
I'm going back and trying version 1.2 to see if that will make a difference. Also, I lumped everything together in one folder the first time I extracted everything. This time I am putting everything into sub-folders with the appropriate names as per the zip file ext's. Hopefully this will make the difference ::)
seems to work fine here...

The following keys are available:

ARROW Keys: Move window when in non-fullscreen mode
L: List selectable display modes

F: Toggle fullscreen
SHIFT-F: Toggle fullscreen with Display.destroy()/create() cycle
Found 30 display modes

here is an additional suggestion for the installation.php file part for macs
when i copied and pasted
java -cp .;res;jar\lwjgl.jar;jar\lwjgl_test.jar;jar\lwjgl_util.jar;jar\lwjgl_fmod3.jar;jar\lwjgl_devil.jar;jar\jinput.jar; -Djava.library.path=native/macosx org.lwjgl.test.WindowCreationTest
into the terminal. i get
-bash: -Djava.library.path=native/macosx: No such file or directory
it appears that a carriage return is present in front of -Djava... copying the command from the page into a text editor first, removing the new line in front of -Djava, then copying that into the terminal finally works. it would make life a lot easier for newbies like me, if that new line would be removed from the page. ciao,
