3.8 Running XecliP-Server

There are two ways to start the xeclip-Server-Component. After the server is started it will listen on the default port 2631 for incoming XecliP-Client-Connections.

  • The easiest way to run the XecliP-Server is to use the .jar-Distribution.: Download XecliPServer.jar and put it in an dedicated folder. Change to that directory and run
    java -Xmx500m -jar XecliPServer.jar
    On first start multiple files and folders will be created.
    A note to Windows Users: It's a good idea to create a shortcut for that.
    <your-jre-bin>\java.exe -jar "<your-path-to-xeclipServerJar>\XecliPServer.jar"
  • If you have loaded the project into you eclipse workspace and you want to start it within your eclipse environment, you have to select the class de.feu.xeclip.server.StartServer and then select "Run as" > "Java Application"
