The COBA 2.0 Applet was developed using Java SDK version 1.4.2.
The applet needs your permission to read and create files on your local machine. You must explicitly grant this permission to the applet, if you wish to either import input files into the applet or save the applet output to output files. You may do this by simply copying the following policy to your .java.policy file on your machine:
grant codeBase
"http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~cl/software/COBA/-" {
permission
java.io.FilePermission "<<ALL FILES>>",
"read";
permission
java.security.AllPermission;
permission
java.util.PropertyPermission "user.home", "read";
};
The location of your .java.policy file varies depending on your OS. See Sun's Web page (which opens in a new browser window) for its default location.
