Image Generation Using Marvin Beans

The following examples send a structure to a JSP script that generates an image and displays it in the web browser.

To run the examples, please follow the next steps:

Install Tomcat. (of course the examples also run under other servlet servers.)
Copy all jar files (files with .jar extension) of the Marvin Beans or JChem package under Tomcat's lib directory.
Create the marvin directory under Tomcat's webapps/examples/jsp/marvin
Copy all files from the examples/image-generation directory of Marvin Beans to Tomcat's webapps/examples/jsp/marvin/ directory.
Modify show_image3.jsp and show_image4.jsp to refer to that directory in the path to caffeine.smi
Start Tomcat
