If you have not installed Launch4j, you must download the software and install it in the /opt
directory.
$ wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/launch4j/files/launch4j-3/3.12/launch4j-3.12-linux-x64.tgz/download?source=files -O ~/launch4j-3.12-linux-x64.tgz

To build Hyperbox binaries with client, server and all supported VirtualBox modules:
git clone https://github.com/hyperbox/hyperbox.git
cd hyperbox
./init
./gradlew build
You will then find the Client and Server binaries for Linux/Windows ready to be run as-is in the ./build/{client|server}/bin
directory.
To start the server in foreground interactive mode, log to console (replace <OS>
):
cd build/server/bin/<OS>
./hyperbox
To start the GUI client:
cd build/client/bin/<OS>
./hyperbox
You will find distribution packages in the Releases section
To build from source:
# For Linux
./gradlew distLinux
# For Windows
./gradlew distWin
# For all platforms
./gradlew distAll
You can then follow the regular instructions in the user manual.
