Writing Your Own Image Analysis Programs
Even if you do not wish to use Jim, you can still have free access to the applications
programming interface to images held in the UNC, Analyze, NIFTI-1, NIFTI-2 or DICOM file formats. This will
allow you create, manipulate and process images using your own software. To see the functionality
that is available, please see the documentation.
To access this software, you should download and install the Java Development Kit (JDK) for your
platform and also Jim. Then make sure that the following jar files, that can be found in
the Jim install directory, are in your classpath.
- . (the current working directory where you are writing your program)
- xinapse9.jar
- jj2000.jar
- cli.jar
- jmf.jar
- svg-salamander.jar
- java3d/vecmath.jar
- java3d/j3dcore.jar
- java3d/jogamp-fat.jar
- itext.jar
- templates.jar
The Java compiler (javac) and Java interpreter (java) will need to be told where
to find the appropriate classes by including these files in your classpath. The examples
illustrate a few typical use cases of the programming A.P.I. If you require more detailed help for
a specific task, or guidance on how to use the A.P.I., please
