## Getting Started

In order to work with the ObjectManager you will need:

- a Sun Java Virtual Machine 1.5 or later installed on your machine;
- the directory containing the java binary listed in your PATH environmental variable (this should be set when you've first installed the Java Runtime Environment).

You can download the latest Java Runtime Environment at: http://java.com/getjava

To start ObjectManager:

- from UI: double-click the objectmanager.jar
- from command-line: execute "java -jar objectmanager.jar"

You can also use objectmanager.bat(Windows) or objectmanager.sh (Linux) if you have problems with the above-mentioned methods.

For further information on how to use ObjectManager, please see the documentation at: http://developer.db4o.com/resources/view.aspx/Reference/Object_Manager_For_db4o
