| [higgins-dev] ant builds for STS |
|
<resent with non-broken instructions>
I switched over the STS projects to use ant as the build system, and changed the classpaths to use libraries specified by the user. There's still one point of integration I want to smooth out, but for now, here's what you need to do to get the STS components to build:
1) Use the attached .psf file to get the projects (it will get you the sts plus idas components)
2) You need one or more directories in which to place dependency jar files. Either follow my example, or put them all in one shared directory, or split them up however you want:
depends.sts.binding.axis.core
axiom-api-1.1.1.jar
axis.jar commons-logging-1.0.4.jar jaxrpc.jar saaj.jar depends.sts.binding.axis.service axiom-api-1.1.1.jar axis.jar commons-logging-1.0.4.jar jaxrpc.jar saaj.jar depends.sts.binding.axis.transfer
axis.jar commons-logging-1.0.4.jar jaxrpc.jar saaj.jar depends.sts.binding.axis.types
axis.jar jaxrpc.jar depends.sts.core
axiom-api-1.1.1.jar axis.jar commons-logging-1.0.4.jar jaxrpc.jar saaj.jar servlet-api.jar stax-api-1.0.1.jar xercesImpl.jar xmlsec-1.3.0.jar depends.sts.extension.samltoken
axiom-api-1.1.1.jar commons-logging-1.0.4.jar xmlsec-1.3.0.jar depends.sts.extension.usernametoken
axiom-api-1.1.1.jar commons-logging-1.0.4.jar xmlsec-1.3.0.jar depends.sts.informationcardgenerator
<nothing here yet>
If you add these directories at the root of your Eclipse workspace directory it will save you a lot of time later. If you at least put them all in the same place it will save a little time later.
3) In Eclipse, do this: Window, Preferences..., Java, Build Path, Classpath Variables.
3.1) For each name below, press New, enter the name, then enter the path to the corresponding dependency directory you built above
STS_BINDING_AXIS_CORE_DEPENDS (My path is C:/Data/Higgins/depends.sts.binding.axis.core)
STS_BINDING_AXIS_SERVICE_DEPENDS (My path is C:/Data/Higgins/depends.sts.binding.axis.service)
STS_BINDING_AXIS_TRANSFER_DEPENDS (My path is C:/Data/Higgins/depends.sts.binding.axis.transfer)
STS_BINDING_AXIS_TYPES_DEPENDS (My path is C:/Data/Higgins/depends.sts.binding.axis.types)
STS_CORE_DEPENDS (My path is C:/Data/Higgins/depends.sts.core)
STS_EXTENSION_SAML_TOKEN_DEPENDS (My path is C:/Data/Higgins/depends.sts.extension.samltoken)
STS_EXTENSION_USERNAME_TOKEN_DEPENDS (My path is C:/Data/Higgins/depends.sts.extension.usernametoken)
STS_INFORMATION_CARD_GENERATOR_DEPENDS (My path is C:/Data/Higgins/depends.sts.informationcardgenerator)
4) <here's the redundant part> In Eclipse, do this: Window, Preferences..., Ant, Runtime, Properties (tab)
4.1) For each name below, press Add Property, enter the name, then enter the path to the corresponding dependency directory you built above. Note, you can use a variable here like I did.
sts.binding.axis.core.depends (My path is ${workspace_loc}/depends.sts.binding.axis.core/
sts.binding.axis.service.depends (My path is ${workspace_loc}/depends.sts.binding.axis.service/ sts.binding.axis.transfer.depends (My path is ${workspace_loc}/depends.sts.binding.axis.transfer/ sts.binding.axis.types.depends (My path is ${workspace_loc}/depends.sts.binding.axis.types/ sts.core.depends (My path is ${workspace_loc}/depends.sts.core/ sts.extension.samltoken.depends (My path is ${workspace_loc}/depends.sts.extension.samltoken/ sts.extension.usernametoken.depends (My path is ${workspace_loc}/depends.sts.extension.usernametoken/ sts.informationcardgenerator.depends (My path is ${workspace_loc}/depends.sts.informationcardgenerator/ That should be it unless I forgot something. I'm sure there are tricks to reduce the redundancy, I'll keep poking around.
Building the projects will cause the ant scripts to be used. To build manually or pick the target you want to execute, add the ant scripts like this:
6) In Eclipse, do this: Window, Show View, Ant. An Ant Browser appears. Right-Click, Add Buildfiles..., browse to the buildfile (build.xml) you want to add and select it. You can double click the build file to build the default target, or expand it to see all the targets available
Note that the STS Core build file has a jarAllSTS -- this will force all the jars to be built. I think I'll add a warAllSTS once I get a couple more war targets done.
