1 1  **Getting Started with BugTracker**

3 -~1. Import the source code folders needed for BugTracker either [[from local Wonder source tree>>http://wiki.objectstyle.org/confluence/display/WONDER/Working+with+Wonder+source+in+Eclipse]] or from Wonder CVS server as discussed below.
3 +BugTracker is an example application that exposes a lot of Wonder functionalities. It is especially true if you want to have a look at DirectToWeb (D2W) since BugTracker have a lot of custom D2W rules.

5 -{{info title="Alternate method for getting started with BugTracker"}}
5 +You can listen to a good introduction to BugTracker by listening to the [[presentation>>http://www.wocommunity.org/podcasts/wowodc/west08/WOWODC07_D2W.mp4]] made at WOWODC 2007.

7 -If you're just exploring BugTracker, you may prefer to use the method outlined on [this page|Getting Started with BugTracker Alternate method] that depends on installed Wonder frameworks instead of importing the Wonder source into your workspace.
7 +To look at BugTracker, you will need to g[[et the Wonder Source Code>>Getting the Wonder Source Code]] of Project Wonder. Once it's done and that you have imported the BugTracker project into Eclipse, you will see the following files: [[image:BugTrackerProject.png||border="1"]]
8 +To launch BugTracker, right-click **BugTracker.launch** and select **Run As** > **BugTracker**. It will launch BugTracker with a in-memory database, which is perfect to explore the application.

10 +You should see a login screen. Your default administrative user is "admin" with password "admin"

11 -The next three screenshots are showing the folders that can be found on the CVS server for Wonder. I have split them up because all the folders don't fit on the screen at once As you can see, the folders that are necessary are found in several different sub-folders.
12 -
13 -You may need to adjust the exact folders you import depending on the database you plan to use. In this case, I have added the FrontBase plugin as well as all the other frameworks that BugTracker expects to find in its build path.

17 -BugTracker has new dependencies on DerbyPlugin and ERChronic since these screenshots were taken. Make sure to import them into your workspace as well.

51 -6. Change the Properties located in the resources folder to match the requirements for your database. Wonder applications need Properties files to manage their configuration correctly. There are a number of different places in the Wonder frameworks that application properties will be read from. In the original example, the Database connection properties are taken from a logged in user's properties file, in this case it is named "Properties.ak". I moved the relevant lines to the Application Properties file that described the Global connection dictionary for BugTracker to access my FrontBase database. Alternatively (a recommended way) you can create your own "Properties.username" file by duplicating "Properties.ak"

55 -The current Wonder source (Oct 31,2007) requires the addition of this property to he Properties file in BugTracker to run properly (Can someone commit this please?)

61 -You can either set Global properties for your database, or you can set them for a specific model. See the Wonder docs for more information about Properties files and database configuration [[ERXConfigurationManager documentation>>http://webobjects.mdimension.com/wonder/api/er/extensions/ERXConfigurationManager.html]]

63 -Here are the Global database connection settings I used for FrontBase. If you are using a different setup, you may want to ask on the mailing list for guidance:

82 -* Create a database named "bug" in your MySQL development database
83 -* Create a user and password with all privileges for that database (or use your mysql root user and password if you wish)

105 -7. Now we want to run the app. The Wonder team has set it up so that you can generate all necessary tables and populate them when you launch the BugTracker application for the first time using a special launch configuration.

107 -You'll see BugTracker launch configurations for creating, creating without dropping, and normal launching. We need to select the BugTracker (create without drop) launch configuration for the initial setup.
