	1	+== Introduction ==
2	2
3		-As of March 25th, 2011 the Wonder source code is now maintained on [GitHub|https://github.com/] at [https://github.com/projectwonder]. You'll need to be familiar with the [Git|http://git-scm.com/] Source Code Management system. [Here's|WO:Getting Started with Git] a good place to start. You will use Git to checkout a local copy of the repository (a "clone" in Git terms) allowing you to have direct access to the Wonder source.
	3	+Instead of downloading the Wonder binaries, working from the latest source code directly can have some advantages such as:

7		-Instead of constantly re-downloading and installing the latest Wonder binaries you should work directly with the latest source code. It has several advantages including:
8		-
9		-* You'll learn a lot about WebObjects, EOF and Object-Oriented Patterns
10		-* Easily search, browse and even modify and improve Wonder
11		-* Work with a specific revision, which is key for teams, quality control and development cycles
	5	+* Learn a lot about WebObjects and EOF (and Java development styles)
	6	+* Easily browse and search the source
	7	+* Work with a specific source control version (teams, quality control, development cycles)
	8	+* Provide opportunities to submit patches for bug fixes or enhancements
12	12	* Add logging statements in Wonder source so you can better understand what is going when tracking down hard to find bugs
13	13	* Discover the many Hidden Treasures of Wonder.

	14	+As of March 25th, 2011, Wonder is maintained on [[GitHub>>https://github.com/]]. So [[Git>>http://git-scm.com/]] is what we use to get a local clone of the repository allowing us to directly use Wonder source.

26	26	git clone git://github.com/projectwonder/wonder.git WonderSource

	24	+# Navigate into the working copy root
	25	+cd WonderSource
	26	+
	27	+# If you are still using old WebObjects 5.3.3, then you need to execute one git command at this point
	28	+# before you build Wonder to switch to the branch that is source-compatible with WO 5.3.3. See the tip at the bottom of the page.
	29	+
	30	+# Build the frameworks from the source (Assumes you are using WebObjects 5.4.3,
	31	+# which is currently compatible with 'master' branch. See note below for WebObjects 5.3.3 compatible install)
	32	+ant frameworks

	34	+# Install the frameworks (this just copies the built frameworks from ~/Roots to
	35	+# the runtime Frameworks directory, usually at /Library/Frameworks)

	42	+If you are still stuck on WebObjects 5.3.3, for whatever reason, then you need to checkout and switch to the Wonder_5_0_0_Legacy branch *before* you build (before you run 'ant frameworks'). And this is *much* easier with git than it used to be with subversion. Just one command:

	44	+{code}
	45	+git checkout --track origin/Wonder_5_0_0_Legacy

	82	+{{info value="Custom Development Enviroment File layout using Custom wolips.properties"}}
	83	+
	84	+If you have a custom wolips properties file for a specific workspace and you want to have a specific Wonder clone for that workspace, you can simply link your custom wolips properties file to a soft link named build.properties in the working copy root directory. The Wonder build script will supersede all other filesystem layout poperties with the properties in that file.
	85	+
	86	+For example:
	87	+
	88	+{code}
	89	+$ cd my/special/purpose/clone/of/Wonder
	90	+$ ln -s ~/Library/Application\ Support/WOLips/wolips.custom.properties build.properties
	91	+{code}
	92	+
	93	+An example of where this approach might be used would be when you have different projects (perhaps in a specially designated workspace) that use a specific version of WebObjects and a specific version or branch of Wonder.
	94	+
	95	+*Tip:* Specify a custom build directory for Wonder by adding the property 'wo.external.root' to the custom wolips properties file, for example
	96	+{code}
	97	+wo.external.root=/Users/mike/Developer/special/directory/Roots
	98	+{code}
	99	+
	100	+*Tip:* A custom WebServer install directory can be specified to Wonder by adding the property 'wo.server.root' to the custom wolips properties file also.
