3 3  Instead of downloading the Wonder binaries, working from the latest source code directly can have some advantages such as:
4 4  
5 -* Learn very much about WebObjects and EOF (and java dev styles?)
6 -* Easily browse and search the source
7 -* Work with a specific svn version (teams, quality control, development cycles)
8 -* Provide opportunities to submit patches for bug fixes or enhancements
5 +* Ability to conveniently browse and search the source code and learn from the wisdom and experience of the WO committers
6 +* Put breakpoints in and step through Wonder source when debugging your projects
7 +* Provide opportunities to submit patches to bugs you might find in Wonder
9 9  * Add logging statements in Wonder source so you can better understand what is going when tracking down hard to find bugs
10 -* Discover the many Hidden Treasures of Wonder
9 +* Work with specific versions of Wonder in a project - good practice for quality control, especially for teams

14 -Open a terminal and navigate to a directory where you want to maintain a source "working copy" and just use the following easy-peasy commands to download the Wonder source. Note that the build and installation commands are slighly different for WebObjects 5.4.X. So procedures for both WebObjects 5.4.X and 5.3.X are shown below. Pick you poison:
13 +* Open a terminal shell and navigate to the directory where you want to maintain the WonderSource directory and decide on a name of the folder that will contain the Wonder source. For this example, we will use the name //WonderSource//
14 +* Perform initial checkout of Wonder source tree from Subversion head using the following command. This checks out the source into the directory //WonderSource//, automatically creating //WonderSource// if it does not exist.

54 -Assuming you already installed Wonder from source using the method outlined above, you can use the following procedure to upgrade to a newer, or just different version. Note that the procedure for both WebObjects 5.4.X and 5.3.X are outlined below. They are the same except for the last 3 ant commands.

67 -# Update the source to the HEAD revision (aka latest). You can also use a specific svn
68 -# repository version instead of the term 'HEAD', for example 11272
69 -svn update --force --accept theirs-full --revision HEAD

31 +== Build and Install Wonder ==
73 73  
74 -# Build from the latest source
75 -ant -Dwonder.patch=54 frameworks
33 +* Follow the "Building with Ant" instructions in the BUILD.txt document in the Wonder directory
76 76  
77 -# Install the latest built frameworks
78 -sudo ant -Dwonder.patch=54 frameworks.install
35 +{{warning title="WebObjects 5.4.X Compatability"}}
79 79  
80 -{{/code}}
37 +The default instructions in Wonder's BUILD.txt produce binaries that are compatable with WO 5.3.3. If you are using WO 5.4.X, then you need to add the "-Dwonder.patch=54" option to the ant commands. For example:
81 81  
82 -{{code title="Procedure for WebObjects 5.3.X"}}
39 +ant \-Dwonder.patch=54 frameworks; sudo ant \-Dwonder.patch=54 frameworks.install
83 83  
84 -# Navigate to the Roots directory that was automatically created by the initial Source installation procedure above
85 -cd ~/Roots/
41 +Alternatively, to avoid having to type the \-Dwonder.patch=54 option every time, one can create a build.properties file at the root of the Wonder directory that contains the following line : wonder.patch=54
86 86  
87 -# Delete all installed frameworks whose names match the built frameworks in this Roots build folder
88 -for FRAMEWORK in `echo *.framework`; do sudo rm -r /Library/Frameworks/${FRAMEWORK}; done

93 -# Update the source to the HEAD revision (aka latest). You can also use a specific svn
94 -# repository version instead of the term 'HEAD', for example 11272
95 -svn update --force --accept theirs-full --revision HEAD
47 +This complete procedure results in you having

97 -# Clean, build and install the frameworks
98 -ant clean; ant frameworks; sudo ant frameworks.install
