Note that as of repository version 11387 (Sep 27, 2010) the Wonder repository URL is the only difference between the Wonder source procedure for WebObjects 5.3.3 and WebObjects 5.4.3 installation. For your copy/paste convenience, the full procedures for both WebObjects 5.4.X and 5.3.X are shown below. WebObjects 5.4.3 and the Wonder branch for same is recommended and is where the most features are expected to be found. 15 15 16 -{{ noformat}}16 +{{code title="Procedure for WebObjects 5.4.X"}} 17 17 18 -svn co http://wonder.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wonder/trunk/Wonder WonderSource 18 +# Checkout the source from subversion repository into a new directory named "WonderSource" 19 +# Note instead of HEAD, you can use a specific svn version number if you want 20 +svn co http://wonder.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wonder/branches/Wonder_5_0_0_WebObjects_5_4_Branch/Wonder --revision HEAD WonderSource 19 19 20 -{{/noformat}} 22 +# Navigate into the working copy root 23 +cd WonderSource 21 21 22 -* As often as you prefer you can keep this up to date as follows: 25 +# Build the frameworks from the source (BTW, they get built into a directory named Roots in your home dir) 26 +ant frameworks 23 23 24 -{{noformat}} 28 +# Install the frameworks (this just copies the built frameworks from ~/Roots to 29 +# the runtime Frameworks directory, usually at /Library/Frameworks) 30 +sudo ant frameworks.install 25 25 32 +{{/code}} 33 + 34 +{{code title="Procedure for WebObjects 5.3.X"}} 35 + 36 +# Checkout the source from subversion repository into a new directory named "WonderSource" 37 +# Note instead of HEAD, you can use a specific svn version number if you want 38 +svn co http://wonder.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wonder/trunk/Wonder --revision HEAD WonderSource 39 + 40 +# Navigate into the working copy root 41 +cd WonderSource 42 + 43 +# Build the frameworks from the source (BTW, they get built into a directory named Roots in your home dir) 44 +ant frameworks 45 + 46 +# Install the frameworks (this just copies the built frameworks from ~/Roots to 47 +# the runtime Frameworks directory, usually at /Library/Frameworks) 48 +sudo ant frameworks.install 49 + 50 +{{/code}} 51 + 52 +== Source Frameworks Upgrade Installation == 53 + 54 +Assuming you already installed Wonder from source using the method outlined above, and you are using the branch of Wonder appropriate to your WebObjects version, you can use the following procedure to upgrade to a newer, or just different version, as long as that version is greater than repository version 11387 (Sep 27, 2010, which was when the WO 5.4 branch was first introduced). 55 + 56 +{{code title="Procedure for WebObjects 5.3.X or 5.4.X"}} 57 + 58 +# Navigate to the Roots directory that was automatically created by the initial Source installation procedure above 59 +cd ~/Roots/ 60 + 61 +# Delete all installed frameworks whose names match the built frameworks in this Roots build folder 62 +for FRAMEWORK in `echo *.framework`; do sudo rm -r /Library/Frameworks/${FRAMEWORK}; done 63 + 64 +# Navigate to the original Wonder source directory that you created above during initial source installation 26 26 cd /path/to/WonderSource 27 -svn up 28 28 29 -{{/noformat}} 67 +# Update the source to the HEAD revision (aka latest).
