David Avendasora 112.1 3 Instead of downloading the Wonder binaries, working from the latest source code directly can have some advantages such as:
miguel77mex 77.1 4
David Avendasora 112.1 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
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.

14 {{tip title="Now with more Git"}}
David Avendasora 114.1 15 As of March 25th, 2011 the Wonder source code is now maintained on [GitHub|https://github.com/] at [https://github.com/projectwonder]. So you'll need to be familiar with the [Git|http://git-scm.com/] Source Code Management system. You will use it to checkout a local copy of the repository (a "clone" in Git terms) allowing you to have direct access to the Wonder source.

David Avendasora 118.1 18 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 clone Wonder source to your computer.

David Avendasora 124.1 50 If you are still using old WebObjects 5.3.3, then you need to execute this git command to switch to the branch for WebObjects 5.3.3: {code}git checkout --track origin/Wonder_5_0_0_Legacy{code}
51 You should get output like this:
52 {noformat}
53 Branch Wonder_5_0_0_Legacy set up to track remote branch Wonder_5_0_0_Legacy from origin.

David Avendasora 118.1 59 == Building ==
David Avendasora 112.1 60
David Avendasora 124.1 61 In general, it is recommended that you use Hudson/Jenkins to build your WebObjects frameworks and applications, but it is not required. You can build either from the Terminal as outlined below, or from within Eclipse directly.
David Avendasora 118.1 62
David Avendasora 124.1 63 {{tip title="Pro Tip"}}
64 If you use Hudson/Jenkins to build your WebObjects applications, then you do not need to actually build or install the Project Wonder frameworks on your development machine, just having the individual Wonder source code projects open in your eclipse workspace is sufficient. Your Hudson/Jenkins server will need the built frameworks installed. See the [Hudson/Jenkins Page|WO:Installing and Using the Hudson build server] for more information.
65 {{/tip}}
David Avendasora 118.1 66
David Avendasora 124.1 67 {{note title="Requires WebObjects"}}
68
69 These build instructions require the WebObjects frameworks to already be installed in the normal location:
70 * Mac OS X: {{/System/Library/Framworks/}}
71 * Linux: {{/Library/Frameworks}}
72
73 Otherwise you will get compiler errors like this:
74 {noformat}
75 [wocompile] /Wonder/WonderGit/WonderSource/Frameworks/Core/JavaWOExtensions/Sources/com/webobjects/woextensions/JSAlertPanel.java:10:
76 package com.webobjects.appserver does not exist
77 [wocompile] import com.webobjects.appserver.WOContext;

82 You can build the Wonder frameworks from the source code you just cloned to the default (##/Roots##) directory with the following command:
83
84 ===== Build the frameworks from the "cloned" source. =====
85
86 {{code value="none"}}
David Avendasora 112.1 87 ant frameworks
David Avendasora 106.1 88 {{/code}}
David Avendasora 90.1 89
David Avendasora 124.1 90 == Installing ==
David Avendasora 106.1 91
David Avendasora 124.1 92 Assuming you already cloned and installed Wonder from source using the method outlined above, you can use the following procedure pull the latest changes into your local repository.
93
94 ===== Install the frameworks =====
95
96 {{code value="none"}}
David Avendasora 112.1 97 sudo ant frameworks.install
98 {{/code}}
David Avendasora 106.1 99
David Avendasora 124.1 100 This copies the built frameworks from ##/Roots## to the runtime Frameworks directory:
David Avendasora 106.1 101
David Avendasora 124.1 102 * Mac OS X: ##/Library/Framworks/##
103 * Linux: ##/Local/Library/Frameworks##
David Avendasora 106.1 104
David Avendasora 124.1 105 You can combine the build and install steps by simply executing this Ant command:
miguel77mex 77.1 106
David Avendasora 124.1 107 {{code value="none"}}
108 sudo ant frameworks frameworks.install
David Avendasora 118.1 109 {{/code}}
miguel77mex 77.1 110
David Avendasora 124.1 111 == Upgrading ==
David Avendasora 118.1 112
David Avendasora 124.1 113 This will clean out the existing versions of the frameworks. This isn't strictly necessary, you could just re-install over the top of the old frameworks, but deleting then manually copying over the new ones will clean up any old frameworks that are no longer included in the standard build.
miguel77mex 77.1 114
David Avendasora 124.1 115 1. h5. Navigate to the original Wonder source directory that you created above during initial source installation
David Avendasora 118.1 116
David Avendasora 124.1 117 {{code value="none"}}
David Avendasora 112.1 118 cd /path/to/WonderSource
David Avendasora 118.1 119 {{/code}}

David Avendasora 124.1 121 1. h5. Pull the changes you do not have and merge them with your local repository
David Avendasora 118.1 122
David Avendasora 124.1 123 {{code value="none"}}
David Avendasora 112.1 124 git pull
125 {{/code}}
David Avendasora 106.1 126
David Avendasora 124.1 127 1. h5. Build the frameworks.
David Avendasora 120.1 128
David Avendasora 124.1 129 {{code value="none"}}
David Avendasora 120.1 130 ant frameworks
David Avendasora 124.1 131 {{/code}}
David Avendasora 120.1 132
David Avendasora 124.1 133 1. h5. Navigate to the Roots directory that was automatically created by the initial Source installation procedure above
134
135 {{code value="none"}}
136 cd ~/Roots/
David Avendasora 120.1 137 {{/code}}
138
David Avendasora 124.1 139 1. h5. Delete all installed frameworks whose names match the built frameworks in this Roots build folder
140
141 {{code value="none"}}
142 for FRAMEWORK in `echo *.framework`; do sudo rm -r /Library/Frameworks/${FRAMEWORK}; done
143 {{/code}}
144
David Avendasora 106.1 145 {{info}}
146
David Avendasora 112.1 147 If you have any trouble or errors due to your local repository getting hosed, then simply delete the entire local repository directory, the \~/Roots directory and just start over using the initial source clone and installation procedure outlined above.

David Avendasora 112.1 151 {{info value="Custom Development Enviroment File layout using Custom wolips.properties"}}
David Avendasora 106.1 152
David Avendasora 112.1 153 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.
David Avendasora 106.1 154
David Avendasora 112.1 155 For example:
David Avendasora 106.1 156
David Avendasora 124.1 157 {code:none}
158 cd my/special/purpose/clone/of/Wonder
159 ln -s ~/Library/Application\ Support/WOLips/wolips.custom.properties build.properties
David Avendasora 112.1 160 {code}
David Avendasora 106.1 161
David Avendasora 112.1 162 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.
David Avendasora 106.1 163
David Avendasora 112.1 164 *Tip:* Specify a custom build directory for Wonder by adding the property 'wo.external.root' to the custom wolips properties file, for example
David Avendasora 124.1 165 {code:none}
David Avendasora 112.1 166 wo.external.root=/Users/mike/Developer/special/directory/Roots
167 {code}
David Avendasora 106.1 168
David Avendasora 112.1 169 *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.
