17.1 | 9 | = Moving the WebObjects frameworks from a Mac to a Windows machine = |
| 10 | |||
| |
27.1 | 11 | The WebObjects frameworks are part of the Xcode tools distribution (available on the Mac OS X DVD, or as a download from Apple, see below) which cannot be installed on a Windows (or any Linux/UNIX variant) machine directly. So, before developing on Windows, you will need to get access on a Mac, make a archive of the frameworks and move this archive to your Windows machine. You can extract the frameworks from XCode without having to install them on the intermediate Mac. |
| |
17.1 | 12 | |
| |
27.1 | 13 | * Obtain Xcode 2.5 (if you want to work with WebObjects 5.3), or Xcode 3.0 (if you want to work with WebObjects 5.4) at [[ADC>>http://developer.apple.com/tools/download/]] ~-~- these are in the form of large (about 1 GB) disk images. Note that you will need to sign up for an ADC membership, but the "online" membership is free. |
| |
17.1 | 14 | |
| |
27.1 | 15 | * Mount, on a Mac, the DMG file. Then, for XCode 2.5 / Mac OS X Tiger: |
| |
17.1 | 16 | |
| 17 | {{code}} | ||
| 18 | |||
| 19 | cp /Volumes/Xcode\ Tools/Packages/Packages/WebObjectsRuntime.pkg/Contents/Archive.pax.gz /tmp | ||
| 20 | cd /tmp | ||
| |
23.1 | 21 | unzip Archive.pax.gz |
| |
17.1 | 22 | pax -r -f Archive.pax |
| 23 | tar cf WebObjectsRuntime.tar Library System | ||
| 24 | cp WebObjectsRuntime.tar -> Windows | ||
| 25 | |||
| 26 | {{/code}} | ||
| 27 | |||
| |
27.1 | 28 | ... and for XCode 3.0 / Mac OS X Leopard (since Installer packages are created differently in Leopard): |
| 29 | |||
| 30 | {{code}} | ||
| 31 | |||
| 32 | mkdir -p /tmp/wo ; cd /tmp/wo | ||
| 33 | xar -vxf "/Volumes/Xcode Tools/Packages/WebObjectsRuntime.pkg" ; pax -rzf Payload | ||
| 34 | tar cf WebObjectsRuntime.tar Library System | ||
| 35 | cp WebObjectsRuntime.tar -> Windows | ||
| 36 | |||
| 37 | {{/code}} | ||
| 38 | |||
| |
23.1 | 39 | = Create the file structure on your Windows machine = |
| 40 | |||
| |
17.1 | 41 | 1) Create the structure: |
| 42 | C:pple | ||
| 43 | C:ppleocalibraryrameworks (equivalent to /Library/Frameworks on the Mac) | ||
| 44 | C:ppleibraryrameworks (equivalent to /System/Library/Frameworks on the Mac) | ||
| 45 | |||
| 46 | 2) Copy all the frameworks from /System/Library/Frameworks on a Mac that are named Java except for JavaScriptCore and JavaVM to C:ppleibraryrameworks | ||
| 47 | |||
| |
27.1 | 48 | {{code}} |
| 49 | |||
| 50 | mv WebObjectsRuntime.tar/Library/* C:\Apple\Local\Library\Frameworks | ||
| 51 | mv WebObjectsRuntime.tar/System/Library/* C:\Apple\Library\Frameworks | ||
| 52 | |||
| 53 | {{/code}} | ||
| 54 | |||
| |
23.1 | 55 | {{warning}} |
| 56 | |||
| |
17.1 | 57 | 3) If you copied a 5.2, you will need to put a Windows License.key in JavaWebObjects.framework/Resources. If you copied a 5.3, I think it's a universal license key. |
| 58 | |||
| |
23.1 | 59 | {{/warning}} |
| 60 | |||
| |
17.1 | 61 | 4) Create a wobuild.properties file in C:ocuments and Settingsyour user>ibrary with the contents: |
| 62 | wo.woroot=C:/Apple | ||
| 63 | wo.wolocalroot=C:/Apple/Local | ||
| 64 | wo.wosystemroot=C:/Apple | ||
| 65 | wo.homeroot=C:/Temp | ||
| 66 | eclipse.home=C:/Programs Files/eclipse | ||
| 67 | wo.dir.library.frameworks=C:/Apple/Library/Frameworks | ||
| 68 | |||
| |
23.1 | 69 | = Install Eclipse and WOLips = |
| |
17.1 | 70 | |
| |
27.1 | 71 | Install [[Eclipse and WOLips>>http://wiki.objectstyle.org/confluence/display/WOL/Install+WOLips+with+Eclipse+Update+Manager]] |
| |
23.1 | 72 | |
| 73 | = Notes = | ||
| 74 | |||
| |
17.1 | 75 | That should be it, I think? The things that are problematic right now on Windows: |
| |
27.1 | 76 | 1) The ##woproject/.patternset## don't work quite right on Windows with older versions of WOLips. If you don't have subfolders in your Resources/Components/etc, you can work around it by converting ##Components~/~//etc/## to ##Components/##**, same w/ Resources and WebServerResources. Alternatively you can use a recent nightly build of WOLips where this bug has been fixed. |
| |
17.1 | 77 | 2) Couple images have backgrounds that should not |
| 78 | 3) Outline view in component editor is not right | ||
| |
27.1 | 79 | 4) AutoOpenInBrowser doesn't work unless you override Application.//isSupportedDevelopmentPlatform to return true//** |
| |
17.1 | 80 | |
| 81 | I THINK that was it, but there might have been a couple other misc items .. I'll have to go back through and doublecheck. |
