1 +== WOLips 3.4.x, and later, Side-note ==

3 +{{warning}}
4 +If you are updating an older project, make sure you get the latest build.xml file. Create a new project, then copy/paste the contents of the fresh build.xml file into your project's build.xml file.
5 +{{/warning}}
6 +
7 +For WOLips 3.4.x and later, while embedding is built-in, it's not enabled by default. To enable embedding:
8 +
9 +* make sure you are in the WO Explorer view
10 +* right-click your project folder, select Properties, select WOLips Deployment
11 +* check the related, if not all, options under Embed Frameworks
12 +
13 +To create a versioned/dated bundle of your app and resources:
14 +
15 +* make sure you are in the Navigator view
16 +* edit build.properties, and add:
17 +* ##build.app.name=MyApp-2009-07-14##
18 +
19 +There is a known bug with WO 5.4.x (for those not using the latest Wonder release) regarding proper linking to your web server resources within the embedded frameworks. The WOFrameworksBaseURL isn't set correctly. To do this you'll need to programmatically set this within your Application constructor:
20 +
21 +* ##setFrameworksBaseURL("/WebObjects/MyApp-2009-07-14.woa/Frameworks");##
22 +
23 +Within build.properties (I may need to be corrected on this), the best approach to linking your embedded framework's web server resources automatically is to include (however the bug noted above breaks this):
24 +
25 +* ##frameworksBaseURL=/WebObjects/$build.app.name.woa/Frameworks##
26 +
27 +And finally, there is a bug in the build.xml file that you may need to clean-up:
