5 5  === Introduction ===
6 6  
7 -JavaMonitor is a web-based tool used to configure and maintain deployed WebObjects applications. It is capable of handling multiple WebObjects applications, multiple instances of each application, and multiple WebObjects Applications Servers. In most cases you'll have one instance of JavaMonitor controlling all instances of your applications, even if they are spread across multiple Application Servers.
3 +wotaskd and JavaMonitor were open sourced when WebObjects 5.4 was released in 2007. In 2008 and 2009, the source was modified and included in Project Wonder. This is the list of additions that were added to the Wonder versions of the tools.
8 8  
9 -wotaskd (WebObjects task daemon) is the WebObjects Deployment tool that manages the instances on an Application Server. It's used by Monitor to propagate site configuration changes throughout the site's application hosts.
10 -
11 -Apple released the original wotaskd and JavaMonitor to the community as open source in WebObjects 5.4. The source was then quickly modified and included in Project Wonder. Substantial improvements in both functionality and look-and-feel have been made over the years. These improved versions of **wotaskd.woa** and **JavaMonitor.woa** are available as standard Wonder applications.

13 -=== Where to get them ===
14 -
15 -You can either download them pre-built from [[Wonder's Hudson build server>>http://webobjects.mdimension.com/hudson/job/Wonder54/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/dist/]] or build them from the source code.
16 -
17 -To build them from the [[Wonder source code>>WONDER:Download Wonder Source, Build, Install and Upgrade]], simply run the following command from the Wonder directory at the root of the Wonder source.

20 -ant frameworks deployment.tools -Dwonder.patch=54 -Ddeployment.standalone=true

24 -
25 -* *ant*: calls Apache Ant. It is assumed that you have this already installed.
26 -* *frameworks*: tells Ant to build the "frameworks" target. This may not be needed if you already have Wonder built and installed in a location Ant can find automatically.
27 -* *deployment.tools*: tells Ant to build the "deployment.tools" target. This is the target that builds both wotaskd.woa and JavaMonitor.woa. You absolutely need this one.
28 -* *\-Dwonder.patch=54*: tells Wonder to build for WebObjects version 5.4. You need this if you are building against Wonder Trunk. Some branches don't need it, but it doesn't hurt either.
29 -* *\-Ddeployment.standalone=true*: argument will embed the required Wonder and WebObjects frameworks in built applications. You need this to ensure that the required frameworks are embedded in the built applications.

171 +wotaskd and JavaMonitor are now full Wonder applications, and needs Ajax.framework, ERExtensions.framework, ERJars.framework, JavaWOExtensions.framework and JavaMonitor.framework to work correctly. If you get wotaskd.woa and JavaMonitor.woa from the //Wonder-latest-Applications-54// archive, those frameworks are NOT embedded inside wotaskd.woa and JavaMonitor.woa, so either build them from source and embed the frameworks or copy the frameworks into the //appserver// user home (on OS X 10.5, it's in ///var/empty//).
