7 If you want to use Wonder in your applications (and why woundn't one) you must be correctly setup with:
8
9 * eclipse + wolips > see tutorial about installation and operation.
10 * Maven > see the Maven [[doc:WOL.Quick Start]] tutorial.
11 * plugins like [[m2eclipse>>url:http://m2eclipse.codehaus.org/||shape="rect"]] which supports Maven-eclipse integration.
12 * Wonder sources which then are built and installed in your local repository.
13
14 One reasonable way to get and maintain the Wonder sources is have a directory which holds all the sources (see here: [[Download Wonder Source>>url:http://wiki.objectstyle.org/confluence/display/WONDER/Download+Wonder+Source%2C+Build+and+Install||shape="rect"]]), then use Maven to install and build Wonder (see here: [[doc:WOL.Building the wonder source code with maven]]).
15
16 Several things you should know, currently:
17
18 * Wonder is built using a maven "build profile", e.g. "mvn clean install -P wo53" builds things for a WebObjects 5.3.x environment and "mvn clean install -P wo54" builds things for a WebObjects 5.4.x environment.
19 * The only frameworks which are different because of this are ERExtensions and WOOgnl.
20 * Because of this difference you must specify which version you want. For instance, you may want the ERExtensions-5.0.0-SNAPSHOT-wo53.jar, or the ERExtensions-5.0.0-SNAPSHOT-wo54.jar. You specify by adding a "classifier", which would have the value of wo53 or wo54. The other frameworks should not have this classifier.
21
22 With all the tools ready, it's time to make a Wonder application.
23
24 ~1. Make a new project File > New > Other project, choose a Maven project:[[image:attach:wolimmave2.gif]]
25
26 2. Hit Next
27
28 3. Hit Next again[[image:attach:wolimmavena.gif]]
29
30 4. Select an archtype, use the local catalog, select the woapplication-archtype, hit Next:[[image:attach:wolimmavenb.gif]]
31
32 (What does one do if one selects the "Default Local" and one sees: "No archetypes available for this catalog."? What can one do to correct this? -rrk (ray at ganymede.org) 2022-06-24)
33
34 5. Fill in appropriate parameters for the woapplication-archtype to set up your new application, hit Finish!

37
38 The eclipse plugins now create your application!
39
40 You should create a WOApplication Run Configuration and add the projects build folder's Java to the classpath as detailed here: [[doc:Maven Running or Debugging as WO Application]], otherwise classes won't be found, etc.
