5 > ---------

7 + The server can now easily be compiled without worrying about setting up any
8 + of the CLASSPATH's, or setting the path to JacORB. It's all self contained.
9 +
10 + Typical sequence to compile;
11 +
12 + ./configure
13 + make build
14 + make install prefix=/some/path
15 + make clean
16 +
17 + In more detail, the first line ensures that the required libraries are
18 + available, and sets the Makefiles up so they know where everything is.
19 + The second line compiles all of the code and creates a JAR file in the
20 + build directory.
21 + The install line installs the server and libraries to a given location,
22 + along with the configuration files.
23 + Finally, the last line cleans up.
24 +
25 + Running
26 + -------
27 +
28 + It is recommended that the components are started up in the following order.
29 +
30 + (This can be on multiple hosts if required, as long as the order is correct).
31 +
32   Core
33   ClientInterfaceMain
34 < DBInterfaceMain
34 > DBInterface
35   FilterManager
36 < RootFilterMain
36 > RootFilter
37   FilterMain
38 + Client
39  
40 < It is not necessary to start both the ClientInterfaceMain and DBInterfaceMain,
41 < the server will handle only one. Multiple Filter's can be started as required.
40 > It is not necessary to start both the ClientInterfaceMain and DBInterface,
41 > the server will handle only one or both. Multiple Filter's can be started
42 > as required.
43  
44   These are all loaded through the ComponentManager. More details on how to
45   operate this will be provided later on. Typing "make run" will make an
46   attempt to load it up.
47  
48 + Check build/etc/default.properties to set the startup list and order.
49 +
50   nb. You will need to ensure that the relevant libraries are in the
51      build/lib directory. See the README in there for details.
52 +
53 + Makefile
54 + ========
55 + The following targets are available;
56 +
57 + build
58 +
59 +  Compile the entire server package, include the IDL file. Generates the
60 +  JAR file for the final package.
61 +
62 + run
63 +
64 +  Run's the server from the JAR file in /build.
65 +
66 + clean
67 +
68 +  Cleans all compiled code, and javadoc pages.
69 +
70 + distclean
71 +
72 +  Also cleans files left by configure, including the libraries.
73 +
74 + install
75 +
76 +  Installs the server to a given directory. Also takes a prefix;
77 +    make install prefix = /usr/i-scream
78 +
79 + cvsbuild
80 +
81 +  Builds any tagged version of the server from CVS. This saves the need to
82 +  checkout a version to build it, as it's all done automatically;
83 +    make install rev = RELEASE_1
84 +  Default tag is HEAD.
85 +
86 + javadoc
87 +
88 +  Builds all the javadoc pages in the `doc' directory.
89 +
90 + buildutil
91 +
92 +    (it is recommended you run a "make clean" first)
93 +  Builds a seperate JAR file, in `build' called `iscream-util.jar'.
94 +  This file contains just the uk.ac.ukc.iscream.util package for
95 +  use in other parts of the system, such as the clients.
96 +
97 + createtable
98 +
99 +  Creates the ipacket table in the mySQL database. This is required for
100 +  the database side of the server.
101 +
102 + droptable
103 +
104 +  Drops an ipacket table from the mySQL database if one exists.
