4 > Compiling
5 > ---------
6  
7 < uk.ac.ukc.iscream.core.Core
8 < uk.ac.ukc.iscream.clientinterface.ClientInterfaceMain
8 < uk.ac.ukc.iscream.dbinterface.DBInterfaceMain
9 < uk.ac.ukc.iscream.filtermanager.FilterManager
10 < uk.ac.ukc.iscream.rootfilter.RootFilterMain
11 < uk.ac.ukc.iscream.filter.FilterMain
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 < The following sequence of commands should suffice. They will probably need
14 < to be run in seperate terminal windows.
10 > Typical sequence to compile;
11  
12 < make runcore
13 < make runclientinterface
14 < make rundbinterface
15 < make runfiltermanager
20 < make runrootfilter NAME=root
21 < make runfilter NAME=filter1
12 > ./configure
13 > make build
14 > make install prefix=/some/path
15 > make clean
16  
17 < If all is working this will ensure every component, including the IDL, is
18 < compiled as required before execution.
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 < nb. you will need to ensure your classpath is correctly set prior to
26 <    running, otherwise java will fail to find the jacorb classes and the
27 <    XML parsing packages.
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 > DBInterface
35 > FilterManager
36 > RootFilter
37 > FilterMain
38 > Client
39 >
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.
