Building I-Card Manager Application

Revision as of 03:53, 28 March 2007 by Sergey.parityinc.net (Talk | contribs) (→‎'''Exporting I-Card Manager application as a Web Archive (WAR) file''')

Asant and Ant

We use script asant, which is located in the J2EE 1.4 SDK bin directory, to build the source code of this application. asant is a wrapper around Ant which is a Java-based build tool like make, which has been developed under the auspices of the Apache Software Foundation. Ant version 1.5.3 and 1.6 beta 1 may also be used to build and deploy the applications.

Note: The I-Card Manager application bundle comes with pre-built binaries. To deploy these binaries and avoid building the application, consult the I-Card Manager installation instructions.

Exporting I-Card Manager application as a Web Archive (WAR) file

A Web archive (WAR) file is a packaged Web application that can be exported to test, publish, and deploy the resources developed within a Web project.

To export a WAR file from a Web project, do the following:

  • Right click on a Web project folder and select Export from the pop-up menu. Then select WAR file in the Export window and then select Next.
  • Specify the Web project you want to export (this field is primed if you used the pop-up menu to open the wizard), and specify a location for the new WAR file
  • Optional: Optionally, supply WAR export Options, such as whether or not to include Java™ source files in the WAR, and whether to overwrite any existing resources during the export process. Source files are not usually included in a WAR file, because they are not necessary for the server to run the web application.
  • Click Finish.

Note: The Eclipse Web Tools Platform should be installed. More about WTP.
