View source for SMILA/Development Guidelines/Setup for JAXB code generation

=== Introduction ===

This page describes additional setup steps you need to do if you want to use JAXB to generate classes from XML schema descriptions for SMILA.

=== Steps to install needed libraries ===

# Setup a build library as described in [[SMILA/Development Guidelines/Howto build a SMILA-Distribution]]. In this document we will use {{path|lib/}} as the root of it.
# The required JAXB compiler libraries are contained in our [http://ubuntuone.com/312LdFKCXLYfapEpxLMR9v package of the SMILA build libraries]. If you want to collect them on your own, use these instructions:
## Download the JAXB reference implementation 2.1.6 or above from [http://jaxb.java.net/ http://jaxb.java.net/]
## unpack it with (see [https://jaxb.dev.java.net/2.1.6/  here]) <source lang="text">java -jar <JAXB-version>.jar </source>  
## copy the following into your <tt>lib/xjc</tt> 
##* all jars in the {{path|jaxb-ri-<version>/lib/}} 
##* <tt>InterfacesXJCPlugin.jar</tt>, you can download it [https://www.dropbox.com/s/fiegug07oygn9uk/InterfacesXJCPlugin.jar here] 

Your build lib directory should now look at least like this:
<source lang="text">
lib/
   ant-contrib/
      ant-contrib-1.0b3.jar
   xjc/
      jaxb-api.jar
      jaxb-impl.jar
      jaxb-xjc.jar
      InterfacesXJCPlugin.jar
</source>

=== Generate Sources  from Command line ===

#  Put <tt>[http://dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/rt/org.eclipse.smila/trunk/SMILA.builder SMILA.builder]</tt> into the same folder as the bundle for which you are generating the folder (for all SMILA bundles this is the case after a checkout).      
#  To generate the classes, you can now use:<source lang="text">
ant -Dlib.dir=<SMILA-Build-Lib-Dir>
</source>

The JAXB classes should now be generated in the <tt>code/gen</tt> directory of your bundle.
