  • Java: we use the Java version 1.6 JDK; there are a wide variety of packagings and installation methods if you don't already have it; ask the net about this one. Make sure your JAVA_HOME environment variable is set correctly. (On isda-build1, set JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.6.0.)
  • Subversion: if "svn --version" results in "command not found", you need subversion. Again, packagings vary; your operating system may be able to get it for you, or download it from http://subversion.tigris.org.
  • maven: if "mvn -version" results in "command not found", you need to download the latest version of maven (currently 2.0.7) from http://maven.apache.org/download.html and install it locally, making sure to add maven's bin directory to your path.
  • Repository access: if "svn ls svn+ssh://svn.mit.edu/zest/thalia" doesn't do something useful, you can't check out the code; you need to be in the zest-cvs moira group to access the repository.
  • For the UI build only: if "lzc --help" doesn't give you useful help information for the OpenLaszlo compiler, you need to install version 4.0.2 from http://www.openlaszlo.org; this is hairy enough that it's been split off into a separate wiki page: OpenLaszlo.  If you're on isda-build1, make sure /home/lps-4.0.2/bin is in your PATH.

BUILDING THE FRONT ENDNOTE

: THIS IS THE NEW SETUP WHICH IS BEING TESTED AS OF 3JAN2008.  FOR THE OLD UI BUILD INSTRUCTIONS, SEE THE CHILD PAGE OF THIS ONEN.B.: These instructions replace the old interactive build using the OpenLaszlo server's dynamic compilation facilities. 

  1. Check out the Thalia code: 
    svn checkout svn+ssh://username@svn.mit.edu/zest/thalia
  2. For a release, create the release branch:
    svn cp ui/trunk ui/branches/thaliaUI<version>-sprint<num>
    ...then build the .swf files that comprise the UI, checking them into the IME trunk in the process:
    cd thalia/ui/branches/thalia<ver>-sprint<num>
    mvn clean package
  3. If Alternatively, if you just want to build the UI locally:
    cd thalia/ui/trunk
    mvn clean compile
    The .swf files will be in the newly-created (by Maven) target subdirectory.
