OVERVIEW

There are 4 sections to this document. These sections are:

Section 1:
This section deals editing various project files and is very straight forward.
Again, there is nothing new here and you should know how to do the above relative to the Eclipse IDE that you are using.
Section 2:
This section deals editing the project's pom.xml.
Section 3:
This section deals with creating a Maven jar project using the jar-template. There is nothing new here and you should know how to do the above relative to the Eclipse IDE that you are using.
You should notice that in this section:
1. Items 1 - 8 deal with checking out and disconnecting the jar template from the SVN repository.
2. Items 9 - 12 deal with cleanup, renaming the jar template and converting the project to a Maven project.
3. Items 13 - 20 deal with checking in the renamed project into a new SVN repository specifically for your project.
Section 4:
This section deals with changes that have been made to the JAR template that are not reflected in the documentation.

It should take you approximately 10 - 20 minutes to get your jar component created and customized.

Section 1: The mit-release-plugin-parent Maven Project Reconfiguration

Check-out the maven project for the mit-release-plugin. The SVN repository is:

svn+ssh://svn.mit.edu/sais-sis-common/maven/plugins/mit-release-plugin/trunk

The mit-release-plugin-parent Maven Project Reconfiguration is now complete

Section 2: The sais-moves-web Maven Project Reconfiguration

The sais-moves-web Maven Project Reconfiguration is now complete

Section 3: The Development Environment Setup

Download the following files:

The following 3 properties files are the be used solely and exclusively in the software development environment on an Educational Systems VM. They are NOT to be deployed to the development, test or production servers.
1. Click here to Download the sais-moves-web.properties file . Select Save as to your ${user.home} directory.
2. Click here to Download the sais-moves-web-build.properties file . Select Save as to your ${user.home} directory.
3. Click here to Download the sais-moves-web-test.properties file . Select Save as to your ${user.home} directory.
4. Open the sais-moves-web-build.properties file for editing and change the following properties:
  - mit.maven.release.plugin.version=2.0.21 Change the version number (2.0.21) to the mit-release-plugin version number that you selected in section 1.
  - maven.system.property.cargo.hostname=esvm-1xx.mit.edu Change the hostname (esvm-1xx.mit.edu) to your vm's hostname.
Configure your moves build directories
1. Create the following directories:
  - C:\tmp\movesbuild\build\sais-common-conf\.m2\repository
  - C:\tmp\movesbuild\build\sais-common-conf\servers\oc4j
    
    Please note that the .m2 directory cannot be created using Windows Explorer. To create the .m2 directory, you must open a cmd window, cd to the sais-common-conf directory and use mkdir to create the .m2 directory.
2. Open a cmd window and cd to the C:\tmp\movesbuild\build\sais-common-conf\.m2 directory. Type the following command:
```
linkd repository c:\Users\esuser\.m2\repository
```
  The above command will link your local maven repository to the directory C:\tmp\movesbuild\build\sais-common-conf\.m2\repository.
  
  Do not delete or rename the repository directory. Deleting or Renaming the repository directory will delete your local maven repository. Unlink the repository directory before you delete or rename.
  You can unlink the repostory directory with the following command:
  linkd repository /D
  You must be in the .m2 directory when you execute the above command.
3. cd to the C:\tmp\movesbuild\build\sais-common-conf\servers directory. Type the following command:
```
linkd oc4j c:\oracle-oc4j-10.1.3.5.0-server
```
  The above command will link your local oracle server to the directory C:\tmp\movesbuild\build\sais-common-conf\servers\oc4j.
  
  Do not delete or rename the oc4j directory. Deleting or Renaming the oc4j directory will delete your local oracle server. Unlink the oc4j directory before you delete or rename.
  You can unlink the oc4j directory with the following command:
  linkd oc4j /D
  You must be in the servers directory when you execute the above command.
Configure your moves ui directories
1. Create the following directories:
  - C:\tmp\movesbuild\ui\sais-common-conf\.m2\repository
  - C:\tmp\movesbuild\ui\sais-common-conf\servers\oc4j
    
    Please note that the .m2 directory cannot be created using Windows Explorer. To create the .m2 directory, you must open a cmd window, cd to the sais-common-conf directory and use mkdir to create the .m2 directory.
2. Open a cmd window and cd to the C:\tmp\movesbuild\ui\sais-common-conf\.m2 directory. Type the following command:
```
linkd repository c:\Users\esuser\.m2\repository
```
  The above command will link your local maven repository to the directory C:\tmp\movesbuild\ui\sais-common-conf\.m2\repository.
  
  Do not delete or rename the repository directory. Deleting or Renaming the repository directory will delete your local maven repository. Unlink the repository directory before you delete or rename.
  You can unlink the repostory directory with the following command:
  linkd repository /D
  You must be in the .m2 directory when you execute the above command.
3. cd to the C:\tmp\movesbuild\build\sais-common-conf\servers directory. Type the following command:
4. cd to the C:\tmp\movesbuild\ui\sais-common-conf\servers directory. Type the following command:
```
linkd oc4j c:\oracle-oc4j-10.1.3.5.0-server
```
  The above command will link your local oracle server to the directory C:\tmp\movesbuild\ui\sais-common-conf\servers\oc4j.
  
  Do not delete or rename the oc4j directory. Deleting or Renaming the oc4j directory will delete your local oracle server. Unlink the oc4j directory before you delete or rename.
