About this page

You must select three names related to your project.  These are:
# an SVN project identifier
# a short acronym for your project
# a project artifact Id.

The following is an explanation for each of the above.

Selection of a SVN project identifier.

The general format of the SVN project identifier is:
{code}
<Domain>-<Product>-<Product type>
{code}
where:
# *<Domain>* is the functional business area(s) that the project is associated with.&nbsp;&nbsp;Examples are: academic, admissions, sfs, admin, etc...
# *<Product>* is a product associated with the <Domain.>&nbsp;&nbsp;Example:&nbsp;products associated with "academic" domain are iap, ogs, subjeval-rpt, onlinereg, etc...
# *<Product type>* is a further refinement of the <Product>.&nbsp;&nbsp;This may be necessary when there are multiple projects with the same <Domain> and <Product>

Here are a few examples of what other projects have used in the past:
||SVN identifier||Domain||Product||Product type|
|academic-onlinereg-web|academic|onlinereg|web|
|academic-ogs-web|academic|ogs|web|
|academic-wtw-services|academic|wtw|services|
|academic-wtw-web|academic|wtw|web|
|sfs-ssb|sfs|ssb||
|sfs-sistim-project|sfs|sistim|project|

Selection of a short acronym for your project.

Project teams have used the <Product> element of the SVN identifier and the short acronym for their project.&nbsp;&nbsp;In the event that the <Product> element is not unique, then the project team would select and combination of the <Product> and <Product type> elements as the short acronym.

Here are a few examples of what other project have used in the past:


The first thing that must be done is to pick a projectName and a projectArtifactId.  These will be used throughout the life time of your project.

The projectName is a short acronym that is used to uniquely identify your project.
The projectArtifactId is the application context under which your project war file will be deployed to the OC4J server.

Once the projectName and projectArtifactId have been selected, they should not be changed.

Here are a few examples of what other project have used in the past:
