Building SDK & AMPs from Source

ukdavo

Hi there

Can someone please detail how to build the entire Alfresco distribution from Enterprise SVN?

I've got the WARs built using the default build-tomcat task in build.xml but I'm struggling to get the core AMPs and SDK built.

I tried building the SDK using the command "ant -f continuous.xml distribute-sdk". It failed with the following output:

      [zip] Building zip: C:\lib\java\alfresco\alfresco-enterprise\root\build\as
semble\sdk\doc\taglib\alfresco-taglib-doc.zip
    [mkdir] Created dir: C:\lib\java\alfresco\alfresco-enterprise\root\build\ass
emble\sdk\lib
    [mkdir] Created dir: C:\lib\java\alfresco\alfresco-enterprise\root\build\ass
emble\sdk\lib\remote

ce-client\build\dist\alfresco-web-service-client-3.4.d.jar to copy.
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I then tried building the AMPs with "ant -f build.xml distribute-core-amps" but it failed with the following output.

Any ideas?

Regarding the SDK I think I fixed that in the last couple of months since there were some unbuilt dependencies. It looks like you still have the old build system.

I also note that the version being looked for is
alfresco-web-service-client-3.4.d.jar which is not an enterprise jar.

Thanks for replying so quickly. I only checked out the Enterprise code last week so I'm not sure what's going on. I'll try a fresh checkout & build anyway just to make sure I'm not doing anything daft.

OK - I've checked out from HEAD to a new local directory. The WARs build fine.

I've just tried building the SDK with "ant -f continuous.xml distribute-sdk". It starts off with this..

C:\lib\java\alfresco\enterprise-head\root>ant -f continuous.xml distribute-sdk
Buildfile: continuous.xml

init:
     [echo] user.home = C:\Documents and Settings\mdavidson
     [echo] version.number = 3.4.d
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

..then fails with..

e\sdk\doc\taglib
      [zip] Building zip: C:\lib\java\alfresco\enterprise-head\root\build\assemb
le\sdk\doc\taglib\alfresco-taglib-doc.zip

    [mkdir] Created dir: C:\lib\java\alfresco\enterprise-head\root\build\assembl
e\sdk\lib\remote

I'm guessing that the version number is incorrectly set. Where am I supposed to set it? Is it in one of the properties files or am I supported it set it at the command line?

Hmm it gets stranger. It looks like something in the build script has overwritten the root/repository/config/alfresco/version.properties file. It currently contains this..

#
# Alfresco version information
#

# Version label

version.major=3
version.minor=4
version.revision=0
version.label=d

# Edition label

version.edition=Community

# Build number

version.build=r24874

# Schema number

version.schema=4113
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

This bit from continuous.xml looks suspicious:

   <target name="set-build-devbox-number"
           if="alf.build.number">
      <exec executable="svn">
         <arg line="revert ${dir.project.repository.config}/alfresco/version.properties"/>
      </exec>
      <replace file="${dir.project.repository.config}/alfresco/version.properties"
               token="@build-number@"
               value="${alf.build.number}"
               summary="yes" />
      <replace file="${dir.project.repository.config}/alfresco/version.properties"
               token="version.edition=Community"
               value="version.edition=${file.name.codeline}"
               summary="yes" />
   </target>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I'm still reading through the build script so stay tuned..
