Java SCA requires the following:
- JDK 5.0+ (J2SE 1.56.0+)
- Apache Maven (2.02.71+)
- Subversion (1.56+) or TortoiseSVN (1.56.x+)
- Eclipse PDE (Ganymede )

Building the SCA source code :
Code Block |

mvn -Psetup clean installcd trunk mvn -fae clean install |
It should work even if you start with an empty Maven local repository, and it should always work, however when you are building for Tuscany for the first time there are a lot of dependencies which must be downloaded so the first build can take a long time and it may fail with problems retrieving the dependencies.

The SCA build consumes a good amount of memory, in case you are seeing issues during the build, set a MAVEN_OPTS environment variable to allocate more memory for the build process. Windows : SET MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=384m" |

In order to generate the necessary project files to import the SCA modules to Eclipse, you can use the maven eclipse plugin
Code Block |
---|
mvn -fae -Peclipseeclipse:eclipse |
Now , launch your Eclipse IDE, select File->Import->Existing projects into Workplace, and then import the project from SCA Modules into your Eclipse Workspace.
Using Eclipse PDE
To help with development in an OSGi environment Tuscany also has a build profile to setup the Eclipse Plugin Development Environment:

mvn -fae -Peclipse

Now set the "Target Platform" in your Eclipse IDE by Now, let's set the "Target Platform" in your Eclipse IDE by following the steps below :
- Inside eclipse, select File->Open File" and open "distribution/all/target/features/tuscany.target"
- click "Set as target platform" on the upper-right side of the overview window that opened
Then as when using eclipse:eclipse launch your Eclipse IDE, select File->Import->Existing projects into Workplace, and then import the project from SCA Modules into your Eclipse Workspace.
There are also some Tuscany Eclipse There are also some Tuscany Eclipse code templates available:

- Missing projects - Sometimes developers add or remove project dependencies. These show up with error message "The project cannot be built until build path errors are resolved". This is often a sign that your Eclipse workspace is out of sync with your local repository or the svn repository. The full remedy is to refresh your local repos (svn update), rebuild your local repos (mvn clean install -U), regenerate Eclipse projects (mvn -Declipse), reimport projects in Eclipse, and clean/rebuild your projects. You may be able to do less than this full refresh with simple changes, but the full refresh is often needed for major changes.
- Project won't build - Sometimes a particular project will not build despite repeated efforts. Consider if this project is necessary to the task at hand. You may be able to delete the problematic Eclipse project and continue with other work.

Some plugins used in the Tuscany build requires a explicit dependency on some classes from JDK tools.jar, which is in a different place in the MAC OS environment.
We have created duplicate profiles in Tuscany to accommodate the most used user tasks
- Running a build : there is a default profile for the mac environment properly configuring the tools.jar property
Code Block mvn clean install
- Creating Eclipse IDE project files : there is a "eclipse-mac" profile
Code Block mvn -Peclipse-mac
Update your maven settings.xml (%user_home%/.m2/settings.xml)
Updating your settings.xml with proper property configuration will make all profiles work in a MAC OS environment.

<tools.jar>${java.home}/../Classes/classes.jar</tools.jar>

There are a few simple guidelines when developing for JAVA SCA:
- The basic coding style used is the described at Sun Java coding standards but the main thing is to be consistent with the existing code you're updating, so for example, if you're updating a method that uses the braces on the same line style don't add code with the hanging braces style.
- Always include the Apache License Headers on all files (both source code files and resource files such as xml documents)
- Include a descriptive log message for checkins, for example "fixed such and such problem".

While Tuscany does not yet have an official style or template, here are some templates that folks have been using and have been checked into the build which are stored at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/java/etc/
...
Folder Names: Please use all lowercases and dashes in folder names (like in the jar names)
- Maven artifact id = tuscany-<folder name>
Package names: Package names within modules should include the module name so that source code can be located in the source tree easily. So, for example, java/sca/module/implementation-java would be in package structure org.apache.tuscany.implementation.java.*

We use the term Module to refer to the leaf of maven tree.
- sca/pom.xml's parent will be pom/parent/pom.xml
- Other poms will use the pom from the parent folder as parent pom
- Group id: org.apache.tuscany.sca
- Version of our modules will be specified once in java/sca/pom.xml, child poms don't need specify a version as they get it from their parent
- pom names begin Apache Tuscany SCA
- Eclipse projects are generated for all built modules using mvn eclipse:eclipse
Adding a new module and not ready to integrate?
'work-in-progress' modules can be worked on in the same source tree and yet not break the top-down build. You can do this by not listing your module(s) in java/sca/modules/pom.xml.

This section has talked about how to get set up ready to develop Tuscany. If you need to import existing samples into Eclipse to work on there are some instructions here. These are instructions for 1.x but should work OK on 2.x.

The magic -Dwtpversion=1.5 option will add the WTP Web project nature to
all the Eclipse projects with <packaging>war</packaging> in their Maven
pom.xml. You'll then be able to add these projects to a WTP Tomcat or
Geronimo Server configuration, to publish and run them straight from
your Eclipse workspace.h3:
