Well, after you checkout the whole Wonder directory which has a file hierarchy inside with all the various collections of Wonder frameworks, example apps, README's, and also source code for things other than WO apps/frameworks too, you can then follow the instructions in BUILD.txt in the root directory (by "root", I mean the Wonder directory itself).

Now, I can see why you are confused. The wiki instructions said follow INSTALL.txt, which AFAIK was correct when I wrote that in June 27th. Since then the nerd build from source instructions have been moved to BUILD.txt.

Installing from the Wonder tree, using the Wonder ant builds installs all the Wonder frameworks in /Library/Frameworks.


For me this is only important for deployment since I use embedded builds (Fred, don't even think about that right now!) and the embedding ffeature of the WOLips deployment build tasks pulls copies of the installed Wonder frameworks from /Library/Frameworks.

During development, my app or frameworks (generall known as "projects") refers to the Wonder projects that are in my workspace (which really are like "alias" or "shortcut" links back to those individual projects in the Wonder source tree that I am interested in.

Fred, please feel free to identify a wiki page that is too "mechanical" that needs some conceptual embellishment of the "What THis Procedure Does" type explanation!

Kieran,

Can you further expound here for the neophytes. When you say 'you can install from the same tree'(when you do a CVS download), do you mean when you build/deploy your app, all the imported & referenced projects are compiled into the deployment bundle/woa/directory or whatever?

Take for example the BugTracker tutorial where you import 21 PW projects which are all referenced in the Build Path of BugTracker as 'Projects' NOT 'Libraries'. How would this app get deployed? And what would the deployment object consist of?

Or is this line of questioning off track - would it be better to have BugTracker reference all the PW *frameworks*(and not Projects) as added 'WO Frameworks' in the Build Path window?

This is the most confusing aspect of WO/Eclipse development - so much is done mechanically following some tutorial without really understanding how all the participating frameworks (WO & Local) get used and deployed.

I know this may appear as so basic to experienced practitioners, but is confusing as hell to me.

Thanks

Fred

Simon,

Downloading the whole tree and importing has the advantage that you can install form the same tree, so the embedded frameworks (which come from the install locations) are the same code as you have linked to workspace.
