Build Properties

Anchor

Configuration properties may be specified by certain files which are looked for automatically by the script. The first definition of a property will be used by the build, i.e. Ant does not work like many other things where the last value wins. There are three locations that that the build script attempts to load properties from, in the order specified:

1. ${user.home}/ole-build.properties

   Info
   User Home Locations Unix: /home/username/ole-build.properties Mac OS X: /Users/username/ole-build.properties Windows XP: C:/Documents and Settings/username/ole-build.properties Windows Vista: C:/Users/username/ole-build.properties

2. ${institution.build.properties.file} (location set in the above ole-build.properties)
3. ${build.environment}-build.properties
4. The build/properties directory in the ole project. You should not generally change the properties here. Override them in one of the above files.
   • build/properties/build.properties
   • build/properties/database.properties
   • build/properties/directory.properties
   • build/properties/logging.properties
   • build/properties/batch.properties
   • build/properties/email.properties
   • build/properties/url.properties
   • build/properties/cas.properties
   • build/properties/rice.properties
   • build/properties/spring.properties
   • build/properties/web.properties
   • build/properties/b2b.properties

Build Target Overview

To deploy OLE, you can use the dist or dist-local targets of the OLE build.xml. To execute the OLE unit tests, you can use the test-local or continuous-integration targets.  The dist-local and test-local targets assume that you are using an IDE for compilation. If not, you will need to add this line to your build properties file and use the make-source target, too: war.classes.directory=work/web-root/WEB-INF/classes. The continuous-integration target is intended for use within an automated testing tool like Hudson. See the setup instructions and the help target in the build file itself for more information.

Directory & File Creation

OLE requires that certain external directories and files exist at runtime.
