Brasato installation as eclipse project

download the latest snapshot from the cvs:

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.olat.org:/usr/local/cvs co -d mvnbrasato -r MAVEN-1865 olat3

check in the Navigator view if eclipse builds the classes under src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/classes If not, rebuild the project.



adjust the source path if you would like to debug in eclipse.



make sure that your server.xml in <tomcathome>/conf looks like

<!-- Brasato Tomcat Server Configuration File --> <Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN" debug="0"> <Service name="Catalina"> <Connector port="8080" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="100" debug="0" /> <Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="localhost" debug="0"> <Host name="localhost" debug="0" appBase="webapps"> <Context path="/demo" docBase="C:/development/workspace/mavenbrasato/src/main/webapp" debug="0" reloadable="false" /> </Host> </Engine> </Service> </Server>
Now start tomcat and everthing should work.

You should see about the following output to the console:

A good place to start looking at the code is by setting a breakpoint in class SessionDispatcher.java and follow the debugger.

Or open the class SimpleDemoController.java and set breakpoints to

1. the constructor

2. both event methods 

protected void event(UserRequest ureq, Component source, Event event) {
	// called when a component fires an event
}

protected void event(UserRequest ureq, Controller source, Event event) {
	// called when a subcontroller (e.g. the dialogcontroller) fires an event
}

Check also the developers guide for explanations of the directory structure. And don't miss to walk through the Hello World Example for more information about how to start your first controller with a velocity template and internationalisation.
