These are the products I used to build mondrian. Install all of the products
marked 'required'. (I use /-es in paths because I am run MKS on
Windows 2000, and it makes things simpler.)
In the following, the symbol ${project.location} means the root of your
source tree.
| Product | Required? | Version | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| JDK | Yes | 1.1 or later (I use version 1.3.1.) | Available from http://developer.java.sun.com/.
I downloaded j2sdk-1_3_1_02-win.exe, and extracted to E:/jdk1.3.1_02. Set
JAVA_HOME to same, and CLASS_PATH to %JAVA_HOME%/lib/dt.jar. |
| Ant | Yes | 1.4.1 or later | I downloaded
jakarta-ant-1.4.1-bin.zip, and extracted to E:/jakarta-ant-1.4.1.
Edit ${project.location}/make.bat. to reference your Ant
install. |
| Jikes | No | Available from http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/jikes/.
I downloaded jikes-1.15-windows.zip, and extracted jikes.exe
to C:/winnt/system32. Then I modified the relevant line of ${project.location}/build.xml:
<property name="build.compiler" value=" |
|
| Xerces | Yes | 1.4.1 or later | Download Xerces-J-bin.1.4.1.zip (or similar) from http://xml.apache.org/xerces-j/,
and extract xerces.jar to ${project.location}/lib. |
| Intellij IDEA (a Java IDE) | No | 2.5.1 | You can download a 30-day evaluation copy from http://www.intellij.com/idea/.
Follow the instructions in Install.txt in idea-2_5_1.zip
to there.
Create a project To use Ant build, click the '6: Ant Build' tab, click '+', choose |
| hsql Database Engine | No | 1.61 |
The library comes with the source distribution. Available from http://hsqldb.sourceforge.net/.
I extracted |
| JavaCUP (parser generator) | Included with source distribution, as lib/javaCupClasses.zip. |
v0.10g (with modifications) | I modified version v.0.10g to add an Ant task, and to output error messages in a format which Emacs can parse. |
As follows:
cd ${project.location}
make
You first need a database. I wanted to distribute a hsqldb database, but the 20Mb data set turns into when loaded and indexed but with indexes, the 300,00 rows/20Mb data set turned into a 400Mb datafile. So, two choices:
${project.location}/demo/FoodMart.mdb.
The JDBC connect string will be jdbc:odbc:MondrianFoodMart.FoodMartTables.sql,
FoodMartData.sql and FoodMartIndexes.sql in ${project.location}/demo/. You may need to modify the scripts for your database's
particular DDL
syntax.Edit the "FoodMartTest" target in build.xml.
Run
cd ${project.location}
make FoodMartTest
Indentation 4. Tab stop 4. Use tabs, not space. 'Berkeley' bracing convention. Use braces even for single-line blocks. Declare variables as near to their first use as possible. Don't initialize variables with 'dummy' values just to shut up the compiler. No line longer than 79 characters. Javadoc comments on methods are written in the active ('Collects garbage.') not imperative ('Collect garbage.') When editing HTML documents, don't use an editor which reformats the HTML source (such as Word).
