Smack Source Distribution<br>
</font><br>
<p>
This document provides detailed information for developers that wish to
compile and make changes to the Smack source code.
<p>For additional developer resources, please visit:
<a href="http://www.igniterealtime.org/projects/smack">
http://www.igniterealtime.org/projects/smack</a>. The Smack build process is based on Gradle. Visit the
<a href="http://www.gradle.org">Gradle website</a>
for more information and downloads.
<p>
This documentation is divided into two sections:
<ol>
<li> <a href="#setup">Setup</a> -- how to setup your environment for Smack development.
<li> <a href="#tasks">Build tasks</a> -- tasks that can be performed using the build program.
</ol>
<p><a name="setup"><b><font color="#0066cc">1.</font> Setup Your Environment</b></a><p>
Getting your machine ready for Smack development requires a few steps. Wherever
possible, instructions are provided for both Unix/Linux and Windows users.
<p>
<b><a name="javaSetup">Configure Java</a></b>
<ul>
A Java Development Kit (JDK) must be installed and setup on your machine. To test the installation,
open a shell in a Unix or a MS-DOS prompt in Windows. Check your version of
Java with "javac -version".
If Java isn't installed, download a copy from the
<a href="http://java.oracle.com/">Java website</a>.
</ul>
<b><a name="antSetup">Configure Gradle</a></b>
<ul>
Download Gradle from the <a href="http://www.gradle.org">Gradle website</a>. Follow
the setup instructions for your operating system.
</ul>
<p><b><a name="checkout">Test the Build Script</a></b><p>
<ul>
<p>
Now, invoke the build tool to compile the Smack source code
<p>
</font><code>gradle build</code><font face="verdana, arial, helvetica" size=2>
<p>
If the build tool is invoked correctly and Smack compiles, you've correctly
configured your copy of the Smack developer distribution.
</font>
</ul>
<p><b>Finished!</b><p>
<ul>
If you've gotten this far, you've finished setting up the Smack developer
distribution. Now, read below to learn about all of the tasks that you can perform
with the build tool.
</ul>
<br><br>
<p><b><a name="tasks"><font color="#0066cc">2.</font> Gradle Tasks</a></b><p>
The list of build tasks is below.
<br><br>
For a list of the commands and a brief description from the command line, type
<code>gradle tasks</code>. For more complete help, read the documentation below.
<br><br>
To execute a build task, type <code>gradle [options] targetname</code> where "targetname" is
one of the targets listed below:
<ul>
<li><a href="#build">build</a>
<li><a href="#javadoc">javadocAll</a>
<li><a href="#clean">clean</a>
<li><a href="#eclipse">eclipse</a>
<li><a href="#projects">projects</a>
</ul>
<p>
Each task is documented with a syntax guide and description. Optional paramaters
for each task are enclosed with braces.
<p><b><a name="build">build</a></b>
<ul>
<i>Syntax:</i><p>
<code>
gradle build <br>
</code>
<p><i>Description:</i></p>
Compiles all the Smack source code and run the test suite. The
artifacts of the sub-projects can be found
at <code><subprojectDir>/build/libs</code>
<p>[<a href="#tasks">return to task list</a>]
</ul>
<p><b><a name="javadoc">javadocAll</a></b>
<ul>
<i>Syntax:</i><p>
<code>
gradle javadocAll<br>
</code>
<p><i>Description:</i></p>
JavaDocs all Smack source code and saves it under <code>build/javadoc</code>.
<p>[<a href="#tasks">return to task list</a>]
</ul>
<p><b><a name="clean">clean</a></b>
<ul>
<i>Syntax:</i><p>
<code>
gradle clean<br>
</code>
<p><i>Description:</i></p>
Cleans your Smack distribution directory by deleting compiled class
files and artifacts.
<p>[<a href="#tasks">return to task list</a>]
</ul>
<p><b><a name="eclipse">eclipse</a></b>
<ul>
<i>Syntax:</i><p>
<code>
gradle eclipse<br>
</code>
<p><i>Description:</i></p>
Generates Eclipse configuration files for every project. After
running <code>gradle build eclipse</code> you can import Smack in
Eclipse by selecting <code>File</code> → <code>Import...</code>
→ <code>Existing Projects into Workspace</code>
<br>
Make sure to check "<code>Search for nested projects</code>". It may be
also a good idea to create a working set for Smack, and add all Smack
projects to that working set.
<br>
Note that it's recommended to also call the <code>build</code> target
when generating the Eclipse files, or else Eclipse may not find all
requirements.
<p>[<a href="#tasks">return to task list</a>]
</ul>
<p><b><a name="projects">projects</a></b>
<ul>
<i>Syntax:</i><p>
<code>
gradle projects<br>
</code>
<p><i>Description:</i></p>
Show all Smack projects and their description.
<p>[<a href="#tasks">return to task list</a>]
