<h1>Building Acegi Security System</h1>
<h2>Checking Out from CVS </h2>
<p>This project uses <a href="http://maven.apache.org">Maven</a> as project manager
and build tool. We recommend you to install Maven 1.0.2 or greater before trying
the following. <b>Note there are workarounds at the bottom of this page.</b></p>
<p>To checkout Acegi Security from CVS, execute the following command on a
single line:</p>
<ol>
<pre>maven scm:checkout-project
-Dmaven.scm.method=cvs
-Dmaven.scm.cvs.module=acegisecurity
-Dmaven.scm.cvs.root=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/acegisecurity
-Dmaven.scm.checkout.dir=acegisecurity</pre>
</ol>
<h2>Quick Build</h2>
<p>Often people reading this document just want to see if Acegi Security will work
for their projects. They want to deploy a sample application, and that's about it
(after all, all the reference documentation can be read online at
<a href="http://acegisecurity.sourceforge.net">http://acegisecurity.sourceforge.net</a>).
In this case, execute:</p>
<ol>
<pre>cd $ACEGI_SECURITY/core</pre>
<pre>maven jar:install</pre>
<pre>cd $ACEGI_SECURITY/samples/contacts</pre>
<pre>maven multiwar:multiwar</pre>
<pre>copy $ACEGI_SECURITY/samples/contacts/target/acegi-security-sample-contacts-filter.war $YOUR_CONTAINER/webapps</pre>
</ol>
<p>Then load up your web container and visit
<a href="http://localhost:8080/acegi-security-sample-contacts-filter/">http://localhost:8080/acegi-security-sample-contacts-filter/</a>
(or whatever location is appropriate for your web container).</p>
<h2>Installing commons-attributes-plugin</h2>
<p>To properly integrate Commons Attributes with Maven (as required by
the <a href="/multiproject/acegi-security-sample-attributes/index.html">Attributes Sample</a>),
you need to install an additional plugin.</b></p>
<p>To install the <code>commons-attributes-plugin</code>, execute the following commands:</p>
<ol>
<pre>cd $ACEGI_SECURITY/doc</pre>
<pre>maven plugin:download
-DgroupId=commons-attributes-plugin
-DartifactId=commons-attributes-plugin
-Dversion=2.1</pre>
</ol>
<p>The second (final) command should be executed on a single line.</p>
<h2>Building All JARs</h2>
<p>Sometimes people are already using Acegi Security, and they just want to build the
latest code from CVS. To build all artifacts (JARs) and install them into
your local Maven repository, simple perform a CVS checkout and install the
<code>commons-attributes-plugin</code> (as detailed above), and then
execute:</p>
<ol>
<pre>cd $ACEGI_SECURITY/doc</pre>
<pre>maven multiproject:install</pre>
</ol>
<p>You can then check your <code>$HOME/.maven/repository/acegisecurity</code>
directory and it should contain all of the latest Acegi Security JARs.</p>
<h2>Building The Site</h2>
<p>By "site" we mean the web site you can browse at
<a href="http://acegisecurity.sourceforge.net">http://acegisecurity.sourceforge.net</a>,
which includes the reference documentation and all of the Maven reports.
If you'd like a local copy, simply execute:
<ol>
<pre>cd $ACEGI_SECURITY/doc</pre>
<pre>maven -Dpassword= changelog:create-cvspass</pre>
<pre>maven multiproject:clean multiproject:site
-Dmaven.jar.override=on
-Dmaven.jar.clover-ant=1.3.3_01
</pre>
</ol>
<p>As per the
<a href="http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/changelog/">Maven Changelog Plugin Documentation</a>,
you must tell the plugin the "anonymous CVS pserver" password is blank. This is
why there is the "create-cvspass" command shown above. You should only need to
do this once.</p>
<h2>Memory and Clover Workarounds</h2>
<p>If you get an <code>OutOfMemoryError</code>, simply execute the following before
calling Maven:</p>
<ol>
<pre>set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512m</pre>
</ol>
<p>If you get an <code>[ERROR] Invalid license: Invalid license file [E1202]</code>,
this is because the <code>maven-clover-plugin</code> is using an old version of
<code>clover-ant-xxx.jar</code>. Whilst Acegi Security's <code>project.properties</code>
specifies a newer version, subprojects have an inheritence problem and don't pick
this up (as of the time of writing). To workaround this issue, you need to
specify those override properties on the command line. For example, to execute the
Clover reports for the core subproject, you would do the following:</p>
<ol>
<pre>cd $ACEGI_SECURITY/core</pre>
<pre>maven clover:html-report -Dmaven.jar.override=on -Dmaven.jar.clover-ant=1.3.3_01</pre>
</ol>
<h2>CVS-over-SSH Workarounds</h2>
<p>Another possible problem is related to CVS-over-SSH ("ext" in CVSROOT) appearing to freeze.
The following instructions assume you're an Acegi Security developer who has CVS access
to the project, as if you're not then you shouldn't be trying to use CVS-over-SSH.
The instructions above all relate to goals which use the default, anonymous
pserver CVS repository.</p>
<p>If you really need authenticated SSH-based access, first check your
<code>$ACEGI_SECURITY/build.properties</code> contains a
<code>maven.username</code> equal to your SourceForge username. If your Maven CVS
or SSH commands still don't work, test you have automatic CVS-over-SSH access operational
by executing the following command:</p>
<ol>
<pre>cvs -d :ext:YOUR_SOURCEFORGE_USERNAME@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/acegisecurity</pre>
</ol>
<p>If this CVS command executes without requiring any interaction such as password
entry, you're ready to proceed. If it fails (or requires a password entry), you
probably need to review your CVS setup. This varies depending on your CVS client.</p>
<p>One Windows-based command line CVS-over-SSH-with-auto-login setup that
works very well is to install
<a href="http://www.cvsnt.com/">CVSNT</a> (which has a CVS client console utility)
and
<a href="http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/">PuTTY</a> (download
<code>putty.zip</code>) together, and use
PuTTY's Pageant to automatically authenticate. A resource that describes in detail
how to configure WinCVS (which internally uses CVSNT's command line client) with PuTTY
(including automatic SSH authentication) is
<a href="http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=766&group_id=1">SourceForge's instructions</a>.
One issue with the SourceForge instructions is they forget to mention how to
tell the CVS command-line client to use <code>plink.exe</code>, which is PuTTY's SSH command-line
version. The solution is to execute
<code>set CVS_RSH=C:\Program Files\putty\plink.exe</code>
(or whatever path is appropriate to plink) before running the CVS command line.
In fairness, the SourceForge instructions target the Windows front-end to CVS, whilst
we need the command-line version to work.</p>
<p>It is worth noting that as the Maven project uses the anonymous pserver
repository for most operations, these setup instructions really only apply if
doing something like deploying the site over SSH etc.</p>
