  • Javaedge Setup and Installation
    APPENDIX A ■ ■ ■ JavaEdge Setup and Installation Throughout the book, we have used the example application, JavaEdge, to provide a practical demonstration of all the features discussed. In this appendix, we will walk you through setting up the tools and applications required to build and run JavaEdge, as well as take you through the steps needed to get the JavaEdge application running on your platform. Environment Setup Before you can get started with the JavaEdge application, you need to configure your platform to be able to build and run JavaEdge. Specifically, you need to configure Apache Ant in order to build the JavaEdge application and package it up for deployment. In addition, the JavaEdge application is designed to run on a J2EE application server and to use MySQL as the back-end database. You also need to have a current JDK installed; the JavaEdge application relies on JVM version 1.5 or higher, so make sure your JDK is compatible. We haven’t included instruc- tions for this here, since we are certain that you will already have a JDK installed if you are reading this book. However, if you do need to download one, you can find it at http://java. sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp. Installing MySQL The JavaEdge application uses MySQL as the data store for all user, story, and comment data. If you don’t already have the MySQL database server, then you need to obtain the version applicable to your platform. You can obtain the latest production binary release of MySQL for your platform at http://www.mysql.com.

This book by Michael Hartl came so highly recommended that I had to try it, and the Ruby on RailsTM Tutorial is what I used to switch back to Rails again.’’ —From the Foreword by Derek Sivers (sivers.org) Formerly: Founder, CD Baby Currently: Founder, Thoughts Ltd. ‘‘Michael Hartl’s Rails Tutorial book is the #1 (and only, in my opinion) place to start when it comes to books about learning Rails. It’s an amazing piece of work and, unusually, walks you through building a Rails app from start to finish with testing. If you want to read just one book and feel like a Rails master by the end of it, pick the Ruby on RailsTM Tutorial.’’ —Peter Cooper Editor, Ruby Inside www.it-ebooks.info ‘‘Grounded in the real world.’’ —I Programmer (www.i-programmer.info), by Ian Elliot ‘‘The book gives you the theory and practice, while the videos focus on showing you in person how its done.
