Prerequisites
In order to build the examples, you must have Coherence version 3.4.2 or later and a Java
development kit (JDK) 1.4.2 or greater.
$COHERENCE_HOME
Make sure that the COHERENCE_HOME environment variable points to the location of the unpacked Coherence 3.4
(or later) directory.
$JAVA_HOME
Make sure that the JAVA_HOME environment variable points to the location of a 1.4.2 or greater JDK before
building the examples. A Java runtime 1.4.2 or greater is needed to run the examples.
Directory Structure
The directory structure described below is relative to the "examples" directory.
java/bin
Scripts for building and executing examples. There are two sets of scripts. Scripts with no file extension
are bash scripts. Scripts with a .cmd file extension are Windows command scripts. The following description
refers to the script names without specifying the file extension.
| script name |
purpose |
| build |
builds an example |
java/src
All example source. The examples are in the com.tangosol.examples package. The next
level of the package after examples represents a related set of example classes. "contacts"
in com.tangosol.examples.contacts is the contacts example. In other words, the name of
the example collection is the name after com.tangosol.examples. The data model classes used by the examples
are in the "model" package.
java/classes
The class files output from a build. This directory will not exist until the build
script is executed.
java/resource/config
The coherence configuration files required by the examples.
$COHERENCE_HOME/lib
Coherence libraries used for compiling and running the examples.
Build Instructions
Execute the build script with the name of the example collection: "bin/build contacts".
Prerequisites
In order to build the examples, you must have Coherence version 3.4.2 or later for .NET and Visual Studio 2005 or later or Visual Studio 2005 Express or later. To run the examples, you will also need to build the Java examples. The Java version is required because the Coherence*Extend proxy and cache servers require Java. Also, the examples depend on Java example classes that must be built before running the proxy and cache server.
Directory Structure
The directory structure described below is relative to the "examples" directory.
dotnet\src
All example source. The examples are in the Tangosol.Examples namespace. The next level of the name after examples represents a related set of example classes. "Contacts" in Tangosol.Examples.Contacts is the contacts example. In other words, the name of the example is the name after Tangosol.Examples. The data model classes used by the examples are in the Tangosol.Examples.Model namespace.
Each collection of examples has its own Visual Studio 2005 project in the src directory. For example, src contains a project for the contacts example (contacts.csproj and contacts.sln). The contacts example includes an application configuration file, App.config, which references the config files (see below) using relative file paths. If the location of the config files is changed, that new location must be reflected in contacts\App.config.
dotnet\resource\config
The coherence configuration files required by the examples.
Build Instructions
Open the examples project from the src\<example> directory with Visual Studio. Add a reference to the Coherence.dll from the Coherence .NET installation. If you are using .NET 1.1, use the library found in the bin\net\1.1 folder. If you are using .NET 2.0 or higher, use the library found in the bin\net\2.0 folder. In Visual Studio, select Build -> Build Solution from the menu.
The build for the contacts example will copy resource\contacts.csv to the build output directory. contacts.csv is a comma separated value file containing sample contacts information for the contacts collection of examples.
Prerequisites
In order to build the examples, you must have the appropriate C++ library of Coherence version 3.5.1 or later. Also you must have a C++ development environment. To run the examples, you will also need to build the Java examples. The Java version is required because the Coherence*Extend proxy and cache servers require Java. Also, the examples depend on Java example classes that must be built before running the proxy and cache server.
$COHERENCE_CPP_HOME
Make sure that the COHERENCE_CPP_HOME environment variable points to the location of the unpacked Coherence 3.5.1 C++ installation (or later) directory.
Compiler enviroments supported.
Directory Structure
The directory structure described below is relative to the "examples" directory.
cpp\src\contacts
All example source. The examples are in the coherence::examples namespace. The next level of the name after examples represents a related set of example classes. "Driver" in coherence::examples::LoaderExample is the Loader for the contacts example. In other words, the name of the example is the name after coherence::examples.
cpp\src\model
The data model is represented in this directory. The rationale is to show how to utilize an already existing data model and exposing it in Coherence. The model classes does not contain any Coherence specific code to prove this point. However there is a serializer that is associated with each model type. For example the Contact has a ContactSerializer class which purpose is to create register the model type with Coherence and serialization operations.
The generated output will be in the form of a dynamic library.
cpp\config
The coherence configuration files required by the examples.
Build Instructions
For Windows
Open a development environment command prompt. This should have been installed with Visual Studio or the platform SDK. Go to the C++ examples directory and type "bin\build.cmd contacts". This will build both the model and the contacts example executable.
The model will put the model.lib and model.dll file under cpp\model\out. These are needed for building and running the contacts example
The executable contacts.exe will be generated in cpp\contacts\out directory/
As an alternative, in any command window you can cd to the C++ bin directory and run vcvars32.bat before trying to build the examples. With a default install of Visual Studio, the bin dir is "C:\Program Files\Mircorsoft Visual Studio 9.0\vc\bin". Then follow the previous instructions for running the build script.
For Linux/Mac and Solaris
Open a command shell. Go to the C++ examples directory and type "bin/build contacts". This will build both the model and the contacts examples executable.
The model dynamic library and lib file will be put in cpp/model/out. These are needed for building and running the contacts example.
The executable contacts, will be generated in cpp/contacts/out.
