Sub-Projects |
| 8 |
------------ |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
JNode has been divided into several sub-projects in order to keep it "accessible". These sub-projects are: |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
JNode-All The root project where everything comes together |
| 13 |
JNode-Core The core java classes, the Virtual Machine, the OS kernel and the Driver framework |
| 14 |
JNode-FS The Filesystems and the various block device drivers |
| 15 |
JNode-GUI The AWT implementation and the various video & input device drivers |
| 16 |
JNode-Net The Network implementation and the various network device drivers |
| 17 |
JNode-Shell The Command line shell and several system commands |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Each sub-project has the same directory structure: |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
<subprj>/build All build results |
| 22 |
<subprj>/descriptors All plugin descriptors |
| 23 |
<subprj>/lib All sub-project specific libraries |
| 24 |
<subprj>/src All sources |
| 25 |
<subprj>/.classpath The eclipse classpath file |
| 26 |
<subprj>/.project The eclipse project file |
| 27 |
<subprj>/build.xml The Ant buildfile |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Eclipse |
| 30 |
------- |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
JNode is usually developed in Eclipse. (It can be done without) |
| 33 |
The various sub-projects must be imported into eclipse. Since they reference each other, it is advisably to import them in the following order: |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
1) JNode-Core |
| 36 |
2) JNode-Shell |
| 37 |
3) JNode-FS |
| 38 |
4) JNode-GUI |
| 39 |
5) JNode-Net |
| 40 |
6) JNode-Builder |
| 41 |
7) JNode-All |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
Building |
| 44 |
-------- |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Execute: |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
On Windows: build.bat cd-x86-lite |
| 49 |
On Linux: build.sh cd-x86-lite |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Or in Eclipse, execute the "cd-x86-lite" target of all/build.xml. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
The build will result in the following files: |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
all/build/cdroms/jnode-x86-lite.iso bootable CD image |
| 56 |
all/build/cdroms/jnode-x86-lite.iso.vmx VMWare configuration file |
