<P>Welcome to the Tuscany SCA Java subproject project. We look forward to your participation and try to help you get on board. Feel free to ask your questions on the mailing list.</P>

<P>Here are some general guidelines we use in this project.</P>
<UL>
	<LI>Java SCA sub-project aims to provide enterprise-grade service infrastructure based on SCA.</LI>
	<LI>Tuscany SCA is not just a reference implementation. We encourage innovation based on the tenets of SCA. A lot of work we do provides feedback to the specifications.</LI>
	<LI>The Java SCA infrastructure should provide flexibility and choice. It should not dictate programming models but support many.</LI>
	<LI>The Java SCA infrastructure is very modularized and is designed to be highly extensible so users can customize it to fit their needs.</LI>
</UL>



<H3><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-Prerequisites"></A><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-Prerequisites"></A> Prerequisites</H3>

<P>Java SCA requires the following:</P>
<UL>
	<LI><A href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">JDK 5.0&#43; (J2SE 1.5.0+)</A></LI>
	<LI><A href="http://maven.apache.org/" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">Apache Maven (2.0.7+)</A></LI>
	<LI><A href="http://subversion.tigris.org/" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">Subversion (1.2+)</A> or <A href="http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">TortoiseSVN (1.4.x+)</A></LI>
</UL>


<H3><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-GettingSourcecode"></A><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-GettingSource"></A> Getting Source code</H3>

<P>The Java SCA project Subversion repository is located at <A href="https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/sca-java-1.x/trunk/" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/sca-java-1.x/trunk/</A>.<BR>
The repository can also be viewed online at <A href="http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tuscany/sca-java-1.x/trunk/" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tuscany/sca-java-1.x/trunk/</A></P>

<P>Anyone can check code out of Subversion. You only need to specify a username and password in order to update the Subversion repository, and only Tuscany committers have the permissions to do so.</P>

<H4><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-CheckingoutcodefromSubversion"></A>Checking out code from Subversion</H4>

<P>Use the command as follows (note that it uses http scheme so if you're a committer change it to https):</P>
<DIV class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><DIV class="codeContent panelContent">
<PRE class="code-java">
svn checkout http:<SPAN class="code-comment">//svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/sca-java-1.x/trunk/ sca-java-1.x</SPAN>
</PRE>
</DIV></DIV>

<H4><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-CommittingChangestoSubversion"></A>Committing Changes to Subversion</H4>

<P>Any Tuscany committer should have a shell account on svn.apache.org. Before you can commit, you'll need to set a Subversion password for yourself. To do that, log in to svn.apache.org and run the command svnpasswd.</P>

<P>Tuscany committers should configure these properties in the svn per-user config. On Unix-like systems, this area appears as a directory named .subversion in the user's home directory. On Win32 systems, Subversion creates a folder named Subversion, typically inside the Application Data area of the user's profile directory (C:\Documents and Settings\&lt;user name&gt;\Application Data\Subversion, which, by the way, is usually a hidden directory). </P>

<P>Please make sure the following properties are set in the &quot;config&quot; file:</P>

<P>Here is a walk through of <A href="sca-java-get-started-with-coding.html" title="SCA Java Get Started with Coding">key methods/functions</A> which help you get started with SCA Java development.</P>

<H3><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-CodingGuidelines"></A><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-CodingGuidelines"></A> Coding Guidelines</H3>

<P>There are a few simple guidelines when developing for JAVA SCA:</P>
<UL>
	<LI>The basic coding style used is the described at <A href="http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">Sun Java coding standards</A> but the main thing is to be consistent with the existing code you're updating, so for example, if you're updating a method that uses the braces on the same line style don't add code with the hanging braces style.</LI>
</UL>


<UL>
	<LI>Always include the Apache License Headers on all files (both source code files and resource files such as xml documents)</LI>
</UL>


<UL>
	<LI>Include a descriptive log message for checkins, for example &quot;fixed such and such problem&quot;.</LI>
</UL>


<P>Some other useful suggestions:</P>
<DIV class="panel" style="border-style: solid;border-width: 1px;"><DIV class="panelHeader" style="border-bottom-width: 1px;border-bottom-style: solid;"><B>Clean Code</B></DIV><DIV class="panelContent">
<UL class="alternate" type="square">
	<LI>use correct visibility, private, default, public, avoid protected</LI>
	<LI>make methods static if not using object state</LI>
	<LI>make sure javadoc is in sync or remove that javadoc</LI>
	<LI>no javadoc on overridden methods</LI>
	<LI>test cases in same package to avoid having to over-open access to methods</LI>
	<LI>don't create artificial dependencies by using constants from another module</LI>
	<LI>don't extend/implement a 'constant' interface</LI>
	<LI>avoid creating another private layer over a public interface/spi</LI>
	<LI>remove old code, don't leave it commented out, very confusing</LI>
	<LI>use functional programming names for functions that convert an object</LI>
	<LI>add javadoc to private methods</LI>
	<LI>review class javadoc and make sure it's accurate</LI>
	<LI>inline methods used only once, or make them clean static functions</LI>
	<LI>put utility methods in a Util class with package visibility</LI>
	<LI>use static imports</LI>
	<LI>use scoped variables</LI>
	<LI>no stars in OSGi exports</LI>
	<LI>correct use of generics, see the effective Java book</LI>
</UL>
</DIV></DIV>

	<LI>use static imports for assert statements</LI>
</UL>

<P>While Tuscany does not yet have an official style or template, here are some templates that folks have been using and have been checked into the build which are stored at <A href="https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/java/etc/" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/java/etc/</A></P>

<H4><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-Namingconventionstoincreaseconsistency"></A>Naming conventions to increase consistency</H4>

<UL class="alternate" type="square">
	<LI>Maven artifact id = tuscany-&lt;folder name&gt;</LI>
</UL>


<P><B>Package names:</B> Package names within modules should include the module name so that source code can be located in the source tree easily. So, for example, java/sca/module/implementation-java would be in package structure org.apache.tuscany.implementation.java.&#42;</P>

<H3><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-Testing"></A><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-Testing"></A> Testing</H3>

<P>Tuscany uses plain junit test cases to perform unit and integration testing, below is an example that can also be used as a template for writing new test cases; it demonstrates how to bootstrap the Tuscany SCA runtime in your test case, and because they are based on junit, you can run it from your IDE of choice or from Maven.</P>

<H3><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-HowdoIgetmyJIRAsintoarelease%3F"></A>How do I get my JIRAs into a release?</H3>
<P>You can always propose a release and drive the release with the content that you want. Another way to get a JIRA into a release is by providing a patch or working with other community members (volunteers) to help you get the problem fixed. You can also help by providing test cases.</P>

<P>Each release is managed by a release manager. Make sure that the Release Manager is aware of why a fix to a JIRA is important to your business. In general, the best attempt is made to include as many JIRAs as possible depending on the level of community help. The voting mechanism in the JIRA system can be used to raise the importance of a JIRA to the attention of the release manager. Adding comments in the JIRA would help the release manager understand why a JIRA is important to include in a given release. </P>

<H3><A name="SCAJavaDevelopmentGuide-Howisareleasedone%3F"></A>How is a release done?</H3>
<P>Anyone can volunteer to be a release manager and drive a release. Based on Apache guidelines, a release requires at least three PMC +1 votes and more +1s than -1s. A release can not be vetoed so a -1 does not block a release.  The steps for how to create a Tuscany release are documented <A href="http://tuscany.apache.org/making-releases.html" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">here </A></P>
