System Requirements

In order to use Tuscany DAS there are some minimum requirements:

Software	Download Link
Operating systems: Windows XP SP2
Tuscany SDO C++ (from the trunk)	To compile and install Tuscany SDO C++ follow the instructions on https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tuscany/cpp/sdo/GettingStarted.html page. But instead of download the source from Tuscany downloads page, download the SDO C++ source from the trunk: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tuscany/cpp/sdo/
libxml2 version 2.6.20	You need to download and install libxml2, iconv and zlib from http://www.zlatkovic.com/libxml.en.html. Please read the installation notes for libxml2 particularly regarding it's pre-req's iconv and zlib on Windows.
iconv latest version	You can find iconv for windows here: http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?groupname=gnuwin32&filename=libiconv-1.9.2-1-lib.zip&use_mirror=ufpr

Installing and Compiling Tuscany DAS C++ on Windows

1. Downloading the Source Code

1.1 Download the contents under https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tuscany/cpp/das/ into directory <tuscany_das_cpp>.

2. Preparing Environment

2.1 The following environment variables are required:

• TUSCANY_SDOCPP=<path to tuscany sdo for c++ directory>

• LIBXML2_HOME=<path to libxml2 directory>

• ICONV_HOME=<path to iconv directory>

3. Compiling using Visual Studio Express

3.1 Build the source using Visual Studio Express solution under directory <tuscany_das_cpp>/VSExpress/tuscany_das/.

4. Compiling using Apache Ant (does not compile test cases yet)

4.1 Follow the instructions on <tuscany_das_cpp>/README_ANT_INSTALL to set up Apache Ant correctly.

4.2 Execute the following command on <tuscany_das_cpp> directory:

ant

5. Installing

5.1 Set environment variable TUSCANY_DASCPP=<tuscany_das_cpp>/deploy/

Test Cases

Setup

• Download the latest version of Postgres Core and ODBC Driver. You can find it here: http://www.postgresql.org/download/.

• Install both, Postgres Core and ODBC Driver, on your OS.

• The test cases access a data source using DSN, das_test by default access a DSN named "DAStestcases" using "postgres" user with "tuscany" password. However this settings can be modified on getConnection function defined on <tuscany_das_cpp>/runtime/test/src/main.cpp:

  ...
  std::string dsn = "DAStestcases";
  std::string user = "postgres";
  std::string password = "tuscany";
  ...

Running

To run test cases you just need to execute the file:

<tuscany_das_cpp>/VSExpress/tuscany_das/das_test/Debug/das_test.exe

The output of all tests must show “OK”.

Requirements:

• Postgres server must be running accepting connection from localhost.

Samples

CompanySample

This sample shows how to load data from a RDB source, using RDB DAS, into a SDO graph, then retrieve data from it, modify the graph and update the data source based on the modified graph.
