System Requirements

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

Software Download Link
Operating systems:
  • Windows XP SP2
  • Linux
Axis2C Release 0.92 http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/download.cgi
Please download and follow the installation instructions. Ensure you can run the Axis2C samples
libxml2 version 2.6.20 http://xmlsoft.org/downloads.html
Most Linux systems have libxml2 by default. On Windows you need to download and install libxml2 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.
These libraries will need to be on the PATH in order to run Tuscany SDO.

Installing Tuscany SDO for C++

Getting Tuscany SDO for C++ working with the binary release on Linux
  1. Extract the binary tar package to a folder
  2. Add the *install_dir*/lib directory to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable

Getting Tuscany SDO for C++ working with the source release on Linux
  1. Extract the source tar package to a folder <tuscany_sdo>
  2. The following environment variables are required:
    • LIBXML2_INCLUDE=<path to libxml2 includes>
    • LIBXML2_LIB=<path to libxml2 lib>
      Note: If you are using the default installation of libxml2 these are usually:
      LIBXML2_LIB=/usr/lib
      LIBXML2_INCLUDE=/usr/include/libxml2
    • AXIS2C_HOME=<path to axis2c version 0.92>
  3. Build the source with the following command sequence:
    • ./configure
    • make
    • make install
    NOTE: If you don't provide a --prefix configure option, it will by default install into /usr/local/tuscany/sdo
  4. Run the test:
    • cd to <tuscany_sdo>/runtime/core/test
    • ./tuscany_sdo_test

Getting Tuscany SDO for C++ working with the binary release on Windows
  1. Unzip the supplied zip file to a folder
  2. Add the *install_dir*\bin directory to the PATH environment variable

Getting Tuscany SDO for C++ working with the source release on Windows
  1. Unzip the supplied source zip file
  2. The following environment variables are required:
    • LIBXML2_HOME=<path to installed libxml2>
    • AXIS2C_HOME=<path to axis2c version 0.92>
  3. You must have set up the environment for Microsoft Visual C++ tools. The build command will call vcvars32 to set the environment. Ensure the directory containing this is on your path. This will be where you installed the compiler.
  4. Build the source:
    • cd <to where you unzipped the source>
    • build
    This will build all the projects and put the required output into the 'deploy' directory

    Alternatively, open the workspace tuscany_sdo.dsw in Visual Studio 6 - you can build projects individually or build the test project to build all its dependencies. Running the test project should give a list of tests passed - this is currently 108 tests, no failures.
  5. Add the 'deploy'\bin directory PATH environment variable

Samples
