I created a small set of instructions that helped me get started using torque with M.E.T.A. Maybe this will help you
----------------------------------------------------------------------- Creating a new application with META (Maven Environment for Turbine Appliations) Inplace development mode:: 1. Install your servlet container and create a build.properties file in your home directory. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- # # build.properties - for META # # # Application Server configuration # maven.appserver.home = <directory_for_appserver_home> maven.appserver.name = tomcat # # app config # turbine.app.name = <appname> turbine.app.flavor=turbine-2.3.1 # # create the om layer interfaces for torque # turbine.app.om.layer=torque # # don't create demo pages # turbine.app.setup.demo=false # # Inplace dev mode # turbine.plugin.mode=inplace # # Initial ID values for the ID_TABLE # initialID = 1100 initialIDValue = 100 initialIDStep = 10 # # database settings # torque.database=mysql torque.database.driver = com.mysql.jdbc.Driver torque.database.user = myuser torque.database.password = mypassword torque.database.buildUrl = jdbc:mysql://localhost/<appname> torque.database.createUrl = jdbc:mysql://localhost/<appname> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. change to the webapps directory of your servlet container. 3. Create the skeleton for the app % maven -Dturbine.setup.properties=~/build.properties turbine:setup 4. change into your webapps/<newapp> directory 5. modify the <appname>-schema.xml accordingly (found in src/schema/<appname>-schema.xml) 6. Create SQL (all commands run from webapps/<appname> directory 1. create the database % maven torque:create-db 2. generate SQL code % maven turbine:sql 3. put SQL in database % maven torque:insert-sql 7. Compile your application % maven java:compile no need to deploy since we are inplace development mode ----------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Jeffery Painter 2431 Reunion Meadows Lane Apex, NC 27539 voice: 919.321.0378 - -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://jeff.kiasoft.com PGP FP: 9CE8 83A2 33FA 32B1 0AB1 4E62 E4CB E4DA 5913 EFBC -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/qEQE5Mvk2lkT77wRAnMJAJ9vJ6qOkg/mvqqIpz7troCEQJ8bFACglu/U YNXabx7DZOV2Hd9LwSTmGpY= =dWiu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
