<section name="Forewords and Requirements">
<p>
This tutorial explains how to run Turbine within VisualAge for
Java WebSphere Test Environment.
</p>
<p>
This tutorial works with VAJava 3.5.2 and 3.5.3. Please tell us if you
find that it works with other versions.
</p>
</section>
<section name="Step 1 : Import the correct packages in VAJava">
<p>
Let's assume the following conventions :
<strong><code>{Turbine dir}</code></strong> is the directory where you
have unzipped the Turbine distribution or sources and
<strong><code>{VAJava dir}</code></strong> is the directory where
VAJava is installed. Let's also define <strong><code>{WTE dir}</code>
</strong> to be the WebSphere Test Environment directories, i.e.
<code>{VAJava dir}/ide/project_resources/IBM WebSphere Test
Environment</code>.
</p>
<p>
You need to create a project : Turbine
</p>
<p>
Import into Turbine project all JARS/SRC associated with the specific
Turbine release
</p>
</section>
<section name="Step 2 : Modify WebSphere Test Environment">
<section name="Edit default.servlet_engine">
<p>
Edit <code>{WTE dir}/properties/default.servlet_engine</code> and
add the following under the <code>default_app</code> webgroup :
</p>
<source><![CDATA[
<websphere-webgroup name="turbine">
<description>Turbine Application Framework</description>
<document-root>$approot$/web</document-root>
<classpath>$approot$/servlets</classpath>
<root-uri>/turbine</root-uri>
<auto-reload enabled="true" polling-interval="3000"/>
<shared-context>false</shared-context>
</websphere-webgroup>
]]></source>
</section>
<section name="Create a turbine directory">
<p>
Create a directory called <code>turbine</code> under
<code>{WTE dir}/hosts/default_host</code>. Under <code>turbine</code>
create another 2 subdirectories : <code>servlets</code> and
<code>web</code>.
</p>
<p>
Create the following directories (which is similiar to the TDK distribution)
under the web directory.
<li> images </li>
<li> logs </li>
<li> resources</li>
<li> stylesheets</li>
<li> templates</li>
<li> WEB-INF/conf</li>
</p>
<p>
Copy the TurbineResource.properties file to the "WEB-INF/conf" directory. The templates,
logs etc. directories are quite self explanetory I think.
</p>
</section>
<section name="Create a turbine.webapp file">
<p>
Create a <code>turbine.webapp</code> file in
<code>{WTE dir}/host/default_app/servlets</code> and put the following
content :
<source><![CDATA[
<webapp>
<name>turbine</name>
<description>Turbine Application Framework</description>
<error-page>/ErrorReporter</error-page>
<servlet>
<name>turbine</name>
<description>Turbine Application Framework</description>
<code>org.apache.turbine.Turbine</code>
<servlet-path>/ServletRedirector</servlet-path>
<autostart>true</autostart>
</servlet>
</webapp>
]]></source>
</p>
</section>
</section>
<section name="Step 3 : Edit VAJava workspace classpath">
<p>
In the WebSphere Test Environment under Servlet Engine, add Turbine to the classpath.
