| <dl><dt><a name="sdk-examples">Where can I find examples for using Wink?</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Wink distributions comes bundled with several examples ilustarting how to use the server and client. <br></br> | |
| All the examples are located in the <code>Wink/examples</code> directory of the distribution zip. | |
| </p> | |
| <hr /> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt><a name="sdk-spring">Does Wink have an integration with spring? Can I expose my REST services using Spring Remoting?</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Yes, it provides an extension module with the Spring integration. | |
| However, Wink doesn't use Spring Remoting. | |
| </p> | |
| <hr /> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt><a name="sdk-struts">Is there an integration with Struts?</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Wink does not have an integration with struts. | |
| </p> | |
| <hr /> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt><a name="sdk-struts-usage">Can Wink be used in the same WAR with Struts?</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Yes, Wink and the code you develop over it can be used inside any WAR. | |
| </p> | |
| <hr /> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt><a name="sdk-tested-with-other-clients">Have you tested consuming REST resources developed using Wink from a REST client developed using other tools?</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Sure. We have tested it from variety of clients including IE, Firefox, Outlook, Apache Abdera, Sun Rome, etc. | |
| </p> | |
| <hr /> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt><a name="sdk-query-parameters">Does Wink query parameters?</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Absolutely. | |
| </p> | |
| <hr /> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt><a name="sdk-ide-plugin">Are there any plans for developing an IDE plugin wrapper for Wink?</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| We are considering this option for the Eclipse IDE. | |

| <dl><dt><a name="maven-version">What version of Maven is used to build Wink?</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Wink is built using Maven 2, version 2.0.9. | |
| </p> | |
| <hr /> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt><a name="maven-sources">Where can I read about Maven?</a></dt> | |

| <dt><a name="build-oom">I am getting an OutOfMemoryException when performing a full build</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| If you are getting OutOfMemoryException when attempting a full | |
| build, you may try increasing the max heap and the PermGen space sizes. | |
| Either export a MAVEN_OPTS variable in your shell or add it to the original mvn script. | |
| <br></br> | |
| <pre>MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m</pre> | |
| </p> | |
| <hr /> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt><a name="build-offline">Can I build the sources if I am not connected to the network?</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| If you know your downloads are up-to-date, you can use the offline option | |
| which may speed up your build considerably depending on network latency: | |
| <pre>mvn -o</pre> | |
| </p> | |
| <hr /> | |
| </dd> | |
| <dt><a name="build-tests">Some tests fail during the build. Where can I see what happened?</a></dt> | |
| <dd> | |
| <p> | |
| Surefire, which is the default Maven test runner, outputs all tests reports | |
| as a set of xml and text files to the <code>target/surefire-reports</code> directory. | |
| Any test failure details and stacktraces end up in those files, but not in the console. | |
| The output can be temporarily redirected to the console by adding the following option: | |
| <pre>mvn -Dsurefire.useFile=false</pre> | |
