Project Tools

Below are some Daffodil-specific links to the project tools that NCSA provides.

• Wiki - https://opensource.ncsa.illinois.edu/confluence/display/DFDL
• Jira Bugs and Issues- https://opensource.ncsa.illinois.edu/jira/browse/DFDL
• Fisheye Source Code Review - https://opensource.ncsa.illinois.edu/fisheye/changelog/Daffodil
• Git - git clone https://opensource.ncsa.illinois.edu/git/dfdl
  
  • Note: no longer using Subversion - https://opensource.ncsa.illinois.edu/svn/dfdl/trunk/daffodil

To get an email on every commit to the code repository:

1. Make sure you're logged in.
2. Go to the Fisheye link above.
3. On the left you should see trunk/daffodil. Point mouse at 'trunk' and click (should go bold)
4. Click on the Tools menu on the far right top of the page.
5. Click on Watch. You will be notified about any changes to trunk/daffodil.
6. If you want to also be notified about changes on tags or branches or any of the other top-level directories, repeat steps 3 to 5 to setup watches on those also.

Additional tools (you can google to find these - rather than put in links here that will just get stale)

  • Use the Indigo release (as of 2012-01-10)
    • The enterprise J2EE version has everything except scala in it.
  • Install the scala IDE
  • Install XML tools (should be there if you installed the J2EE version)
