How to call a shell script from another shell script

Note: Make sure to add #!/bin/bash to the first line of the script and make it executable through chmod 700 <path to script>.

1. <path to script> or /bin/bash <path to script> or <scriptname> (add script to $PATH environment variable and call as normal command)
   - child script is executed in a new shell, changes in child script does not affect parent script
   - can be executed asynchronously through background command
2. <path to script> &
   - same as no. 1 but executes child script on background
3. source <path to script> or . <path to script>
   - child script is executed in a current shell
   - context is same as parent script (vars and functions of child script becomes visible on parent script)
   - exit call in child script will also exit the parent script
4. exec <path to script>
   - terminates the current shell and executes on a new shell

How to create Bash Script on Mac

1. Create the bash script file.
   Sample: File myscript.sh

   #!/bin/bash     #”hash-bang" or “she-bang" indicating that this script is to be interpreted and run by the bash shell
   echo hello world     #prints “hello world”
   

2. Change the file permission to make it an executable. Open the terminal, navigate to the location of the file and type the following command:
   

   chmod 700 myscript.sh 

   See this link for more info on chmod: http://www.thinkplexx.com/learn/article/unix/command/chmod-permissions-flags-explained-600-0600-700-777-100-etc
3. Run the script. Type the following in the terminal:
   

   ./myscript.sh

Merging in SVN using Eclipse

Ant buildfile

Each buildfile contains one project and at least one (default) target. Targets contain task elements.

Basic components/tags:
1) project - attributes: name, default, and basedir

2) target - attributes: name, depends, if, unless, descriptiondefault, and basedir

3) tasks - can be built-in or user defined
Common tasks: init, sets properties, prepare, creates directories, build, builds the system, package, creates jar file, install, installs an application to Tomcat or other engine, deploy, deploy a WAR engine, reload, update previously installed application engine, redeploy

4) properties - to reference, enclose in "${" and "}"
Some Built-in Properties: basedir, ant.file, ant.version, ant.project.name, ant.java.version

Installing your own jar into Local Repository

• Update your maven setting to point the localRepository to where you want to install the jar
  
  1. Go to <MAVEN_HOME>\conf directory
  2. Open settings.xml and change <localRepositorygt; tag to the path where you want to install the jar file
• In command prompt, type:
  

  mvn install:install-file -Dfile=your-artifact-1.0.jar \
                           [-DpomFile=your-pom.xml] \
                           [-Dsources=src.jar] \
                           [-Djavadoc=apidocs.jar] \
                           [-DgroupId=org.some.group] \
                           [-DartifactId=your-artifact] \
                           [-Dversion=1.0] \
                           [-Dpackaging=jar] \
                           [-Dclassifier=sources] \
                           [-DgeneratePom=true] \
                           [-DcreateChecksum=true]
  
  Where: <path-to-file>  the path to the file to load
     <group-id>      the group that the file should be registered under
     <artifact-id>   the artifact name for the file
     <version>       the version of the file
     <packaging>     the packaging of the file e.g. jar

  
  Sample:
  mvn install:install-file -Dfile=C:\bel\docs\lib\jxl-2.6.3.jar -DgroupId=jexcelapi -DartifactId=jxl -Dversion=2.6.3 -Dpackaging=jar -DgeneratePom -DcreateChecksum=true


• In your repository, you will find the new jar installed
• To use the jar, add it in your pom.xml like:
  

  <dependency>
   <groupId>jexcelapi</groupId>
   <artifactId>jxl</artifactId>
   <version>2.6.3</version>
  </dependency>

Getting started with Ant

What is Apache Ant?

Download bin:

Getting started with Maven

Apache Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information.

Download and extract bin from http://maven.apache.org/download.html

Basics:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/maven-in-five-minutes.html

To install a package into your local repository:
1) Open <MAVEN_HOME>/conf/settings.xml
2) Set the local repository
<localRepository>S:/bel/repo</localRepository>
3) Set profile
4) Set what profile to activate
5) Set proxy (optional?)
6) Run mvn install (if variables are needed, add -D{varname}={varValue}). To skip test add <skipTests>true</skipTests> on pom.xml (inside properties tag). To set a default/permanent variable, set it in MAVEN_OPTS environment variable

How to set MAVEN_OPTS
-> set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M
-> add in mvn.bat
1) edit <MAVEN_HOME>/bin/mvn.bat
2) add SET MAVEN_OPTS=-Dmaven.test.skip=true

Note:
- dependencies -> mvn install copies all libraries first from WEB-INF/lib to the snapshot lib before downloading all dependencies declared in pom into the snapshot lib. so make sure to always clean up WEB-INF/lib first before executing mvn install to remove any conflicting jars

Installing Eclipse Plugins

• Copy and Paste
1. extract package
2. copy the contents of the "features" into the "features" folder of eclipse and copy the contents of the "plugins" into the "plugins" folder of eclipse


• Using Update Manager (existing Eclipse software site)
1. click Help->Install New Software...
2. select the update site of you eclipse' version from the dropdown folder
3. find the feature you want from the list and install


• Using Update Manager (new software site)
  1. click Help->Install New Software... and click on Available Software tab
  2. add the download site
  3. select the update/download site from the dropdown
  4. find the feature you want from the list and install
  Ex.
  Drools - http://download.jboss.org/drools/release/5.5.0.Final/org.drools.updatesite/
  
  Some update sites are dependent on the version of eclipse.
  Ex. http://www.jboss.org/tools/download.html
  
  
• Using Extension - to separate your plugins from other users
1. create an extension folder with eclipse folder, e.g. C:\extension\eclipse
2. copy the features and plugins folder of the plugin inside the eclipse folder (for additional plugins, do the Copy and Paste method above)
3. open Update Manager and Add Site
4. in Add Site window, click Local and specify the location of the extension folder, e.g. C:\extension
5. browse and check the plugin you want to install in the Available Software list and click Install
