SDK file group

The SDK consists of prebuilt filesets, which are installed under the sdk_root directory.

The following table briefly describes these top-level directories:

The following sections describe the contents of these top-level directories in the SDK.

Core components

The sdk_root/filesets/all directory contains the non–platform-specific filesets for JRun,

organized by functional component. You use these filesets if you are preparing a custom

JRun installation in a non-Windows Installer environment. For more information on

creating custom installers, see “Building a customized version of JRun” on page 14.

The following table describes the files in the sdk_root/filesets/all directory of the SDK:

Directory Description

filesets Contains the core components of JRun and localization files.

For more information on the contents of the sdk_root/filesets directory,

see “JRun components” on page 5.

src Contains source code for some components of JRun, including the JMC

and web server connectors.

For more information on the contents of the sdk_root/src directory, see

“JRun source code” on page 6.

docs Contains documentation specific to the SDK.

For more information on the contents of the sdk_root/docs directory, see

“SDK documentation” on page 7.

installers Contains merge modules and BIN files for use in installer development

environments, and the Windows Installer wrapper.

For more information on the contents of the sdk_root/installers directory,

see “JRun installers” on page 6.

Subdirectory Description

core Includes the basic files to run JRun and serve J2EE applications.

Also includes the migration tool, XMLScript, and the JSPC compiler.

default-server Includes all files used by the default JRun server, including the

default application.

flashgateway Contains the files necessary to run the Macromedia Flash Remoting

service that is installed in the retail version of JRun by default.

jmc Includes the files used by the JMC applications. The JMC provides

access to JRun settings through a web-based GUI. In the retail

version, JRun hotdeploys this component as an EAR file.

The source code of the JMC is also included in the sdk_root/src

fileset.

jrunwizard Includes the JRun EJB Deployment Wizard stand-alone tool and

the tool’s GUI installer.

macromedia_drivers Includes the JRun JDBC drivers.

SDK file group 5

JRun components

The sdk_root/filesets directory contains filesets for all JRun components. It also contains

subdirectories for each supported platform with a binary code base for each of the

following JRun tools:

• JRun EJB Deployment Wizard

• Web Services

• Web Server Configuration tool

The subdirectories contain the compiled classes and resource files, separated into

functional groups. The directories take the following form:

{os_or_language}/{module_name}/{jrun_dirs}

The sdk_root/filesets directory also contains a build.xml file which lets you create a

custom JRun installation using different combinations of modules, OS-specific files, and

language-specific files. You must have Ant to use the build.xml file. For more information

on building a custom version of JRun using the build.xml file, see “Building a

customized version of JRun” on page 14.

The following table describes the files in the sdk_root/filesets directory of the SDK:

webservices Includes all files used to implement Web Services on JRun.

xdoclet Contains files for using the XDoclet XML generation tool with JRun.

Subdirectory Description

all Contains the non–platform-specific filesets for JRun, organized by

functional component.

JRun source code

The JRun SDK includes source code for a subset of JRun tools. This gives you the most

granular level of control over the JRun components. The source code is in the

sdk_root/src directory in the SDK.

The following table describes the files in the sdk_root/src directory of the SDK:

Working with the JRun tools’ source code is beyond the scope of this book. However,

some information on working with the JMC source code is included in “Rebranding the

JMC” on page 42.

JRun installers

The SDK includes files for OEMs to build custom JRun installers in the

sdk_root/installers directory. For general information about the JRun installer creation

tools, see Chapter 2, “JRun Installer Overview” on page 9.

The following table describes the subdirectories in the sdk_root/installers directory of the

SDK:

Subdirectory Description
