Questions about Assignment 1

• The source code of ArchStudio and Myx.fw have
  compilation errors
• I cannot Download ArchStudio 4 Project Set File
• I can see the Lunar Lander Menu but I can not run
  the game
• gt Check the solutions in the Noteboard

4
How to create a PDF file?

• MAC users
• File-gtPrint, PDF, Save as PDF
• Windows users
• Online free service
• https//www.pdfonline.com/convert_pdf.asp

5
How can I see the LL architecture?

• Go to the ArchStudio Perspective
• In the Navigator view, select LunarLander-gtarch.xm
  l
• Right click on arch.xml and select Open with
  Archipelago

6
How can I see the LL architecture?

• In the Outline View, double click on Lunar
  Lander
• You will see the Lunar Lander architecture.
  Adjust the of Zoom for better visualization.
• To see the different types of connectors that you
  can use in Myx.fw. Refer to the Myx Whitepaper
  here
• http//www.isr.uci.edu/projects/archstudio/resourc
  es/myx-whitepaper.pdf

7
How can I see the code related to a component?

• Go to the ArchStudio Perspective
• In the Navigator view, select LunarLander-gtarch.xm
  l
• Right click on arch.xml and select Open with
  ArchEdit

8
How can I see the code related to a component?

• In the Outline View, select one of the components
  and double click on its type.
• Its type will be selected in the tree. Select
  implementation to see the java class related to
  the component type.

9
What about the connectors?

• You can see the java class related to a Connector
  using ArchEdit and checking the implementation.
  Just in the same way we can see the
  implementation for a Component as described in
  previous slides.

How to configure SVN to create your repository

• Step 1 Configure your Unix Shell
• Step 2 Add Directory and Initialize your
  repository
• Step 3 Configure Subclipse
• Step 4 Connect to your SVN repository using
  Subclise
• Step 5 Create folders in your repository
• Step 6 Check In your project

11
Step 1 Configure your Unix Shell

• Connect to your Unix account (openlab.ics.uci.edu)
  using SecureCRT, Putty or other ssh client in
  Windows or Terminal (ssh username_at_openlab.ics.uci.
  edu) in MAC.
• Type the command module list and check if
  subversion has been loaded.

12
Step 1 Configure your Unix Shell

• If the Subversion module has not been loaded, add
  the line module load subversion to your .cshrc
  file located in your H drive. Log out and log in
  again to check that the module is loaded now.

13
Step 2 Add Directory and Initialize your
repository

• Create a directory called 123-svnrepository
  (command mkdir 123-svnrepository)
• Enter that directory using the command cd. Type
  the command pwd and take note of the full path.
  We need this ltpathgt later.
• Initialize your repository
• Type in the command svnadmin create --fs-type
  fsfs ltpathgt. Be sure to substitute the string
  that you wrote down in the previous bullet
  instead of ltpathgt.

14
Step 3 Configure Subclipse

• Go to Window (or Eclipse in MAC)-gt Preferences.
  Expand Team and click SVN. Select SVNKit (Pure
  Java) in the SVN interface information. Click
  Apply and OK.

15
Step 4 Connect to your SVN repository using
Subclipse

• Go to the SVN Perspective. In the SVN
  Repositories tab, right-click and select New -gt
  Repository Location.
• Indicate the location of the repository. Type in
  svnssh//openlab.ics.uci.edu/ltpathgt. Be sure
  to substitute the string that you wrote down in a
  previous slide instead of ltpathgt. In the next
  screens you will be asked to enter your password
  (check if your username is correct) and author
  name.

16
Step 5 Create folders in your repository

• Right-click on the repository and select New -gt
  New remote folder.
• In the New remote folder window create the folder
  trunk and press Finish. Repeat this step to
  create the folders branches and tags.

17
Step 5 Create folders in your repository

• Your repository should look like this

18
Step 6 Check In your project

• Right-click on the project (LunarLander) and
  select the Team -gt Share Project menu item.
• Select the SVN repository plug-in and click
  Next.
• Select Use existing repository location and
  select the repository you just created. Click
  Next.

19
Step 6 Check In your project

• In the Enter Folder Name Window, select Use
  specified folder name and click Browse.
  Select the trunk folder and click OK.

20
Step 6 Check In your project

• Enter a comment for your first commit.
• You will see your project in the Package Explorer
  similar to the following screenshot
