Using Command Line (sawbuild.bat) to build - inside your view

cd C:\ADE\YOURVIEWNAME\bifndn\analytics_web\main
sawbuild bipsmatsbuildlite (for debug version, "sawbuild r bipsmatsbuildlite" for release version)

Then run.

Visual Studio Set-ups and Tips

Setting up and Using Visual Studio (8/13/2013)

• Indentation

Tool - Options - All Languages - Tab
Tab size: 3
Indent size: 3
and check "Insert spaces".

• Overwriting autoexp.dat file

Copy C:\ADE\tyun_view\bifndn\analytics_web\main\support\visualstudio\AUTOEXP.DAT
and paste to the
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\Packages\Debugger\autoexp.dat
(make a backup before you overwrite the file)

• Shortcuts

Ctrl + F7: compile only this file

• Adding breakpoints

right click on the desired position - breakpoint - Insert breakpoint

• Adding a subSystem (called hello)

Inside C:\ADE\tyun_view\bifndn\analytics_web\main\project\websubsystems\sssearch.cpp,

define function:

// hello world
void SearchSubsystem::hello(NQHttpStream & httpStream,
                                 const saw::Handle<ClientSession>& hClientSession, const HttpArgs & rArgs)
{
   NQWString hello = L"hello world";
   httpStream << hello;
}

and add the following in an appropriate location

// hello world
   SAW_ADD_HTTPCOMMAND(rRegistrar,hello,                 SearchSubsystem, kNormalCall);

Now define the function inside a header file sssearch.h in the same directory:

//hello world
   void hello(NQHttpStream & rStream, const saw::Handle<ClientSession>& hClientSession, const saw::HttpArgs & rArgs);

JDeveloper Tips

1. When JDeveloper shows low-memory warning message

Edit C:\Oracle\Middleware\jdeveloper\ide\bin\ide.conf
Increase the memory value to 1024, e.g. "AddVMOption -Xmx1024M".
