Apache Ant 1.6 or later http://ant.apache.org
This is required for building the SCAGEN code generation tool, which is used when developing Tuscany SCA C++ components

Installing Tuscany SCA for C++

Getting Tuscany SCA for C++ working with the binary release on Linux
  1. Extract the binary tar package to a folder
  2. Set the TUSCANY_SCACPP environment variable to point to the directory that was just extracted
  3. Add the *install_dir*/lib directory to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable

Getting Tuscany SCA for C++ working with the source release on Linux
  1. Extract the source tar package to a folder <tuscany_sca>
  2. The following environment variables are required:
    • TUSCANY_SDOCPP=<path to installed Tuscany SDO>
    • AXIS2C_HOME=<path to axis2c version 0.92>
  3. Build the source with the following command sequence:
    • ./configure
    • make
    • make install
    NOTE: If you don't provide a --prefix configure option, it will by default install into /usr/local/tuscany/sca

Getting Tuscany SCA for C++ working with the binary release on Windows
  1. Unzip the supplied zip file to a folder
  2. Set the TUSCANY_SCACPP environment variable to point to the directory that was just unzipped
  3. Add the *install_dir*\bin directory to the PATH environment variable

Getting Tuscany SCA for C++ working with the source release on Windows
  1. Unzip the supplied source zip file
  2. The following environment variables are required:
    • TUSCANY_SDOCPP=<path to installed Tuscany SDO>
    • AXIS2C_HOME=<path to axis2c version 0.92>
  3. You must have set up the environment for Microsoft Visual C++ tools. The build command will call vcvars32 to set the environment. Ensure the directory containing this is on your path. This will be where you installed the compiler.
  4. Build the source:
    • cd <to where you unzipped the source>
    • build
    This will build all the projects and put the required output into the 'deploy' directory

    Alternatively, open the workspace tuscany_sca.dsw in Visual Studio 6 - you can build projects individually or build the samples to rebuild all the projects
  5. Set the TUSCANY_SCACPP environment variable to point to the 'deploy' directory that was just created

Samples
SCA Technology samples Simple samples that emphasize how to to use Service Component Architecture technology. Follow the instructions on the samples Getting Started page to build and run the Tuscany SCA samples
