Create a new webapp

  1. Setup an initial Eiffel project for your webapp. For that matter you can use this script which creates all necessary files. Make sure to assign a free port to your webapp (see also Xebra Webapp Config File). The webapp has to be created in the same folder that is specified in the servers config file at unmanaged_webapps. See Xebra Server Config File for more information.
  2. Run the server (see Xebra Server Administration) and browse to http://localhost:55000/yourwebapp. The server will translate and compile your webapp. Once compiled, you should see a page displaying "Yourwebapp works!".
  3. Create xeb files for your webapp. See Xebra Tag Libraries for more info about xeb tags (see also Tutorial). Note that you have to let the server re-translate your webapp everytime you change xeb-files or add new xeb-files. This can be done by just pressing F5 in the browser. The server automatically detects that the webapp has to be re-translated if it is set to Development Mode (see Xebra Server Administration for more info).
  4. Create the eiffel classes.

Add support for XML-RPC

Manually translate a webapp

To manually translate, generate and compile your webapp use the following commands

Linux

cd $XEBRA_DEV/httpd/htdocs/yourwebapp/
 
#Translate
$XEBRA_DEV/eiffel_projects/xebra_translator/EIFGENs/xebra_translator/W_code/xebra_translator -n yourwebapp -i . -o . -l $XEBRA_DEV/eiffel_projects/xebra_translator
 
#Compile servlet_gen
ec -experiment -config .generated/servlet_gen/servlet_gen.ecf -target servlet_gen -c_compile -stop
 
#Execute servlet_gen
.generated/servlet_gen/EIFGENs/servlet_gen/W_code/servlet_gen -o .
 
#Compile webapp
ec -experiment -config yourwebapp.ecf -target yourwebapp -c_compile -stop

Windows

cd %XEBRA_DEV%\httpd\htdocs\yourwebapp\
 
#Translate
%XEBRA_DEV%\eiffel_projects\xebra_translator\EIFGENs\xebra_translator\W_code\xebra_translator -n yourwebapp -i . -o . -l %XEBRA_DEV%\eiffel_projects\xebra_translator
 
#Compile servlet_gen
ec -experiment -config .generated\servlet_gen\servlet_gen.ecf -target servlet_gen -c_compile -stop
 
#Execute servlet_gen
.generated\servlet_gen\EIFGENs\servlet_gen\W_code\servlet_gen.exe .
 
#Compile webapp
ec -experiment -config yourwebapp.ecf -target yourwebapp -c_compile -stop

Optionally, you can add the "-clean" option for ec and the "-f" option for translator to force a complete recompilation.
