XQuark Source Distribution

---

This package allows you to build XQuark Products from the Java source code enclosed in the delivery. To build a product, follow the instructions:

1. Make sure that Apache Ant 1.5.x (in fact tested with 1.5.3, bugs detected on 1.5.2) and Sun JDK 1.3.1 or above are installed on your system.
2. Make sure that Apache Forrest 0.5.x or above is installed and that the FORREST_HOME environment variable is set if you want the HTML products documentation to be produced. XQuark products documentation is written as Forrest DTD v12 compliant XML documents using Open Office since version 1.1 beta 2.
3. On the command-line, make the 'tools' directory of the distribution your working directory and type 'ant -projecthelp' to get the list of the build.xml targets.
4. To build the binary distribution for a product, you should generally type:

'ant product_name'

For instance, to build the XQuark Bridge, simply launch 'ant bridge'.

5. The binary distribution is produced in 'tools/output/'.
