DWB_Developer_Instructions
Software developers are invited to use the source code of the DWB to set up their own software applications, e. g. for domain-specific purposes. They are encouraged to start cooperative projects with the DWB developer team and use the DWB code repositories to archive their code.
First, we recommend to study the DWB terminology and programming philosophy in several steps:
- Have a look on the published DWB ER models.
- Have a look on the DWB SVN code repository and the DiversityMobile GitHub repository.
- Install 3-4 of the DWB databases and rich clients on your desktop or MS server engine, e. g. DiversityAgents, DiversityProjects, DiversityCollection and DiversityDescriptions. You need, e. g. Windows 7 (with .Net already included).
- Contact the SNSB IT Center to get an account for a DWB training environment with test data.
- Participate in a DWB Workshop (currently only in German).
- To start with developping DWB code install 2012 SQL Server Express and MS VisualStudio 2010 (upwards) Express, which are free of charge. For ambitious projects we recommend 2012 SQL Server Developer and MS VisualStudio Professional. If you work at a university the licences costs you around 100 Euro.
- For downloading directories from the DWB SVN code repository we recommend to install Subversion (SVN command line tool: e.g. "svn co http://svn.snsb.info/repos/DiversityWorkbench/trunk/DiversityAgents", or TortoiseSVN graphical user interface). You might use this code as template for the programming.
- Keep contact with the DWB editors, co-workers and software developers to learn more about the DWB philosophy, terminology, name space and conventions.
