Injection does not work on sample project(reported from other issue ticket)

[xzer]

First comment:

Hi, xzer:
I am trying to set a CMS web site with ASTA4D framework. While, I encountered one issue in the sample program. When go into the Form List screen, I can not get the value of [type] parameter from the url "/form?type=cascade". Could you help explain it? Or It is appreciated that i can receive you email reply.

Thanks

reply as following information:

Hi xzer: Thanks for your reply very much! I set up the app as below:

1. download the source codes(version 1.2) into local PC which can not connect to the internet.
2. download the related app libs from internet based on the list in POM.
3. create a web app in eclipse and copy the source codes(sample, web, core, etc..) into the project.
4. Update the Source code folder setting.
5. Run the app with Tomcat 7 and JDK 1.7 My app's uri as below: http://localhost:8080/dms/. "dms" is my project name. To cater for it, i updated the link in sample template(But i did not change anything in Java codes) so that it can support multiple kinds of path. I did not change anything about variable for receiving injection. Do I need it? In fact, i do not know where it is. ^_^

Thanks very much!

At first, the current source from develop branch at github is not recommend to use in your production environment since it is still in developing. Then, the latest stabe verion of 1.1-Xmas is recommended to use.

Secondly, following the quick start at the project's top page to create the sample project is better than copy source from git clone.

mvn archetype:generate                       \
    -DarchetypeGroupId=com.astamuse          \
    -DarchetypeArtifactId=asta4d-archetype   \
    -DarchetypeVersion=1.1-Xmas        \
    -DgroupId=<your.groupid>                 \
    -DartifactId=<your-artifactId>

One important thing is that the version 1.1 requires jdk 1.8 rather than jdk 1.7.

Finally, to make variable injection work correctly, you need to compile your source with compile option "-parameters", which sample can be found int asta4d's parent pom file, which should also be configured via eclipse at the "Java Compiler" of project properties configuration window to check on the option of "Store information about method parameters" if you use eclipse to debug your project.
