Code Repository Location

The BGMEriser code is hosted in a Mercurial repository by the DIVE team. For access contact Gary Carroll or Uwe Rosebrock.

The location of the repository is:

http://blue-cis.hba.marine.csiro.au/hg/repos_svn

You will get some warnings about the certificates - ignore these.

Using Mercurial

Getting started

Before cloning the code you might need to add the following to your hg config file (~/.hgrc - it might not exist yet - this is fine)

[web]
cacerts=

Then start cloning each of the following projects:

hg clone http://blue-cis.hba.marine.csiro.au/hg/repos_svn/BGMeriser

hg clone http://blue-cis.hba.marine.csiro.au/hg/repos_svn/dmpl

hg clone http://blue-cis.hba.marine.csiro.au/hg/repos_svn/lib

hg clone http://blue-cis.hba.marine.csiro.au/hg/repos_svn/libui

hg clone http://blue-cis.hba.marine.csiro.au/hg/repos_svn /javaproj4

Building in Eclipse

There is a plugin for Mercurial for Eclipse. Look in the Eclipse Market Place for ‘MercurialEclipse’ and install.

Create a new Java project and point it at the top level directory with the following contents:

bec@bec-Precision-M6500:~/BackedUp/Code/atlantis/BGMEriser$ ls
BGMeriser bin dmpl javaproj4 lib libui

Load the BGMeriser build.xml file into ant. You might need to build some of the project dependancies such as dmpl.

To create the jar file build the ‘dist’ target. This will build a large (~27M) jar file. If you use the ‘compress’ target it will strip unused code out and build a file called ‘bgmeriser-stripped.jar’ which is around 6M.
