The complete notes to use Spring-Flex Addon (1)

Prerequisites:
1. Java JDK 1.6 (I suppose 1.5 is OK too).
2. Maven 2.09 or above.
3. Install ojdbc jars
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=C:\bea\weblogic92\server\lib\ojdbc14.jar -DgroupId=com.oracle -DartifactId=ojdbc14 -Dversion=10.2.0.2 -Dpackaging=jar -DgeneratePom=true

mvn install:install-file -Dfile=C:\bea\wlserver_10.3\server\lib\ojdbc6.jar -Dpackaging=jar -DgroupId=com.oracle -DartifactId=ojdbc6 -Dversion=11.1.0

4. Set up spring-roo with spring-flex-addonWe have 2 options here.
a. Spring Roo 1.1.0.M1 + Spring-Flex-Addon-1.0.0.M1

• put org.springframework.flex.roo.addon-1.0.0.M1.jar under C:\springsource\spring-roo-1.1.0.M1\bundle
• C:\springsource\spring-roo-1.1.0.M1\bin in PATH

b. Spring Roo 1.1.1.RELEASE + Spring-Flex-Addon-1.0.0.BUILD

• put org.springframework.flex.roo.addon-1.0.0.BUILD-20110219.075648-225.jar under C:\springsource\spring-roo-1.1.1.RELEASE\bundle
• C:\springsource\spring-roo-1.1.1.RELEASE\bin in PATH

We will use option b, since the new versions of STS are only compatible with Spring Roo 1.1.1.RELEASE.
