there is an archive that has everything one might need, a GT4
container, the service code (which is already deployed in the GT4
container), the executor code, the client code, and the monitor GUI
code. We also bundle a 1.4 32bit JRE. There is a configuration file
that points to where the logs are supposed to go, and another one with
what security mechanisms you want to use. There are also a bunch of
settable parameters in the startup scripts, and a few obscure setable
parameters in the code, that requires recompiling the service. To
recompile the service, you need ANT installed and configured as well as
1.4+ JDK; to recompile anything else, you just need 1.4+ JDK. With a
single script, and a single arguement (the port number), you can start
the entire Falkon system!<br>

I think it doesn't make sense to look at the falkon/swift interface code
without looking at the whole deployment process for both Swift and Falkon
together.

My understanding is that the Falkon provider can be specified in the
sites.xml, including where the Falkon dispatcher will be found. Other
than that, everything else should be straight forward.<br>

Ben's specs should also address code quality, testing/certification and
maintainability.

<pre wrap="">It seems that Yong's Falkon provider is working (according to Nika),
so I was wondering when will it make it into the Swift ? At that point
it's more convenient for me to test it (as I would only have to handle
the Falkon backend configuration).

<pre wrap="">i hear rumour that its sufficiently unclear how to wire swift and falkon

8th of march build that Yong made)
that is lame - it means large chunks of our app testing are being done
with code that is 2.5 months old.
I don't know how Falkon gets deployed alongside swift at the moment, so I
don't know what to do to make this easier - are they written down
anywhere?
