Vroom Framework - Installation and Configuration

Installation and Configuration

The framework's latest distribution can be obtained from Project's website. To install the framework, following the instructions below:

1. Download the latest Vroom-x.x.x.zip file and extract it to the location which is normally used for java libraries e.g. C:\CLASSPATH\Vroom-x.x.x\.
2. Create a web application and copy the contents available in Vroom-x.x.x\WEB-INF\ folder of the library to your web application's \WEB-INF\ folder.
3. Define the following entries in web.xml of the application:

   
VroomFilter
net.openkoncept.vroom.VroomFilter

config-file
/WEB-INF/vroom-config.xml



VroomFilter
*.jsp


VroomController
net.openkoncept.vroom.VroomController

upload-file-size-threshold
1024000


upload-file-temp-folder
/WEB-INF/temp



VroomController
/vroom


   Note: You can change config-file, upload-file-size-threshold, upload-file-temp-folder attributes. However, url-pattern for VroomController have to be /vroom. Also remember, the filter-mapping is very important in terms of intercepting the requests. If you want to intercept Html pages (*.html), Struts Actions (*.do) or JSF pages (*.faces), you need to define separate filter-mapping for each of them, otherwise the framework won't be able to manage them.

That's all related to Installation and Configuration of the framework and web application is ready to utilize Vroom Framework.
