Hi again

the best problems are the ones you can solve yourself. The solution was pretty simple
Checking out SVN, going to projects/alfresco-jlan and calling

ant createJar

Important that generated jar seems to have solved my current problem.

Back again

Well, I'm still not done with the SDK it seems. After getting the former stuff working, I now stopped at the following problem:

16:08:44,973 INFO [domain.schema.SchemaBootstrap] Schema managed by database dialect org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLInnoDBDialect.
16:08:45,676 INFO [domain.schema.SchemaBootstrap] No changes were made to the schema.

I get the same incompatibleClassChangeError when executing the foundationexample. Do I use the wrong spring version (the jar file) - I am using the 2.0.2 version from the SDK?

Thanks for any hints!

Hi

though it is somewhat boring to answer my own questions, any step I come closer to a running SDK might be interesting for others as well. However I still could not get the SDK running. It seems that the afresco-jlan.jar is not the right jar due to source code differences with the SDK. When using Java6 I get additionally the following error message which helps a lot:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: Found interface org.alfresco.config.ConfigElement, but class was expected

In the SDK org.alfresco.config.ConfigElement is an interface, whereas in the SVN inside the alfresco-jlan project it is a normal class.

So, this did not seem to be the way to go I guess… slowly I am somewhat running out of ideas 🙂

I had this alfresco jlan problem too. To solve it I downloaded the Alfresco-Labs-3a.r1032-Mini-Setup.exe. Installed it and took the alfresco-jlan-embed.jar from there. It can be found in the tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\lib directory. I think you'll also find it in the other Alfresco Labs 3a distributions (but obviously not in the sdk).

Hello,

you have to checkout the alfresco-source code from SVN. There you find "alfresco-jlan"
