Prerequisites

Configuration

  • Create an Eclipse shortcut
    • Right-Click your Eclipse shortcut and select Properties
    • At the end of the line that says Target, add -vm "x" where x is the location of a JDK (e.g., "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_13\bin") - This step is necessary for the Maven plugin to work
  • Restart Eclipse using the edited shortcut.

Importing the ESAPI Source

If you choose to use the ESAPI SVN code, follow the instructions here. Unless you have been added to the ESAPI project as a contributor, please use the bottom SVN checkout link on the Google Code page (non-SSL).

If you are using subclipse, as recommended, open Eclipse and:

  • Click File -> New -> Other.....
  • From the SVN Folder select '"Checkout Projects from SVN (this option will only be available if you have a SVN plugin installed) and hit Next >.
  • Click the Create a new repository location radio button.
  • If you are not listed as a project contributor, insert http://owasp-esapi-java.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ as the URL. If you are listed as a project contributor, check the Google Code page for the URL to use. (Note: if you are a contributor, when prompted for your SVN password, use your Google generated password, available from the Google Code Source page.)
  • Once the directory structure appears in the window, click the URL at the top to download everything. Then hit Next >
  • Select your desired project options. For most people, the default options should be fine. When finished, click Next >.
  • Select your desired workspace options, then click Finish. The latest ESAPI source files will then be downloaded to your workspace. This may take a few minutes.

Project Setup

Some configuration may be necessary for ESAPI to compile and build on your system.

ESAPI requires the Java JRE 5.0+

  • Once Java 5.0+ is installed, open the Navigator view in Eclipse. If this is currently hidden, from the toolbar click Window -> Show View -> Navigator.
  • Right-click on your ESAPI project in the Navigator, mouse over Maven and click Enable Dependency Management
    • Note: If Maven is not an option when you right-click on the project, be sure the Maven plugin for eclipse is installed, as described above.
    • Note: If Enable Dependency Management is not an option, dependency management is probably already enabled, So this step can be skipped.
  • Right-click on the ESAPI project root folder in the Navigator view and select Properties.
  • From the left column, select Java Build Path. Under the Libraries tab, be sure a JRE or JDK is listed next to JRE System Library. If there is a red X on next to the JRE, remove the current JRE and click Add Library and select an alternate JRE. If you are having trouble figuring out what version the current JRE is, select Installed JREs and look at the location to which each version is mapped.
  • The Libraries tab should list JRE System Library and Maven Dependencies. If anything else is listed, it is not necessary and should be removed. Maven now handles all dependencies.
  • From the left column, select Java Compiler. Be sure Compiler compliance level, Generated .class files compatibility, and Source compatibility are all set to 1.5.
  • Close the properties window.
  • Right-click the ESAPI project root folder and select Refresh.
  • From the toolbar, select Project -> Clean.. and select the ESAPI project. Click OK.
  • If errors remain, select Maven again, then Update Dependencies.
  • ESAPI should now be compiled.

Building

Building ESAPI should be easy with the new Maven integration.

Once your environment is set up, as specified above:

  1. Right-Click your ESAPI project root folder
  2. Select Run As...
  3. Select Run Configurations
  4. Double Click "Maven Build" from the options on the left to create a new configuration.
  5. Name your configuration at the top. This will be for building ESAPI without running JUnit tests.
  6. The "Base directory" should point to the root of your project
  7. The "Goals" field type "package"
  8. From the checkboxes below, check "Skip Tests"
  9. Any options not mentioned should be left as their default
  10. Click "Apply" to save your build configuration
  11. Click "Run" to run your configuration

NOTE: Jars created through building are located in the directory called "target".

Running Demo App

The ESAPI Demo application has been named The ESAPI Swingset. More information about Swingset is available here.
