+ <subsection name="Centralization">
+
+ <p>
+ One of the objectives of the DPML component development strategy
+ is an effective breakdown of concerns such that you end up with
+ small and easily understandable sub-systems. However, while
+ individal projects are under control, the configuration management
+ of an overall system (possibly involving several hundred sub-projects)
+ becomes an inevitable configuration management concern.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Depot addresses overall configuration management through
+ centralization of project information within a
+ <a href="library/index.html">common build library</a> that
+ captures information about <a href="library/projects.html">
+ projects</a> and shared <a href="library/resources.html">resources</a>
+ organized and structured within distrinct
+ <a href="library/modules.html">modules</a>.
+ A <tt><a href="cli/index.html">build</a></tt> commandline tool
provides
+ support for listing of registered projects and the execution
+ of project builds. The build tool executes builds using a plugin
builder.
+ A default <a href="tools/index.html">build system implementation</a>
+ based on the Apache Ant product is included in the Depot distribution.
+ </p>
+
+ </subsection>
+
+ <subsection name="Modularization">
+
+ <p>
+ A framework for modularization of project structures enables the
+ establishment and maintenance of discrete namespaces. In turn this
+ improves the overall maintainability within large-scale projects.
+ The Depot system maintains information about project and resources
+ within <a href="library/modules.html">modules</a> and provides
+ support for the production of a module suitable for export and use
+ by external projects. This adds to the general integrity concerning
+ naming, content versioning, and overall dependency management.
+ </p>
+
+ </subsection>
+
+ <subsection name="Simplification">
+
+ <p>
+ One of the aims of the Depot build system is the simplification
+ of build procedures. Depot focuses on the principal of 80/20 where
+ 80% of projects can be easily automated to extent that no
+ build file is needed at all. For the remaining 20% Depot provides
+ mechanisms to customize builds for those specialized requirements.
+ Overall - the aim is to reduce the amount of information that
+ resides in a build file and focus where possible on mechanisms that
+ will enable consistent and reliable build automation.

- <p>
- Two optional system properties may be used to control the
configuration
- of the Transit system. One property provides a mechanisms whereby a
- remote active transit model can be associated as the confiuration
- for a local transit instance. A second property is available for
- selection of a transit profile via url (suitable for centralized
- configuration of static models).
- </p>
-
- <table>
- <tr>
- <td>dpml.transit.model</td>
- <td>
- If this system property is passed as an argument to the Depot
- console handler (via the <tt>transit</tt>, <tt>metro</tt>, or
- <tt>station</tt> commandline handlers), Depot will attempt to
- locate a Transit Model using an RMI registry. If declared the
- value of the property must be in the form
<tt>registry[:host[:port]]:name</tt>
- where the <tt>name</tt> value corresponds to a RMI registry name
binding
- that maps to an instance of a remote TransitModel.
- </td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td>dpml.transit.profile</td>
- <td>
- If Transit is not initialized within an explicit TransitModel
then
- Transit will attempt to establish a TransitModel using a
externalized
- TransitDirective located at the uri
<tt>local:xml:dpml/transit/standard</tt>.
- This uri can be overridden using the
<tt>dpml.transit.profile</tt> property
- enabling the selection of a remote profile. The uri value will
be resolved
- to a url referencing a <a href="config/index.html">Transit XML
configuration</a>.
- Overriding the uri enables the possiblity for centralization of
multiple
- Transit configurations.
