[seek-dev] full garp pipeline

[Chad Berkley]

Hi,

I've put the GARP pipeline we developed last week in SEV up on my web 
site for anyone to download.  Note that this pipeline does not run, but 
is a prototype of the entire GARP process.  There are two files you 
need.  First get http://trestles.nceas.ucsb.edu/full-garp.xml.  You can 
save this file anywhere...I recommend in your kepler directory.  Then 
get http://trestles.nceas.ucsb.edu/dynsrc.tar.gz.  This file will need 
to be unzipped into your kepler directory.  The directory structure 
after you unzip it should be 
kepler/dynsrc/org/ecoinformatics/seek/workflow/.  All of the needed 
actors should be in that directory.  Let me know if you can't get this 
to work.

In case any of you want to fix the bug we discovered where the garp 
pipeline window gets created off the screen, edit the file 
kepler/lib/garpModel.xml.  Edit the file and find the line that says 
something like
<property name="_windowProperties"...  on that line there should be an 
xml attribute that looks like
value="{bounds={1300, 2700, 975,590}}".  Change the first two values 
(they may not be 1300 and 2700 but they will be rather large) to 10,10. 
  Then execute 'ant clean run'.  the next time you open the garp model 
it should be on the screen in front of you instead of off in 
neverneverland.  let me know if you have problems.

Thanks to everyone that was at SEV for the BEAM/AMS/KR meeting last 
week.  It was extremely productive and I think our software projects, 
specifically kepler, will benefit tremendously.  I'll let everyone know 
when I get various things working/fixed in kepler and hopefully we'll 
have an installer within the next month or two.
