Flexible, Reliable Software
Using Patterns and Agile Development
Avoid all the hazzles of installating development tools:
download a VMWare snapshot with a ready-to-go Ubuntu
installation. Includes all source code of the book
as well as Java, JUnit, Apache Ant, and Subversion.
Just follow the recipe below:
- Download VMWare Player - you will find
it in the Support & Downloads menu from
www.vmware.com, it is a
menu item in the product downloads category.
There are players for both Linux and Windows operating
systems.
-
Download a zip containing the Ubuntu snapshot.
-
Unzip the file in some suitable folder.
-
Ask the VMWare Player to execute the snapshot "UbuntuFRS.vmx".
-
The snapshot should start Ubuntu in the login
screen. You may have to tell VMWare Player that the
snapshot is copied and may get warnings that your
hardware differs from mine but it should be able to
cope. You will have to log into Ubuntu using user
name "frs" and password "frs". The book's source code
is located in folder 'frs' in user frs' home folder.
(Note: If you need a 32-bit VM, please contact me!)
Some hints
As I am living in Denmark and use a Danish keyboard, the
Ubuntu snapshot is configured for a Danish keyboard.
You can easily change that by the System Settings -> Type Entry
and then click the '+' sign to add your keyboard layout.
