1. General

The ZeusBase library builts the base of the whole Zeus-Framework and therefore the cell computing applications. It defines the base classes, the interface handling and the platform data types.

It is also very usable for other C++ projects. It extends the STL or BOOST libraries. It wrapps the classes of STL and provides a simple interface to use them.

2. Documentation

There is a complete documentation and explanation of the ZeusBase-Library available.

The documentation includes:

• Description of classes and the API
• Code examples
• Theorie about X-Object and MOM concepts
• Framework extendsion and configuration

There is some documentation online as well (see below).

The API documentation includes only class and code documentation.

3. Sub packages

3.1 Overview

The class framework includes a large number of classes and tools. They are grouped within follwoing packages:

• System
  • Differnt data types like lists, strings, variant and more
  • Streaming. IO Stream classes, filter classes.
  • Serializing of objects
  • X-Objects (XML based object design). [Needs XML_Service-Library]
  • Threading
  • Internationalisation
  • File and Directory classes
  • Logging. [Needs LOG_Service-Library]
  • Settings for applications (Properties, XML)
• Net
  • Sockets. Server and client sockets
  • Protocols. HTTP and CCTP (Cell communication protocol transfer)
  • URI class
• Remote
  • Naming service. [Needs NameServer-Library]
  • Base classes for Stubs and Skeletons
  • RMI classes and interfaces
• Security
  • Secure Hash and Fingerprint classes
  • Security manager
  • Encryption and Decryption streams
• Messaging
  • Message Pool [Needs MessageServer and NameServer]
  • Different message types
• MOM
  • The MOM 2 implementation
  • Module sessions

4. External Packages

The Zeus-Framework is built on top of the stl and some other open source packages:

• Boost Library: Regular expression
  http://www.boost.org/
• ZLib: Compression for filtered streams.
  http://www.zlib.net/
• XercesC: XML Parser
  http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/
• XalanC: XSL Processor
  http://xml.apache.org/xalan-c/
• Log4CXX: Logging library
  http://logging.apache.org/log4cxx/index.html
• CPPUNIT: Test environment
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/cppunit

• BlueZ Lib: Library for bluetooth. Works with linux.
  http://www.bluez.org/lists.html

5. Test

The test application [zeusbaseTest] was written to test the major classes of the ZeusBase library. The test application needs a CPPUint library witch is included by the project already. Following libraries are needed to run the test sucessfully:

• XML_Service
• NameServer
• MessageServer
• TestModule

The test application will be installed in a local [bin]-directory of the project itself.

The test need also following files such as:

• ./bin/tests/ISO8859-1.txt
• ./bin/tests/test.properties
• ./bin/tests/Text.txt
• ./bin/tests/UserData.xml
• ./bin/tests/UTF16_bigEndian.txt
• ./bin/tests/UTF16_littleEndian.txt
• ./bin/tests/XMLFile1.xml
• ./bin/tests/XMLFile2.xml
• ./bin/tests/XMLTest001.xml
