Building a JRadius Dictionary

In JRadius, known attributes are represented by Java classes. The source for these classes is generated based on FreeRADIUS style dictionary files.

In a shell

Included in the binary distributions is a script called build_dictionary.sh. It looks something like:

 #!/bin/sh
 cd `dirname $0`
 pwd=$(pwd)
 classpath=".:$pwd/lib"
 
 # pickup jradius-core into classpath
 for jar in $pwd/lib/*jradius-core*.jar; do
   classpath="$classpath:$jar" 
 done
 
 # generate source
 CLASSPATH="$classpath" java net.jradius.freeradius.RadiusDictionary net.jradius.dictionary share tmp-dictionary
 
 # compile and jar
 (cd tmp-dictionary
  find . -name \*.java -print > file.list
  echo "Compiling $(wc -l file.list) classes"
  CLASSPATH="$classpath" javac @file.list
  echo "Creating jar jradius-dictionary.jar"
  find . -name \*.class -print > class.list
  jar cf ../jradius-dictionary.jar @class.list
 )
