ADTop is built as a Maven project which makes it easier to install the tool. Depending on users' preferences (command line or IDE), two paths can be taken to build the tool.
After cloning or downloading the repository, execute mvn package -Dmaven.test.skip=true in the terminal
to build the project. (We use this argument to skip the tests that are currently in progress.)
Once all the tests have been implemented, simply using mvn package should successfully build it. The package goal of maven
also executes all the tests within the project.
Import the project in your favorite IDE and do a clean build. Following this, just do a direct run to execute it.
If the build is successful, then the compiled .jar file can be found within the
target folder. Just execute the .jar file and ADTop is up and running.
For a Linux-based distribution, run the .jar file using the following command:
java -jar adtop-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar
ADTop uses JavaFX which is required to create screens in FXML.
The class GUI does the indexing of the FXML file that is created via Scene builder.
This FXML file is connected to Index controller which contains other controllers.
FXML allows structuring as a nested application. The attributes of the FXML file
can be accessed using the @FXML tags.
The Index controller is the principal controller within the project with a principle attribute
called Pack. It contains all the models used in ADTop, measure containers, attack-defense trees, etc.
All the models used within the tool are in the model class.
The Jackson package is used to import/export Measure container(s).
Apache POI is used to import/export Association Matrix and Apache XML is used for parsing the XML.
Note: ADT is a bidirectional object which is the reason for a tree to be parsed manually.
