CE316 Integrated Assignment Environment

Integrated Assignment Environment (IAE) is a local desktop application for creating assignment projects, managing grading configurations, processing student submission ZIP files, running configured compile or interpretation commands, and reviewing results.

The application is packaged as a JavaFX desktop app. It does not require a server.

Requirements

• JDK 21 for building from source.
• Windows 10 or later for building the final installer.
• Internet access for the first Maven wrapper run, unless dependencies are already cached.

The Windows installer bundles a Java runtime image, so end users do not need to install Java separately.

Build From Source

Windows:

.\mvnw.cmd -v
.\mvnw.cmd clean test

macOS/Linux:

chmod +x ./mvnw
./mvnw -v
./mvnw clean test

Create the application package/runtime image:

.\mvnw.cmd clean javafx:jlink

Expected runtime output:

target\release\iae-runtime

Windows Installer

Build the final Windows installer:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\scripts\build-windows-release.ps1 -InstallerType exe -AppVersion 1.0.0

Expected installer output:

target\release\windows\installer\Integrated Assignment Environment-1.0.0.exe

The installer is built with jpackage, includes the bundled runtime image, uses the IAE logo/icon where supported, adds a Start Menu entry, and requests a desktop shortcut.

Source Submission Package

Create a clean source ZIP:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\scripts\create-source-package.ps1

Expected source ZIP:

dist\CE316_Project_Team_10-source.zip

The source package is created from tracked source files and excludes generated build output, old release folders, IDE output, and local temporary files.
