[swx] Minimal SWX PHP setup.

[Hans Elgelid]

Thanks for the summary.
I sure want to use the SWX Service Explorer and Data Analyzer and they 
as you say, they use IP and AMFPHP to communicate. So now to verify my 
understanding, I wonder from the following ant code:

<macrodef name="copy_swx">
        <attribute name="destDir"/>
        <attribute name="size"/>
        <sequential>
            <!--Switch statement see: 
http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/ant-contrib/manual/tasks
                http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net
                Copy ant-contrib-0.3.jar to ant/lib or 
eclipse/plugins/org.apache.ant_1.6.5/lib -->
            <taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties"/>
            <switch value="@{size}">
                <case value="small">
                    <!-- 
http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/copy.html -->
                    <echo>Copying small part of swx to @{destDir} 
------------------</echo>
                    <copy todir="@{destDir}" overwrite="true">
                        <fileset dir="scripts">
                            <include name="swx/php/*.php"/>
                            <include name="swx/php/core/amf/**"/>
                            <include name="swx/php/core/shared/**"/>
                            <include name="swx/php/lib/*.php"/>
                            <include name="swx/php/services/Simple.php"/>
                        </fileset>
                    </copy>
                </case>
                <case value="medium">
                    <echo>Copying medium part of swx to @{destDir} 
-----------------</echo>
                    <copy todir="@{destDir}" overwrite="true">
                        <fileset dir="scripts" excludes="**/*.txt">
                            <include name="swx/php/*.php"/>
                            <include name="swx/php/core/**"/>
                            <include name="swx/php/lib/*.php"/>
                            <include name="swx/php/lib/phpFlickr/**"/>
                            <include name="swx/php/lib/ezsql/shared/**"/>
                            <include name="swx/php/lib/ezsql/mysql/**"/>
                            <include name="swx/php/services/**"/>
                        </fileset>
                    </copy>
                </case>
                <default>
                    <echo>Copying all of swx to @{destDir} 
-------------------------</echo>
                    <copy todir="@{destDir}" overwrite="true">
                        <fileset dir="scripts">
                            <include name="swx/**"/>
                        </fileset>
                    </copy>
                </default>
            </switch>
        </sequential>
    </macrodef>

1. Is the the "small" case above pretty much the minimal configuration 
for running swx on a production server while still being able to debug 
using the SWX Service Explorer and Data Analyzer from my full localhost 
setup?

2. Is the "medium" case above pretty much the minimal configuration for 
using all of swx on a MySql production server?

Trying to come up with something for the 28th,
