Hi - In a comment on another book, the follow question was asked:
"There's one more question that I wonder if I should file a separate bug for. The new book, workingwithderby, has a conrefs file that doesn't include the "prod" settings that the other ones have. Instead it just hardcodes "Derby" and "DERBY_HOME" and whatnot into the text files. I don't know how important this is. If you think it's worth doing, I can take it on. The books should probably be consistent." I agree with this comment and think that the conref files should be consistent for all of the Derby books. The conref files contain words that are "common references" in many topics. The advantage of adding words to the conrefs files is that when something changes, such as the name of an environment variable, it ionly needs to be changed in the conrefs files. The change is then automatic for all of the (often dozens) of files that use that common term. Common words that might be changed should be added to the conrefs files and not hardcoded into the topics. What do others think? -- Laura Stewart
