BJ You are not alone here. Ofbiz is a great huge beast that unless you have lived with it for years, you cannot possibly comprehend it all. Sadly, comments, and examples are fairly minimal. Fortunately, documentation is slowly improving. Now if everyone would just comment the heck out of their work, over time, things will improve.
The biggest problem I see is in the use of SECAs. Things happen with these bad boys that have you have no idea of unless you happened to write the thing.

I have to have examples, and most importantly something that ties things to gather step by step, from a code point on view. I have been looking for a way to put this down for others that have a hard time figuring things out. here is an example. in the /framework/example/webapp/example/WEB-INF/web.xml I would like to see <!-- Dispatcher and delegator are two of many parameter that are passed in context which is a map of parameters search code for examples--> <!-- Search for runsync( in code for how Dispatcher is used--> <context-param> <param-name>localDispatcherName</param-name><param-value>example</param-valu e> <description>A unique name used to identify/recognize the local dispatcher for the Service Engine</description> </context-param> <!-- See http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBTECH/Apache+OFBiz+Technical+Production+Setu p+Guide Database Setup--> <param-name>entityDelegatorName</param-name><param-value>default</param-valu e> <description>The Name of the Entity Delegator to use, defined in entityengine.xml</description> </context-param> I am willing to add what I have learned this way into the example. Hopefully others will do the same
