No instructions on how to use BXML in an application
----------------------------------------------------
Key: PIVOT-840
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-840
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Bug
Components: demos
Affects Versions: 2.0.1
Environment: All Environments
Reporter: Robert Brown III
All demos and documentation emphasize the use of BXML for specifying the user
interface. All demos are implemented as applets where the system is apparently
able to "find" the BXML file that it needs to create the UI.
Unfortunately, when anyone attempts to use BXML in an actual desktop
application, using the proper "ScriptApplication" class and setting the "src"
property, the application keeps generating an error saying that it "cannot
find" the BXML file.
There are no instructions anywhere in the documentation about deploying a BXML
file with a Pivot application. There is nothing saying where the file should
be, how to get the ScriptApplication to find it, or any demos showing how to
deploy a desktop application in general. There are no real instructions even
for deploying BXML- based Applets!
This is a "show- stopper" making Pivot's BXML mechanism unusable for most
applications, in particular desktops. If people are to use BXML for most
applications, some deployment instructions are seriously needed...
