I've played around with Roller in the past but this is my first time trying
to implement a new feature. I'm working with Netbeans 6.1 and have to admit
the little bit of ant I learned years ago isn't helping me.
Right now, to test my changes, I modified the trunk/apps/weblogger/build.xml
to split up dist into dist-build and dist so that I don't have to build the
war file if I don't want to. (Saves some time)
I added a context.xml for the embedded tomcat server in netbeans which
points to webapps/build. I set the context to reloadable but I get SEVERE:
Error listenerStart which prevents it from restarting. So I have to then
restart tomcat.
What I want to be able to do is set up a target that will undeploy,
dist-build then redeploy with one click on the context menu. Also to be able
to do the same to debug the webapp.
It seems like things are there I just need to define some custom properties
like ${staging} but it's not clear to me where to do this.
I'm working with the sources I got from subversion a couple of days ago.
One more question, is there a page that describes how to submit patches?
This would be my first contribution back to an OS project that I didn't
start. I'm almost done and I'd be able to get up to speed with roller faster
if I could use the integrated debugger.
Thanks
