Jumpstart Ms SQL server database section says we NEED THESE JARS TO HAVE
AN APP WHICH USES DBFORMS
- Struts v. 1.0.2
- commons-beanutils.jar
-commons-collections.jar
- commons-digester.jar
- commons-logging.jar
- commons-validator.jar
- log4j.jar
- cos.jar
AND I KNOW WE ALSO NEED
xerces (which is not listed above because I think that MS setup has a
tomcat or java sdk version that has it included)
xalan : FOR DEVGUI
servletapi : INCLUDED IN TOMCAT (MUST BE 4.X AS TRY/CATCH/FINALLY CLAUSE
NEEDS SERVLETAPI 2.3
protomatter : If WE USE THAT CONNECTION POOL
hsqldb : IF WE USE HENNER'S BOOKSTORE EXAMPLE
jasperreports : IF WE WANT TO MAKE THOSE REPORTS
WHAT ABOUT:
jdbc 2.0
commons-dbcp
commons-pool : JAKARTA CONNECTION POOL????
commons-lang
commons-util
WHAT SHOULD WE BE TELLING USERS ABOUT THESE JARS? IS IT NECESSARY FOR
EVERYONE TO PUT THEM IN WEB-APP/LIB AT INSTALL TIME????????
NOTE: I think we should document in project.xml what each jar is used
for example, this is helpful:
<!--
- j2ee.jar is used to compile the GUI for DbForms, it provides
- the varios javax.xml classes like Streamer and
TransformationFactory.
- It is not needed by the webapp, and can be commented out.
-->
Other jars such as commons-lang have no notes and so who knows what it
is needed for????? I have it in my webapp/lib but don't have time to
test it by taking it out and trying dbf without it just now.
Using <war.bundle.jar>true</war.bundle.jar> to tell what is needed might
be really as clearly jasperreports, protomatter, hsqldb ect are only
needed if you happen to use those features. Or do we want to tell
everyone to install all the jars in installation so they can use those
features later.
