Hi All,
Based on all the discussion we had so far I like to propose the following
strategy for creating a common set of examples and a getting started guide
for Qpid.
a) I propose we have a common set of examples across all the languages.
- Currently we have such a set of examples for java, c++ and python.
These examples are written to demonstrate the capabilities of the standard
AMQP exchanges types.
We can expand this to ruby and .NET when those clients are 0-10 ready.
- This sends a strong statement about our commitment to AMQP and
interoperability.
- These examples can be checked for interop with the respective builds.
For example c++ build checks it's examples with python.
(I also have a cruisecontrol build that runs all examples against each
other)
This ensures that all examples stay current and interoperable.
b) We could then leverage these examples to build a "getting started guide".
- For starters senaka is planing to add a README file for each example
folder and also a description about how to use the verify scripts
- Jonathan has alluded to (in the other thread) contributing some
documentation which we can use as a basis for a more comprehensive tutorial.
All forms of comments and suggestions are most appreciated.
