Re: [C++] Cleaning up samples
Hi, I've just checked in updated VC7 project files to allow the new Calculator sample to build on Windows.

The README should have a description of what the sample does, what it is trying to demonstrate, and a summary of the various different configurations and platforms on which it will run. I.e. you might want to run the local or web services client on windows or *nix. So there will necessarily be quite a number of deployment and runtime instructions for what is actually a relatively simple demo. Your idea of having separate DEPLOY files for the different configurations sounds like the way to go. It might also be useful to include screen shots of the command line showing the run commands and the expected output. Also it would be good to have some discussion of how to turn debug on and what it shows you. This shouldn't be done on a sample by sample basis but I find it quite instructive. I have come across a set of typical configuration errors when using the samples, e.g. the one that always catches me is http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY-499. We should create a samples FAQ I guess. There is quite a number of environement variables and paths that need to be set before it all works. We should review the run scripts to see if we can add more checking as they already check that appropriate environment variables are set. If you want some help with these things let me know. S
Re: [C++] Cleaning up samples
For each sample project I think that it is a good idea to include an overview javadoc page that includes information about common setup etc. This would include essentually the same information that you outlined for the readme but provides a good means to link to external docs like specifications, traditional javadoc content such as APIs and can ( and should ) be placed on our website. This is what I did for the SDO samples and I think that worked well. If people do not like it I can change it so that the it matches the desired readme format but I prefer the overview option so that it is consistent.

[C++] Cleaning up samples
