Re: Adding components to an instance of OFBiz
Now you can see why some of us don't spend time on those other, derivative software packages. There are some benefits, but many deterrents, so you have to weigh those. I personally like the idea of adding Add-on management to OFBiz and I doubt that it would be all that difficult, but as is the case with everything in OFBiz, it has to be driven by the people contributing the code. Anyways, I know this doesn't get you the feature you're looking for implemented yet, but make a JIRA issue if there isn't one already there, and it's likely to get worked on before too long.

Re: Adding components to an instance of OFBiz
I have the same question as Ruth had: Is anyone working on such Add-on management or do we have any plan for this feature? Furthermore, now I can see some other softwares, which are on top of ofbiz, are having more and more features which actually should be in ofbiz framework or core application level, like Add-on management, domain driven support, Ajax, more friendly report or dashboard, etc. (I am not that technical, so maybe I am wrong) As end customer or service vendor, if we choose any of those softwares, then we have to face a big problem that is how to sync ofbiz and that chosen software. (Normally, those softwares will get synced with ofbiz trunk in every big release. That means we have to wait...but sometimes we just cannot.) I know it is easy to just throw such a question but hard to come up with a solution.

Re: Adding components to an instance of OFBiz
+1 It does make sense to keep the deployment independent of IDE's. If an IDE can not deal with a well written ant or maven build files(build.xml/pom.xml) then developers need not to depend sp much on IDE's Ruth Hoffman wrote: Hi Aswath: There are a few reasons why I'd want to do this as part of OFBiz and not Eclipse: 1) If done as part of Eclipse, I would need to maintain both OFBiz and Eclipse code or at/least continually test both and keep in synch. 2) Not everyone uses Eclipse - or an IDE for that matter. Why force someone to install and maintain an Eclipse instance just to get this functionality? 3) From experience, I have found that offloading tasks such as this to an IDE is a recipe for failure or at least a recipe to buy more equipment and more unnecessary supporting software. For example, I recently did some work with IBM Websphere & RAD7 - which is just Eclipse on steroids. In order to use RAD7, in needed one of the following: a Windows XP system, SuSe/Redhat Linux or AIX. A little frustrating for me since I like developing with Eclipse on a MAC. But, I couldn't even get started with the project until I had RAD7 installed. The manager for the project insisted that I use RAD7...anyhow, I think you see where I'm going.

Re: Adding components to an instance of OFBiz
Hi Aswath: There are a few reasons why I'd want to do this as part of OFBiz and not Eclipse: 1) If done as part of Eclipse, I would need to maintain both OFBiz and Eclipse code or at/least continually test both and keep in synch. 2) Not everyone uses Eclipse - or an IDE for that matter. Why force someone to install and maintain an Eclipse instance just to get this functionality? 3) From experience, I have found that offloading tasks such as this to an IDE is a recipe for failure or at least a recipe to buy more equipment and more unnecessary supporting software. For example, I recently did some work with IBM Websphere & RAD7 - which is just Eclipse on steroids. In order to use RAD7, in needed one of the following: a Windows XP system, SuSe/Redhat Linux or AIX. A little frustrating for me since I like developing with Eclipse on a MAC. But, I couldn't even get started with the project until I had RAD7 installed. The manager for the project insisted that I use RAD7...anyhow, I think you see where I'm going. I've seen this sort of think happen over and over again. Just my 2. Ruth aswath narayana wrote: I think it will be a good idea to do administration of components in OFBiz.

Re: Adding components to an instance of OFBiz
Hey, an Eclipse plugin that understand the OFBiz xml file structures and relationships between screens, controllers, loaders, forms, menus, minilang, servicedefs,... that would be awesome! I know that's not what were talking about, but developing an application on OFBiz in Eclipse is very "unsatisfying". Continually, using the workspace search refactoring screens, properties, . I've never done any Eclipse plugin work before, anybody else have a comment on difficulty involved? - Original Message - From: "aswath narayana" To: user@ofbiz.apache.org Sent: Sunday, April 19, 2009 11:42:40 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: Re: Adding components to an instance of OFBiz I think it will be a good idea to do administration of components in OFBiz.
