Hello! As it is suggested in the GetYourArmsAroundIt article from the Wiki, I added System.out.println() statements in each method. And then tried to add/delete items from my slide WebFolder, unfortunately I found nothing on the console?? I feel something is missing :(
Does anybody have any idea??? -----Original Message----- From: James Mason [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 03, 2004 5:49 PM To: Slide Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Need Help ! You can get the 2.1M1 source from http://cvs.apache.org/dist/jakarta/slide/2.1M1/src/ Unfortunately the process of creating Stores is rather poorly documented. There's some info on the Wiki that will help you get started, but you're going to need to look at the source code for the existing Store implementations to really understand anything. The good news is once you get over the initial hump it's not too bad. Also, there are a couple Store implementations that aren't part of the 2.1M1 download (they came later) that you can look at online with viewcvs. Lastly, somewhere on this list awhile ago someone posted a method of getting CVS access through an http proxy (or something like that). If you can find that post it may help you get the latest source.
