The homepage should reflect this. I've successfully used the Antelope example for my project, and everything is just moving right on since I started to check it out.
I suggest you do the same. And perhaps someone could update the homepage with a little new info? /M -----Original Message----- From: Eric Pugh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 8. september 2004 17:48 To: Turbine Users List Subject: RE: What is flux tool used for !!!!!! Flux should be taken out behind the woodshed and shot.. It looks like it does a lot, but doensn't.. it's just a thin wrapper around some methods plus some gui screens that are ugly.. So yes, you don't need Flux, pretend it never exists! Now, check out Antelope.. All the SecurityServiceAdapter does is allow you to port an existing turbine app to use Fulcrum security as the backend. Old Style: Turbine <--> Turbine Security All reads go to Turbine Security All modifications to security roles/permissions etc done through Turbine Security New Style: Turbine <--> Adapter <--> Fulcrum All reads (from Turbine) go through Adapter to Fulcrum All modifications to security roles/permissions go DIRECTLY to fulcrum. Now, in antelope, they didn't use (I don't believe) the integrated Turbine security methods, but go directly to Fulcrum for them.. Hence they don't need the adapter.. So, the adapter is just used if you need to call existing TurbineSecurity class methods..
