I've had similar problems with getting up & running; because it's certainly not so straightforward; and then after trying and trying I find that it is a bug or a feature that hasn't yet been implemented.
Some things that would help an absolute beginner i) a highly *visible* section highlighting what will definately not work - eg JBoss 3 deployment ii) a sample small application that can be deployed in, at least, both WebLogic and JBoss (if possible) - certainly in more than 1 App Server. Just a small & simple application covering the basics. (this is what I was working on for myself until I hit the JBoss 3 problems...) iii) yes, the FAQ will be greatly appreciated Chris -=-=- -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 24 January 2002 16:01 To: Nortje Andrew Cc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Re: [Xdoclet-user] Documentation You're right Andrew. We also have to WTFM ;-) I think Ara made an attempt to set up an FAQ on jguru.com. How's that going Ara? The xtags subproject will describe the tags in one or more xml files. These xml files will be used to generate documentation (among other things). Perhaps you have some tips about what you'd like to see in the Howto? - I mean, it's not always obvious to us developers what is not-so-obvious to ordinary users. We'd like to hear your suggestions. How about this: 1) Setting up your Ant build script 2) Writing a simple EJB 3) Building the EJB 4) Deploying the EJB 5) Testing the EJB Basically everything is in the docs/examples, but I agree with you that there is no clear description of the process (what steps to follow in what order). Would this be helpful for newbies? -Aslak ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nortje, Andrew" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thursday, January 24, 2002 2:37 pm Subject: [Xdoclet-user] Documentation > > XDoclet Developers > > I know this is open source but I think a LITTLE more work on the > documentation will go a LONG way to making this product more > usable.
