Hi,
is there any kind of documentation available for the
configuration parameters (the "yoko.orb.*" properties mentioned
in the ORB_impl class) of the core orb?
If not, where would I start such a document? wiki, website, or
core/src/xdocs?
The wiki is the best place to put such a document.
OK, I've started the OrbConfiguration page.
However, I think that ultimately such information depends on the
ORB version, so it would be better to have it in svn, along with
the code it documents.
As a user, I would expect that this info is be part of the product
download, and it's not clear to me how to do this. The technical
problems of creating a snapshot from Maven might be solvable, but
how do we handle the IP issues when non-committers contribute to
the wiki?
Anyway, I've started collecting the information in the wiki for
now, as you suggested.
Storing documentation in a wiki is a standard ASF practice. The
whole point of having the wiki is to let the community to contribute
to the documentation. IIUC, committers are not necessarily the IP
guardians. Committers are people who can competently integrate code
and patches into the code base.
Geronimo does a great job at handling versions, http://
cwiki.apache.org/geronimo/.
