Bob Harner updated TAP5-1753:
-----------------------------
Priority: Major (was: Blocker)
Assignee: Bob Harner (was: Howard M. Lewis Ship)
"Blocker" means development progress (on Tapestry) cannot continue. This is a
major issue, but not a blocker.
> Several Problems/BUGs on Tapestry 5 Tutorial
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TAP5-1753
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-1753
> Project: Tapestry 5
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: documentation
> Reporter: Axel Werner
> Assignee: Bob Harner
> Labels: beginners, tutorial
>
> Hi there,
> im recently trying to learn tapestry5 from the ground up using the tutorial
> provided at
> http://tapestry.apache.org/using-beaneditform-to-create-user-forms.html .
> There i figgured (at least for me) some major Problems or Missing parts in
> the Tutorial that do pretty much BLOCK me from continuing since i cannot
> follow the tutorial from a certain point. I also added other suggestions to
> improve the tutorial or to point you devs onto the missing point. the order
> of the following ordered list is NOT IMPORTANT.
> 1.
> basic projects starting using manualy installed maven and command line
> interface. cool thing! but whats next? Do i have to start any new tapestry
> project using the maven on command line now and import the thing into eclipse
> ?? what about "how to start a basic tapestry5 project from within eclipse?"
> ?? This point is completly missing in the tutorial. just a suggestion/feature
> request for the tutorial.
> 2.
> major problem here/BLOCKER:
> A tutorial should be linear/continuisly. so that one point leads into the
> other, without breaks or missing stuff. I found a place where i miss at least
> several realy important things that BLOCKS me yet from continuing the
> tutorial.
> That is
> http://tapestry.apache.org/using-beaneditform-to-create-user-forms.html ,
> especialy the section about "adding validation".
> If you play through the tutorial step by step like i did, you will get lost
> here!
> Some paragraph says: "Update the getter methods for the lastName,..." - but
> WHERE?? No mention anywhere. You know it? Good! I dont, and i got lost here.
> I "assumed" it may go into the address.java (struct style) class, but if you
> do it, it will FAIL, since there are other important things to know or to do
> first which are also NOT MENTIONED in the tutorial at this point. NEEDS
> ATTENTION.
> 3.
> There seem to be even more ERRORS/MISTAKES in this tutorial. At
> http://tapestry.apache.org/using-tapestry-with-hibernate.html , there is
> mentioned a file
> src/main/java/org/apache/tapestry5/tutorial/entities/Address.java
> which just DOES NOT MATCH the package path that is used in this tapestry5
> tutorial! This may look easy to you, but for someone new like me which is all
> new to the whole java world will have trouble fixing this error.
> The correct tutorial packet path should be:
> src/main/java/com/example/tutorial1/entities/address.java i guess.
> PLease re-check by following the whole tutorial step by step, and you will
> run into these errors/blockings.
> Some apreciation: till here the tutorial is quite good and i love it! pls
> keep up the good work, complete/fix the tutorial and maybe even add some
> additional chapters.
> Hopefully my report/suggestion will find its way to the author/maker of the
> tutorial.
> Thanks n c u
