Some demo programs in -bin distributions are not mentioned in
demo/programs/readme.html
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-3225
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3225
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Demos/Scripts
Affects Versions: 10.3.1.4
Environment: Derby -bin distributions
Reporter: John H. Embretsen
Currently in trunk, there are 8 demo (sub)directories in the demo/programs
directory scheduled to be included in -bin distributions, each containing one
or more demo or sample applications:
localcal/
nserverdemo/
scores/
simple/
simplemobile/
toursdb/
vtis/
workingwithderby/
With a -bin distribution of Derby, a user should be able to get an overview of
the included demo program offering by opening demo/programs/readme.html in a
web browser (there is a link to this from the top-level index.html file). In
trunk, we are currently missing short descriptions of and links to:
- localcal (see DERBY-1936) [also in 10.3]
- scores (see DERBY-1993) [also in 10.3]
- vtis (see DERBY-3129)
Each of these demos have a README file in their respective subdirectories, that
could easily be linked to.*
The remaining 5 demos are accessible from and described by the readme.html file
(readme.html is a frameset; the actual references and descriptions are in
navbar.html and demo.html. These files are placed in the java/demo directory in
the source tree).
*)
Also, one should make sure that the README files and other instructions are
suitable for -bin distributions, not only -src distributions or SVN working
copies. Otherwise, these particular demos should not be included in -bin
distributions. For example both localcal/README, scores/README and vtis/README
currently refer to build scripts that are not scheduled for inclusion in -bin
distros.
