Hola David, see my comments inline.
I hope below information will help you to take a closer look at Castor.

To get all libs downloaded and all required classes generated you can execute 'mvn install'. For setting up the project with eclipse you have 2 options. One is to use project root as root for a single eclipse project. This way the project definitions included in SVN will be used. The other option is to execute 'mvn eclipse:eclipse' which will create module specific project definitions. This way you get a multi project setup in eclipse. Having said that you may be hit by a bug where maven fails to download a required lib. We are currently trying to resolve this. The spring-xml project you downloaded is only a plugin for spring to use castor for xml data binding. The castor-spring project is a plugin for spring to use castor as persistence (Spring ORM for JDO). The castor-jpa Project is an interface layer around castor that is intended to provide JPA compliant interface to Castor persistence part (JDO). > > > * On the other hand would be particularly interested in knowing > where information could expand on this idea for GSOC2011, which > would be the most appropriate documents to study and understand > more specifically the improvement and especially if the module > to download is the spring-xml or another. > Depending on the idea you are interested in I would suggest to directly conntact the possible mentor that is included on the ideas page (Werner or myself). Another possibility is to connect to our irc. With an irc-client this would be irc://irc.codehaus.org/castor or by web proxy http://irc.codehaus.org at castor channel. > > > Thanks a lot! > > David Martín > Spainish student on computer sciences > -- Syscon Ingenieurbüro für Meß- und Datentechnik GmbH Ralf Joachim Raiffeisenstraße 11 72127 Kusterdingen Germany Tel. +49 7071 3690 52 Mobil: +49 173 9630135 Fax +49 7071 3690 98 Internet: www.syscon.eu E-Mail: ralf.joac...@syscon.eu Sitz der Gesellschaft: D-72127 Kusterdingen Registereintrag: Amtsgericht Stuttgart, HRB 382295 Geschäftsleitung: Jens Joachim, Ralf Joachim
