Hi Shiva,
here are some thoughts I believe may help improve usability.
- Add a *Back* button on each screen. Currently the only option is *Cancel* if
you made a mistake while entering the data.
- It would be cool to have the ability to create an additional resource
reference directly from the wizard. For example when installing a DB app it
would be nice to be able to create the JDBC connection pool as well as
specifying the resource ref name right there. Currently it lists existing
pools, maybe add a *New* button, create the pool and then come back to the
previous screen. Same thing would be useful for JMS, java mail, etc.
I'll keep testing it and will provide more feedback. BTW, nice work!!!
Cheers!
Hernan

The Plan Creator portlet/wizard in Admin Console is now complete.

Features:
a) EJB, EJB Local, JDBC Connection Pool, JMS Connection Factory, JMS
Destination, JavaMail Session & Web Service *References *declared in the
web-apps are auto discovered and users are asked to resolve them by
listing Available Resources in the server environment to which they can
be linked.
b) Above type of references declared inside the Java classes through
*Annotations *are also auto discovered.
c) Simplified configuration of *Security*.
I have only done limited testing so please raise any issues you might
face while using.
I am next working on handling EJB jars. Since most of the infrastructure
code is already in place, this should be complete in the next 1 or 2
weeks (ready to be included in 2.1 release).
Comments/Feedback/Suggestions Welcome.
