----------------------------------------
Hi Jacques,
Thank you for the feedback. To note:
- I think the start-batch and start-batch-secure should simply be replaced as
follows:
linux: ./gradlew 'ofbiz --start' &
windows: start gradlew.bat 'ofbiz --start' (I think we might need a flag)
- No need for shell scripts, I can make "shortcut tasks" but then are there any
default values for these parameters? If yes, tell me their values and I will
create a task for it.
- Please note there are two types of tasks as I designed it. The first is OFBiz
server tasks, they always start with 'ofbiz' or 'ofbizDebug' or 'ofbizSecure'
They are really just a replacement to java -jar ofbiz.jar with the correct JVM
arguments. The other set of tasks are called directly by name. I designed it
this way so people talk to the server directly. Again, it is very easy to
create shortcut tasks, but I just prefer minimalism. If you want shortcut or
convenience tasks, I will add them. For example, loadDemo and testInteg are
shortcut tasks. loadDemo translates to 'ofbiz --load-data'
Again, thank you for your feedback, and feel free to pitch in anything else you
want.
