Discussion about sample project sources

[Bolz, Michael]

Hi all together,

Based on the discussion around the release of sample/tutorial projects as ZIP 
files I want to start a discussion,
whether such samples (and sources) should be put into the Olingo repository 
(git)?
And if “yes” were those sample should be located (e.g. “samples” folder)?
And how those samples should be integrated in the maven project (e.g. not 
referenced from parent pom)?

I’am open for any suggestions and ideas.

My current favoured solutions is:
Put samples in Olingo git 
within the “samples” folder (e.g. “samples/tutorials/read”; 
“samples/tutorials/write”; “…”)
and do not include the whole samples folder into the project pom for the common 
build process
(e.g. build samples only “on demand / manual” via a maven profile setting -> 
see example below).

Best regards,
Michael
