Robert Liguori commented on XMLBEANS-463:
-----------------------------------------
The tutorial reads:
The output should look like the instance output above, but with the following
added as the last <line-item> element, immediately before the <shipper> element.
<line-item>
<description>Backyard Astronomer's Guide, The</description>
<per-unit-ounces>5.0</per-unit-ounces>
<price>49.95</price>
<quantity>2</quantity>
</line-item>
but it should read:
The output should look like the instance output above, but with the following
added as the last <line-item> element, immediately before the <shipper> element.
<line-item>
<description>a new item</description>
<per-unit-ounces>5.0</per-unit-ounces>

> Improve the "First Steps with XMLBeans" tutorial

> Key: XMLBEANS-463
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-463
> Project: XMLBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Environment: Tutorial: First Steps with XMLBeans
> http://xmlbeans.apache.org/documentation/tutorial_getstarted.html
> Reporter: Robert Liguori
> Priority: Minor

> Tutorial: First Steps with XMLBeans
> http://xmlbeans.apache.org/documentation/tutorial_getstarted.html
> I have found several issues with the tutorial, as well as some functional
> issues.... below are my initial comments to the tutorial:
> ==============================================
> The opening introduction states, "you'll get a hands on view of two of the
> three technologies that make up version 1 of XMLBeans:". Rather than leaving
> the reader wondering what the third uncovered technology is, it would be nice
> to at least mention it. Note: From the main page of the web site, "I believe
> it's Support for XML DOM".
> Note: I just noticed that the third option is covered a little deeper into
> the tutorial... but it still may be beneficial to mention it upfront.
> ==============================================
> The tutorial reads:
> "To get started, you'll need the following:
> * JDK 1.4 for version 1 XMLBeans releases."
> Observation: Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition, v 1.4.2 has been
> end-of-service life since 2008. I believe 1.5 is also. Since JDK 1.7 was
> just released and the industry standard up to now has been JDK 1.6, I think
> the documentation and testing and deployment of the product, in general,
> should reflect this.
> ==============================================
> The tutorial reads:
> "To get started, you'll need the following:
> ...
> * An XMLBeans version 1 installation. ..."
> Observation: The target here should be a version 2 installation.
> ==============================================
> The tutorial states references, "xpretty schemas\easypo\easypo.xsd".
> However, there is no "easypo" directory in version 2.5.0.
> Therefore, the tutorial should reference, "xpretty schemas\easypo.xsd"
> ==============================================
> The tutorial states:
> "scomp -out tutorials\gettingstarted\lib\easypo.jar schemas\easypo\easypo.xsd"
> However, there is no easy po directory in version 2.5.0 so it should read:
> "scomp -out tutorials\gettingstarted\lib\easypo.jar schemas\easypo\easypo.xsd"
> *** There's an error with this too, as it's trying to run the javac compiler
> from the xmlbeans-2.5.0 folder.
> The fix for this is:
> "scomp -compiler %JDK_HOME%\bin\javac.exe -out
> tutorials\gettingstarted\lib\easypo.jar schemas\easypo\easypo.xsd"
> There's a problem here too, if Java is installed in a directory with a space
> (e.g., "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_26"). That is moving the install to
> "C:\jdk1.6.0_26" works fine. This is a problem as the space should be
> handled.
> Note: Double clicking on the generate JAR file (to see the contents) display
> a dialog box with the following message, "Invalid or corrupt jarfile".
> ==============================================================
> Additional comments will be added to the JIRA issue, until the review is
> completed.
