Thank you for letting me know about the NetBeans support for Google
App Engine on Sun's Project Kenai. I'm glad that this worked for you.
Unfortunately, I couldn't get this to work for me.

Installing the NetBeans plug-in broke my app building, and I couldn't
get the NetBeans GAE web server to run. My NetBeans project's "ant-
deploy.xml" had been automatically altered to point to my "C:\[...]
\appengine-java-sdk-1.3.0\config\user\ant-macros.xml", which needed
its "appengine.sdk.home" property amending (as one would expect since
this is an example file only). I also could not see how to amend the
plug-in's ".jar" file list, in order to stop double-jar contention
during building.

The long and short of it is is that I have now uninstalled this plug-
in, repaired most of the minor damage left after the uninstall, and
will press on debugless-on-GAE for now (dipping into debugging-with-
MySQL-and-Tomcat when needed). Oh well.

Should Google launch an official NetBeans GAE plug-in in the future, I
would welcome that!

... but I don't see any record written on it. What am I missing?
----------------------------------------------------------------
I presume that you expected to make some objects persistent using JDO.
Do you have any idea which part(s) of your config or code could be
responsible?


I am trying to make my application to be deployable not just on google
app engine
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I use Key as Encoded String for for all my persistent entities. As the
GAE documentation states:

"Similar to Key, but the value is the encoded string form of the key.
Encoded string keys allow you to write your application in a portable
manner and still take advantage of App Engine datastore entity
groups."

I trust that my app is not BigTable dependent, but any other non-
Google datastore would have to be "Java-and-JDO-friendly" for my app
to work without major changes. (As I said before, there are some
differences between MySQL and BigTable for JDO data exchange (for
example: finding an object by ID). I have overcome these in config-
directed code.)
