Hi all,
As a first step towards improving documentation on Qpid, and understanding
how it works, I wanted to run some examples. I first of all wanted to try
out the Java examples, but mainly due to no-documentation, I couldn't really
get through. However, I managed to successfully install and try out the C++
examples, and I'm looking forward to create documentation in this regard.
There are few questions that I would like to sort out, before getting
started.
1. Isn't it better to name examples/examples to something like examples/src
Yes, this area is a bit messy right now - the trick is that most of the C++
build uses automake, but the examples have a plain vanilla makefile so they can
be built against a qpid install as well as in an SVN checkout. The way its done
right now is not ideal, I have some thoughts about cleaning it up but not much
time :(
2. What does verfify and verify_all do? When I run it I get something like
this
These scripts run the C++ and python examples against each other and
automatically verify that the output is as expected. They are also supposed to
work both in SVN and against an installation. They've been turned off in the C++
build for a while due to temporary C++/python incompatibilities during the
migration to AMQP 0-10 so it's possible they have become broken. I plan to turn
them on again next week and will sort out any problems I find. These scripts are
part of the developer test framework rather than an end-user tool.
Great to see you're interested in the project, [EMAIL PROTECTED] has
done a lot of example documentation work so I suggest collaborating with him.
