Notice I don't even touch the server code.
btw, if the video doesn't load the first time. just refresh that page and it will.

I'm gonna pop up with some reality here: Creating a new app in Red5 is very simple. From creating a new folder in webapps, you can be up and running in seconds with:
streams
live broadcasts
recording
sharedObjects
rooms
and you haven't even touched a stitch of serverside code at this point. I've done it - I know. Now, if you want to get more granular, then you can add web.properties and the other files to get more specific about what IP that app is bound to etc, but that's as easy as editing the simple files (no more difficult that editing the xml files for FMS).
I think the conversation was getting out of touch with what's really going on and how we've setup Red5. A flash developer doesn't need to know spring/java - I think the guys that DO know it get confused because of what they know. but trust me when I say, i've set up several new apps, and I don't know JACK CRAP about Java/spring (Luke's seen my java skills - very upsetting ;)
anyway, I hadn't heard anyone stand up and say "we've been working toward the ease of use goal and pretty well acheived it" so I thought I would do it ;)On 11/9/06, hank williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:It sounds to me like we need to explore some use cases and make sure
that red5 *is* usable in a simple way that can be documented in a
getting started tutorial. If there are important things that require
in depth knowledge, the thing to do is to adjust the defaults and or
add functions that do all the things that are hard to do on startup.
There shouldnt be that much that needs to be configured to get
started. If what Dan is saying below means that to modify the location
a stream is saved to in java requires a lot of hoop jumping then that
probably needs to be smoothed over because that is fairly basic.
Perhaps Dan, you could put together a document that describes some of
the problems you had and solutions that you found. This is not for
documentation, but because I think it is important for everyone to be
able to see clearly, and in detail where the rough edges are. I think
it is very easy to become de-sensitized to how hard certain things
are. Your experience in getting things working is **incredibly**
valuable and could really help to make the product better. I would
hate to work hard to document something that is hard to do when it
would have been much easier to make an API adjustment that just makes
it easier.
