Thanks Oliver. I'll take a look at the XML serialization code and come back with any specific questions I come up with.
As for commit access, I've faxed the form in to the ASF and given Daniel the info he needs so forward on, so you'll have to ask him for more info (let me know what he says :) ). -James >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 7/2/2004 12:47:34 PM >>> Hi James! I agree Javadocs must be improved! I guess you will be granted CVS write access soon (what is the state of your account creation process?) and will be able to update the Javadocs in the CVS yourself. The way I went to understand what all those Vectors and Hashtables mean was to look at the code that serialized it to XML - and the XML itself. I do not know who did this code initially, but my store stuff was only based on it. As I am honestly very short of time, the help I can offer is to anwser more specific questions in this list. Provided I know the answer ;) Oliver James Mason wrote: > How much begging/bribing would I have to do to get someone to spruce up > the javadocs a little?
