hi

after lots of tries and searching the mailinglist i finally got torque
up and running as stand-alone with mysql. first of all you should read
what's already on pete's tutorial at http://www.kazmier.com/~kaz/torque

here's how i got it working from there and with the standard docs, so
some knowledge is assumed. i'm new to torque though, so maybe this is
not always the recommended way. but maybe some of this is also useful
for the tutorial, pete?

- download & extract jakarta-turbine-torque-src.tar.gz
from http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-turbine/nightly/

- cd into & mkdir lib

- echo "lib.repo=lib" > build.properties

- ant update-jars (took 35s with DSL ;))

- ant

- ant install-jar

- ant dist

- cp bin/torque/torque/* <your project dir> -a
  and cd there

- replace or edit schema/project-schema.xml (optional)

- edit schema/Torque.properties, especially the database settings

- edit build.properties
    project=<your project name> (optional)
    targetPackage=<your package name> (optional)
    and the database settings, i made
    createDatabaseUrl and databaseUrl identical

- cp mm-mysql-*.jar lib

- place lib/*.jar in your CLASSPATH

- "ant" now generates the SQL and JAVA files

- edit schema/id-table-schema.xml: add name="<your db name>" 
  to prevent "CREATE DATABASE default" error in script.
  
- "ant project-create-db project-insert-sql" 
   now creates the database

- in the java code you just need "Torque.init("Torque.properties");"
  maybe with the right path (i used absolute for far).

- from here on i use my own ant build file and just call the 
  torque targets from there.

hope this helps anyone

bye
fabian
