Hi.
I am a new user of xindice and was trying to compile and deploy
xindice and faceing few issues.
Hi and welcome!
I have the following issues and not sure if i am doing anything wrong
or documentation needs to be updated.
1. How-Tos -> Compilation -> Compiling Xindice on Unix
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verify the compilation
If the compile was succeeded, you will find the output files in the
current directory.
quintara:~>ls -l dist
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue: Binaries are created in the current directory and not in dist directory.
2. How-Tos -> Installation -> Xindice Tomcat How-To
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are using Linux, your session might resemble:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/local/xml-xindice# ls -oa dist
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue: Binaries are created in the current directory and not in dist directory.
These both observations are correct. There were changes in directory structure
after 1.1b5 (last documentation update), so some documents are not quite up to date.
3. Xindice 1.1 Developer Guide
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Setting up Your Build Environment
Once you have your Java VM properly configured you need to add a few
jar files to your CLASSPATH. The following list of jars are required
and should be made available on your CLASSPATH. All required jars can
be found in xindice/java/lib
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue: Build doesn't create java/lib directory. Moreover its dependent
on libraries in tools directory.
Jar files has been moved to lib/, and lib/endorsed/, and there are some
additional libraries there which are not listed on the page.
However you do not need libraries in tools/ for compiling code: there are only
ant and unit test libraries there.
Please correct me if I am wrong. Moreover I am a J2EE developer and
would like to contribute to this project.
The good first step would be to send patches to documentation - to bring it up
to date. Please look into src/documentation/content/xdocs/ directory in the svn
checkout of xindice trunk.
