Re: Daytrader for Tomcat

[Joe Bohn <jo...@earthlink.net>]

Hi Forrest,

How is this working coming along?  Are you at a point you are ready to 
contribute it yet (or was it already contributed and I just missed it)?

I guess we would still have to figure out how to manage the two 
implementations but it sounds interesting to have the simplified version 
available.  It would be cool if we could figure out a way (using 
plugins?) to install the core Daytrader (simplified) and extend it with 
the full function by another plugin for more robust environments.

Thanks,
Joe

I will make progress on it as part of G 2.2 sample release work. Thank you
for patience.

If there is anything sounds urgent that you want from me, feel free to let
me know.

Forrest

Hi Forrest,

Are you planning to do anything more with the Daytrader?

There was some discussion in 
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAYTRADER-68 about next steps with 
this web-only version of daytrader ... but that was a while ago and I'm 
not sure if you are still working on these items or if they were 
displaced by other more pressing issues.

Included in jira discussion you mentioned that you would be working on 
several things, among those:
- a description of how the web-only version differs from the full 
Daytrader including changes made for removal of EJB/JPA dependencies.
- support for jetty in addition to tomcat for the web-only version
- better instructions in readme for installation on both the minimal 
assemblies and tomcat/jetty containers
- investigation into non-container managed JPA for db access
- possible creation of plugins for the webonly installation
- and perhaps some work on the dependencies and datasource deployment plan.

Can you fill us in on the latest on these items?

Thanks,
Joe

Are you getting any closer Forrest?  As Kevan mentioned, it might be 
helpful to get this contributed so that others can collaborate.

Thanks,
Joe

Hi Forrest,
Things don't have to be perfect before you can start collaborating  
with community members. Understand the desire to get everything "just  
so". But you might find that other people are willing to help and  
answer questions.

Hi Joe,

We recently found some problems in some primitive servlets, so the tomcat
version is not really ready for contribution.

As to how to package it into daytrader code base, rough idea is to create a
sub module in daytrader root, and use maven-war-plugin to create a war ball
for tomcat deployment.

|-- It would be cool if we could figure out a way (using plugins?) to
install the core Daytrader (simplified) and extend it with the full function
|-- by another plugin for more robust environments.

I will try to see if it is possible, thank you for your suggestion :)

Cheers,
Forrest
