[jira] Commented: (DROIDS-61) About to commence project possibly
using Droids .. would it be any help if I document development on wiki,
including howto for netbeans IDE?
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DROIDS-61?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12744103#action_12744103 ]
Tony Dietrich commented on DROIDS-61:
-------------------------------------
Sorry Ryan .. I'm new to the Apache site, and frankly it's not the easiest site to find your way around! Apologies for starting out the wrong way :)
I'm working on a J2EE project, so I'll have to see how well droids works when embedded in an EE container before I make any decision to run with Droids as part of the project, but I'll run up a HowTo for adding Droids to NetBeans over the next few days

> Key: DROIDS-61
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DROIDS-61
> Project: Droids
> Issue Type: Question
> Environment: Netbeans 6.7, multiple operating systems
> Reporter: Tony Dietrich
> Priority: Trivial
>
> I have a project running (version1 is in use already, version 2 under development) that needs to search out data from various sources, both by crawling websites and by using RSS feeds. It also needs to accept data e-mailed directly to it, and read an FTP directory to see what has been left there.
> I'm thinking Droids would be useful as a framework for this, with various droids doing the different types of work.
> I notice your documentation is a little sparse. Would it help if I ran a 'work in progress' document on the wiki? This would not only help you guys see how someone is using droids, but also give people a starting point for discussing possible enhancements.
> I'm looking at a 3-6 month timescale for my own project to reach release status, so developments in droids over that timescale would be useful.
> I can already see some features I will need to implement in my own project, so there may be areas where I can feed code back to you guys.
> I'm also using Netbeans, not Eclipse, so I can document the steps needed to get the imports from svn working happily in Netbeans, if that'd help? (Took me around 30 minutes to get it sorted, mainly because I had an older version of svn installed in the IDE.
> Let me know?
