Henri Biestro commented on JEXL-43:
-----------------------------------


I guess I can't just create a patch on xdocs/index.xml as a starting point since there is a catch-22 on a "site" issue (aka we have to commit it before release but can't expose it before it is released), How should I proceed ? Is there any common procedure to update index.xml? Something like create a new index-2.0.xml & somehow have a directive that instructs which index-xx.xml to use to produce index.html on the site (which would be the last action for release).
Where should the list of features appear  (&highlight for new ones)? I guess the JIRA derivable info is not going to cut it (wouldn't to me if I was discoverng the project...).. Should that be in a javadoc (package.html) ?
Much guidance needed here.

Rahul Akolkar commented on JEXL-43:
-----------------------------------

I'd create a new language reference (we have a 1.0 version), a index-2.0 (or some such name) that explains the 2.0 API. Then link them under the "Development" LHS menu on the site.

Its not a catch-22 in the sense that we can add 2.0 docs to the xdocs now, we can even generate the docs and deploy the site as long as we clearly mark them as not yet released (under development). We must ofcourse always host the latest release docs and reference such that it is immediately available (and more prominent than the SVN latest).

Come 2.0 RC time, we can switch to bring the 2.0 docs more to the fore. We'll want to retain the 1.0 docs on the site, for users who haven't upgraded. Some of the other Commons components list multiple release docs on the site, looking at them may offer some more ideas.

Sebb commented on JEXL-43:
--------------------------

Correction - the website does not describe the [] operator when used with text strings rather than numbers.

I propose to add something like

====
HashMap Access

HashMap entries be accessed using either square brackets or a dotted string, e.g. 

map[key]
or
map.key

for example:

map = [ 'a' => 0]
map['a'] = map.a+ 1

====

OK?
