[jira] Created: (SHINDIG-1210) Java BUILD documentation needs to be updated

Java BUILD documentation needs to be updated
--------------------------------------------

                 Key: SHINDIG-1210
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-1210
             Project: Shindig
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build, Java
    Affects Versions: 1.1-BETA3, 1.1-BETA2, 1.1-BETA1, 1.0, 1.1-BETA4, 1.1-RC1, 1.0.1
            Reporter: Benjamin McCann


I had significant difficulty building and running the Java server because there are two copies of the documentation, which are both incomplete and have some differences.  I didn't get things working until I found both docs and pieced them together.  One doc is online (http://incubator.apache.org/shindig/developers/java/build.html) and the other is the BUILD-JAVA doc in the project root.
Can we merge the two?  It seems as long as we have two copies of the instructions, that they will always be wrong because someone will update one and not the other.  It'd be much preferable to have just one and either the BUILD-JAVA file can contain just the URL web page or the link on the web can point to the SVN web client version.

Seems reasonable. Anyone have the appropriate Maven mojo to do that
automatically? Or the doc site perms?

-----------------------------------------

I'd prefer BUILD-JAVA -- the closer to the code the docs are, the better.

I'm low on bandwidth, but if you had a suggested patch on the docs I'd be happy to review and commit it.

Thanks for the fast commit of the changes.
I want to make sure we're going to update the website too.  The really frustrating part for me was spending a couple hours trying to use those directions when it turned out there were such better directions available in the source.

Benjamin McCann updated SHINDIG-1210:
-------------------------------------

    Attachment: BUILD-JAVA.patch

I think BUILD-JAVA was actually the better of the two docs, but I did go ahead and add some info that was only on the web page.  Hopefully we can now point the web links instead to http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/BUILD-JAVA

------------------------------------------

I could probably try to merge the docs.  Do you have a preference for where the authoritative source should live and which one should go away?
