Notification Extensions Samples

[Venkata Krishnan <fo...@gmail.com>]

Hi..

I was trying out the samples from a binary distro and could not quite manage
to run the Notification extension samples - there are three of them.  Have
others any success with them.  I guess the readmes for them might need a bit
of re-org for the following: -

- First most of what is mentioned seems to be only for the Windows env.
Other samples cover for unix as well.
- There are some env. varibales that need to be set before running the
samples.  They are all about including the notification extension jars and a
stax jar our of the local maven repo.  It would be good to use the jars in
the distribution itself.
- It seems like a couple of notification samples have to be run together.
Though this is mentioned somewhere in the README it would be good if it was
mentioned in one of the steps for running the sample much like what weSho do
for the ws and rmi samples.
- Finally there is no ant build script

If others share this view of mine, then I can raise a JIRA for this.

Thanks

- Venkat

I've been trying to keep them up to date. I had them working last week, but
today,
when I try to run the binding-notification-producer sample I get the
following:

It is not clear to me whether the TomcatRuntimeModuleActivator is trying to
do
the right thing. And, I suppose it is being called as part of the start of
every module in
the distro; as far as I can tell, the sample or the binding do not need
them.
Thoughts anyone?

Right, I have only been working in a Windows env so far. I would welcome
volunteers
to try the samples in unix, and to complete the READMEs accordingly :-)

Other samples cover for unix as well.

Yes, so far I was working under the assumption that the notification
implementation
and binding were not part of the distro, but since they have been
incorporated, I will
update the READMEs to reflect this. Notice that the trace above does not
assume
the extension jars need to come from the local repo any more.

Yeah, I was hoping the READMEs would be enough, but I'll take a look at the
samples
you mention.

- Finally there is no ant build script


Again, volunteers are welcome to add one :-)

If others share this view of mine, then I can raise a JIRA for this.


Sure, a JIRA would be good, and I can follow up on it with the items above
and, if/when
there are volunteers for the unix and ant pieces, we can try to close it in
a timely fashion.

Thanks


Thank you
