Welcome to the new members

[Enrico Giurin]

Hi all,
I warmly welcome the new members of this mailing list, so far we have
Alessandro, Michele B. Michele T, Diego, Ricardo.
As Parancoe it's an international open source project, even if most of
the developers are Italian, I would kindly ask you to keep the
discussion in this mailing list in English.

The technical leader of this project is Lucio Benfante so he will
coordinate and organize your contribution to the project.
In the meantime I invite you to have a look at the following resources:

www.parancoe.org
http://code.google.com/p/parancoe/
www.jugevents.org (web application built using parancoe)

The first thing I would like to invite you to do is trying to build
parancoe, that is, create in your desktop the environment to
effectively develop with parancoe.

Here there is a good tutorial (only in Italian) which explain how to
start with parancoe:

http://www.parancoe.org/articles/2007/09/23/parancoe-for-dummies-like-me---prima-parte/

For every doubt please do not hesitate to ask for help using this mailing list.

Best Regards,
Enrico.

Hi,
looking at the tutorial for dummies I was quite able to import and
build Parancoe in Eclipse.

I have a couple technical issues with Maven, maybe someone of you
knows what the problems are.
Firstly, it complains that Eclipse is running on a JRE when a JDK is
required. I actually have the JDK6 installed, I don't know why it sees
it like a JRE.
Secondly, it complains that there's no settings.xml file. That's true.
If I create an empty one, it complains that it's empty. What am I
supposed to do?
I may try to reinstall it.

Anyway, it seems to work, retrieve the dependencies and build
correctly.
Inside the project I see four source folders:
src/main/java containing the packages
com.mycompany.person (3 classes)
com.mycompany.person.blo (2 classes)
com.mycompany.person.controllers (4 classes)
com.mycompany.person.dao (2 classes)
com.mycompany.person.po (2 classes)
src/main/resources containing a few files
src/test/java containing the packages
com.mycompany.person (1 class)
com.mycompany.person.controllers (1 class)
src/test/resources containing a file

Is that correct? I mean, is that all?
The source was http://maven2.parancoe.org/repo as described in the
tutorial.

Thanks and have a nice Sunday.

Sorry ,I don't use Eclipse, so I can't help you with it. Maybe someone else.

I stongly suggest NetBeans (www.netbeans.org).

A minimal settings.xml should contain:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<settings></settings>

That tutorial is not about building Parancoe. It's about creating a new
Web application using the Maven Parancoe Web archetype (an archetype in
Maven is a sort of template for projects).

Be sure to use the most recent version of the archetype, at present the
2.0.3 one.

Kind regards,
Lucio
