Yes I will make servlte working. And I have been using SVN in my office also. Let me go through the code and undestand the flow.

  Sougata,

I'm glad you got things working. As for changing the
server name, you don't need to do that. Just get rid
of the AgileWiki.properties file.

A back button would be real nice, but perhaps
difficult right now. The back button I mentoned
eariler was only for the mini-html browser component
that I'm using in Swing to display html. Lets start
with a few small things to help you get oriented to
the overall architecture--more complex projects will
involve changes across multiple locations.

The text boxes are big. Its the same text box used for
virtually all text fields. Perhaps the application
logic could give some hints as to the size? These
hints could then be used by both the swing client and
the servlet.

Perhaps the next step should be getting the servlet
running. Shouldn't be too hard if you're familiar with
NetBeans, as it includes an embeded TomCat server. It
will be nice to be testing changes with both clients.

How's it going with subversion? That's going to get
important quickly. For example, last night I just
added a ch command for changing a topic's document.
But it will not be available for download for almost a
week.

Docs? Docs? You want docs? Well, there's the javadocs.
But that is a bit much, mm? I'll admidt that there's
not a lot of code in AwSwingClient nor in AwServlet.
You can probably figure them out yourself. But its the
back end that's interesting, yes?

But to be effective on the back end, it will be very
helpful if you understand the front end. And the
interface.

Here's my proposal. Lets start with AwCommon. First,
there is the org.agilewiki.client package. This
contains the ProxyWrapper class, which is used to
interface with the server. Put in some print
statements there and you can see the XML strings being
passed between client and server. They are quite
readable and will help with both understanding the
clients (and what's involved in various changes) and
will help also in understanding what the application
logic will need to generate to produce a display.

A related package in org.agilewiki.events. This is
also found in AwCommon. The Event class is a
simplified DOM element (to use XML terminology).
EventComposor is used to construct a tree of Events.
And EventParser is used to convert an XML string into
a tree of Events. A little familiarity with these
classes will go a long way in helping to understand
how clients and applications interact. These classes
are also quite simple (though that may be a relative
term).

I'm more than happy to go through the various packages
and classes and give you a good overview. It shouldn't
take too long. All I ask is that you spend some time
looking at the code, keep asking questions and make
some contributions as we go along. That will speed
things up for you as well.

But I think your priority right now should be getting
AwServlet and subversion running. Yes?

Bill
