Summary: Improved Documentation
Initial Comment:
Feature Request received from Charles Lin:
The DrJava documentation seems to be rather minimal.
Is there any initiative set to extending the
documentation.
In particular, I think it's missing the following:
-- a list of editor commands
-- a description of how to handle "projects" (how
to
manage different projects)
-- showing the development of a very simple Java
program
* initially, Hello World
* then something that requires two or more
files, using
interfaces
* a more extensive discussion of what javadoc is
and how
to use it
-- what features are missing (if you use Visual
C++ or
some other IDE)
Having an example and showing how students should
develop code should, I would think, be a high priority.
The documentation I found with DrJava is about 14
pages, and is about the minimum to do anything, but I
would think something closer to 40-50 pages would be
better, with several "code along with us" chapters to
get someone up to speed.
