[Makumba-comm-build] issues with makumba documentation and examples

[Cristian B. <cr...@na...>]

hello

- the example fails to illustrate embedded mak:lists which i think are 
the most powerful feature of makumba

- does anybody have the UML diagrams that Bart and Johannes made for the 
meeting in Stockholm? we should put them somewhere on the website

- http://www.makumba.org/hacking/index.html
links to bugzilla are broken probably due to the new bugzilla

- http://www.makumba.org/hacking/eclipse-howto.html
see below an updated how-to (adds e.g. antlr-eclipse)

-------

ssh cvs.sf.net
type your username and password, you will be logged out.

then you can checkout makumba from eclipse (after you installed 
antlr-eclipse!) using
File/Import/Checkout Project from CVS
repository location
:extssh:joa...@cv...:/cvsroot/makumba
checkout module makumba

then
- use Run/Run.../JUnit/test-mdd, that will test the MDD parser
- configure a database "makumba" in your mysql (the usual user root, no 
password), and run JUnit/test-dbtable . That will test the DB 
functionality which we are just replacing with Hibernate
- use Run/Run.../Java Application/tomcat-mak. before pressing Run, click 
  Arguments, Variables, Edit Variables, double-click catalina_home and 
use Browse to point it to a download (not necessarily install!) of 
tomcat 5.5. Click OK, OK, and Cancel (! otherwise you will paste 
$catalina_home and you don't want that), then Run tomcat
- once tomcat is started, use Run/Run.../Junit/test-formatters. that 
will test the mak:value and mak:input functionality. we should write 
more such tests, or improve the existing ones.
- you can stop tomcat after the formatter tests are done.
