Re: Re: Sample pages, Eclipse and XMLCEclipse...

Hi Garth,

I suspect the same thing that Diez suspects.  The way to make sure would be 
to save the source files somewhere and see if the resulting source files 
are implementing the NavigationHTML class.

For example, here is what generated Repopulation classes look like....

public interface RepopulationHTML extends 
org.enhydra.barracuda.contrib.dbroggisch.examples.xmlc.NavigationHTML, 
org.enhydra.xml.xmlc.XMLObject, org.enhydra.xml.xmlc.html.HTMLObject


public class RepopulationHTMLImpl extends 
org.enhydra.xml.xmlc.html.HTMLObjectImpl implements RepopulationHTML, 
org.enhydra.barracuda.contrib.dbroggisch.examples.xmlc.NavigationHTML, 
org.enhydra.xml.xmlc.XMLObject, org.enhydra.xml.xmlc.html.HTMLObject


If in your generated java files the former doesn't extend NavigationHTML 
and the latter doesn't implement NavigationHTML, then the XMLC plugin is 
not picking up the properties set in "Repopulation.xmlc".


I saw your follow-up message to this about the classpath and as far as that 
goes, the WAR file structure can have libraries in WEB-INF/lib which are 
picked up automatically and also have plain classes in WEB-INF/classes.  In 
your IDE, you should be putting WEB-INF/classes in your classpath and put 
*.jar in WEB-INF/lib in your classpath.

Once you figure all this out, maybe you can post your solution.  I'm sure 
it would help people out to be able to use an IDE for all this instead of 
just Ant.  Or, you could just invoke Ant via your IDE and everything should 
build like normal, I would think.  Eclipse has pretty good support for Ant, 
as far as I am aware.

One last thing, if you grabbed the pages-sample stuff which I did as a 
small rework of Diez' contrib package a while ago, you might want to grab 
the newer version that I uploaded to my ftp relatively recently (a week or 
two ago).  It has a better build and is up-to-date with, pretty much, the 
latest CVS of Barracuda.
