(1) These documents do not exist. But they need to be listed anyway.

(2) The Components Introduction doc does not exist but should include this: the differences between the lightweight approach and the std JBI way:

  • what are the differences, when to use one or the other,
  • how components can be installed in both modes (xml config versus ant tasks / hot deploy)
    Note: that the bridge between the two worlds is the servicemix-lwcontainer.
    One other thing--I linked the Components Introduction to the Component Matrix document for now because it does briefly explain some of this stuff and will be a good base to start working from on the real Components Intro document.
  • No labels

    Lisa, Roadmap is listed twice, once under community and again under support, pick one location (one has a link, one doesn't so wasn't sure which to remove)

  2. Unknown User (lmalgeri)

    They both end up in the same place, so I changed the name to Jira Roadmap and eliminated the one.

  3. Guillaume Nodet

    I think we should make a more clear separation between the lightweight components that are defined in servicemix-components and JBI compliant components.
    So maybe something like
     
    ServiceMix Components
        Lightweight components
            [Component Introduction]
            [Component Helper Classes]
            Service Engines
                ....
            Binding Components
                ....
        JBI Components
            Service Engines
                ....
            Binding Components
                ....

    Also some of the components are not listed in the right category.
    See http://docs.codehaus.org/display/SM/Component+Matrix for a more up-to-date listing.
    BPEL should be renamed to include "PXE" in its name: PXE, BPEL (PXE), PXE (BPEL)

    Ant Tasks should not be put in the Components sections, but in nother one (not sure where).

    We must provide a Guide explaining the differences between the lightweight approach and the std JBI way:
      what are the differences, when to use one or the other,
      how components can be installed in both modes (xml config versus ant tasks / hot deploy)
    Note that the bridge between the two worlds is the servicemix-lwcontainer.

    I have revised the tree according to Guillaume's requests. Since there is no guide explaining the components I have linked the Component Introduction to the Component+Matrix Guillaume pointed me in his comment. That doc is a good basis for the Intro doc until it exists. I am also adding the Intro doc as a milestone in the SM Doc Project PLan. I looked at the matrix and shifted components around accordingly.

    Ant task: I moved it back to Features which doesn't really fit, but seems more of a catchall.

    Fixed BPEL TO PXE BPEL.

    Guillaume, thanks for all your suggestions.
