I'm confused by the build process for Liferay -- A readme file would really help <!--emo&<br />Yes, but if you are using the ext environment, you will need to have downloaded and setup the appropriate bundled container.<br />
2. I created appserver.bbonner.properties, release.bbonner.properties and build.bbonner.properties as documented in the instructions.<br /><br />I left the lp.xxx.dir directories the same.<br /><br />OK.<br />
It was not clear to me what the intent of these directories were and where they should be relative to each other--it seems that there are relative path dependencies in the build files that require these to be setup a certain way. Can someone describe this?<br /><br />These dirs are important if you want to use the targets that customise your portal using the ext environment.<br />
3. Is JONAS required to be downloaded if I'm building for Tomcat?<br /><br />No.<br />
4. Is the CVS code setup to use Hypersonic SQL?<br /><br />Yes, but you can easily change it to any DB of your choosing by modifying the container's DB setup in the ext environment.<br />
Here's my"perfect" world for liferay:<br /><br />1. I'd like to have liferay imported as a project (or projects) into eclipse<br />2. I'd like to be able to debug in eclipse (as I do my other web/java projects) using the integrated debugger<br /><br />Both very achievable using container plugins such as Sysdeo.<br />
3. I'd like to be able to develop jsr-168 portlets in eclipse with liferay.<br /><br />Also pretty straightforward, start by importing test.war.<br />
