[jboss-user] [JBoss Tools (users)] - Re: Everything You Wanted to Know about Seam, but were afrai

One week on and some success but a lot of failure. Seam looks to me to badly frayed at the edges, it is far from robust or even consistent, giving bizarre errors for minor changes, and I have to say it seems more hype than reality at the moment. A nice idea, just a shame that it doesn't seem to work very reliably. There appear to be a million and one paths by which one could go about getting a simple HelloWorld up and running, only one of which works. The challenge apparently is to find that path. As an alternative to using Eclipse I tried to download RHDS from http://www.redhat.com/developers/rhds/ but get a server error just to rub salt into the wound. None of this is very helpful or reassuring. If the community are to use these technologies it should be straightforward to create a HelloWorld application out of the box. After that it's down to knowledge of the associated technologies (which admittedly I need to gain - but this is proving to be a catch-22) and development ability (which I have).
