Aaron Pestel commented on JBIDE-4191:
-------------------------------------
I think you are completely correct. I definitely understand your pain about it being a
100% manual process because I've done that process in a couple cases to find options
that were not documented. The only thing I would say to that is that if the tooling team
does it once, it will save many users from having to go through the same process many
times. I've created some Jiras on the ESB team to document some of these options, but
that's going to be some time before the documentation is updated and still if the
options are not in the tooling, I think we'll have users stumbling. Maybe the tooling
team can create blocking Jiras on all the underlying projects such that the underlying
projects have to completely describe possible configuration options before going forward,
which could then be used by the tooling developers.
Maybe the wizards could be setup to have some generic aspects where there is some property
or XML file in the plugin that lists the options for a given screen. In that case, it
might be more easy to add additional options when we find them - basically add entries to
an XML file that will change the options available in the wizard rather than having to
change GUI code in the wizard.
I'm not sure I know the right answer, but I know that I run across a fair number of
users that think our ESB doesn't support certain things or think they have to custom
code stuff because many of our options do not exist in the tooling and are also not well
documented. The more users we get, the more I think this is going to be an issue for us.
