Hi Ramesh,
I had gone briefly through the connector development guide; did not seem to
see any direct java/dos command to generate the necessary template classes.
It will be helpful if you can get me the skeleton classes/interfaces, which
will get generated though the Eclipse wizard.
Under the extension directories I looked at the sources for some of these
connector jars:
connector-ldap-6.2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
connector-xml-6.2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
connector-jdbc-6.2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
connector-text-6.2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
Thanks
Sanjay

Sumanth,
Welcome, thanks for your offer to contribute. We sincerely appreciate any
help.
Currently Teiid does not mandate any coding guidelines, however there are
few things we do follow. I try to put something simple put together very
soon on WIKI. Usually we use the default code formatting comes with Eclipse
install. I am thinking in the lines of
http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/JbpmCodingGuidelines
I will post to the dev-list in couple days, you are welcome to contribute.
The digest replying instructions are usually at the beginning of the digest
message. It is no more than selecting the "reply all" and changing the
subject line to the reflect the message you are replying to with "Re:" in
the front. Please make sure that you include only sections of the message
that you are replying to. Since Teiid is low volume list, you can turn off
the digest otherwise.
Now coming to project, if you have any ideas about this tooling project,
please let us know, we can discuss and make them part of the project if we
all agree. I will let Sanjay answer if he needs any assistance with the
work. Teiid has plenty of other tasks if you would like to contribute, both
eclipse and non-eclipse related.
If you only want to do "eclipse" work,
1) we are in urgent need of Teiid integration with Eclipse DTP (data tools
platform). Basically Teiid needs to another source, where somebody can
connect to and issue queries against.
2) We can also use this in Phase 2 of CDK tooling project, where we can
deploy connector to and issue queries aginst.
3)That could be expanded to tooling around the the "Connector Metadata"
feature, where some one could define multiple sources in DTP and integrate
them using Teiid.
We have ton of work on the non-eclipse side too, lot of issues are
mentioned on the JIRA system. Submitting a patches is excellent way to
contribute, take a look if anything interests you.
Let me know what interests you, then we can plan and discuss accordingly.
Thanks again.
Ramesh..

Subject: Teiid Eclipse Plugin
Sanjay / Ramesh,
I have been following the discussion regarding the requirements of Teiid
CDK Plugin for Eclipse. I am interested in taking part in the process. Let
me know what pieces I can start looking into and I can start the same. We
may need to come up with some preliminary standards that everybody should
follow (for example: naming conventions, exception handling to name a few),
so that inconsistencies are avoided.
Ramesh - I know it has been quite a while since I had communicated to you
regarding this. I have been going through the documents and have some idea
on how things work. And I guess I am now better placed to understand the
terms involved. To be honest the pace from my end had been slow, but I
intend to devote more time to this from now onwards.
Also, I had subscribed to the Teiid message digest and hence can any of you
please let me know how to reply to a specific mail in the digest. (I did not
know how to do that and hence had to send this email separately.).
Thanks,
Sumanth.
