Consistency helps users focus on the task rather than the user interface. Likewise, a consistent documentation style helps users focus on the information, rather than the formatting.</p> + +<p>A related goal is to design the documentation so that it is easy to maintain, so that it tends to remain internally consistent with the framework itself.</p> + +<h2 id="DocumentationStyleGuide-Doitnow.Doitonce.Doitwell.">Do it now. Do it once. Do it well.</h2> + +<p>Overall, there are three goals for the documentation system.</p> +<ul><li>Say it all</li><li>Say it once</li><li>Say it well</li></ul> + + +<p>First, we want the documentation to be both complete and concise. This is job one! The documentation should also be a quick but practical introduction to the framework, so newcomers can get started as easily as possible. To keep people coming back, the documentation should also be a repository of the tips and tricks we use in our own applications, so that people can find it here instead of asking over and over again on the list. </p> + +<p>Second, the documentation should be easy to maintain. Ideally, we should cover the detail of each topic once, and draw as much detail from the source code and examples as possible (using the <a shape="rect" href="documentation-style-guide.html">snippet macro</a>).</p> + +<p>Third, the documentation should be text-book quality; if not in the first draft, then in the next. Don't hesitate to hack in a new page. Better that we have the page than we don't. (See Job One!) But, as time allows, we should try to make each page the best that it can be. A great many people access the documentation, and it's worth the effort to make the "documentation experience" productive and enjoyable.</p> + +<h2 id="DocumentationStyleGuide-Capitalizationofcommonterms">Capitalization of common terms</h2> + +<ul><li>Java</li><li>Javadoc</li><li>HTML</li><li>XML</li></ul> + + +<h2 id="DocumentationStyleGuide-GeneralPunctuationandGrammar">General Punctuation and Grammar</h2> + +<p>Good online resources for punctuation, grammar, and text style include</p> +<ul><li><a shape="rect" class="external-link" href="http://lilt.ilstu.edu/golson/punctuation/"; rel="nofollow">Punctuation Made Simple</a></li><li><a shape="rect" class="external-link" href="http://www.wwu.edu/depts/journalism/207labmanUL.htm"; rel="nofollow">Associated Press Style Guide Essentials</a></li><li><a shape="rect" class="external-link" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style"; rel="nofollow">Wikipedia Manual of Style</a></li></ul> + + +<p>In print, two excellent (and inexpensive!) resources are</p> +<ul><li><a shape="rect" class="external-link" href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/020530902X/apachesoftwar-20/"; rel="nofollow">The Elements of Style</a></li><li><a shape="rect" class="external-link" href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0465004881/apachesoftwar-20/"; rel="nofollow">Associated Press Stylebook</a></li></ul> + + +<p>Also excellent, but more expensive: </p> +<ul><li><a shape="rect" class="external-link" href="http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/"; rel="nofollow">Chicago Manual of Style</a></li></ul> + + +<h2 id="DocumentationStyleGuide-QuickTips">Quick Tips</h2> + +<ul><li>Use as few words as possible.

Everything you need to develop enterprise-grade applications is in a single download, including a web container, (Tomcat), DBMS (Derby), Data Access Library (Hibernate), Dependency Injection System (Spring), and your choice of web application frameworks, such as Struts 1 and Tapestry. Even the Java runtime is included in the same download. And, since it's Eclipse, we can run it all in place, without tweaking any system registries or such. In fact, a complete, runnable system with a working application can be squeezedonto a 1GB USB drive.</p> + +<p>MyEclipse may be an all-one-download, but we can still install any other Eclipse plugins that we might want to use. And, we can also install other frameworks, like Struts 2.</p> + +<p>The simplest approach is to create a web application project in the usual way. Then, drag and drop the necessary Struts 2 dependencies into the WEB-INF folder that MyEclipse will create. The needed JARs are:</p> + +<ul><li>struts2-core</li><li>xwork2</li><li>freemarker</li><li>ognl</li><li>commons-logging</li></ul> + + +<p>The commons-logging JAR is optional, but it helps. The versions will vary depending on which release of Struts 2 is being used. Just use whatever is provided in the Struts 2 lib distribution. (But not everything that is in the distribution!)</p> + +<p>The one other step is to configure the web.xml to load the Struts filter. MyEclipse will create a starter web.xml.
