I reworked parts of the tutorials section of our reference documentation. The tutorials are now offered as stand-alone source downloads that can be compiled with a current fleXive distribution. The chapter on the hello-world application also explains how to build this application “from scratch”. It should be possible to complete the application just by copy-and-pasting the source listings and following the instructions.
The previous version focused on explaining the source code itself, but it assumed that you’d only want to compile the example inside the main fleXive source tree (this still works, of course, it’s just not very useful for anybody developing a new application). You may also want to check out the chapter on Writing [fleXive] applications, which also explains how to use Maven for your own projects.
