运行seam 的example下面的例子.

需要软件：
ant1.7
jboss-4.2.3.GA
jdk5.0 
jboss seam:jboss-seam-2.0.3.CR1

在运行实例的过程中，无非是完成 项目的部署以及 数据库的生成

1：在E:\jboss-seam-2.0.3.CR1 (seam 解压后的路径) 下面找build.properties ，在最末一行添加一行：jboss.home=E:\\jboss-4.2.3.GA ,注意在windows下面是\\

2：启动jboss

3：部署booking这个例子，首先用cmd进入E:\jboss-seam-2.0.3.CR1\examples\booking  这个路径下面，直接ant deploy 结束后console会有提示，然后去jboss 的E:\jboss-4.2.3.GA\server\default\deploy 目录下面看看是否已经部署成功，如果部署成功，会有jboss-seam-booking.ear，jboss-seam-booking-ds.xml 这2个文件生成

4：修改jboss-seam-booking-ds.xml


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE datasources
    PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD JBOSS JCA Config 1.5//EN"
    "http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss-ds_1_5.dtd">

<datasources>
    <local-tx-datasource>
        <jndi-name>bookingDatasource</jndi-name>
        <connection-url>jdbc:hsqldb:yourdb</connection-url>
        <driver-class>org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver</driver-class>
        <user-name>sa</user-name>
        <password></password>
    </local-tx-datasource>
</datasources>

修改完后你可以去你的hsqldb下面去找生成的数据，jboss自己带一个tool 可以查看数据，这个tool是个awt程序，在jboss console 里面--》

jboss
database=localDB,service=Hypersonic
--》

void startDatabaseManager()
MBean Operation.



点击invoke就可以启动这个tool， file --》connect -->URL 更改为jdbc:hsqldb:yourdb 就可以查看到delopoy后自动建的表，以及初始化数据！


运行http://localhost:8080/seam-booking/
就可以跑这个example了

最后总结一下，如果把seam所有的example搞清楚，你就基本搞清楚seam 的几乎所有内容，因为example牵扯了几乎所有seam的feature：

推荐几本seam 的好书：
seam_reference2.03.pdf 这是seam自带的一个文档，我认为是个很好的文档，redsaga里面有国内的jboss的爱好者翻译的文档，是Seam_2.0_Reference_zh_CN.pdf
Seam_2.0_Reference_zh_CN.pdf
