Thanks!

It's an alternative API for eXist, for use in embedded configurations
with Java 5 and higher only.  There's no separate docs, but the Javadocs
are extensive, including a package-level introduction:

http://exist.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/exist/trunk/eXist/extensions/fluent/src/org/exist/fluent/package.html?view=markup

I created this API for my own needs a while ago and never got around to
adding information about it to the web site.  I have no idea if anybody
besides me is using it, but I'd be happy to provide support if
somebody's interested.

Well, it's never too late. I should at least add a few links to the
javadocs and the test cases (which are good usage examples) for the 1.3
release. I think the API is a great alternative if you know you only
want to use eXist embedded.

Hi all,

While digging through extensions/build.properties I noticed the
following extension is enabled by default:

#Fluent API for eXist
include.feature.fluent = true

I searched through the list and found some helpful info (see below).

My question is why this is enabled by default?  Do any other default
function modules or functionality rely upon it being on?  If I disable
it, will anything break?

Thanks,
Joe

Setting this to false will not have any negative effects. eXist has no
dependencies on the fluent jar.

I just noticed that even though I've set the include.feature.fluent to false, the fluent.jar is still created during a build.  Is that supposed to happen?
