SampleApp does not work with Play 1.2.1

[Tony Nelson]

I was trying to evaluate Japid for use in a new Play! based project.

I simply created a new Play project

play new japid

And added this dependency:

require:
    - play
    - play -> japid 0.8.3.1

And then started the SampleApp

cd modules/japid-0.8.3.1/JapidSample

play run

The home page can't find any of the Japid classes

Compilation error (In /app/controllers/Application.java around line 31)
The file /app/controllers/Application.java could not be compiled. Error raised is : JapidController cannot be resolved to a type

Hi,

The JapidSample application does not have the dependencies properly set up. You'll need to create the dependencies.xml with the same content manually in the JapidSample/conf directory before your run it.

[Bing Ran/冉兵]

Oh, one more thing: please run the "play dependencies" command before you run the "play run" command in the JapidSample directory.

[Bing Ran/冉兵]

if you see "WARNING: Your lib/ and modules/ directories and not synced with current dependencies ", ignore it and don't run the dependencies with the --sync option.

Following your instructions fixed the problem.

Thanks
