plenty work for basic structure and authoring page: 1.ant build 2.add many fields to model class 3. finish basic logic of authoring init page 4. copy lams tag into authoring page 5. IMS download method.
Implemented some basic Hibernate POJOs and their DAOs, along with an applicationContext.xml file. The tool should now deploy okay and appear in authoring. So you can run a lesson with it but you can't actually do anything as the service doesn't store any data and no jsp pages exist.
Moved the IBaseDAO and BaseDAO classes to their own packages and out of learning design. This interface and class may be used as the basis for any Hibernate DAO in the system - it isn't compulsory but it is a handy way of getting functionality. If we are going to be using it all over the place, having the classes in the learning design package is not a good idea.
