Building database backed session storage

[Nate Klingenstein]

Users everywhere,

Prefaced with IANAD (not a developer), I'm having a tough time getting the .jar file for the database-backed session replication built.  I "borrowed" the work Keith's DBA's did on the Oracle SQL stuff but I got stuck after that.  The documentation seems pretty generic to most environments and I understand the value in that, but whether in Eclipse on a workstation or in a server environment, I can't get the .jar built.

I didn't make it far enough to ask a really specific question and I apologize for a generic "huh?" but I'd like to see many deployers able to adopt this work.

So... huh?  Are there details for getting this built that could be added to the Wiki if not a generic .jar that would work with most deployments, or at least better details on how we should get to that point, or is the work still raw enough that deployers with my skill set should stick to other session storage mechanisms?

Thanks,
Nate.
