Hi Jeff,
Thanks for your explanation. It means that the starter kit is just a portal for entering queries and send queries to GSA or simulator, right?
Actually, no, I'd think of it the other way around. The starter kit includes an implementation of a OneBox module, which is ultimately a provider of OneBox results. In a sense the SDK simulator, like the GSA, is a portal for entering queries that get sent to a OneBox module.
BTW, when the querie string is sent to the GSA or simulator through HTTP GET, how does the kit be configured to the GSA's URL?
It isn't, the OneBox module receives queries from the GSA, it does not send them.
Probably, I will go for SDK approach first becasue I am still doing research on GSA solution now.
It is good that you have added an issue to describe the use of onebox.xml when the GSA is not available. Just want to ask when this readme is available.
It sounds like you've already come across it, but the readme is here: http://onebox-servlet-starter-kit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/readme.html

Hi Benson -
The onebox.xml file is the file that defines configuration parameters for your OneBox module as well as defining the user interface. So technically it isn't "installed" into the starter kit. It should be installed into either a Google Search Appliance or (for development purposes) a OneBox simulator such as that available through the SDK found here: http://code.google.com/enterprise/download/downloadsdk.html Which of these paths would you be going down?
I have added an issue regarding making the readme more clear about the use of onebox.xml when a Google Search Appliance is not available.
