[Building Sakai] Create a site by Sakai API

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi Phuc,

This all looks good. You want:

addedSite.setPublished(true);

to publish the site.

You could take a look at how the webservices do it, they are a pretty  
good example of some clean concise code. Reproduced below:
		
		Site siteEdit = null;
		siteEdit = SiteService.addSite(siteid, type);
		siteEdit.setTitle(title);
		siteEdit.setDescription(description);
		siteEdit.setShortDescription(shortdesc);
		siteEdit.setIconUrl(iconurl);
		siteEdit.setInfoUrl(infourl);
		siteEdit.setJoinable(joinable);
		siteEdit.setJoinerRole(joinerrole);
		siteEdit.setPublished(published);
		siteEdit.setPubView(publicview);
		siteEdit.setSkin(skin);
		siteEdit.setType(type);
		SiteService.save(siteEdit);

cheers,
Steve
