Hi, Just to let you know I'm going to branch the Lucene plugin. I need that since in the patch I'm writing for ThreadLocal I need to have it depend on core 1.5. This means Trunk will be Lucene plugin 1.3 (depending on core 1.5) while the branch will be 1.2 (depending on core 1.4). Ok with everyone? I'll create that later today. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Standardize on Maven 2.0.9 for our build

by Vincent Massol

Hi, Since Maven 2.0.9 is now released and it works with our build we should standardize on it rather than using a"non-official" 2.1 snapshot version. I'm thus proposing to move the maven version we use for Continuum on Maven 2.0.9 and to change the Building page to remove our snapshot version and change the text to say that to build XWiki you need Maven 2.0.9 or greater. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [ANN] XWiki Community Farm is now online

by Vincent Massol

Hi everyone, A few months ago we had discussed the possibility of offering a free community-managed farm for non-business critical projects. See http://tinyurl.com/69blgy In short the ideas are: 1) No support guarantee. All support done on the xwiki.org user mailing list by the community. 2) No stability guarantee. We would always install the latest Platform/ XE/XEM version on it and it would serve as a stability test for the xwiki development team. Obviously the community will always try to make it as stable as possible but that's not guaranteed. It's also possible that the farm will be down a few days now and then. We'll try to reduce this but no warranties. 3) There will be several members of the community who'll have admin access on the farm. 4) It will be open to anyone. However the target users will be technical people who can support themselves to some extent. We won't control that but it'll be mentioned on the registration page. In any case points 1) and 2) make it obvious that it shouldn't be used for any business-critical wiki. We're now announcing the myxwiki.org community farm at http://myxwiki.org Note that the machine was donated by the XPertNet company (http://xwiki.com ). Thanks XPertNet! :) Right now the following persons are admin on this farm: * ThomasMortagne * Marta * Sergiu * GuillaumeLerouge * amelentev (Artem) * Jerome Velociter * jvdrean (Jean-Vincent) * VincentMassol Please note that all these people are doing this in their free time and thus we're looking for more admins. If you're interested in helping us manage this farm (and we hope there'll be plenty of you interested) then please register a user and let me know and I'll make you admin. Here's what admins should do: * work on improving the community farm content in general * work on improving the way information is presented and navigation * watch the recent changes and undo graffitis where needed * create wikis for people who request them (there's a HTML form to fill) - we'll need to decide if we want to make that self service or not. Right now I suggest that people interested in getting a wiki there send an email to the xwiki users list explaining what they want to do with their new wiki and then one admin creates it for them. * watch out for security holes * suggest ideas to improve the farm What everyone can do: * edit and improve content for the non admins parts of the farm * spread the word, blog about it, etc Thanks -Vincent on behalf of the XWiki community

[xwiki-devs] Re lating classes in xwiki

by Sachin Mittal

Hi, Using xwiki class editor we can create classes and package them as application. Classes can also have an entity relationship among themselves. I have few question on how can we relate classes in xwiki. Let me start by posting a simple example: Say our application has two classes Product and Review. Relationship between them is a product can have multiple reviews. Now I can relate these classes in following way: 1. Create a product document and add the product object to it. All the reviews for that product are also added to that product document as review objects. Thus I have grouped reviews to a product. 2. Create a product document and add the product object to it. For each review for that product created a review document and add review object to that review document and make review document child of product document. Thus I have arranged reviews as children of a product. 3. In the review class add a db list field, which refers to objects of product class. While creating a review object choose the right product name from the list. Thus reviews are associated to a product. Thus you can see that in each of the three ways I have related two classes. Only difference is different ways of storing them. (again presentation still can be same and I am here interested in optimal storage strategy only). So I would like to know which of the above three is the best way of relating classes. Are there any more ways of achieving the relationship I talked initially? I would like to know from people who have been developing complex applications involving relationship between several xwiki classes as what would be the best way of arranging the use case just described.

[xwiki-devs] About the new SkinExtensions plugin

by Jean-Vincent Drean

Hi XWikiers There are open question about the new skinx plugin, I'd like to discuss about the first one : http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/SkinExtensions#HUsage "Should $xwiki.jsx.useFile("filename.js") work for files located on the disk? This allows the same pull process to be used with files located in the skin, without requiring SX documents and objects. I'd say yes. Then, what should the URL look like? /xwiki/bin/jsx/skins/albatross/somestyle.css is OK?" We definitely need this to be able to load some libraries condditionaly, for example usersandgroups.js or lightbox.js. I don't see the need for some special URLs, would it be a problem that useFile() adds the result of a xwiki.getSkinFile() to the header ? Thanks, -- Jean-Vincent Drean

Re: [xwiki-devs] [xwiki-notifications] XWiki doesn't start anymore

I don't know why this happened (it can a lot of reasons) but the way to solve it for now is just to restart the JVM (i.e. the servlet container). Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Reviewing XE 1.4 roadmap vs what we did

by Vincent Massol

Hi, I'd like that we review our objectives for 1.4 vs what we've done: * Bug fixes o Go from 240 in JIRA for Core down to 180 on XE 1.4 release date Right now the bug count is at 227. Even though it's lower than 240 it's still a far cry from the 180 target... * Better performance o Run XE with a profiler and find bottlenecks Not done o Reduce number of database calls Not done o Improved page loading (JV) Not done o Make Stats usable on xwiki.org (ThomasM) Done! * More automated tests o More selenium tests We can consider this done although we always need more. We need to continue adding and even spending some time just adding tests even if we don't have code at all. o Add tests on Tomcat 6.x as part of the CI build Not done o Add tests on Windows and with IE6 and IE7 as part of the CI build Not done Conclusions: ========== * We're not too good. I think this is principally due to me, since I focused on the new rendering component and have delegated XE day to day management/coaching to JV. Thus JV has not been able to work on the performance improvements as planned. We really need to get that going in 1.5 now. * We have 1 more week to fix as many bugs as possible. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Roadmap for XE 1.5

by Vincent Massol

Hi, I've started the page at http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Roadmap but let's discuss it here first. So what are the tasks we want to solve for 1.5. Here's my take: * More bug fixes * Better performance o Run XE with a profiler and find bottlenecks o Reduce number of database calls o Improved page loading * More automated tests o More selenium tests o Add tests on Tomcat 6.x as part of the CI build o Add tests on Windows and with IE6 and IE7 as part of the CI build * Overhaul of the Administration So basically more stability and more usability. In term of dates, I think 2 milestones followed by a RC works pretty well. In total that's about 3 weeks for each milestone and then 1 week for each RC. If we imagine we need 2, then that's 8 weeks, i.e. 2 months, which sounds good to me. WDYT? I'll let JV propose precise dates. Thanks -Vincent

Re: [xwiki-devs] [xwiki-notifications] r9589 - xwiki-platform/xwiki-plugins/trunk/skinx/src/main/java/com/xpn/xwiki/plugin/skinx

by Vincent Massol

How much duplication do you reckon there is between the 2 classes? Might be worth refactoring and have a common ancestor to share code? -Vincent On Apr 30, 2008, at 2:10 AM, sdumitriu (SVN) wrote: > Author: sdumitriu > Date: 2008-04-30 02:10:27 +0200 (Wed, 30 Apr 2008) > New Revision: 9589 > > Modified: > xwiki-platform/xwiki-plugins/trunk/skinx/src/main/java/com/xpn/ > xwiki/plugin/skinx/CssSkinExtensionPlugin.java > xwiki-platform/xwiki-plugins/trunk/skinx/src/main/java/com/xpn/ > xwiki/plugin/skinx/JsSkinExtensionPlugin.java > Log: > XSKINX-2: Author not set when auto-creating the extension xclasses > Fixed. > > > Modified: xwiki-platform/xwiki-plugins/trunk/skinx/src/main/java/com/ > xpn/xwiki/plugin/skinx/CssSkinExtensionPlugin.java > =================================================================== > --- xwiki-platform/xwiki-plugins/trunk/skinx/src/main/java/com/xpn/ > xwiki/plugin/skinx/CssSkinExtensionPlugin.java 2008-04-29 17:20:37 > UTC (rev 9588) > +++ xwiki-platform/xwiki-plugins/trunk/skinx/src/main/java/com/xpn/ > xwiki/plugin/skinx/CssSkinExtensionPlugin.java 2008-04-30 00:10:27 > UTC (rev 9589) > @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ > package com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.skinx; > > +import org.apache.commons.lang.StringUtils; > import org.apache.commons.logging.Log; > import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory; > > @@ -98,9 +99,16 @@ > needsUpdate |= > bclass.addStaticListField("cache", "Caching policy", > "long|short|default|forbid"); > > - String content = doc.getContent(); > - if ((content == null) || (content.equals(""))) { > + if (StringUtils.isBlank(doc.getAuthor())) { > needsUpdate = true; > + doc.setAuthor("XWiki.Admin"); > + } > + if (StringUtils.isBlank(doc.getCreator())) { > + needsUpdate = true; > + doc.setCreator("XWiki.Admin"); > + } > + if (StringUtils.isBlank(doc.getContent())) { > + needsUpdate = true; > doc.setContent("1 XWiki Stylesheet Extension Class"); > } > > > Modified: xwiki-platform/xwiki-plugins/trunk/skinx/src/main/java/com/ > xpn/xwiki/plugin/skinx/JsSkinExtensionPlugin.java > =================================================================== > --- xwiki-platform/xwiki-plugins/trunk/skinx/src/main/java/com/xpn/ > xwiki/plugin/skinx/JsSkinExtensionPlugin.java 2008-04-29 17:20:37 > UTC (rev 9588) > +++ xwiki-platform/xwiki-plugins/trunk/skinx/src/main/java/com/xpn/ > xwiki/plugin/skinx/JsSkinExtensionPlugin.java 2008-04-30 00:10:27 > UTC (rev 9589) > @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ > package com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.skinx; > > +import org.apache.commons.lang.StringUtils; > import org.apache.commons.logging.Log; > import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory; > > @@ -98,9 +99,16 @@ > needsUpdate |= > bclass.addStaticListField("cache", "Caching policy", > "long|short|default|forbid"); > > - String content = doc.getContent(); > - if ((content == null) || (content.equals(""))) { > + if (StringUtils.isBlank(doc.getAuthor())) { > needsUpdate = true; > + doc.setAuthor("XWiki.Admin"); > + } > + if (StringUtils.isBlank(doc.getCreator())) { > + needsUpdate = true; > + doc.setCreator("XWiki.Admin"); > + } > + if (StringUtils.isBlank(doc.getContent())) { > + needsUpdate = true; > doc.setContent("1 XWiki Stylesheet Extension Class"); > } > > > _______________________________________________ > notifications mailing list > notifications(a)xwiki.org > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/notifications

[xwiki-devs] Is there a single source for source code and compiled?

by Jeff Gerbracht

I downloaded 1.3.1 XWiki Enterprise from xwiki.org which doesn't include the source, I then downloaded what I thought was the matching source from the source repository, however, I've missed something somewhere along the lines. xWiki was running fine until I rebuilt the project, now it's whacked. I'm planning on deleting what I have and installing 1.3.2, is there any downloads that include both the compiled and source necessary to run XWiki Enterprise? Cheers, Jeff
