Problem when creating a Plugin
by Xavier MOGHRABI 14 Feb '06

14 Feb '06

Dear XWiki Dev, I try to create a plugin which should reduce the image size to have a kind of thumbnail feature. To do that I've created a plugin a part of the code is hereunder. To call the plugin I've added in xwiki.cfg the complete name of the class (and also a parameter about the cache size). The plugin uses the cache service. At runtime my plugin is set by this code : Plugin imageplugin = (ImagePlugin) context.getWiki().getPlugin("image", context); But I don't have the cache service working, the attribute imageCache is null. It seems that the init method is never called. Any idea is welcome. Regards -- Xavier MOGHRABI - Consortium ObjectWeb package com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.image; public class ImagePlugin extends XWikiDefaultPlugin implements XWikiPluginInterface { private static String name = "image"; private XWikiCache imageCache; private int capacity = 50; private static Log mLogger = LogFactory.getFactory().getInstance( ImagePlugin.class); public ImagePlugin(String name, String className, XWikiContext context) { super(name, className, context); } /** * Allow to get the plugin name * * @return plugin name */ public String getName() { return name; } public void init(XWikiContext context) { super.init(context); try { String capacityParam = context.getWiki().Param( "xwiki.plugin.image.cache.capacity"); capacity = Integer.parseInt(capacityParam); } catch (NumberFormatException e) { } imageCache = new OSCacheCache(capacity, true, "temp/imageCache"); } public void flushCache() { if (imageCache != null) imageCache.flushAll(); } ... }

license changing and credit management
by jeremi joslin 13 Feb '06

13 Feb '06

Hi, I don't know if you remember it, but a while ago we have decided to switch from GPL to LGPL. Changes in headers have never been done. So I start to do it yesterday. Before I need your opinion on some rules: • You give you credit to XpertNet. If you give to XpertNet your credit, it's simple for XpertNet to manage licensing issues. We can't give the credit to XWiki, because it's not an entity, and I don't think ObjectWeb accept credit. • We can use the javadoc tag @author for putting your name on. Or simply a contributors.txt on the root of the svn, a page on the wiki, on the Jira's task and the SVN (because you commit it). More information about why giving your credit to Xpertnet: http://clirr.sourceforge.net/contributing.html Jérémi -- Blog: http://www.jeremi.info LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/profile?viewProfile=&key=1437724 http://www.xwiki.org skype: jeremi23 -- msn et gtalk : jeremi23(a)gmail.com

[Vote] Project head
by jeremi joslin 12 Feb '06

12 Feb '06

Hi All, It's time to elect the project head. I suggest: * Ludovic Dubost as the project Leader * Jérémi Joslin as the project Manager I know, it's not common to have a leader and a manager, but Ludovic is busy with the business, so he can't manage the project but he is the one who know the best XWiki and his skills are better then mine. I will help him to manage the project. Only committers can vote. You vote with +1, 0 or -1. * +1: Yes * 0: I don't know * -1: No and explain why. Like we don't have rules for voting now, I choose this for the first vote: The vote is over in 72h or when all committers have vote.

[xwiki-dev] Is XWikiAuthServiceImpl.authenticate called on every page view?
by Robin Fernandes 11 Feb '06

11 Feb '06

Hi, Assuming "Always Authenticate on Viewing" is enabled in the wiki preferences, should XWikiAuthServiceImpl.authenticate(user, password, context) actually get called on every page view? Or is some cookie used to prevent this? I ask because this behaviour seems to have changed on my local xwiki installation, and I'm not what I've done to cause the change (it used to get called on every page view, and doesn't any more). Thanks, Robin.

schema limit
by Matthew Conway 07 Feb '06

07 Feb '06

I'm running into an issue with the 200K character limit for xwikidoc.xwd_archive. Normally, a diff is generated, so this column doesn't grow too big. However, if the document is always a single long line, the diff is just that line everytime, and xwd_archive grows very quickly. Any thoughts on how I can fix this aside from just increasing the limit? Matt

Re: [xwiki-users] Re: [xwiki-dev] bounty on XWiki?
by jeremi joslin 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

Hi, There is 2 possibilities about the payement: * first, Someone who propose the bounty is in charge of paying it at the end. * second, the one who propose the bounty pay first the prize for the bounty to a paypal account of XWiki. For me the second one is better, but you have to advance the money. And with the second possibility several people can make a donation to a bounty if they are interested in. some samples of rules : * http://www.os2world.com/bounties/rules.php * http://www.morphzone.org/modules/bounty/ * http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+bounty * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyBounties What do you think about this? I prefer the morphzone way to do it with ubuntu rules.

by Alistair Young 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

I downloaded xwiki-0.9.840-src.tar and got the error: tar: A lone zero block at 98831 I used to get this when building tars from Ant - I don't think it breaks anything but it just looks bad. I take it xwiki isn't tarred up using gnu tar? Alistair
