URLs

How can I turn off the "shortcut" URLs where /bin/Space/Page is interpreted as /bin/view/Space/Page? (Specifically, I'm using mod_redirect to clean up the URL architecture and need to assume that anything prefixed /bin that isn't /bin/view needs to be passed through as an action.) - - - Hans Gerwitz http://phobia.com/

PDF generation for UTF-8 environments
by Michael Reinsch 17 Apr '06

17 Apr '06

Hello! The attached patch solves a problem in UTF-8 environments when creating PDFs. It also requires the attached fop.cfg.xml (goes into src/main/resources/). With that patch applied, PDFs can be generated in an UTF-8 environment, i.e. no longer exceptions while doing so. But the generated PDFs might not contain all characters. This depends on the font being used to generate the PDF. To make this work under all circumstances, one would need a font containing the complete UTF-8 character set. Unfortunately such fonts are not freely available. But for instance the DejaVu font (which is based on the free BitStream Vera font) would be an option, though CJK users would need to use another font. To switch between the different fonts, it is currently required to edit the xhtml2fo.xsl (the patch contains a comment which shows how to switch to a Japanese font, at least for normal text). Maybe using several xsl files, depending on the language settings of the page would be an option to select the correct font? -- Michael Reinsch <mreinsch(a)mandriva.com> ------------------------------------------------------------------------

severe scalability issue with adding users
by alg0000＠yahoo.com 31 Mar '06

31 Mar '06

My team is integrating xwiki into a heavily trafficed commercial site (over a million uniques a day). We have hundreds of thousands of registered users. Our current tests indicate that the tie to add a new user is linear with respect to the number of users already added. We went from less than 1/2 second per user to over a second per new user as our test data grew from 3k to 10k users. The bottleneck seems to be a database query that has to iterate over all existing users in order to add an additional user. Any feedback would be appreciated. As far as I can see, we are using standard xwiki functions to add users. Let me know what information you need from me in order to help provide accurate feedback. Thank you, Andy
