Hi everyone, Good news, we've now fixed the search page on http://www.xwiki.org (BTW the fix will be in the final XE 1.2 release). It's now using Lucene to search on all subwikis of xwiki.org Thanks -Vincent

Re: [xwiki-devs] upgrade to gwt 1.4
by sachin mittal 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

I would suggest to have extjs implemented for ajax. Reasons already mentioned below. File size is not an issue as it needs to be loaded only once. I have done some work on albatross skin to replace the default template layout with extjs border layout for my local wiki. One thing you need to take care is that there may be some other js files whose execution might conflict with ext-base.js execution. For my implementation I had to comment out all the other js that were getting loaded. Also another cool thing would be to integration extjs with jquery. This combination can lead to some rich UI. I have not yet tested the gwt web interface with xwiki, but not sure if anyone has combined extjs with gwt, also from the version 2.0 of extjs I don't see any adapter for gwt.

[xwiki-devs] analog of session context accessible from velocity ?
by rssh 14 Jan '08

14 Jan '08

Good day. Yet one question - I can't find way to pass parameters from one screen to another. In JSP this is usually doing thought session-scope variables. Are exists some analog in XWiki ? I.e. let I have page A and receive in one request with parameters. Than I want forward such request (with parameters) to page B. I can't find the way to do this: if in A before redirect I write $context.put("X","Y"), than in B $context.get("X") return nothing. May be I need care about passing some sessionId ? -- Ruslan Shevchenko GradSoft. http://www.gradsoft.ua

[xwiki-devs] idea: use the JDK 1.5 UUID implementation when we need unique id
by Vincent Massol 14 Jan '08

14 Jan '08

Hi, I've heard that there are some places in xwiki where we need unique ids (anyone remembers where?). In any case I've found this JDK 1.5 class which can help us with the implementation: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/UUID.html I'm posting it here for the record. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] short svn question.
by rssh 13 Jan '08

13 Jan '08

1. I see, that xwiki-product-enterprise-manager in svn is not build by default. (and building one in own directory cause to fetch 1.2x snapshots of xwiki parts). Curious, why ? 2. Can be application-manager be installed on top of fresh xwiki-product-enterprise with default pages ? (It is not work for me) -- Ruslan Shevchenko GradSoft. http://www.gradsoft.ua

[xwiki-devs] Customization Question
by Rob Masson 12 Jan '08

12 Jan '08

Hello! We have been customizing our instance of XWiki Enterprise (1.2) very successfully but have hit a bit of a roadblock. We would like to modify the layout of the Comments area, specifically to add a couple of controls we will use for adding a "Rating" mechanism and we can't seem to find where we can access the stylesheet for the template. We have successfully done this to the Search Results page (Xwiki.Results) but cannot seem to determine how to do something similar to the Comments area attached to each article. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated Thanks in Advance! Rob Masson

This is an error and the stack trace will help debug the error. The fact that the test is wrongly written is a different matter IMO. The test must be forgetting to initialize something. But we do need the max amount of info when debugging an ERROR level error. -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] path for configurable name of database.
by rssh 11 Jan '08

11 Jan '08

Good day, xwiki community. I want to discuss path, with allows to set in configuration name of main wiki database schema and prefixes for databases schemes of virtual wiki-s. This allows to use few wiki-based applications on one computer. Proposed path itself is attached. The work of this path is 1. add configuration variables: xwiki.db -- database schema name of main wiki instance. xwiki.virtual.db.prefix -- prefix for database scheme-s of virtual wiki-s. So, questions: a) where I must write documentation for this parameters ? b) can I submit JIRA issue now or exists some other things which i forgott. -- Ruslan Shevchenko GradSoft. http://www.gradsoft.ua
