[xwiki-devs] Help with waging WAR ;)
by Juergen Lorenz Simon 04 Dec '08

04 Dec '08

Hi, I've created an XWiki plugin, which uses a whole lot of frameworks to do it's job, including WebObjects, ProjectWonder and some of our own frameworks. It's running fine in Eclipse. When I package the resulting webapp from the workspace's server area (.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp0/wtpwebapps/xe- debug-web) into a war file, I can deploy the result in a webserver. Now I would like to be able to package the xe-debug-web from the command line or Eclipse into a .war. However: When I invoke mvn clean package (or any other mvn command for that matter) inside the xe-debug-web project directory, i get the following error message: mvn package : [INFO] Scanning for projects... [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] FATAL ERROR [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Error building POM (may not be this project's POM). Project ID: xe-debug-web:xe-debug-web Reason: Parent: null:xwiki-web-standard:war:null of project: xe-debug- web:xe-debug-web has wrong packaging: war.

So my thought was to create a Maven goal in Eclipse from the run configurations. However, the 'war' goal seems to be quite fussy about the layout, and the xe-debug-web project layout does not to be satisfactory: ... [INFO] [war:war] [INFO] Packaging webapp [INFO] Assembling webapp[xe-debug-web] in [/Users/simon/Projects/ Kontrast/MavenWorkspace/xe-debug-web/target/xe-debug-web-1.6.1] [INFO] Processing war project [INFO] Copy webapp webResources[/Users/simon/Projects/Kontrast/ MavenWorkspace/xe-debug-web/target/maven-shared-archive-resources] to[/ Users/simon/Projects/Kontrast/MavenWorkspace/xe-debug-web/target/xe- debug-web-1.6.1] [INFO] Copy webapp webResources[/Users/simon/Projects/Kontrast/ MavenWorkspace/xe-debug-web/target/maven-shared-archive-resources/META- INF] to[/Users/simon/Projects/Kontrast/MavenWorkspace/xe-debug-web/ target/xe-debug-web-1.6.1] [INFO] Copy webapp webResources[/Users/simon/Projects/Kontrast/ MavenWorkspace/xe-debug-web/src/main/webInfResources] to[/Users/simon/ Projects/Kontrast/MavenWorkspace/xe-debug-web/target/xe-debug-web-1.6.1] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: basedir / Users/simon/Projects/Kontrast/MavenWorkspace/xe-debug-web/src/main/ webInfResources does not exist at org.codehaus.plexus.util.DirectoryScanner.scan(DirectoryScanner.java: 550) ... Since both approaches failed, I need some advice on how to package the xe-debug-web into a proper WAR file again. All pointers much appreciated, J.L.Simon

[xwiki-devs] XWiki Translation Tool: looking for volunteers
by Ludovic Dubost 04 Dec '08

04 Dec '08

Hi all, We have setup the new translation tool on a production server and we are now looking for volunteers to give it a test drive and start updating the translations of the XWiki Core. The new tool is at http://l10n.xwiki.org You will need to create an account on this wiki (the xwiki.org does not yet work, but we plan to connect it to xwiki.org using the new Open ID implementation done in the Summer of Code). The first thing that we can start with is working on the empty translations. For example here are the pages to modify the empty translations for a few languages German: http://l10n.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XE/XWikiCoreResources?action=viewempty… French: http://l10n.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XE/XWikiCoreResources?action=viewempty… Spanish: German: http://l10n.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XE/XWikiCoreResources?action=viewempty… Polish: German: http://l10n.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XE/XWikiCoreResources?action=viewempty… You can view the full list at German: http://l10n.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XE/XWikiCoreResources and click on "View Empty" next to your favorite language. Currently there is no locking mecanism, so I hope we won't have conflicts will working on this. The good thing is that of course everything is kept in wiki style so with versioning. Let us know who can test drive the application. Make sure you are putting in real translations since we want to use the result for real ! Once we start getting some updates I'll document the review process so that we can also start doing that. For reviews we will 'elect' reviewers that will have the right to review. If you are volunteer for review, please tell us by responding to this email. Thanks Ludovic -- Ludovic Dubost Blog: http://blog.ludovic.org/ XWiki: http://www.xwiki.com Skype: ldubost GTalk: ldubost

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Postpone XE 1.7 release
by Jean-Vincent Drean 03 Dec '08

03 Dec '08

Hi, I'd like to suggest to postpone the release by a couple of days. The reason is -- as explained in a previous email -- that in its current state the WYSIWYG 2.0 : 1) Is still causing IE6 crashes on key press (Blocker). It has been preventing testing on this browser during the last couple of weeks and last commit from Marius doesn't help (again, IE is a pain). See http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2915 2) Can't be considered as a valid replacement of the WYSIWYG 1.0 since the image and table plugins are deactivated by default (XWIKI-2917 and XWIKI-2916). See pending issues here : http://tinyurl.com/6hsaqg If it's ok for everyone I'd like to define december 5th as the new release date for XE 1.7 ? Here's my +1. Thanks, JV.

[xwiki-devs] Need roadmap for new WYSIWYG UI needed
by Vincent Massol 03 Dec '08

03 Dec '08

Hi there, With XE 1.7 we're going to release some features that don't have the final planned UI (insert link, image, macro, table for example). We're still discussing the final UI designs but I'd like that we get started doing 2 things: * prepare a roadmap for finishing their definition and set milestones so that we don't drag on forever * prepare an implementation roadmap with dates and with whom will be able to implement them Re the implementation roadmap I feel it would be good to (iteratively) release the UIs in 1.7.x releases (1.7.1, 1.7.2, etc) as fast as we can. The reason is that we initially wanted to have them in 1.7 final and we're late since the wysiwyg implementation took longer than planned. Waiting for 1.8 would be too long I think. Ideally IMO it would be good if we could have most of them done before December end. We need to know if that's possible and define a roadmap. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] notifications "start configuration"?
by Paul Libbrecht 03 Dec '08

03 Dec '08

Hello xwikiers, the page at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Notifications is really nice and shows a real nice pearl of XWiki. I did similarly and my notifier seems to run smoothly. I would like to know, however, what is the way to make sure that a notifier (an implementation of XWikiDocChangeNotificationInterface) is running at every restart of our XWiki. I tried to add the fullname of either the velocity (the "starter") or the Groovy pages into that line and restarting but my notifier didn't seem to have been running after that. What is the correct way? It should definitely be documented at the pircbot page. thanks in advance paul

Re: [xwiki-devs] [xwiki-users] [VOTE] XEclipse release
by Paul Libbrecht 02 Dec '08

Fabio, I would be eager to test it, especially with the changing java architectures on the mac nowadays (basically the 64-bit/32-bit switch). As soon as you have a release candidate I'll give it a try. paul Le 26-nov.-08 à 17:23, Fabio Mancinelli a écrit : > Dear all, > > I would like to release XEclipse soon.

[xwiki-devs] WYSIWYG development status
by Jean-Vincent Drean 02 Dec '08

02 Dec '08

Hi, the new WYSIWYG is still under heavy development, here are some estimations of its features completion : * Standard features : 75%. Implemented : bold, italics, underline, strikethrough, subscript, superscript, unordered list, ordered list, titles (h1,h2,etc), indent, outdent, ruler, special chars. Remaining : alignment, verbatim, quote, definition lists, custom parameters like (% style="color:red" %). Some bugs left too. * Link : 90%. Allow internal/external/email link insertion. Missing options. No automated tests. * Image : 40%. Allow image insertion from any document, image uploading and resizing. Still buggy. Missing options. No automated tests. * Table : 50%. Doesn't work with IE. Missing options. No automated tests. * Macro : 0%. * Import: 0%. In its current state the WYSIWYG 2.0 : - can't be considered as a valid replacement of the WYSIWYG 1.0 (image and table plugins deactivated by default), - was causing IE6 crashes after a few seconds of use, this has been fixed by the last commit from Marius a few minutes ago but has been preventing IE6 testing for a couple of weeks. I'm suggesting to postpone XE 1.7 release by a few days, I'll write another email about this. Note that the UI of all those features (buttons, dialog boxes, etc) is not final since the discussion about their ergonomics is still ongoing. See the "Need roadmap for new WYSIWYG UI needed" email. Thanks, JV.
