I didn't change anything from the defaults. That's what we use. I'm on Mac and Thomas on unix I think.

[xwiki-devs] GSoc 2008 help (newbie)
by malaka ekanayake 25 Mar '08

25 Mar '08

Hi all I'm a final year student of University of Moratuwa Sri lanka and totally new to open source development. I was introduced to XWiki by one of my friends (Asiri), and i thought i should give a try at Gsoc 2008. I have experience in Spring / Hibernate / Struts and velocity (i learnt these during my internship). I'm not certain about what exact project i should apply (though i found XEclipse to be very interesting) and would appreciate any help regarding choosing a project. Thank you very much. Malaka Ekanayake.

by saikrishna＠students.iiit.ac.in 24 Mar '08

24 Mar '08

Hi all, Please excuse me if you have received this mail before, there seems to be some problem with my gmail account and I am not sure whether the mail I sent earlier was sent to XWiki devs list or not, so sending it again. please help me. """Support multiple installations of XWiki being indexed on one or multiple XWiki Servers and share the index. It should be possible to share easily the index so that multiple XWiki installations can be shared in one UI.""" ---> I am assuming that one of the several servers, is the main server and has information about other servers like the ip address. -- am I correct ? ---> Can each server maintain it's own index(instead of distributed indexing), but while searching, indexes on multiple servers are used. ---> please provide me some more info regarding this. """Also the search UI should be possible to customize depending on Document types.""" ---> Restricting search to specified document type. If any one has other relevant information, please provide it. -- Sai Krishna.

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Apply XWIKI-2006:Allows to configurate name of database schema
by Thomas Mortagne 24 Mar '08

24 Mar '08

Hi all, I would like the point of view of every ones for the patch provided in http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2006 by Ruslan Shevchenko (configurated_db_schema_06.patch). It allows to force the name of the database in the xwiki.cfg file. Except for some very minor Checkstyle still remaining, the only "problem" for me is than if this feature is enabled the number of hibernates query in non-virtual mode grows to one more by hibernate transaction used to ensure the selected database is the provided one. Note that this is not worst than actual virtual mode which do almost exactly the same thing for the same reason. For that reason and also because it touch one of the deepest part of XWiki platform I want to validate a vote to apply it in the trunk. It also add database names prefix support which is great. Here my +1. -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] about FishEye
by [Ricardo Rodriguez] Your EPEC Network ICT Team 22 Mar '08

22 Mar '08

Hi, Sorry if this is a too basic question... Please, could I download the last version of a given file by using FishEye (http://fisheye2.cenqua.com/browse/xwiki)? It is impressive, at least for me, how this tool keep track of changes, but is it possible to locate the current "final state" of a given file and check it out? I am currently looking for ApplicationResources_en.properties and ApplicationResources_es.properties files. I know they are packed in xwiki-core-1.3.jar or any new xwiki-core-x.x.jar in each snapshot, but I am guessing if it could be check out on a per file basis without waiting to the night build and without downloading the whole war. Thank you so much, Ricardo -- Ricardo Rodríguez Your EPEC Network ICT Team
