MathTran is, by far, much better performing. Moreover, the infrastructure used has proven to be able to solve the baseline stuffs, for this, one needs the pictures to be delivered from the same server so that the javascript reads the PNG headers(!). Note that the option of TeX compilation that MathTran needs seems shipped for everyone although J Fine said it was not.

[xwiki-devs] Contributing to dutch translation
by Henk Schouten 13 Aug '09

13 Aug '09

Hello, I have a few questions about how to contribute to the dutch application_resource file. Yesterday I have added some translations to the dutch translation of the XE resources at the I10n.wiki.org site. Is there any documentation about this site? I am unsure about what some functions do and the effects they may have on others. For instance the link 'Import/reimport default language file', Admin actions like 'Import' and 'Prepare'. Also I noticed that when I get the dutch translation as a application resource file, it only has the resources filled in if a dutch translation exists. This seems logical, but as long as not all strings have a dutch translation, my xwiki contains lots of empty strings. Is there a way to build a resource file with dutch translations where available, and the default english strings when not? Another thing that is not clear to me is the functionality around reviewing and validation. If I find a translation that is incorrect of I thing there is a better one, can I just change it, or should I somehow make a review request to somebody authorized to accept or reject the change? Is there any way to know who is contributing to the same translation in order to achieve some common ideas about how to translate xwiki terms? Thanks, Henk -- == Henk F.

[xwiki-devs] Failed the start Generic Installer XWiki as of Today

[xwiki-devs] Problems accessing DocumentAccessBridge from the XWiki implementation for Shindig PersonService
by Anamaria Stoica 12 Aug '09

12 Aug '09

Hi, In order to integrate Shindig with the XWiki datastore, 4 interfaces have to be implemented: PersonService, AppDataService, ActivityService and MessagesService (javadocs here [0]). To this end, I have created the xwiki-social-opensocial module [1]. While implementing PersonService (PersonServiceXW - [2]), I have encountered the following problem: As I needed to access the datastore, I also made PersonServiceXW a XWiki Component in order to gain access to the DocumentAccessBridge Component. BUT, here is the problem, the DocumentAccessBridge never gets initialized and at runtime is null. The reason this might happen, as Sergiu suggested, is that Shindig uses Guice to bind the services implementations in its code, thus the PersonServiceXW component never gets to be registered with XWiki's Component Manager. My question is how do I get data in and out XWiki's datastore from the PersonService implementation, if I cannot use the DocumentAccessBridge this way? Can it be registered to the Component Manager somehow, or is there a completely different way this could be achieved? I will continue with some integration details (about the patch on xwiki-web-standard and the OpenSocial XWiki Application). At the end I included some instructions on how to build and test them. ***xwiki-web-standard patch (apply on xwiki-platform-web), consisting of: - in standard/src/main/webapps/templates: * added 3 .vm files which handles getting/adding/deleting friends: addfriend.vm, getuserfriends.vm, deletefriend.vm - in standard/src/main/webapps/resources/xwiki/opensocial: * added javascript and css files necessary for the Shindig container - in standard/src/main/webapps/WEB-INF: * modified web.xml to include all shindig servlet mappings and necessary Guice modules - in standard/src/main/webapps/WEB-INF/classes: * added container/default/container.js and shindig.properties - default Shindig container configurations. I put them in the classpath as they required modifications from the original files - in standard: * modified pom.xml, to include as a dependency xwiki-social-opensocial module ***Open Social XWiki Application, consisting of: - OpenSocial.GadgetContainerClass - the simplest OpenSocial Gadget container; has a single url property (the url of the gadget); in view mode it displays/renders it - OpenSocial.GadgetContainerClassSheet - OpenSocial.GadgetContainerClassTemplate - OpenSocial.HelloWorld - hello world Gadget (only displays a String) - NO OpenSocial features - works - OpenSocial.LabpixiesTodo - Gadget with NO OpenSocial features 1 - works - OpenSocial.Horoscope - Gadget with NO OpenSocial features 2 - works - OpenSocial.ListFriends - SHOULD list the friends of the currently logged in user. The friends are retrieved using the XWiki implementation of the Shindig's PersonService, which is located in the xwiki-social-opensocial module (PersonServiceXW). The service TRIES to use DocumentAccessBridge component in order to retrieve the necessary data from the XWiki datastore. - OpenSocial.TestingGadgetsSource - used to attach gadgets XML files to the page. Their URLs can be used for GadgetContainerClass objects (e.g. ListFriends gadget) - Panels.My Friends - panel, displays the friends of the currently logged in user - Panels.Navigation - XWiki.FriendClass - A friend; objects of this type can be attached to user profiles; has as a single property friendName, which contains the name of the friend - XWiki.FriendClassSheet - XWiki.FriendClassTemplate - XWiki.XWikiUserSheet - to add the list of friends to profile - XWiki.MyResources - XWiki.XWikiPreferences Instructions for testing (one possible way at least): 1. Patch xwiki-platform-web (changes are only in xwiki-web-standard), with the patch from JIRA - [3] 2. Build xwiki-web-standard 3. Build xwiki-enterprise in offline mode (-o), so it will use xwiki-web-standard from the local repository build at step 2 4. Run XWiki Enterprise. I always use xwiki-enterprise-jetty-hsqldb-2.0-SNAPSHOT from the generated distributions 5. Import opensocial XAR - [4] What to look for while testing (working stuff): - Gadgets: - see all/add new gadgets http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/OpenSocial/GadgetContainerClass - http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/OpenSocial/HelloWorld - http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/OpenSocial/LabpixiesTodo - http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/OpenSocial/Horoscope - http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/OpenSocial/ListFriends (social features) --> as specified before, not working - While you're here, you could also: - Log in as Alice (password 'alice') - Go to profile page and edit friends list; You should have 2 friends: Jane and Bob (they have as passwords 'jane', and 'bob') - See My Friends Panel, with the friends of the current logged in user displayed [0] - http://incubator.apache.org/shindig/shindig-1.1.x/apidocs/org/apache/shindi… [1] - https://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/sandbox/gsoc/opensocial/xwiki-social-op… [2] - https://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/sandbox/gsoc/opensocial/xwiki-social-op… [3] - http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XSANDBOX-36?focusedCommentId=43674&page=c… [4] - http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XSANDBOX-64?focusedCommentId=43675&page=c… Other helpful links: - Guice module configuration for my service implementations https://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/sandbox/gsoc/opensocial/xwiki-social-op… - Exemple of PersonService being injected by Guice in Shindig's code http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/java/social-api/src… Thanks, Anamaria
