[xwiki-users] Issue with the "Import an Office document" functionality
by Chaudier Guillaume 15 Oct '09

15 Oct '09

Hello, I try to import an Office (word 2003 document) with a "Ç" character (ALT 128). The result into the wiki page is: "Ç". The result is the same in "UTF-8" or in "ISO-8859-1". Is this due to a configuration issue or a bug? Thank's in advance for your answer. Best Regards,

[xwiki-users] XWiki book
by Rieken, Joshua 15 Oct '09

Is anyone working on an XWiki book and can tell us about it? :-) I think the current documentation improvement efforts are great, but what we really need is a good book that ties together XWiki capabilities with up-to-date examples. -Joshua-

[xwiki-users] Accessing objects via DocumentAccessBridge
by breeden 14 Oct '09

14 Oct '09

Hi, I'm writing a comoponent that needs to access and modify XWiki objects. I'm using the DocumentAccessBridge interface, but a little puzzled by the interface. It seems like, to inspect the objects of a given class in a given document, I have to do something like: String[] properties = new String {"firstName, lastName"}; int objectNum = 0; boolean moreObjects = true; while (moreObjects) { for (String property : properties) { String value = (String) documentAccessBridge.getProperty(documentName, "Main.MyClass", objectNum, property); if (value == null) { moreObjects = false; break; } // ... } objectNum++; } It also seems like it's impossible to set properties of any object other than the first one of its class in a document, using the one setProperty method. Is this a correct way to access objects (I've been having trouble testing as per my previous post)? Is there another way to modify objects? I did notice that this interface is only intended to be temporary until a redesign exposes the whole model as a component. When is this expected to happen?

[xwiki-users] [Vote] New colors for the XWiki.org websites
by Guillaume Lerouge 14 Oct '09

14 Oct '09

Hi XWikiers, after a long discussion on the dev list we eventually narrowed down the new colors for XWiki.org to 3 options (see http://markmail.org/thread/2b3io6wv4yzr324q for details): - [1] Pastel: http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ColorThemes/XWORKSPACES2/#Attac… - [2] Dark borders: http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ColorThemes/PlainBlue/#Attachme… - [3] Grey borders: http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ColorThemes/XWATCH7/#Attachments Each of these proposals is a set of colors that would be declined on the various subwikis of the XWiki.org farm. Please vote for the one you like best. I'm +1 for [1] Thanks for your feedback, Guillaume -- Guillaume Lerouge Product Manager - XWiki SAS Skype: wikibc Twitter: glerouge http://guillaumelerouge.com/

[xwiki-users] Component with 3rd-party dependency
by breeden 13 Oct '09

13 Oct '09

Hi, I'm writing a component with a dependency on a 3rd-party JAR. I've installed the JAR in my local repository and added the dependency in the component's POM, and everything builds fine. However, when I add the component to my XWiki install (on the same machine) and try to start it up, I get a NoClassDefFound error. What is the standard way to write a component with 3rd-party dependencies? Thanks! ~David -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Component-with-3rd-party-dependency-tp3818195p3818195.… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

by Alexandre Souza 13 Oct '09

Hi, I want to sort the items in a panel by name. I'm using as follows, but the items in the panel are not in alphabetical order. How can I do this with the same code below? #set($web = $doc.web) #panelheader('Name') #foreach($subdoc in $xwiki.getSpaceDocsName("$doc.web")) #if($subdoc!='WebPreferences' && $subdoc!='WebHome') - [${doc.web}.${subdoc}] #end #end #panelfooter() Thanks, Alexandre Souza

[xwiki-users] Installing components
by breeden 13 Oct '09

13 Oct '09

Hi, I'm new to XWiki (and Maven, for that matter) and would like to write a component. I've gone through the Writing XWiki Components tutorial and the Building XWiki from sources page and also found this helpful post: http://n2.nabble.com/Components-in-XWiki-td2621693.html#a2621693. I generated the sample org.xwiki.component.HelloWorld component from the archetype in the tutorial, compiled it using the Maven Eclipse plugin, then dropped the jar in my WEB-INF\lib. But when I try to load the component with the sample script: {{groovy}} def greeter = com.xpn.xwiki.web.Utils.getComponent(org.xwiki.component.HelloWorld.class); {{/groovy}} I get exceptions saying "Failed to load component [org.xwiki.component.HelloWorld] for hint [default]" and "Can't find descriptor for the component [role = [org.xwiki.component.HelloWorld] hint = [default]]" I've also tried adding the @ComponentRole and @Component annotations (with no hints) to HelloWorld.java and DefaultHelloWorld.java which weren't there before, and also adding org.xwiki.component.HelloWorld to the plugins in xwiki.cfg, but this doesn't seem to change anything. What am I missing to successfully load the component?

[xwiki-users] Migrating from xwiki/1.0 -> xwiki/2.0
by 399953B65D4D＠messagebeamer.de 13 Oct '09

13 Oct '09

Hi, I've got lots and lots of pages created in xwiki/1.0 syntax. Now we decided to migrate to V2.0. Furthermore it's noticeable that we use XMLRPC to upload pages to our wiki. Migration lead to rendering problems in the new version since it expects the pages to be in xwiki/2.0 format by default. I changed the default to xwiki/1.0, cleared the wiki and did another upload and it worked as expected. However this isn't the approach we would like to use in production. To avoid migrating hundreds of pages (and lots of code that builds pages) to 2.0 syntax but to keep the default value xwiki/2.0 we're somehow stuck. A possible and reasonable compromise could be to set the syntax of a page during creation time, meaning that legacy pages will be created as 1.0 others maybe as 2.0, or (to start dreaming) in a way of autodetecting the page's syntax. To make it short: Is there a way we could easily upload our 1.0 pages to a 2.0 wiki without changing the default value? Otherwise we would have to spend several days in migrating our code, which costs us without giving us any additional functionality. Thank you Mike
