[xwiki-users] sources filename, why that redundancy ?
by Arioch 30 Jul '12

30 Jul '12

I am not XWiki developer and hardly ever would be. Even if i have my favorite mysfeatures. Also here are script-making and script-using guys. So i don't think this question would be complete off-topic. === It seems that XWiki was never tested on Windows as none of developers had it. It seems that XWiki GitHub just cannot be cloned to Windows now. And i don't know if can be compiled there (hopefully JVM can overcome it, but who knows) But what i noticed again, is that hugely redundant file naming xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-classloader/xwiki-platfor m-classloader-protocols/xwiki-platform-classloader-protocol-attachmentjar/src/te st/java/org/xwiki/classloader/internal/protocol/attachmentjar/AttachmentURLStrea mHandlerTest.java Why that repeating time and gain, like if you use flat filesystem rather than tree ? It looks like calling an object org.org-xwiki.org-xwiki-classloader.org-xwiki-classloader-internal.org-xwiki-classloader-internal-protocol.org-xwiki-classloader-internal-protocol-attachmentjar.org-xwiki-classloader-internal-protocol-attachmentjar-AttachmentURLStreamHandlerTest Nonsense ? Truly so. Yet on file system level Java developers usually do it, not only XWiki but many teams. Why ? Aren't directories given to suppress such redundancy ? Not only that give overly long unobservable paths, it also disables some programs on Windows. I heard that git has internal 4KB file path length limitations. I wonder what UNIX guys would say about sanity if one day they would try to download from Windows file with name about 16KB long... -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/sources-filename-why-that-redundancy-tp75… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hi, We have a problem with titles with the 4.1.3 release (not sure if it's release specific however, I just spend lot of time in logs because of the migration) : When title contains the character '#' at the end, the title disappears from the page (only the page name is printed). There is error traces when viewing the document and from Lucene : 2012/07/19 14:35:34 [http://localhost:8080/xem/wiki/supporttechnique/get/XWiki/SuggestLucene Service?outputSyntax=plain&query=__INPUT__*&nb=3&input=8192] WARN o.x.d.i.DocumentTitleDisplayer - Failed to interpret title of document [supporttechnique:Archives.ExempleCodeC]. 2012/07/20 10:06:22 [http://localhost:8080/xem/wiki/supporttechnique/get/Archives/ExempleCod eC?xpage=xpart&vm=commentsinline.vm] WARN o.x.d.i.DocumentTitleDisplayer - Failed to interpret title of document [supporttechnique:Archives.ExempleCodeC]. Is it a known bug ? Thank you Nicolas

[xwiki-users] Horizontal menu like xwiki.org
by Eugen Colesnicov 30 Jul '12

30 Jul '12

I want to have in my xwiki horizontal menu looks like xwiki.org home page. I started to search extentions.xwiki.org and found Navigation Menu Wiki Macro (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Navigation+Menu+Wiki+M…) This menu works but looks not enought .. For example (main problem) - when using sub-entries - its not shows as a combo. Also stylesheet is different. As I understand, at xwiki.org home page you are using same macro with some javascript & stylesheet modifications: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWikiOrgCode/MenuMacro It is possible to download somewhere this extended version of Xwiki.org MenuMacro? Or have some policy or licence limitations?. -- Thanks befohand!

Hi All, My username is uniter, I'm interested in creating a Wiki for modifications possible on N54 engined BMWs, E.G. the 335i, 135i, 535i, z4 sDrive35i etc. Most information about the platform is sunken in numerous internet forums and threads; a single venue for finding this information would be extremely helpful. Thanks! -Travis -- Twitter <https://twitter.com/tbiehn> | LinkedIn<http://www.linkedin.com/in/travisbiehn>| GitHub <http://github.com/tbiehn> | TravisBiehn.com<http://www.travisbiehn.com>
