[xwiki-devs] [GSOC] IDocumentPartitioner Custome Implimentation for XWIKI
by malaka ekanayake 30 Jun '08

30 Jun '08

Hi Fabio, Now I'm working on the costume implementation of the IDocumentPartitioner which uses the XDOM parser. I have also look at the FastPartitioner implementation in-oder to get understand how the partitioning work. As far as I can understand, to register partitions with the IDocument, requires the offset and the length of each token retured by the partitione. But currently that information is not avalable in the Blocks returend by the parser. WDUT ? Is ther any other way of doing this ? I need help on this I aslo look try to run the org.xwiki.xdomexplorer you gave to me.After mvn compile and run the project as a eclipse plugin it gives a errer sayying Error opening the editor. org.xwiki.xdomexplorer.editors.XWikiEditor.I'm working on Eclipce JEE 3.3.2 version.Should I need to run this in different eclipse package ? Cheers -- Malaka Ekanayake CSE UOM

[xwiki-devs] XWiki Watch - Support for non-RSS?
by Squirrel 29 Jun '08

29 Jun '08

Hi, First time I tried 'XWiki Watch' (standalone JAR). I like the idea very much. Is it planned to support manual added pages too? The use-case would be, if someone finds a specific article, which other team members could maybe use too. So instead adding the whole RSS (if even one is available) you would just add the specific link to the article and comment it, group it, tag and flag it... Cheers, Squirrel PS: Could you maybe add a link to the actual Watch space, too (on the first page of the installation and on the sidebar)? I tried the whole time to click at the 'Watch' menu entry at the top, but this isn't 'XWiki Watch' but the default watch from XWiki, I figured...*g*

[xwiki-devs] question about mysql and xwiki virtual mode
by rssh 29 Jun '08

29 Jun '08

Good day. I test work of xwiki virtual mode with mysql and discovered, that if I follow Administration Guide and create database user xwiki, than switching between wiki-s in virtual mode is failed with exception like: Access denied for user 'xwiki'@'127.0.0.1' to database 'a22ii' When I set user root in hibernate.cfg.xml than all is good. 1. So, this must be noted in Administration Guide. 2. And why I write to list: I discovered that 'grant all on *.* to xwiki(a)127.0.0.1' does not fix situation .. So, this is something wrang with my mysql ? [fresh install from Fedora9 packages] or exists some extra magic to grant access to all databases to xwiki mysql user ? -- Ruslan Shevchenko GradSoft. http://www.gradsoft.ua

[xwiki-devs] [vote] By default, allow registration rights to guest in an empty wiki
by Sergiu Dumitriu 29 Jun '08

29 Jun '08

Hi devs, The current Rights implementation treats the registration as a special case, being the only right that is denied to guests in an empty wiki. I propose that we change this by default to be true, but allow it to be configured in xwiki.cfg (and only there, since guests can edit XWikiPreferences). Anyone against it? -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

[xwiki-devs] New Admin-GUI
by Squirrel 28 Jun '08

28 Jun '08

Hi guys, I know, it's kind of late to give you a general feedback for the new admin interface, nevertheless I'd like to point some things out: * The icons are nice, but way too big (tested on 1280x800, FF3, Opera & Konqueror) * In the 'Rights' section the two tables don't have the same width, though the same content and space is unnecessarily wasted (this is true for most sections) .. * I miss some structure, categories...everything seems now cluttered...I know, underneath not much changed, but compared with the previous surface it's now quite obvious to me. Ie. the 'User' and the 'Group' section. They just make no sense anymore. I guess you could easily integrate the 'Group' section into the 'User' section and call it 'User Administration'. Some clickable filter (titles like 'username' 'groupname' etc.) and a search input-field. And instead editing the group and add a new user to the group, you add the group(s) to the user. If you edit a group (click on the groups name) you will then not adding users but change the rights for the group ('Rights' section)....if you add a group you give it a name and set the groups rights. * I miss a content overview...this interferes somehow with spaces, pages and rights... * The space preferences are (still) puzzling to me, although I don't have a better solution in my sleeves... Hmm...I don't have enough time *right now* to explain in deep what I mean...actually I'm not quite sure about what I mean either...it's just a feeling that there is something not quite right...I don't know. I'm sorry I'm this late with my input... I hope it's not useless and if so, feel free to ignore this post ;-) I'm testing now the functional part of it. Cheers, Squirrel
