[xwiki-devs] surprise change velocity 1.5 => 1.7
by Paul Libbrecht 14 Mar '12

14 Mar '12

Hello fellow developers, I am working on upgrading our core, based on xwiki 1.5.4 to xwiki 3.2. Quite a jump. Among the least jump, velocity seems to have jumped from version 1.5 to version 1.7. Nonetheless, this seems to cause a surprising effect: while macros could redefine the value of parameters they were passed, and that change was honoured after the macro, they cannot anymore. The following script: > #macro(redefine $var) > #set($var="redefined") > #end > > #set($x="original") > > x is $x > > #redefine($x) > > x is $x gives the following output in a new core: > x is original > > x is original > and the following in our old core: > x is original > > x is redefined > This has all sorts of consequences including such macros as the navigation not receiving the result of normalizelink... Did I miss an optional parameter of velocity to revert to the old method? paul

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Move JBossCache based cached implementation to retired repository
by Thomas Mortagne 12 Mar '12

12 Mar '12

Hi devs, I would like to upgrade to JGroups 3 (we use it for clustering and there is lots of (mostly speed) improvements in the 3.x branch). But I have an issue: JBossCache is incompatible with JGroups 3 (even if JGroups should be totally useless in the way we use JBossCache). Here are some other pros removing JBossCache base implementation: * we don't use it ourself anymore * JBossCache is dead (replaced by Infinispan) So WDYT ? Here is my +1 to retire JBossCache based cache implementation. -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Move script macros to rendering
by Thomas Mortagne 12 Mar '12

12 Mar '12

Hi devs, I recently move the classloader module to commons and it was the last platform dependency of the script macro so I would like to move all script macro to rendering project. It's a very nice addition to the rendering project for the people using it outside of XWiki. WDYT ? Here is my +1 -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Move history when moving stuff from repositories of "xwiki" organization
by Thomas Mortagne 09 Mar '12

09 Mar '12

Hi devs, Since I plan to move some stuff from platform to commons I would like to know what you think of the history in this case. Pros including history: * can access easily the whole history of a moved file. But sometimes changing packages etc make too much difference for git to see it's actually the same file so you loose it anyway. Cons including history: * double the history which make tools like ohloh indicate wrong informations * it's a lot easier to move without history WDYT ? Even if it was looking a bit weird to me at first I'm actually +1 to not move the history in this case. Eduard was proposing to include in the first commit of the new repository the id of the last commit containing the files (basically the id of the parent of the commit deleting the files) in the old repository so that it's easier to find it. I'm +1 for this. -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] JSON Velocity Tool
by Marius Dumitru Florea 09 Mar '12

09 Mar '12

Hi devs, Some time ago Jerome Velociter raised a vote [1] for adding a JSON Velocity Tool. The vote passed but the tool wasn't committed. I'd like to do it know (for 4.0M1) with two changes: 1. Use Jackson [2] instead of json-lib [3] because it has a more recent release 2. Add only the toJSON method for now because we can use $escapetool.javascript to accomplish the same result as toValueString Reply quickly if you are against it. Thanks, Marius [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/devs@xwiki.org/msg11395.html [2] http://jackson.codehaus.org/ [3] http://json-lib.sourceforge.net/
