Re: [trinidad] release? I need help...

2008-05-05 Thread Cristi Toth
Hey guys...

There is an issue still opened reagarding TRINIDAD-799
I resolved it, but the guys here didn't agree with the api and also
changed the requirements.

There was a long discussion about this and it seemed it reached an agreement
about the api,
but I need some code for determining the agent minor version.
Blake said there is something like this in Rich Client already and that you
could donate the regex used for that.
But since then he didn't give any sign of the code and I had no time to bug
him with that.

When do you plan to freeze and prepare the release?
It would be a nice feature to have in this new release.

cheers

   Does anybody KNOW how the browsers express their  version exactly?
  Because TrinidadAgent currently only has majorVersion and agentVersion
  (the latter being an unparsed string).
  I will have to parse that agentVersion to also get out the minor
  version.
  Does anybody know why this wasn't done initially? (any reason like too
  different between the browsers?)
 
   I can't remember why I wrote the code the way I did 12 years ago, but
  assuming that I was lazy and didn't think that it probably mattered that
  much at the time is probably a good bet.

 I assume you can't donate prematurely those regex, right?

 I'm sure we can.

 Matthias, can you give them to Christi.  They are in AdfAgent.getAgent().

Matthias is planning a release and it would be nice to have this feature the

 Christi,

 So, is the implementation using the Media Query done and all we are
 waiting for is the regex?  Have you tested how this implementation works
 with the CSS caching.  Jeanne Waldman and I looked at the code, and it looks
 like it might be fine, but its one of those things where it would be best to
 step through the code to make sure.  I would expect that one upshot of the
 easiest possible implementation is that we would end up caching a version of
 the CSS for every possible combination of agent version and agent that we
 see (as opposed to one per major agent version as we do now).

 -- Blake Sullivan


Sorry, no changes implemented yet,
but I plan to go hard on it asap and I don't expect to take me too much
time,
so it would be nice to have those regex at hand when I start working on it.

Yep easiest would be to just cache one CSS file per agent +full version.
I assume that having one cached CSS file per agent version wouldn't be much
of a problem on a server.
Otherwise we would have to have version intervals, which doesn't seem
necessary to me.





 Blake said there is something like this in Rich Client already and that

 as
 5.0.*, etc.
  
Regarding the use of floating points to represent
 versions...  I was
wondering whether we should avoid this since it
 would prevents us from
supporting major.minor.reallyminor version
 strings.  I don't know
that we will ever need to go further than
 major.minor, though the
Gecko versions use the third digit, so perhaps we
 should pick a
solution that doesn't preclude us from supporting
 this?

 Hi Blake,

 I wanted to be backwards compatible with what the XSS offered.
 So I assumed that we's want just a list (not necessarily an interval)
 And I picked the easiest to parse format.

 But it's a good idea to follow a (possible) future standard.

 I agree. While still only a candidate recommendation, the goal of the
 Trinidad CSS syntax has always been to be forward looking (thus the use of
 CSS3-style namespaces).  As the media query syntax is by far the most likely
 syntax to be specified, we should go with that syntax over one  of our own
 design.  That both Opera and WebKit have bothered to implement the
 specification is also a good sign.

 I had a quick look over it's syntax, but not enough.
 Isn't there a way to have a list of numbers?
 smth like : @agent ie (version: 5 7)

 I didn't see one, but I don't think that you really want a list here
 anyway.  Don't you really want all versions of IE = 5 and  8?


Let's say that  any list could be defined  like several  intervals, but it
would have been more flexible.


 I think my proposal for abusing a definition of max-version is weak (the
 specification discussion is pretty clear the min- prefix means = and the
 max- prefix means =).  So I think that a more explicit feature suffix
 would be better.  For example:

 @agent ie and (min-version:5) and (max-version-less-than:8), gecko, safari


max...less-than sounds a little bit redundant
maybe something like (version-lt:8) , in general 'version-' followed by an
EL comparison operator (eq, ne, lt, le, gt, ge)?
what do you say ?



 @Andrew
 Currently (and in the XSS format) version is compared with
 TrinidadAgent.getAgentMajorVersion()
 it also has a getAgentVersion() method that returns the full unparsed
 string.
 I don't know what it means, but I assume it's very browser dependent.

 Determining a floating point browser version isn't a technical problem and
 should be supported.  The Gecko engine is an example of an engine that adds
 CSS features in point releases 1.8 - 1.9 for example.

At least what I could do for now is to support Double instead of Integer
but what if some agents have versions like dates or text?
I'm not aware of how most of the browsers define their version
and I wouldn't want to mess up TrinidadAgent right now, seeing that nobody
asked for this feature until now.
My goal was only to add the feature that was supported in the XSS.
Does anyone know more details about agent's versions in general?


 -- Blake Sullivan

 But do you see a use-case  when you would need different css for minor
 versions?
 Like a difference between IE 5.0 and 5.5 ?

 It would be nice to get to a final conclusion,
 so I can update this solution before the next release.

Re: [Trinidad] added browser version support in skinning TRINIDAD-799

2008-04-17 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi guys,

You're right, I should have discussed the format before committing it.
I started fixing the issue using the format that was specified there...
(there weren't to many comments on that issue btw...)
During I was fixing it, I noticed that XSS suppported multiple versions,
so I adapted what was suggested on the issue to support that too.

Anyway, lets get this subject out in a new thread
and stick here to discussing the format.

Guys, those of you that suggested some general guidelines, they all sound
good,
but please try to think of some concrete format that comply with those
guidelines.

If we decide a final format and implement it until its get released, then no
big harm done.
So please be constructive ;)

Thanks for any feedback!

 I'm proposing that the version feature reflect the best floating point

 be the floating point number 5.5

Because TrinidadAgent currently only has majorVersion and agentVersion (the

I will have to parse that agentVersion to also get out the minor version.
Does anybody know why this wasn't done initially? (any reason like too

 The current skinning functionality does not allow a skinning developer to

 to tell the difference between IE and firefox, but not between IE 6 and 7
 Possible implementations:
 1) @agent ie6 { ... }

 A more general and more powerful approach would be to allow developers to use 
 a regex on the browser version:
 @agent match /MSIE [67]/

 Under the covers Trinidad still uses the legacy XSS style definition

 port all remaining XSS files over to CSS skins files.
 Note that before we do that, there are a few features that need to be added

 TRINIDAD-1041 Support locale-specific styles
 TRINIDAD-1042 Support (browser) version-specific styles
 We may also need to add support for the XSS includeProperty mechanism.

Re: [Trinidad] private / protected final methods in renderers

Hi guys,

Dividing this thread is the best thing.
But I think we either reached a conclusion or we should start a vote about
final/private methods
*
We can change current final/private renderer methods to not final /
protected ones,
only when needed, on specific use cases !!!*

If somebody still disagrees with the previous conclusion, the we should
start a vote.
If not, we should take this as a fact from now on.

After we reach a conclusion on the other thread (sub-renderers),
we should have a wiki page or a documentation page on extending Trinidad

So I agree with this approach.

But I don't want to get the same negative feedback with the same arguments

Re: [Trinidad] private / protected final methods in renderers

2008-04-13 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi,

Let me add some things to what I already stated here.

There are 2 important reason for overriding renderers, that nobody mentioned
here.
1) Not all users needs are general enough to be comitted into Trinidad.
I myself encountered some very custom features required by some customers,
that I simply said, there's no way I'll commit this in Trinidad.
2) Custom components
When developers build some custom components,
they usually extend the existing ones and most of the cases extend also the
renderers.
That's code reusability and flexibility, right?

So for these types of cases, you have to support in some way the renderer
overriding.

Another reason for not complaining to much about renderer backward
compatibility
is that companies tend not to upgrade dependencies any more, when they have
a relatively stable product.
Not to mention that if the user duplicates the whole renderer, he'll have
even more problems when upgrading.

Thanks Andrew for trying to organize this thread.

I totally support :

3) introduce some configurable way to override default behavior for
rendering certain areas of components.

The best way is having some smaller renderers that are delegated to render
parts of components.
As  Andrew suggested, faces-config seems the perfect way to support
overriding those 'sub-renderers'.

4) removing some final modifiers after discussion and make extending
Trinidad renderers accepted, aka not tabu
5) promoting private members to protected or public after discussion
and make extending Trinidad renderers accepted, aka not tabu

For these 2 points, I really want to make myself clear.
I have NOT even thought of promoting ALL private members to protected.
Of course only if really helpful for overriding.

And as Gabrielle stated, we never made promises of renderer backwards
compatibility.

Regards,
--

 Generally I really do agree with Simon that a simple, serious redesign of

 Also, I really think once you put restrictions on your renderers you run

 reorganize in an unexpected way. I'm fine with making it easier to subclass
 renderers for those that want to take the risk, but I'm -1 on any scheme
 that restricts our ability to make changes when the need arises.

 backwards compatibility.

  2) somehow move some of the burden of parts of renderers out of
  trinidad-impl and into trinidad-api
 
 
 Maybe I've misunderstood, but this sounds like it's basically the same as
 1 but for pieces of a renderer, -1.

  3) introduce some configurable way to override default behavior for
  rendering certain areas of components.
 
 
 That would be fine, as long as there's not a perf issue, and there's an
 understanding that things may break at the next release - hopefully rare,
 but possible.

  4) removing some final modifiers after discussion and make extending
  Trinidad renderers accepted, aka not tabu
 
 
 I think removing final modifiers AFTER discussion is fine, and I think if
 people want to risk extending renderers then fine, but we make no promises
 they will not break at the next release. Same for 5 below.

 Thanks,

 Gab

  5) promoting private members to protected or public after discussion
  and make extending Trinidad renderers accepted, aka not tabu
 
  Christi, could you please share more of your needs and give further
  legitimate reasons why this is needed?
 
  If you are not a member of MyFaces, Committer or PMC member please
  refrain from further reply to this thread as your feedback has already
  been noted.
 
  Thank you,

Re: [Trinidad] private / protected final methods in renderers

2008-04-11 Thread cristi . toth
I like very much Andrew's idea of having more smaller renderers
and being able to override them the standard way (via faces-config.xml)

Also maybe some of you understood me wrong.
I didn't mean that all/most of the renderer methods should be protected.

But there are cases where it's needed.
Lets take for example some not so trivial scripts that are generated
in a private method,
which is called from a larger protected method.
If somebody wants to override the protected method,
it has to duplicate the script rendering method because he can't call it.

IMO it's not so hard to think of a stable method signature for that
kind of cases.

  Okay, I have yet another approach that I thought of while walking my
  dogs that is much more JSF-ish and goes along with Christi's email on
  sub-renderers.
 
  Instead creating a whole bloody wrapper API framework that would make
  the API hard to change, what about breaking the renderers down even
  more into subclasses.
 
  Take the tr:panelPopup for example again. It has:
  Outer container
  Trigger
  Popup
Title bar
Close button
Body
 
  So lets say this is how the renderer could be built:
  First, create a bunch of renderer types:
  org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.Popup
  org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.Popup.Trigger
  org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.Popup.PopupShell
  org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.Popup.TitleBar
  org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.Popup.ButtonArea
  org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.Popup.Body
 
  Then register a default renderer for each of these types.
 
  Then the PanelPopupRenderer would in encodeAll:
 
  render outer DIV (ppr stuff)
  call a render utils method to get the renderer for the trigger and encode
 it
  call a render utils method to get the renderer for the popup shell and
  encode it
 
  in the popup shell renderer:
  encode the outer HTML
  call a render utils method to get the renderer for the title bar and
 encode
  it
  call a render utils method to get the renderer for the popup body and
 encode
  it
 
  in the title bar renderer:
  encode the outer HTML
  encode the title
  call a render utils method to get the renderer for the button area and
  encode it
 
  in the body renderer:
  encode the outer HTML
  encode the children components
 
  This way there are many renderers to one component. The renderers
  would be registered in the faces-config.xml just like any ordinary
  renderers. Since the FacesBean allows renderers to encode any
  component that has certain property keys, this is ideal.
 
  Take for example the close button on the popup, we could have a faces
  bean alias wrapper. What I mean by this is something like this:
 
  public class PopupTitleBarRenderer extends XhtmlRenderer {
protected void encodeAll(FacesContext context, RenderingContext rc,
  UIComponent component, FacesBean bean) throws IOException {
  FacesBean wrapped = new AliasedFacesBean(bean);
  wrapped.map(text, title);
  ...
 
  This way a command button renderer could be used to render the close
  button using the title from the dialog as the text of the button.
 
  Using this way, the only exposed API are the sub-renderer types that
  can be defined in the faces config. New types can be added and old
  ones removed without breaking Java interfaces or abstract class APIs
  (although it would have to be controlled to not break custom code too
  badly).

Andrew I really like you idea from the other thread (the trick one :) ).
Having new renderer types in the API and being able to override them
via faces-config
sounds much more standard and clean.

Probably we should wait and see where the other thread leads to
and then start a vote on this

Re: [Trinidad] private / protected final methods in renderers

2008-04-10 Thread Cristi Toth
Well, between having developers not being able to override some simple
behaviour
and keeping backwards compatibility on subclassers,
I'll choose the 2nd one.

This is the reason that some components from tomahawk,
that are less feature-enabled that thos in Trinidad,
are considered more flexible and easier to customize than the ones in
Trinidad.

Quite some experienced MyFaces developers told me to
forget overriding table and input renderers in Trinidad
(some of the most frequently used renderers).


So between not having a feature at all and being careful not to break
backwards compatibility on some methods,
the second one doesn't seem that bad, but the first one does.

Re: [Trinidad] private / protected final methods in renderers

2008-04-10 Thread Cristi Toth
Well I think we don't see the problem in the same way.

What does good design mean in this case ...!?
Making some methods protected and remove the final for others doesn't hurt
Trinidad itself at all.
So you can't say this is bad design.

If the bad design refers to what we offer the clients, than this is
definitely wrong.
Because a quite a lot of clients that me or some of my collaborators have
interacted with,
have complained a lot about Trinidad code that's so CLOSED !!!
Many said that instead of trying a small feature to the trinidad table,
you better take the Tomahawk one, and add all the feature you need on it.
It's easier and cleaner.

The faces-config allows you to override any renderer for any component,
right !?
So renderers are meant to be overriden. (by the JSF spec)
This is the beauty of JSF, because it's so flexible and customizable.
How do you expect to override Trinidad renderers?
Copying all the code and make some small changes?
Imagine that overriding some behaviour of some larger renderers,
you have to override the whole renderer hierarchy (i.w.
LabelAndMessageRenderer).

Between duplicating the whole renderer code
and just having some protected renderer methods,
which sounds better in design?

If we talk about backwards compatibilty,
then imagine a whole duplicated renderer which isn't aware of any other
updated renderers...
And if a custom renderer developer gets a compile error after an update,
I assume it won't take him to much time to fix it...

If a renderer is not in the API, this means that it shouldn't be overriden
!?
Let's think a bit out of the box and try to figure what's best for the
client.
Because that's what matters most...

 The overuse of final is largely irrelevant in impl packages.  The reason
 is that removing a final allows the class to remain binary compatible and
 only items inside of the impl package should be extending the class.

 In some cases, final helps ensure an implied contract.  In other words, if
 something is final, you know it's implemented nowhere else.  In API's I
 agree with Andy, final should be used only to enforce a contract that should
 not (can not) change.  Most commonly this is used on immutable classes/api
 but it has some other uses.

  Final should be used for its intended purpose.  Sure, in some cases
  final may be abused, but then those cases should be corrected.  That
  doesn't mean that final should rarely be used - it should be used when
  appropriate.
 
  Again, I don't see how open vs. closed source comes into play here.
  Good API design is good API design, whether open or closed source.
 
 
 
   I would suggest a renderer-by-renderer approach though, not
   method-by-method
as that would take too long to file that many bugs.
  
  
 
  I am not sure I understand the difference between these approaches.
  At some point somebody will need to evaluate specific methods to
  determine whether changes are required.
 
  Personally I prefer the approach that Blake alluded to, which is to
  open things up as the need arises.  (I may have missed it, but I don't
  remember seeing the particular offending cases which triggered this
  discussion.)
 
 
 
Right now Trinidad and facelets are by far the most inflexible open
source code I have worked with. Both over-use final and both assume
that out-of-the box behavior is enough fore everyone's needs. For
Trinidad renderers, many only expose encodeAll as protected then do
most of the work in private methods. As a result a person needing to
customize a renderer has to use copy  paste (generate an entirely
   new
renderer using the source of the core one) which really sucks for
maintenance.
  
  
 
  I don't understand this at all.  Why would anyone do that, vs. log an
  issue, submit a patch, fix the problem, revel in the magic of open
  source?
 
  Is the issue here really that the renderers as a whole are considered
  off-limits to subclassing, due to the fact that they are located in
  trinidadinternal (not trinidadapi)?

[Trinidad] private / protected final methods in renderers

2008-04-09 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi guys,

A lot of Trinidad renderers have some override useful methods as private
or protected final.
This makes customizing renderers a nasty job.

- first these methods obviously can't be overriden
- then when trying to override some public/protected methods,
  it's hard because they use other private methods that you can't use in
your overriden method

I assume this come from the fact that Trinidad wasn't open-source in its
origins... or?
Do we still have reasons to keep it this way?

IMO we could make those protected final override useful methods to
protected
and the private methods used in those methods, make them protected final.

What's you opinion on this?

I fixed some renderers using statement similar to this:

}

this is because in output mode printable scripting is disabled
so no need for rendering scripts or on event handlers

they usually generated js erros because the js dependencies were not found

Re: [Trinidad] xss files?

2008-04-06 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi,

The issue TRINIDAD-1042 duplicates TRINIDAD-799 (which is not assigned to
skinning, but to components)

Andrew originally had these ideas:

Possible implementations:

1) @agent ie6 { ... }

2) @agent ie { @agentVersion 6 { ... } }

A more general and more powerful approach would be to allow developers to
use a regex on the browser version:

@agent match /MSIE [67]/


I could at least handle this issue, but we have to agree on one format
and one other short question: should we also support version for platforms?

cheers,

Reporter: Andy Schwartz
Priority: Minor

 Under the covers Trinidad still uses the legacy XSS style definition 
 mechanism (eg. see base-desktop.xss). It would be nice to finally port these 
 XSS files over to CSS, since the CSS is a far more familiar language. 
 However, before we can do that, we need to add a few remaining XSS features 
 which our not present in our CSS skinning implementation.
 One feature that we support in XSS but not in CSS is the ability to define 
 (browser) version-specific styles. In XSS, this is done via the versions 
 attribute on the styleSheet element.  In our CSS skins, we already support 
 agent-specific styles via @agent rules.  Perhaps we can enhance this to 
 include version information.  For example, we currently can do:
 @agent ie { ie-specific styles }
 It would be nice to be able to do:
 @agent ie6 { ie6-specific styles here }
 @agent ie7 { ie7-specific styles here }
 Logging this issue to request that we add similar support to CSS skinning, 
 with the goal of being able to convert our XSS files over to CSS.

Hi,

AFAIK the navigationTree renderer is an old UIX deprecated renderer
and doesn't handle skinning correctly as you noticed.
It should be refactored, but neither I nor somebody else found time to do
it.

But, I think you can use the normal tree component
with command components in it.

 Well met all,

 First time posting here, and new to Trinidad, so hopefully following
 proper etiquette.

 I am looking to re-skin the navigationTree element and in searching the
 archives on MarkMail I found several threads with references, the most
 recent was on 2007/10/08 by A.Winer where he talked about it requiring
 refactoring because it was using the older UIX component and that we'd
 have a new one in core.xhtml. I contacted Adam, but he said he was no
 longer working on the project, thus he never was able to do it, so I was
 wondering if this has been done?

 Second I found a post back in 2007/01/08 again about a skinning the
 navigationTree, but no responses to that query?

 So again, looking for help/advise. I need to change the  symbol that
 is displayed to a graphical image.

Re: NavigationTree skinning/refactored?

2008-03-26 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi,

The navigationTree renderer was never refactored indeed.
I intended to do that, but never had the time.
But I think you can use the normal tree with some command components in it.
The tree renderer is refactored and has some nice skinning features.

regards,

 Well met all,

 First time posting here, and new to Trinidad, so hopefully following
 proper etiquette.

 I am looking to re-skin the navigationTree element and in searching the
 archives on MarkMail I found several threads with references, the most
 recent was on 2007/10/08 by A.Winer where he talked about it requiring
 refactoring because it was using the older UIX component and that we'd
 have a new one in core.xhtml. I contacted Adam, but he said he was no
 longer working on the project, thus he never was able to do it, so I was
 wondering if this has been done?

 Second I found a post back in 2007/01/08 again about a skinning the
 navigationTree, but no responses to that query?

 So again, looking for help/advise. I need to change the  symbol that
 is displayed to a graphical image.

Re: open link in new window prevention

2008-03-05 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi Mario,

Why do you say that some browsers can't open the link in a new window?
At least you can use the target attribute of the form and it should work...

regards,

On Wed, Mar 5, 2008 at 9:39 PM, Mario Ivankovits [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 Hi!

 Is there any reason that the MyFaces command link is rendered with
 href=# and onlclick=return xxx() instead of href=javascript: ?

 It seems, the latter will make the open link in new window feature of
 some browsers stopping to work. Which is what I'd like to have.

 What do you think about a context parameter e.g.
 org.apache.myfaces.OPEN_NEW_WINDOW_PREVENTION=true|false which will
 change how the commandLink renders the link? The default can be false
 to be compatible to the current behavior, though, I think defaulting to
 true wouldn't be that bad.

 What do you think?

 I have decided to temporarily quit my side project for various issues,

 more time on it. When I was doing this project, I was disapointed by
 Trinidad's skins and its demo. As a result, I have created 979 and 980
 Jira issues.:

 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRINIDAD-979
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRINIDAD-980

 What I plan to do over the next weeks and months, is to clean up the
 Trinidad look of Trinidad. I feel that Trinidad will be a lot more
 popular if it would have a better demo and look better out of the box.
 Hopefully this will help Trinidad to be a better competitor to JBoss
 (RichFaces) and other competitors and give the community an interim
 improvement until, perhaps, the Oracle rich application is donated and
 makes its way through the incubation process.

 I may want to start the skin soon and then after that, the demo. I
 can't see how anyone would object to this, but please let me know if
 you have any concerns or issues with them.

 Also, please let me know if you want to help out and can devote some
 time to either one of these projects and perhaps this can be broken up
 into different components per person or something.

 Thanks,

[Trinidad] table total row

2008-02-28 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi,

I would like to separate the footer and the total row concepts form the
Trinidad table.
My suggestion sounds like this:
- adding a total facet to tr:column
- adding a totalRowPosition property to tr:table with the folloing
possible values:
  - top - (just under the column headers
  - bottom (just above the column footer)
  - both
  - none

Also from the skinning point of view:
- having af|column::footer-text, af|column::footer-number (instead of
total...)
- using the af|column::total-text, af|column::total-number only for the
total row
- adding af|table::total-row skin selector to be applied on the tr

what do you say about the backward compatiblity of af|column::total-text in
the footer?
should I render both classes in the footer cell?

Please give some feedback (critics) on my suggestion
and tell me if you would want this in trinidad!

Re: [Trinidad] Release Notes page

Hi,

Shouldn't the release page contain at least the list of fixed issues /
new features from the release?
I think it would be of great help to project managers to decide to do
an update or not.
I know that it is additional work for the release manager...
but a copy/paste of the issue headers would be really useful.

 Two options I see here:
 -delete the release notes page.
 -duplicate the content on that page (from the real release notes,

 I tend to vote for the 1st option.

 What is your take on that?

Re: [Trinidad] content compression

Hi Matthias,

I think it would be great help for developers which first encounter
skinning.

 Hi,

 I have the feeling that it might be helpful for the demo app to turn
 content compression OFF!
 So that you see CSS classes like af_comp_blah instead of xyz.

 Yes, it is a performance hit, but by default it is enabled (the
 compression).
 In the web.xml file, we can add a WARNING like:
 NEVER have this in production etc..

 what are you thinking ?

 Hey Frank,

 Sorry for me beeing not attentive.
 The code is comitted and should work.

 But for the nice node icons (folder/document/...) to work,
 you need to have in your tree node class a getNodeType() method
 that returns for each node it's type (String)

 i.e. if for one node the method returns folder
 then you will have the following selectors:
 af|tree::node-icon:folder-collapsed (for a collapsed node - if it has
 children)
 af|tree::node-icon:folder-expanded (for an expanded node - if it has
 children)
 af|tree::node-icon:folder (for a node that doesn't have children)

 this way you could skin each node different,
 just by changing the value returned by getNodeType() method.

 A good example you find in the trinidad-demo
 the node class is DemoTreeData and the skin file is beach.css

 Sorry for the late answer and hope to be of some help.

Hi

I have refactored the tree skinning in november.
But it was only comitted in the 1.0.* trunk.
I will try to prepare a patch for 1.2.* this week-end.
(hope I'll have some time)

  Simon,

 thanks, I will give the different URL usage a try. Note that I am not
 talking about the expanded / disclosed icon, but the folder icon. In ADF
 Faces the node icon (disclosed / expanded) is a puls/minus image. That I got
 working in Trinidad. However, after that icon in ADF Faces there comes a
 folder icon, which I cannot get working in Trinidad though the selector
 seems to be there

 Simon Lessard wrote:

 Hello Frank,

 I see the following selectors in SkinSelectors:

   public static final String AF_TREE_EXPANDED_ICON =
 af|tree::expanded-icon;
   public static final String AF_TREE_COLLAPSED_ICON =
 af|tree::collapsed-icon;

 So the good skin's CSS value should be:
 af|tree::collapsed-icon{content:url('/skins/oracle/images/tfold.gif');}
 af|tree::expanded-icon{content:url('/skins/oracle/images/tfold.gif');}


 Also note that Trinidad deals with URL differently than ADF Faces so if
 the images are in a sub-directory of the folder containing the skin's CSS
 file, then you can use relative URL like the following to achieve the same
 result.
 af|tree::collapsed-icon{content:url('images/tfold.gif');}
 af|tree::expanded-icon{content:url('images/tfold.gif');}

Re: Skinning selectors for tree component in Trinidad 1.2.4 missing

2008-01-11 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi all!

I added the current tree skinning selectors some months ago.
This happened before the decision of letting the comitter to copy changes
from 1.0.* to 1.2.* (instead of the one who does the release)
I did the changes only for 1.0.* branch and by the lack of time I assumed it
was also copied into 1.2.* (sorry for that)
I checked and indeed the tree is updated only in 1.0.* branch.

The original issue was TRINIDAD-769.
I will test the patch provided there with 1.2.* and, if necessary, I will
update it.

 I tried to skin the tree component in Trinidad 1.2.4 (trying to show

 renederer class, have any skin selectors defined. The tree table looks
 fine, so I am wondering what has happened to the skin selectors for the
 tree.

Re: Server state saving and multiple frames

  The second part of the problem still remains: how to associate a

   Hi,
  
 There is a problem in JSF when more than one window are opened
   in an application.
   There are only a maximum number of NUMBER_OF_VIEWS_IN_SESSION  view
   states saved at one moment (when server side state saving is enabled).
   If you have 2 windows opened and you navigate on one of them for
   NUMBER_OF_VIEWS_IN_SESSION times, you will lose the other window's
   state.
  
   I've been facing this problem while developing a project so I've
   implemented a solution for it.
  
  The solution is having a number of view states saved for each
   opened window at one moment.
   For determining when a new window (frame) is opened, the target of the
   submitting component (or its enclosing form) is used.
   This is obtained in the HtmlLinkRendererBase's and
   HtmlButtonRendererBase's decode methods and it is set in the
   RequestMap.
   Using the submitted target, the JspStateManagerImpl figures out
   whether a new frame was opened.
   If so, a new frame id is generated.
   In the renderResponse phase, the frameId is encoded in the
   javax.faces.ViewState field
   and is used along with the viewId to save the state in a
   SerializedViewCollection.
   In the restore view phase the frameId is decoded from the
   javax.faces.ViewState field
   and is used along with the viewId to restore the corresponding state
   from the SerializedViewCollection.
  
  In SerializedViewCollection instead of a list of recently used
   views, now a list is kept for each frameId.
   The following context params are defined for configuring this.
   NUMBER_OF_FRAMES_IN_SESSION (max frames stored)
   NUMBER_OF_VIEWS_IN_FRAME (max views stored per frame)
   These replace the old: NUMBER_OF_VIEWS_IN_SESSION context-param.
  
  
   What is your opinion on this solution?
  
 Of course this solution only works with MyFaces Tomahawk's
   commandLink and commandButton.
   Ohter component sets that do not use a custom stateManager might use
   this feature
   if they will just modify the renderers of command components to set
   the target attribute in the requestMap.
  
 An extra feature would be to enable this for outputLinks (plain
   old links) and for JS (openWindow).
   The solution for this is quite simple, just add a GET parameter named
   'target' and set the value the same as the target attribute.
   In the JspStateManagerImpl this value is obtained from the
   requestParameterMap and used the same as in the other case.
   Do you think this would be useful too?

   Nicu

state saving (StateManager) and multiple frames (HACKATHON points 4 and 6)

2007-11-23 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi all!

Point 4 on Hackathon list (http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/Hackathon_2007) :
- look at supporting multiple concurrent windows in
MyFaceshttp://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/MyFaceswith server-side state.
Currently AFAIK there is only one viewstate pool,
not one per window, so using one window can force the state backing the
other window to be discarded. This may overlap with the externalise view
cache proposal currently logged as a JIRA issue.

We already started doing this for one of our customers
and of course thought that this would be a nice feature to add in MyFaces.

The simple solution we thought about consists of the following:
- in JspStateManagerImpl :
  - adding frameId attribute to the protected class SerializedViewKey
(similar to the sequenceId attribute)
  - in the protected class SerializedViewCollection
 - transforming the _keys list into a matrix, where each line stores the
keys corresponding to a frameId
 - defining a context param DEFAULT_NUMBER_OF_FRAMES_IN_SESSION
 - changing DEFAULT_NUMBER_OF_VIEWS_IN_SESSION to
DEFAULT_NUMBER_OF_VIEWS_FOR_FRAME
- in HtmlResponseStateManager
 - adding an array item containing the frameId to the saveState array
(in all the methods)

I think this will solve the problem with having multiple frames

Then I noticed point 6 on the Hackathon wiki page:
- clean up the state-saving code (JsfStateManagerImpl,
HtmlResponseStateManager). Currently, every state option has been
implemented by adding code to these classes. It would be nice to instead
have a separate subclass per strategy; see INIT_PARAM_VIEWSTATE_JAVASCRIPT
implementation for an ugly example. This then enables easier
implementation/experimentation with new strategies.

I totally agree with this.
Can you give us some ideas how to decouple this code?
And how to add the capability for programmers to change the state saving
strategy ?

Thanks for any advices,

[Trinidad] treeTable improvements + fix

2007-10-08 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi all!

I'm currently working on the treeTable rendering / skinning and I some
improvements / fixes in mind.

First I noticed that the row banding doesn't work right.
at each deeper level (expanded node) it resets the banding to 0
meaning the each first child node starts with the first color (no matter
what color is the previous row)
Am I wrong? If not, I'll try and fix this.

Improvements:
Some people need to be able to hide the breadCrumbs and the focus column,
because they don't need it.
I thought that it would be nice to have a parameter 'focusingEnabled' with
the default value to true
And if it's set to false, to hide the breadcrumbs row and the focus
component.
What do you say?

[Trindiad] breadCrumbs skinning improvement

2007-10-08 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi!

I hava an improvement idea on the breadCrumbs skinning.
When the orientation is set to vertical, in other applications, the
separator is just before the text entry
a line corner (like the last node of a tree)
But this means that we need to be able to put the separator icon in front of
the text.

So I thought to add a skinning property '-tr-breadCrumbs-separator-position'

with the possible values 'before' or 'after'
What do you say?

[Trinidad] panelTabbed skinning improvement

2007-10-08 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi!

The skinning of the pannelTabbed component could be improved
so that it can have round cornered tabs (like in most of the applications),
similar to navigationPanel with hint=tabs but simpler.

My opinion is to have the following selectors:
af:panelTabbed::
- beforeCell (-selected)
- cell (-selected)
- afterCell (-selected)
- separatorCell

This way it would be skinnable very nice.

BUT... what to do for backwards compatibillity?

[Trinidad] tree components skinning improvement

2007-10-08 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi!

I already did some work on the tree components:
I added the lines to the tree and the capability to skin the expand /
collapse icons.

But normal trees also have some different icons for each node (next to the
expand/collapse icon)
In tomahawk, each node has a sting property named 'type'
which is then used to define facets with that name and inside you can render
icons or whatever.
This way you can put for each node type an icon.

I thought that in trinidad I could just use that 'type' attribute to get the
icon from the skin
so there'll be icon skinSelectors like : af|tree::node-icon:type
type beeing the value of the 'type' parameter.

There are 2 ways of doing this.
1. add the optional property to the tree node class
2. extend the tree node class and add the property

Which one do you suggest?

[Trinidad] skinning TEXT keys documentation missing?

2007-10-08 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi!

I'm using skinning to have internationalized components (with my bundle)
and I noticed there's absolutely no documentation about this.
So you have to look into the renderers to find this info.
And in most of them the strings aren't even declared as constants.

Is there somewhere a hidden documentation?
If not we should open a JIRA issue for this.

Re: [Trinidad] navigationTree not refactored???

2007-10-08 Thread Cristi Toth
Hi Adam!

No problem, I'll do it.
But I need to know some start points...
i.e. It took me some 1/2 hour to figure that the actual renderer that does
the job
is the NavigationTreeRenderer from ui.laf.desktop package not the close to
useless one from the uix package.

Is something from the uix package classes really needed in this case?
Should I rely on the old ComandNavigationRenderer or refactor that too?

Please tell from where to start (so I don't loose to much time)
and what things should I look for (not to mess it up).

I really need this and I have a very short time for this. (wednesday at
noon)

 Hi all,

 I've done some work on the tree renderer in Trinidad
 I added the connecting lines, like in Tomahawk (or any other tree) behind
 the expanded/collapsed icon (-, +)
 I now have 5 skin-selectors for the tree:

 af|tree::expanded-icon
 af|tree::collapsed-icon
 - these are the [-], [+] icons

 af|tree::line-icon - this one is the vertical line
 af|tree::line-middle-icon - this one is the horizontal line for each entry
 (used in the back of the expanded/collapsed icon)
 af|tree::line-last-icon - this one is like the one above, but it is used
 in the case of the last sibling (the corner)

 now some questions:

 1) should I add a 'renderLines' attribute to the 'tree' component to
 enable/disable the lines ?

 I would make this a skin property, not a per instance component property.
 Something like:
 af|tree { -tr-render-lines: true}


Sounds better indeed!

2) should I let the lines be skinnable and add them to the base skin?

 it's up to you. Showing/hiding them with the skin property probably is
 enough.


So you think it's useless to make the lines skinnable? (sounds fine with me)

3) if I let them be skinnable, then should I ommit the 'renderLines' attr
 and let the user just override the line icons with blank ones?

 again, I think this should be a skin property.



 Next, I worked on the TreeTable renderer. I made the 'Expand All /
 Collapse All' links skinnable.

 1. should I move the the 'Expand All / Collapse All' links on the first
 row and get rid of the 2nd ?
 It seems quite useless to have 2 rows

 not sure what you mean.


If you look in the  screen-shot at the treeTable on the 2nd row there are
the 'expand all/collapse all' links.
I think they would fit perfectly on the first row (along the previous /
next) and to get rid of the 2nd row (subControlBar)

2. should I also make the focus link 'X' skinnable (it looks kind of lame
 right now) ?

 sure. I'm surprised it isn't already.


 3. should I add some attributes for disabling the focus column and the
 breadCrumbs, for people who don't need them?

 4. I noticed a bug in the row banding, it's not correctly rendered, I
 suppose it would be nice if I fix it...

 You can see here a pictures with the results of what I did until now:

 Hello Cristi,

 Although maybe we should deal with that issue, they way you used skin
 additions is not what it was meant to be at first. Normally skin additions
 should be used to extend the selector set of another existing skin, like
 when adding new components, not CSS splitting. Therefore, skin additions
 should not be overlapping most of the times. There might still be an issue
 if we have the following case:

 SimpleSkin + SimpleSkinAddition
 |
 |
 CustomSkin + CustomSkinAddition

 In that case, CustomSkinAddition should indeed have priority over
 SimpleSkinAddition. That being said, I would not be all against allowing
 SkinAddition to be used for file splitting.

Re: [Trinidad] Skining - strange default value in: base-desktop.xss

2007-08-11 Thread Cristi Toth
the thing is that the order in which the nodes are handled is very important

the base skin style-sheet should be the first
and the custom style-sheet should be the last
this way any property inhibit or override should work as needed

it's useless to load all the properties and then apply the tr-inhibit
because my property will still be overwritten by that in the base-skin
and the tr-inhibit will inhibit ANY property definition

the big problem is in the order the style-sheets are handled

 probably fill a JIRA issue about this.

   I had that discussion a while back during incubation. I would also
   like a very light (empty) base skin and we're actually going to make one

   single selectors and add a -tr-inhibit: all;, effectively disabling all

well, I used a ViewHandler which initialized the skinning
but Martin told me that for PPR rendering purposes I should do it from the

and I'm not using a Filter (like the trinidad filter)

I'm really busy these days,

Hi Jeanne,

I'm really glad that you're interested!
I know that you have great experience in skinning and that you know the code
well.
I'd love to cooperate with you to make this really work nice.

Now, I'm still working on some small things, before I'll make the code
public.
I'm hurrying (even if I'm really busy these days)

 I'd love to have an independent skinning module that all renderers can
 use.

 We'll need a good plan on how we want to break this up and what APIs we
 have available for the renderers, what's public, what's private, how it
 works for pda, for portal, etc. We also need to put in place lots of
 tests so that we can ensure we don't break anything. Right now I do
 manual testing -- I run the app in a couple different skins and save the
 css file. Then before I check in I run the skins again and compare the
 css files. I do this in compressed and uncompressed modes. I'd love it
 if we have some automated tests so that we don't break skinning as we
 are refactoring it.

 One feature I think we need is an API for the renderer to be able to
 'map' a skin selector to something else -- like af|foo::bar-link could
 map to af|foo::bar A. We don't want to expose af|foo::bar A as a
 public skin selector because it shows the implementation of the
 renderer. Right now we do this in FileSystemStyleCache, and that's
 obviously not a good way to do it. Anyway... that's on my list.

 Cristi, I'm interested to see what you have done.

Re: [Skinning] independent MyFaces skinning module

2007-08-01 Thread Cristi Toth
well, I refactored the old RenderingContext into more simple classes and
with a lot less dependencies

my approach was also Decorating existing renderers
but for Tomahawk, I did one generic Renderer for all components, based on
reflection
it just searches for any Class' or 'StyleClass' ending properties in the
component
and if it finds them then it searches for their name in the defined
selectors and sets the appropriate styleClasses into the component

it is really important to have the skinning independent,
because one that uses tomahawk, might not want to have trinidad dependencies
and this module could be adapted to ANY component set
but there's still a lot to refactor in that skinning code

I still have some minor things to do that Martin Marinscheck suggested,
just to be sure that it's compatible with everything
and that in the near future Trinidad can use this too

well unfortunately, I haven't done any serious documentation,
because I was really in a hurry
but I'm prepared to do it
and afterwards discuss with you guys what to do next

thanks for the replies

Re: [Skinning] independent MyFaces skinning module

2007-08-01 Thread Cristi Toth
Well the nice thing was that I don't need to define the selectors statically
somewhere
f.e. the selectors for tomahawk are made on this rule:
mf|fully_qualified_component_Class::style_property_name:css_pseudo_class

mf - is the prefix from MyFaces
fully_qualified_component_Class - is the full class name with the '.'
replaced with _
style_property_name - is the property name without the 'Class' /
'StyleClass' suffix
css_pseudo_class - is a normal css pseudo class i.e. ':hover'

here are some examples:
mf|org_apache_myfaces_component_html_ext_HtmlDataTable::header
mf|javax_faces_component_html_HtmlCommandLink:hover

well, first this solution is not perfect
but it already offers very much of the functionality for EVERY COMPONENT
you can also extend the Renderer for particular components


about the properties ending in Class but not being a StyleClass property
the only thing you shouldn't do is declare that selector in the skin


about properties with style classes list (rowClasses, columnClasses)
it's very simple : you can define the selectors with the suffix
rowClass1,rowClass2, ...

for any uncommon skinning behavior, you just have to extend the base
renderer

 Hi Cristi

 In order to give you feedback, and gain some feedback too, I have some
 comments and questions about this topic:

 You wrote:

 reflection
 it just searches for any Class' or 'StyleClass' ending properties in the
 component
 and if it finds them then it searches for their name in the defined

 It sounds good, I started doing something similiar, but there are some
 components that use class ending properties for another uses different to
 CSS classes. By example:

- s:graphicImage ( imageRendererClass )
- s:outputLinkDynamic ( resourceRendererClass )

 Fortunately, only these two components have this problem. The question is
 how to avoid use this fields as CSS class properties?

 I have found other things like this:

 Suppose you want to skin properties in h:dataTable like rowClasses and
 columnClasses. The first approach is doing the same like in other
 properties. But It has its drawbacks. This properties are a list of comma
 separated CSS classes. How do you plan to skin this?

 Take a look at t:column and t:columns component. This component does not
 have a renderer!!!. You have to put the code inside the class that decorate
 the render of t:dataTable and s:autoUpdateDataTable. How to skin this
 component?

 And the final question: How do you find the selector? how a component
 selector looks like?

 I hope that this contribute to you project.

Re: [Skinning] independent MyFaces skinning module

2007-08-01 Thread Cristi Toth
smart boy, you figured it out
yes, I try to get the translated styleClass and if I don't get anything, I
do nothing

about ..Classes properties
as mentioned above I try to get 'rowClass1', 'rowClass2' and so on until I
don't get the translated styleClass

about registering renderers
well, I have a full delegating RenderKit
but I'm still working on how to add it
because I have to let the user define it's own render-kit and then decorate
it

I still have some small things to do
after that, I'll put the sources in a public place so everybody can
contribute

 statically somewhere
 f.e. the selectors for tomahawk are made on this rule:
 mf|fully_qualified_component_Class::style_property_name:css_pseudo_class

 I get to the same selector solution at start of my project too, I say this
 to my graphical designer, but he doesn't understand this, because is too
 much complicated to do something like this in my case:

 af|javax_faces_component_html_HtmlOutputText::style:hover{

 }

 if is a tomahawk component:

 af|org_apache_myfaces_component_html_ext_HtmlOutputText::style {

 }

 But the designer see in the jsp something like this

 h:outputText . /

 or

 t:outputText . /

 He had to ask me every time for each component what is the selector, and
 look through tomahawk code
 for the correct class name. It could be more clear if you can do this:

 h|outputText::style
 {

 }

 But you have to create one class per component that looks something like
 this:

 package org.apache.myfaces.custom.skin.html ;

 import org.apache.myfaces.custom.skin.AdapterSkinRenderer;

 public class HtmlOutputTextSkinRenderer extends AdapterSkinRenderer
 {

 public HtmlOutputTextSkinRenderer()
 {
 super(h, outputText);
 }
 }

 Note that the price for an increase of code is very low, compared with the
 easy of use and speed of code for my designer.

 Note that this is my point of view, not the absolute truth.

 about the properties ending in Class but not being a StyleClass property
 the only thing you shouldn't do is declare that selector in the skin

 So you hacked the map that contains the skin selectors (in the original
 Skin implementation of trinidad hide this map) and I suppose that you can
 find the selectors mapped to a specific component ?. or you call to a class
 that works like RenderingContext like this:

 styleClass = arc.getStyleClass(selector);

 And if does not return anything you don't set the property through
 reflection?

 about properties with style classes list (rowClasses, columnClasses)
 it's very simple : you can define the selectors with the suffix
 rowClass1,rowClass2, ...

 Cool idea! But for doing this you have to search through the selectors
 that matches for an specific component (this feature is not inside trinidad
 skin implementation)? How you are doing this?

 for any uncommon skinning behavior, you just have to extend the base
 renderer

 How do you register the extended the base renderer? How does he call to
 the base renderer in tomahawk?

 Sorry if I ask many questions but I want to do the best for the community
 (and for my projects too!!). If you could publish your code with Apache
 2.0 license, It would be nice ;)
