Hi all, I would like to go ahead with committing http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4775 before the 2.2 final release (because I would like annotations to work as clean as possible on 2.2 final).
In order to do that, we need to agree on a set of separators for the object name and property name. There have been the following proposals so far: A wiki:Space.Page^objectName#property B wiki:Space.Page^objectName$property which has received some votes in http://markmail.org/thread/uihq4mmwgaufbcz6 but I personally would stay away from # and $ separators since they're reserved characters in velocity scripting language and it might be uncomfortable for using refs in scripts. Also, we had: C wiki:Space.Page^objectName;property and also: D wiki:Space.Page:objectName.property Which one would you prefer? Any other proposals? Any separator should be easy to implement, and roughly anything could be used as a separator (so feel free to propose). Note that there is an alternative to this, to make annotations implementable on 2.2: only add the two entity types (Object and Object Property) along with making the string serializer and string resolver extensible so one could add its own separators for the 2 new types. WDYT? Thanks, Anca _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
