Hi, I'm trying that also and I'm very interested in the topic. I'm trying to 'merge' a given J2EE app with XWiki to enhance the existing app with XWikis community features. (Comments, annotations, documentation, help, e.t.c.).
So far I've managed to make them both running under a common domain name with some tweaking of Apache mod-proxy and unifying the (example) urls http://example.com/app/here_goes_my_java_app <http://mydomain.com/app/here_goes_my_java_app> http://example.com/docs/heres_the_wiki_stuff <http://mydomain.com/docs/heres_the_wiki_stuff> Apache Httpd (mod_proxy) is configured as a seperate service to run upfront of the servelet container (Tomcat). This took some effort as I had to learn a lot about the Apache mod_proxy stuff but its not XWiki related so far. As both apps have quite a different look and feel I've further been struggling with adapting XWikis skins to the look and feel of my app - this turned out be be less work than I thought just by adding my apps stylesheet WebPreferences and commenting out a lot of the existing styles with 'display: none'. Both apps have their own db and the next step is to achieve single logon - I haven't yet managed that but plans are to make XWiki looking up for users in the my apps database. Currently I'm having trouble with the anonymous commenting feature of xwiki, it always rejects all input. Maybe this has to do with my setup but all other stuff works pretty well. Is anybody aware of a public xwiki with enabled anon commenting feature ? As its sort of fun and part time project things may take a while ... If you are interested please drop me a note and I'll send a mail once it is online ... Have fun Andreas xManish schrieb: > Has anybody embedded xwiki into their existing project?
