[ANNOUNCE] Apache Shale To Move To the Attic
This is a heads up for the Shale user community that the Shale PMC has voted to move the project to the Attic. This means that the Shale developers (more formally its Project Management Committee) have voted to retire Shale and move the responsibility for its oversight over to the Attic project. The MyFaces community has expressed interest in continuing development of the Shale-Test module and the Shale PMC will work with MyFaces to migrate this piece of the codebase.. Look for further announcements to that regard in the near future. You can read more about the Apache Attic at http://attic.apache.org. You can follow the progress of the move at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATTIC-2 if you so wish. On behalf of the Apache Shale PMC, Thanks! Greg Reddin

Can you please recommend alternative projects for migration of deployed View-Controller and Remote features? Thanks. Just my viewpoint: probably your best bet would be to migrate to Seam and/or ajax4jsf. But if you just don't feel like leaving Shale... This doesn't mean the code is going to disappear. The code will be housed in the Apache Attic svn. I'm not sure about existing releases, but I doubt they will be removed from Maven repos, etc. If you feel like the code needs further improvement feel free to start it back up at Google Code or elsewhere. The only caveat to forking is that ASF still holds the Apache Shale trademark so you'd have to come up with a different name. Thanks, Greg

[Travel Assistance] Applications for ApacheCon EU 2009 - Now Open
The Travel Assistance Committee is now accepting applications for those wanting to attend ApacheCon EU 2009 between the 23rd and 27th March 2009 in Amsterdam. The Travel Assistance Committee is looking for people who would like to be able to attend ApacheCon EU 2009 who need some financial support in order to get there. There are very few places available and the criteria is high, that aside applications are open to all open source developers who feel that their attendance would benefit themselves, their project(s), the ASF or open source in general. Financial assistance is available for travel, accommodation and entrance fees either in full or in part, depending on circumstances. It is intended that all our ApacheCon events are covered, so it may be prudent for those in the United States or Asia to wait until an event closer to them comes up - you are all welcome to apply for ApacheCon EU of course, but there must be compelling reasons for you to attend an event further away that your home location for your application to be considered above those closer to the event location. More information can be found on the main Apache website at http://www.apache.org/travel/index.html - where you will also find a link to the online application form. Time is very tight for this event, so applications are open now and will end on the 4th February 2009 - to give enough time for travel arrangements to be made. Good luck to all those that apply. Regards, The Travel Assistance Committee --

The Call for Papers is now open for ApacheCon US 2009, taking place 2-6 November in Oakland, California. Proposals are being accepted at http://us.apachecon.com/c/acus2009/cfp/ and can be revised at anytime until the submissions closing deadline of 28 February 2009. In addition, sponsorship opportunities for both ApacheCon EU 2009/Amsterdam and ApacheCon US 2009/Oakland are available. Please contact Delia Frees at [EMAIL PROTECTED] for further information. Please, read on... *** ApacheCon Celebrates the ASF's 10th Anniversary in Oakland, California, 2-6 November 2009 Call for Papers Opens for ApacheCon US 2009 The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) invites submissions to its official user and developer conference, taking place 2-6 November 2009 at the Oakland Convention Center and Marriott Hotel. ApacheCon serves as a forum for showcasing the ASF's latest projects, members, and community initiatives. Offering unparalleled educational opportunities, ApacheCon's presentations, hands-on trainings, and sessions address key technology, development, business/community, and licensing issues in Open Source. The wide range of activities offered at ApacheCon promotes the exchange of ideas amongst ASF Members, committers, innovators, developers, vendors, and users interested in the future of Open Source technology. The conference program includes peer-reviewed sessions, trainings/workshops, and select invited keynote presentations and speakers. Conference Themes and Topics Building on ten years of success, ApacheCon returns to the Bay Area for the 10th anniversary of the Apache Software Foundation. Comprising some of the most active and recognized developers in the Open Source community, ApacheCon provides an influential platform for dialogue between Open Source developers and users, traversing a wide range of ideas, expertise, and personalities. ApacheCon welcomes submissions across many fields, geographic locations, and areas of development. The breadth of the Apache community lends itself to conference content that is somewhat loosely-structured, with common themes of interest addressing groundbreaking technologies and emerging trends, best practices (from development to deployment), case studies and lessons learned (tips, tools, and tricks). In addition, ApacheCon will continue to offer its highly popular, two-day intensive trainings; certifications of completion will be distributed to those who fulfill all the training requirements. Topics appropriate for submission are manifold, and may include but are not restricted to: Apache HTTP server (installation, configuration, migration, and more); ASF-wide projects (including Lucene, Hadoop, Jackrabbit, and Maven); Scripting languages and dynamic content (such as Java, Perl, Python, Ruby, XSL, and PHP); Security and e-commerce (performance tuning, load balancing and high availability); New technologies (including broader initiatives such as Web Services and Web 2.0); ASF-Incubated projects (such as Sling, UIMA, and Shindig); and Business/Community issues (Open Source driven business models, open development, enterprise adoption, and more). Submission Guidelines Submissions must include; – Session title - Speaker name - Speaker biography - Session description - Format and duration - Audience expertise level Full details are available online on the CFP page at [WWW] http://us.apachecon.com/c/acus2009/cfp/ Types of Presentations; - Trainings/Workshops - General Sessions - Case Studies/Industry Profiles - Corporate Showcases Demonstrations - Fast Feather (short) sessions - Birds of a Feather discussions - Invited Keynotes/Panels/Speakers Pre-Conference Trainings/Workshops Held on the first two days of the conference (2-3 November 2009), ApacheCon trainings are available at a registration fee beyond the regular conference fee. Proposals may be submitted for half-day (3 hours), full-day (6 hours), or two-day (12 hours) training sessions. These proposed tutorials should be aimed at providing in-depth, hands-on development experience or related continuing education. Training submissions are welcome at beginner, intermediate, and expert levels. General Sessions include presentations on practical development applications, insight into high-interest projects, best practices and key advances, overcoming implementation challenges, and industry innovations. Especially welcome are submissions that extend participants' understanding the role of ASF projects and their influence on the Open Source community at large. General Sessions are scheduled for 50 minutes and are accessible to all conference delegates. Case Study/Industry Profile Practitioners are invited to submit presentations that focus on how implementing particular ASF technologies led to improved products/solutions, service offerings, changes in work practices, among other successes.

Maybe one of our maven mavens could give some pointers on how to configure a dual deployment. Do you think we would need two maven projects?

If you want the latest release version you can download 1.0.4 here: http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/shale/ If you want something newer than that you can check out the source for 1.0.5 and build it (we're working on a 1.0.5 release).

If you go in project summary you talk about version 1.1.0! Mostly because (I think) 1.1.0 is meant to be used with JSF 1.2, etc. and the 1.0 branch is designed to work with JSF 1.1. I have projects that are currently using JSF 1.1 and I'd much rather be using a GA codebase than a milestone build. Plus I'd really like to see Shale release a GA codebase. It's been, what, 2 years? With the removal of the Tiles dependency I think 1.0.5 could be GA. So my main goal is to get a stable, relatively bug-free version of Shale out the door. No, sorry but your response does not help me because at the moment i don't know if 1.0.4 has same fix of my version. I remember that when i downloaded a snapshot version was because the stable version didn't work well. I don't know waht to do know... If you can identify your bug I can let you know if it is fixed in 1.0.5. If not, well 1.0.5 is not released yet, so maybe we can backport it. I'm working on the release now so let me know as quick as you can. Again, I'm sorry your experience has been what it is. In the future you will see more Shale work from me than you have in the past. We'll get there, but it will take time. Greg

Please join us in congratulating Gary for this new role. In addition we would like to publicly thank Craig McClanahan for his service to this project and his invaluable contribution to the Java web application development community. We are endlessly grateful to him for his role in defining the JavaServer Faces framework and, more specifically, in birthing the Shale project. It is no small loss to this community that his work has made it difficult for him to be as involved as he once was. At his own request, Craig is now an emeritus member of the Shale PMC.

I'd like to see the Tiles 2 integration sorted out first, though. I agree. That move us closer to pushing Shale towards GA :-) I'm still here, but I've had *0* time to contribute of late unfortunately. I feel like upgrading the Tiles support is about a 5-minute job, but testing it is the hard part for me. I've never actually used Tiles 2 with JSF and, in fact, Tiles 2 itself has changed so much since I last used it I'm not sure if I'm still up to speed on it :-) At any rate, the biggest help we could use is someone to give testing guidance on the Tiles 2 components. I don't want to commit code and walk away without giving it some good test support. Someone sent me a .war file a while back and I haven't looked at it yet. Maybe it will be a start. If anybody else can boil your webapp down to a few tests to put it through its paces and attach that to a JIRA, that would be most welcome. Thanks, Greg

I suppose we will developed new project for a while before it goes live so would you recommend to use nightly builds because new version will be out soon or should I stick with latest release rather? Does it have any advantage to use nightly builds over the latest release for new projects? I would think your best bet is to start with the latest release and see if it provides the functionality you need. If not, then ask here (or look in Jira) to see if the functionality has been added in a nightly. I would say the nightlies are pretty stable at this point as there has not been much church lately. We would like to use persistent connection between client and server (Jetty Continuation) and sent updates from server to client rather than client asking by request all the time probably by using drw Ajax toolkit (Ajax continuations). Can you see any possible problems to use this technology together with JSF or shale? If you're just asking about AJAX then I don't see any problems. I don't know anything about Ajax continuations so I can't really help much there. Greg

Re: which IDE are you using for JSF ?
We are using NetBeans with the mevenide plugin for maven support. We are also using Facelets and the new Facelets Netbeans plugin. That gives us autocomplete but not drag drop (I don't think). Seems to be working great. On a team of 5 two were PHP types before this project and one other had some experience in Java. The other two of us are pretty experienced Java programmers and helped bring the others along. Greg

I understand that there is an optional Tiles 2 JAR that is still in the Struts sandbox. Yes, there is still a snapshot built from the code in the Struts sandbox. You can see the snapshot builds here: http://people.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository/org/apache/struts/tiles/tiles-core/ The version that currently works with Shale is 2.0-r468346-SNAPSHOT. If you are using Maven you can use the Tiles doc located here: http://tiles.apache.org/ If you are not using Maven you'll need to download the version noted above from the snapshot repository listed above. Does all Tiles functionality in Shale require this sandbox version of Tiles or is there some Tile functionality available out-of-the-box with Shale? No, if you want to use Shale-Tiles you'll have to use the sandbox version of Tiles. This should all be clearing up soon as Tiles has been promoted to a TLP. My hope is that you will see an actual release coming out soon. HTH, Greg

2. JSF 1.1, Facelets Shale
This is the platform we are currently developing on. It's very close to
working with JSF 1.2 from what I can tell (though I have not actually used
1.2 yet).
1. EL unification. Since I'm not using JSPs, this isn't a big deal
Well, it's not entirely gone :-) You still do EL with Facelets. It's true
that Facelets allows you to use the unified EL out of the box. But I've
noticed that in some instances using Tomahawk tags I still have to use the
#{...} syntax. The net result is that our code is sprinkled with mostly
${...} and a few #{...} and I have to try to explain to new devs when
and why they have to use one or the other.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with where we are.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Apache Tiles Top Level Project
The Struts team is pleased to announce that Tiles has been promoted to its own Top Level Project. This move will allow us to stabilize the development of the Tiles 2 framework and push it towards its first final release. The website for the new project has not yet been published so here are the relevant mailing lists. Please direct all future questions and discussion about Apache Tiles to one of the following lists: * Tiles User Discussion [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Tiles Development [EMAIL PROTECTED] * SVN Commit Notifications [EMAIL PROTECTED] * JIRA Issue Tracking Notifications [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Tiles JIRA instance is hosted with the Struts project and can be found here: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/TILES The project website, when it is ready, will be found here: http://tiles.apache.org/ Please watch the Tiles mailing lists for future developments, which should be happening fairly quickly now. We thank the Struts Project for giving us a place to start and to grow, and we look forward to great things from both projects! Thanks, Apache Tiles PMC PS. I included the lists I'm part of in this message. Please feel free to forward to other appropriate lists.
Remoting and Facelets
Is anyone using Shale Remoting with Facelets? Since you're supposed to short-circuit the JSF lifecycle from a remoting method, how would you use facelets to render the resulting view? Is it possible? Thanks, Greg

If the filter is logging information, but you don't have log4j configured correctly, that may be why we don't see the logs. I've had that exact problem before and it behaved differently across different versions of Tomcat. My suspicion is that it is related to TilesFilter, but I can't help if I don't know what the exception is :-) When I added a simple log4j.properties file to my web app I saw a lot more helpful information.

It means you're screwed. 8-) That's essentially a linkage error (see the javadocs). I suspect you somehow have incompatible JARs. It looks like you're trying to call the Tiles ComponentContext, but that class is not what the compiler is expecting. What version of Tiles are you using? You must use the standalone version of Tiles with Shale. You're probably using a version of Standalone Tiles that is not compatible with the TilesViewHandler. As Antonio said, Tiles is undergoing some major changes as we speak. I think we've found some temporary stability in the snapshot version so if you update everything from the Shale-Tiles trunk you should be able to get it going. Greg

This is also described by Dick Starr at: Antonio was correct, but I think his point somehow got lost. You don't actually need another definition. You need another JSP page. Let's break it down with a simple example: Suppose you have a definition: definition name=foobar path=/foobar.jsp put name=header value=/header.jsp/ put name=body value=/body.jsp/ put name=footer value=/footer.jsp/ /definition Then here's foobar.jsp: html body tiles:insert name=header/ tiles:insert name=body/ tiles:insert name=footer/ /body /html If you just type /foobar.jsp into your browser Tiles is going to blow up saying you're trying to insert a definition called header which it can't find. It doesn't realize you are already *in* a definition called foobar and you're trying to insert an *attribute* called header because you never invoked Tiles to get the definition called foobar. Therefore Tiles thinks you're looking for a definition called header. To make the above example work you need an intermediate JSP. Let's call it intermediate.jsp. Here's what it would look like in its entirety: %@ taglib uri=http://struts.apache.org/tags-tiles; prefix=tiles % tiles:insert name=foobar/ Then, instead of typing /foobar.jsp in your browser you'd type / intermediate.jsp in your browser. Tiles will go find the definition called foobar, invoke the foobar.jsp template and process your header, body, and footer. In JSF, by doing jsp:forward page=/tiles/layouts/siteLayout.faces/ you are calling /siteLayout.jsp directly - as if you simply typed the name of that page in your browser. You are not using Tiles to invoke the template, you are invoking it directly. Using the example above you need to do something like this: index.jsp: jsp:forward page=/intermediate.jsp/ intermediate.jsp: %@ taglib uri=http://struts.apache.org/tags-tiles; prefix=tiles % tiles:insert name=foobar/ Or in your case, intermediate.jsp would look like this: %@ taglib uri=http://struts.apache.org/tags-tiles; prefix=tiles % tiles:insert name=/mainLayout/ There are two reasons why this is confusing: 1) Tiles has no controller. You would like to be able to invoke Tiles by simply calling the template page, but you can't. You have to either call an intermediate page that invokes the template using the tiles:insert tag to insert the definition. Or you have to use a controller architecture like Struts or JSF that knows how to forward to a Tiles definition. In essence, Struts and JSF are doing the tiles:insert name=/mainLayout/ for you in the TielsRequestProcessor and TilesViewHandler respectively. Those components know how to call into Tiles, get a Tiles definition, and process it. Perhaps you'd like Tiles to have a controller so you could type a URL like http://mywebapp/mainLayout.tiles; and a Servlet or something would insert the mainLayout definition. But we probably won't do that because Tiles was not meant to be a controller, it was meant to work with other controllers like Struts or JSF. In standalone mode it requires an intermediate JSP. Another option for improvement would be to make Tiles work more like Facelets. Facelets does not require the intermediate page. In Facelets you define your template in a page called / siteLayout.xhtml. Then, if you have a page called foobar that extends the template, you directly invoke /foobar.xhtml This page then includes the template. Tiles requires the intermediate page because it works the other way around. Instead of having pages that include templates, Tiles has definitions that extend templates and include pages. I could give an example but it would just make this post a lot longer. 2) The tiles:insert tag is overloaded to mean too many things. tiles:insert can be used to insert definitions, attributes, pages, strings, and probably scrambled eggs :-) So when you see a tiles:insert tag you need to look further to see what context it is in. Is it trying to insert an attribute? a definition? We're trying to figure out the best way to address this issue. It will probably
