Well, as I was waiting for your reply, I posted it to my blog, is it in good
faith if I make a link from the page of the app to it?

 It's a wiki, feel free to edit and add information to it as long as you do
 so in good faith and bring relevant information :-)


Thanks for clarifying this, it is formed as a wiki but it could have access
rights reserved (XWiki gives the option).




  I am sorry but I not familiar yet with
  the names of people in XWiki and I don't know if you are one of them.


 I'm definitely one of them - as every member of this community is. I
 simply happen to be posting a bit more often than most other people around
 here ;-)

 hmmm, where do you find the time? someone pays you to do that? can they pay
others too?


  I also
  have no idea where to place this, just as a comment in the page you give
 me
  or there is a more specific space/page for TODO list?


 Well, if your code works for all databases the best thing to do would be to
 update the application's XAR on the website. To do so you would need to
 export the application from your wiki and replace the current one with
 yours.

I have not tested all databases, there is the possibility that the two
changes I made have to be like this only for Oracle since not so many
Databases use CLOBS for larg strings (other use text)


 You can use
 http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/ImportExportApplicationto
 export the updated TODO application from your current wiki. You'll need to
 include all the pages from the original XAR file.

 You can then upload it here:

 http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/TodoApplicationDownloads#Attachmentsonce
 you've made sure it works fine (by installing it on a local wiki for
 instance).


Well, I am intrigued, I will try to find some time to test around and see
but it will be a slow process. In the meantime, others could try it, isn't
there anyone else using TODO list app?


 Please let me know if you need additional help.

 Looking forward your first contribution,

 Guillaume

Hi all,
   
I have been trying for the last day to put the TODO app in my wiki

  it
kept on failing to show the mytodo list in the panel. I use Oracle
 for
backend so I thought it was that the problem. Here is the panel's
 code
corrected to work in my case (XWiki 1.9.3, Tomacat 6, Oracle XE 11):
#panelheader('My Todos')
   
#set ($hql = , BaseObject as obj, StringProperty as prop1,
LargeStringProperty as prop2 where obj.name=doc.fullName and
obj.className='XWiki.TodoClass' and obj.name 
   'XWiki.TodoClassTemplate'
and obj.id=prop1.id.id and prop1.id.name='Status'
and prop1.value  'Finished' and obj.id=prop2.id.id
and prop2.id.name ='Assignee' and prop2.value like '$context.user'
 order by doc.date desc)
   
#foreach ($todo in $xwiki.searchDocuments($hql, 5, 0))
* [$todo]
#end
#panelfooter()
   
The big difference is the LargeStringProperty (Instead of
  StringProperty
used in the XAR) and the like instead of = used to match the value.
   
For the LargeStringProperty it is strange for me that someone chose a
   CLOB
to store user names but... maybe because of the class hierarchy
  involved
   in
the user name. Then again, how can this work even without oracle?
   
For the like, well, oracle atleast will not even bother checking a
  string
against a stream. Yes the words are phonetically close but oracle
doesn't care about phonetics.
   
I hope others out there will enjoy this helpful app.
  
  
   Glad you liked it :-)
  
   It would be cool if you updated the page on code.xwiki.org explaining
  how
   you made the app work under Oracle.

That's a good start :-)

However, as Vincent stated it it's even better if you post it right on

I'm an employee of XWiki SAS, the company that finances continuing

In the past we've hired committers on the project to work at the company.
XWiki SAS is currently looking for a system administrator, feel free to

However please note that this doesn't give me special status in the

I find this absolutely reasonable justification. I will create a page then
and put it there. Then I will link the TODOs page with the new one. How does
that sound?

Well it's easier if people can find all the information they need on
the xwiki.org wiki. Also if your blog disappears for any reason (you
switch blogs, etc) then the link will be broken.

You could use the existing page at

You could mention that the first version was done for a TSS article
