Re: WebObjects classloader fun.
You need to use reflection to do that so you can poke at the underlying dictionary directly, which isn't pretty, but it works. Yikes ... I meant via API.

RE: Anyone have a phone number formatter?
Message formatting is hard with Exchange WebMail (sucks) but here is a method
we use to strip out the garbage and then submit the different parsed values for
area code, number and extension.
/** assumes the phone number is (111) 222- extension 444 which we
reduce to 111222444 and then split up */
public void setFullPhoneNumer( String value )
{
if ( value != null )
{
/** remove everything except numbers */
String reduced = value.replaceAll(^1|\\D+,
Const.EMPTY_STRING);
int len = reduced.length();
if ( len = 10 )
{
validateTakeValueForKeyPath( reduced.substring( 0, 3 ),
phoneAreaCode );
validateTakeValueForKeyPath(
reduced.replaceAll(^(\\d{3})(\\d{3})(\\d{4})(\\d*), $2$3), phoneNumber);
// this will insert a dash in the phone number, depends
how you want to store the value
//
reduced.replaceAll(^(\\d{3})(\\d{3})(\\d{4})(\\d*), $2-$3), phoneNumber);
if ( len 10 )
validateTakeValueForKeyPath( reduced.substring(
10 ), phoneExtension );
}
else
throw new NSValidation.ValidationException( Invalid
phone number );
}

Subject: Re: Anyone have a phone number formatter?
If you just want output formatting (and not input parsing), it can be
as simple as this:
public StringBuffer format(Object object, StringBuffer
stringBuffer, FieldPosition fieldPosition)
{
if (object instanceof Number)
{
stringBuffer.append(((Number)object).intValue() == 2 ?
Y : );
}
return stringBuffer;
}
/**
* @throw RuntimeException parseObject is not implemented
*/
public Object parseObject(String arg0, ParsePosition arg1)
{
throw new RuntimeException(parseObject is not implemented);
}
This is an output formatter that takes a number formats this to Y
if the value is 2 and to an empty string for all other values. Don't
ask, legacy data.

You are not properly locking all of the editing contexts and / or
violating EOF Commandments (Google that term for the details).
er.extensions.ERXApplication (ERXApplication.java:904) - Exception

com.webobjects.eoaccess.EODatabaseOperation {_dbSnapshot = {};
That last bit, _dbSnapshot = {}, is the clue. EOF has no snapshot
for the object you are trying to update. You have trashed the EOF state.

Re: Network change
In case it is not obvious, you need to edit /System/Library/WebObjects/JavaApplications/wotaskd.woa/Contents/ Resources/Properties and add this line: WOHost=localhost And, of course, restart wotaskd after that.

Spell checkers
Has anyone had experience with adding a spell checker to a WO application? I have a trial version of JSpell Evolution from The Solution Café but can't get it to work with my application. It comes as a WAR file. I put the WAR file into my JBoss deployment directory. When JBoss expands it, there are several Javascript files which are referenced by their test HTML file, which is in the same directory. That test file works correctly. The rest of the WAR file is the piece that actually does the spell checking. You are just supposed to add the following lines to your HTML. script LANGUAGE=JavaScript TYPE=text/javascript SRC=jspellSettings.js http://myserver:7080/jspellEvolution/jspellSettings.js CHARSET=ISO-8859-1/script script LANGUAGE=JavaScript TYPE=text/javascript SRC=jspellEvolution.js http://myserver:7080/jspellEvolution/jspellEvolution.js CHARSET=ISO-8859-1/script But the app doesn't seem to be able to find the Javascript files, because nothing happens. So I copied these two files out of the deployment directory and into a directory in my area and changed the references to the following. script LANGUAGE=JavaScript TYPE=text/javascript SRC=/home/sks/jspellSettings.js http://myserver:7080/jspellEvolution/jspellSettings.js CHARSET=ISO-8859-1/script script LANGUAGE=JavaScript TYPE=text/javascript SRC=/home/sks/jspellEvolution.js http://myserver:7080/jspellEvolution/jspellEvolution.js CHARSET=ISO-8859-1/script That didn't work either, so I tried referencing them as a URL. My JBoss runs off port 7080, and if I enter that URL in my browser, it finds the Javascript file. script LANGUAGE=JavaScript TYPE=text/javascript SRC=http://myserver:7080/jspellEvolution/jspellSettings.js; CHARSET=ISO-8859-1/script script LANGUAGE=JavaScript TYPE=text/javascript SRC=http://myserver:7080/jspellEvolution/jspellEvolution.js; CHARSET=ISO-8859-1/script No luck. If anyone has some advice on how to get this to work, or knows of another product that has worked with WO, I would be most appreciative. Thanks.

Re: Best non-Apple platform for WO?
Ken, I've recently deployed some of our applications across a set of Linux systems in a three tier config web, application server and database. Standard Dell hardware, and I used CentOS 4.4 as the operating system, with Apache 2.2 and MySQL 5. I used the instructions on the Wikibook for deployment onto FreeBSD, as the Linux install instructions only seems to cover 5.2. I used the Apache 2.2 adaptor from Wonder. http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Programming:WebObjects/Web_Applications/ Deployment/FreeBSD_WO5.3 It was all surprisingly quick and painless. The only points that took a little bit of time were: - Apache 2.2 and MySQL 5.0.37 are not immediately available in the default packages for CentOS, but a little bit of Googling found an alternative source for those - I had a few challenges with collecting the right frameworks and so on for the install from my development machine (OS X client) - probably because I have the accumulated crud of ages on there. Basing the install on OS X Server worked really well.

DBUnit configuration WOLips
I have a small xml file representing a dataset for DBUnit. During
the build,
I believe that I should add this file to the /Content/Resources
directory of the .woa
Can I add an ant task to the build.xml file that will do this in a
handy way, then
use code like the following (obtained from Chuck Hill) in my test class:
protected IDataSet getDataSet() throws Exception {
InputStream dataSet = NSBundle.mainBundle
().inputStreamForResourcePath(name);
if (dataSet == null) {
throw new RuntimeException(Can't locate resource +
name + in bundle + NSBundle.mainBundle().name());
}
return new FlatXmlDataSet(dataSet);
}
What is a best-practice way to set all of this up?

Re: DBUnit configuration WOLips
The same as any other resource. There is a menu option to Include as
Resource under the WOLips context menu. Or (safer IMHO), edit
woproject/resources.include.patternset and add one of these
**/small.xml
**/*.xml
The first is more specific, the second very generic, perhaps too
generic.

Generate HTML from a WOComponent programmatically
Hi,
I want to be able to generate HTML code from a WOComponent
programmatically and insert the response into a String (to be display
into a parent component).
I tried something like this :
public class ParentComponent extends WOComponent {
//A WOString will display the result
public String getText()
{
while ( iNeedMoreSubcomponent )
{
String htmlFromSubComponent =
generateHTMLOfSubcomponent();
... code where I insert the result of the sub component into my
text ...
}
return text;
}
//This sub component will contain component action and the result
will be inserted into the text...
public String generateHTMLOfSubcomponent()
{
WOComponent subComponent = pageWithName(SubComponent);
String chaineHTML =
resultAjax.generateResponse().contentString();
return chaineHTML;
}
}
But the problem with this example is the value of context().page()
(was ParentComponent), who is replaced by the SubComponent (in my
case this will be a problem). If I create a new Context for the sub
component, I will lost my session.
Is there a way to do this or I'm better to change strategy?
Thanks in advance.

WOForm Question

I can't find detailed documentation on WOForm so here's my question (please point me to any useful documentation other than the WOBuiler Dynamic Components Reference): I have three entities Routing, RoutingStep and Component they are related as follows: - to-one = to-many Routing = RoutingStep = Component Component - RoutingStep - Routing Ideally, I'd like to be able to edit them all-together in one form, but I'm not sure if it is possible or not. This goes way beyond having multiple submit buttons. Here's an example of the stucture: Routing -RoutingStep 1 of Routing --Component 1 of RoutingStep 1 --Component 2 of RoutingStep 1 --Component 3 of RoutingStep 1 -RoutingStep 2 of Routing --Component 1 of RoutingStep 2 --Component 2 of RoutingStep 2 --Component 3 of RoutingStep 2 -RoutingStep Etc, etc, etc. Each entity, of course, has it's own attributes and other to-one relationships. Without being able to nest WOForms inside HTML tables, it makes layout difficult, and I can't find documentation on if more than one form is allowed on one page, etc. How should I handle this?

Re: Generate HTML from a WOComponent programmatically

Yes I know ;-)
Why not use a WORepetition and some custom components? What are
you trying to do that can't be done that way?
Its because I have already a Java class who can apply a complex
transformation to my text, I just have to give tags to insert (like
HTML, XML etc.) and this class know how to process the text to
present the result. I just wanted to reuse it.
But if programmatically generate the HTML of subcomponent don't seem
a reasonable thing to do or its not easy, I will go for another
strategy (I have a plan B for using WORepetition and custom
component :-) but will need more work :-( ).
Thanks Chuck.

Hi,
I want to be able to generate HTML code from a WOComponent

display into a parent component).
I tried something like this :

//A WOString will display the result
public String getText()
{
while ( iNeedMoreSubcomponent )
{
String htmlFromSubComponent =
generateHTMLOfSubcomponent();
... code where I insert the result of the sub component into my

//This sub component will contain component action and the result
will be inserted into the text...
public String generateHTMLOfSubcomponent()
{
WOComponent subComponent = pageWithName(SubComponent);
String chaineHTML =
resultAjax.generateResponse().contentString();
return chaineHTML;
}
}
But the problem with this example is the value of context().page()
(was ParentComponent), who is replaced by the SubComponent (in my
case this will be a problem). If I create a new Context for the
sub component, I will lost my session.
Is there a way to do this or I'm better to change strategy?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Generate HTML from a WOComponent programmatically
override appendToResponse and do:
WOResponse newResponse = new WOResponse();
super.appendToResponse(newResponse, wocontext);
String yourChildrenAsText = newResponse.contentString();
String transformedText = // perform your transformation on
yourChildrenAsText
originalResponse.appendContentString(transformedText);
I have no idea what happens if you try to do this from something
outside of appendToResponse, though.

Component rendered in java vs. via component
Hello - I am now using javascript with YUI and I have a need to render the outputted html where it is normally rendered via one of my components. My normal component basically wraps around the text and creates an href that fires a method. Now I need to render this in java to fit in my javascript. What is the approach here?

Re: Anyone have a phone number formatter?

I have surmised that I am supposed to use java.text.format in some fashion, but I am having trouble finding any examples. Does anyone have any examples they can share, or can point me to some better info than the java docs on the class. Just wanted to thank everyone for sending examples of how to create a formatter, especially to Dan whose phone formatter was very close to what I needed. A few minor modifications and everything worked great. The gist of the solution for future reference is to extend java.text.format and implement the parseObject method and the format method. The parseObject gets the data from the form field prior to it getting stored in the DB, and the format method is called to create the display string used when pulling data out of the DB. ___ Do not post admin requests to the list.
