 I don't quite agree. Standard users shouldn't see this space. it's something 
 technical and 99% of wiki users don't want/need to see it (and they won't 
 even understand it). So for me this space would need to be hidden from 
 simple users (same as for other tech spaces).
 
 Then we should probably hide them from the WYSIWYG tooIbar too, I guess ;)
 
 Seriously, the space could be blacklisted, but it should be discussed,
 I'm not sure we want to have only admins seing it (personally I see
 that space as being documentation on macros existing in the wiki
 before being a place to create new macros - so not so technical in
 the end).

The reason is simple. Most people come to the wiki as a place where to find 
information (not as contributors) and they'll see the list of spaces listed on 
the home page mixed with spaces containing real content for that wiki. All I 
want is a separation between business content and technical content. I'm fine 
if we have 2 space lists on the home page, one for each type of content. But I 
really don't like to mix the two kind of content.

 Maybe in some distant future we should have an intermediary level
 between Normal users and Admins. BTW do users that chose to be
 Advanced Users in their profile see the blacklisted spaces ?

yes.

 Maybe
 the intermediary level could be this one.

I don't think we need one ATM.

 I'm not sure what the proposal is about exactly.
 
 Well it's not a proposal yet, rather an idea.
 
 Some open questions: Would the macros stay where they are currently located?
 
 If you ask me some should be moved already (like {{spaces}} and
 {{tags}}), since they are located in documents that already have
 another purpose, and thus can not benefit from a potential
 WikiMacroClassSheet (that for example could display the usage of the
 macro and its parameters ; thus becoming a sort of self-contained
 documentation for the held macro)

Well I'm not sure. IMO the dashboard should be moved to a dashboard application 
and that spaces macro could be moved to that dashboard application.
Recent Activity should be moved to an Activity application too and the activity 
macro there too.

Basically I still believe strongly that we need to list all our default XE 
pages and assign them an application. I had done that exercise one and created 
the jira components in XE asa result. Maybe we should revisit this and do this 
mapping now?

 Shouldn't macros stay with their apps?
 
 Yes they should.
 Right now we don't even have a rule for where to put applications
 documents (in their own space ? with a Code suffix ? in the XWiki
 space ? somewhere else ?)

Yes we need to define that too. We've been quite poor in term of wiki content 
organization and as a result I feel that our default wiki content is a bit of a 
disorganized mess. We should improve. Want to lead a proposal?

 I think the (not existing) UI at Macros.WebHome should retrieve and
 list documents from the entire wiki, not just the Macros space.

I agree

 Same
 as the scheduler (I changed that behavior just recently by the way - I
 wanted my application scheduler jobs in my application space, not in
 the Scheduler space - see http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XASCH-56)

Yep seen that and I agree.

 Does it mean a new platform/application in svn?
 
 There is already one : the wikibridge I think, with just one
 document now (the name is not correct though, I agree)

Agree, it's a good place and it should be renamed or merged with another app, 
all depending if we find that there are macros that don't belong to any 
specific app.

 What macros go there? When do we use wiki macros vs java macros (we haven't 
 really decided on this I think)?
 
 I'm quite sure you will not agree, but I would say generic (i.e. not
 tied to a particular application) wiki macros could go there. For
 example {{spaces /}} or even {{activity /}} which goes beyond just the
 dashboard app.

See comment above about the dashboard and activity apps.

 Will java macros also be listed on that home page (they should IMO)?
 
 Yes they should. Maybe not under the exact same form, but they
 definitely should be listed and documented here
 
 
 Generally speaking I'm rather +1 (I'd like macros to stay in their apps 
 though).
 
 Cool. I'm +1 too and +1 to have the possibility for apps to bring

 Hi everyone,

 I am +1 to make stabilization work, on a couple of releases
 I am +1 to have soon a 3.0 release
 And i am +1 on the content vincent propose

 But my point of view is -1 stepping the release family number because the 
 main purpose of what is discussed here is stabilization, and not showing the 
 path of 3.x family.

 Therefore :
 - do we consider a january 2011 release to be stable enough ?
 - stabilization work wouldn'it be leading then to the last 2.x version 
 instead of the first 3.x family version ?
 - is there behind it a consensus on what we will concentrate our effort in 
 3.x versions ? I mean thematics we can talk about.
 - therefore, are we in a situation where we can vote on the global thematics 
 we will develop in 3.x releases ?
 - do we have a clear consensus short list of features that show the path of 
 3.x family ?
 - in consequence of that, is the release content here send a clear message to 
 uneducated publics about what is in this future 3.x versions ?
 - do educated people care this much about release number, that we absolutely 
 have to release a 3.0 with the content presented below ?

 From the committers' point of view, it makes perfect sense for 3.0 to 
be the culmination of the 2.x releases, but I'm not sure the users 
understand this as well, so I'm extending the question to the users list.

Traditionally, proprietary software is developed behind the curtains, 
and it's normal to have one big release every two years, with lots of 
new features and some bugs which get fixed in subsequent bugfix 
releases. Marketing comes mostly from the proprietary software world, so 
from a marketing point of view, this is the normal way releases work.

In the open source world, since the development is done in the open, it 
doesn't make sense to stash code away in a repository and only release 
it once every two years. Still, most big projects use a release 
versioning scheme similar to the proprietary products, but with a slight 
difference which deeply changes the meaning. While proprietary products 
use only a number (3, 8, 2010...), with eventual bugfixes versions (SP2, 
5.5), open source usually has 3 numbers in its versions, with the 
following meanings:

The first number changes rarely, and when it does, it signals a critical 
change, like a complete rewrite of the codebase, a change of paradigm, 
or major new features. The second number is the one that actually 
identifies a release. The third number is the bugfix version. So, when 
we say that PHP 5.3.2 was released, we actually say that version 3 of 
PHP5, which is a different thing than PHP4, has been released again, 
giving the second bugfix release. KDE 4.5.1 means version 5 of KDE4 saw 
its first bugfix release.

Another tendency is for open source software to linger towards a major 
release. For example, lots of software have a lot of releases before 
1.0, going nearer and nearer: 0.6, 0.9, 0.9.9... And everybody knows 
that 0.x comes before 1.0, and it's not just a bugfix version of an 
imaginary 0.0 release.

A different topic is that of agile development, with very short releases 
(2-3 weeks) for which traditional version number make no sense, since 
such a product would reach version 42 in a couple of years. Either an 
identifier, such as the SCM version number is used, or a continuous 
counter (v1.42) is used. Since the software evolves in a fluid manner, 
without a breakthrough version coming out of the regular releases, a 
major version is released when the current features are stable and 
they mix well together in a coherent product. Since releases come so 
frequently, it's normal for users to be split into two categories: those 
that follow the releases and know how the software is evolving, and 
those that only monitor the major releases, and which see all the 
continuous improvements at once.

While XWiki Enterprise is used in the enterprise environment, and it is 
backed by commercial companies, it is a true open source project, 
following an open source release model, so I don't think that a 
proprietary product release scheme is suited.

Our development/release style is closer to the agile development 
practice, albeit with mixed release types. In the future, once the core 
is more stable than it is now, we'd like to move even closer to a full 
agile release process, with 2-3 weeks between final releases. Thus, I 
believe that the last release versioning strategy is the best for XWiki 
Enterprise.

Note that we're already using this strategy in a more obvious way for 
smaller modules (applications, skins, tools), where we do have 1.32 as a 
stable version number.

Also note that although 1.9 was followed by 2.0, this was just a 
coincidence, and not a natural version evolution, since we also felt 
that the code was mature enough to receive a major number bump, but it 
could just as well have been followed by a 1.10.

So, there are two different

[xwiki-users] This object is currently locked by - section editing

2010-11-03 Thread Piotr Dziubecki
Hello :)

I configured my XWiki instance in the following way:



#-# This parameter will activate the sectional editing.
xwiki.section.edit=1

#-# This parameter controls the depth of sections that have section editing.
#-# By default level 1 and level 2 sections have section editing.
xwiki.section.depth=6


I have many users working on documents simultaneously and in order to minimize 
document locking and possible 
merging I encourage them to edit sections/paragraphs instead. I noticed that 
when, for instance, two users 
edit different sections within the same page, the latter gets the message:

This object is currently locked by user1

I checked and it's possible to force editing and save both of concurrent 
changes to that document, but the 
message itself is a bit confusing to the users. I'm asking if it's possible to 
change xwiki configuration to 
not display that message when the users edit different paragraphs within the 
same page ?

Piotr

Yes, we miss conventions on the naming. Moreover, AFAIR something is not
coherent between class wizard and livetable macro : The livetable macro
displays the template document because its name which is given by the class
wizard is not matching the one the livetable macro is expecting (and that
would be excluded).

  Maybe in some distant future we should have an intermediary level
  between Normal users and Admins. BTW do users that chose to be
  Advanced Users in their profile see the blacklisted spaces ?
 
 
  yes.
 
 
  Maybe
  the intermediary level could be this one.
 
 
  I don't think we need one ATM.
 
 
  I'm not sure what the proposal is about exactly.
 
  Well it's not a proposal yet, rather an idea.
 
 
  Some open questions: Would the macros stay where they are currently
 located?
 
  If you ask me some should be moved already (like {{spaces}} and
  {{tags}}), since they are located in documents that already have
  another purpose, and thus can not benefit from a potential
  WikiMacroClassSheet (that for example could display the usage of the
  macro and its parameters ; thus becoming a sort of self-contained
  documentation for the held macro)
 
 
  Well I'm not sure. IMO the dashboard should be moved to a dashboard
 application and that spaces macro could be moved to that dashboard
 application.
  Recent Activity should be moved to an Activity application too and the
 activity macro there too.
 
  Basically I still believe strongly that we need to list all our default
 XE pages and assign them an application. I had done that exercise one and
 created the jira components in XE asa result. Maybe we should revisit this
 and do this mapping now?
 
 
  Shouldn't macros stay with their apps?
 
  Yes they should.
  Right now we don't even have a rule for where to put applications
  documents (in their own space ? with a Code suffix ? in the XWiki
  space ? somewhere else ?)
 
 
  Yes we need to define that too. We've been quite poor in term of wiki
 content organization and as a result I feel that our default wiki content is
 a bit of a disorganized mess. We should improve. Want to lead a proposal?
 
 
  I think the (not existing) UI at Macros.WebHome should retrieve and
  list documents from the entire wiki, not just the Macros space.

  This polishing would empower a standard user to use this XWiki
 advanced

  I don't quite agree. Standard users shouldn't see this space. it's
 something technical and 99% of wiki users don't want/need to see it (and
 they won't even understand it). So for me this space would need to be hidden
 from simple users (same as for other tech spaces).
 
  Then we should probably hide them from the WYSIWYG tooIbar too, I guess
 ;)
 
  Seriously, the space could be blacklisted, but it should be discussed,
  I'm not sure we want to have only admins seing it (personally I see
  that space as being documentation on macros existing in the wiki
  before being a place to create new macros - so not so technical in
  the end).
 
 
  The reason is simple. Most people come to the wiki as a place where to
 find information (not as contributors) and they'll see the list of spaces
 listed on the home page mixed with spaces containing real content for that
 wiki. All I want is a separation between business content and technical
 content. I'm fine if we have 2 space lists on the home page, one for each
 type of content. But I really don't like to mix the two kind of content.
 

 This categorization would also welcome here. It is been hard to me to
 explain to regular users what is the difference between business
 content and technical content as Vicent called that different nature
 documents. Even talking with tech-skilled people, is by no means easy to
 explain that one thing are contents produced by the community they are

[xwiki-users] WYSIWYG plugin missing in 2.5?

2010-11-03 Thread Werner Greßhoff
Hello,

I've just updated a 2.4 test installation to 2.5 and when accessing the
first page I got an exception: the WYSIWYG plugin is missing and so the
WYSIWYG editor is disabled. I guessed I should find it in
xwiki-web-gwt-wysiwyg-server-2.5.jar but there is no editor class
included. In the older versions the class was available?!
Is there a quick fix available?

No I think it could be more than that.

You could have spaces of type Content, of type User space, of type
Application or Application code, etc.

 Hi everyone,

 I am +1 to make stabilization work, on a couple of releases

 But my point of view is -1 stepping the release family number because the 
 main purpose of what is discussed here is stabilization, and not showing the 
 path of 3.x family.

 Therefore :
 - do we consider a january 2011 release to be stable enough ?
 - stabilization work wouldn'it be leading then to the last 2.x version 
 instead of the first 3.x family version ?
 - is there behind it a consensus on what we will concentrate our effort in 
 3.x versions ? I mean thematics we can talk about.
 - therefore, are we in a situation where we can vote on the global thematics 
 we will develop in 3.x releases ?
 - do we have a clear consensus short list of features that show the path of 
 3.x family ?
 - in consequence of that, is the release content here send a clear message 
 to uneducated publics about what is in this future 3.x versions ?
 - do educated people care this much about release number, that we absolutely 
 have to release a 3.0 with the content presented below ?
 

  From the committers' point of view, it makes perfect sense for 3.0 to 
 be the culmination of the 2.x releases, but I'm not sure the users 
 understand this as well, so I'm extending the question to the users list.

 Traditionally, proprietary software is developed behind the curtains, 
 and it's normal to have one big release every two years, with lots of 
 new features and some bugs which get fixed in subsequent bugfix 
 releases. Marketing comes mostly from the proprietary software world, so 
 from a marketing point of view, this is the normal way releases work.

 In the open source world, since the development is done in the open, it 
 doesn't make sense to stash code away in a repository and only release 
 it once every two years. Still, most big projects use a release 
 versioning scheme similar to the proprietary products, but with a slight 
 difference which deeply changes the meaning. While proprietary products 
 use only a number (3, 8, 2010...), with eventual bugfixes versions (SP2, 
 5.5), open source usually has 3 numbers in its versions, with the 
 following meanings:

 The first number changes rarely, and when it does, it signals a critical 
 change, like a complete rewrite of the codebase, a change of paradigm, 
 or major new features. The second number is the one that actually 
 identifies a release. The third number is the bugfix version. So, when 
 we say that PHP 5.3.2 was released, we actually say that version 3 of 
 PHP5, which is a different thing than PHP4, has been released again, 
 giving the second bugfix release. KDE 4.5.1 means version 5 of KDE4 saw 
 its first bugfix release.

 Another tendency is for open source software to linger towards a major 
 release. For example, lots of software have a lot of releases before 
 1.0, going nearer and nearer: 0.6, 0.9, 0.9.9... And everybody knows 
 that 0.x comes before 1.0, and it's not just a bugfix version of an 
 imaginary 0.0 release.

 A different topic is that of agile development, with very short releases 
 (2-3 weeks) for which traditional version number make no sense, since 
 such a product would reach version 42 in a couple of years. Either an 
 identifier, such as the SCM version number is used, or a continuous 
 counter (v1.42) is used. Since the software evolves in a fluid manner, 
 without a breakthrough version coming out of the regular releases, a 
 major version is released when the current features are stable and 
 they mix well together in a coherent product. Since releases come so 
 frequently, it's normal for users to be split into two categories: those 
 that follow the releases and know how the software is evolving, and 
 those that only monitor the major releases, and which see all the 
 continuous improvements at once.

 While XWiki Enterprise is used in the enterprise environment, and it is 
 backed by commercial companies, it is a true open source project, 
 following an open source release model, so I don't think that a 
 proprietary product release scheme is suited.

 Our development/release style is closer to the agile development 
 practice, albeit with mixed release types. In the future, once the core 
 is more stable than it is now, we'd like to move even closer to a full 
 agile release process, with 2-3 weeks between final releases. Thus, I 
 believe that the last release versioning strategy is the best for XWiki 
 Enterprise.

 Note that we're already using this strategy in a more obvious way for 
 smaller modules (applications, skins, tools), where we do have 1.32 as a 
 stable version number.

 Also note that although 1.9 was followed by 2.0, this was just a 
 coincidence, and not a natural version evolution, since we also felt 
 that the code was mature enough to receive a major number

Then the NPE occurs at the following line:

I think this could be caused by a XWiki.WatchListClass object, with a

2010-11-03 Thread Chris Wagner

Hello, 

I am having some issues with the order by clause in HQL - the following
query: 

$xwiki.searchDocuments(where doc.hidden = false and doc.id='${doc.parent}'
order by doc.title asc) 

is returning the expected set of documents, but the title order is erratic.
The documents are reordered, but it is not alphabetized as anticipated.
Instead, there are several alphabetized spurts -- for example, I have 'A',
'C', 'P', ... 'A', 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', etc. Within one of these spans,
no items appear out of order, but the 'span' separation is not expected or
desired. Is there a common issue that I could be overlooking? 

Thank you, 
Chris

Re: [xwiki-users] Create application similar to attach file application

2010-11-03 Thread Abel Solórzano Astorga
Hi, I finally finish a little application that let you attach files to an
XWiki page and add, edit or delete a comment for the attachment. I didn't
have much time to create a page for the app on the xwiki server. Maybe in
the future. But I want to put the application online in case someone need
that functionality (I know Ricardo need it :) ). The xar file of the File
Storage application (I called like that) is at
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3688604/file-storage.xar. By the way you need to
have the ModalBox Application installed. The ModalBox application can be
found at
http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/ModalBoxApplication. Let
me know if you have any doubt or comment.

  need to do a similar XWiki application.

 Great to know I've been of any help! :-)

 BTW, have you then manage to get this application working? Are you
 planning to share it with the community? At least it will be helpful for
 me to get fileUploadPlugin or an application allowing to add
 descriptions to the uploaded files. Thanks!

 Cheers,

 Ricardo

There are two types of titles.

Document titles are stored in the database as the doc.title field, and 
they are editable in the editor above the content.

Display titles are computed from the document title, first heading from 
the content, or the document name, depending on which one exists, in 
this order. Unfortunately it is not possible to see the display title in 
queries.

I'm not sure, but I think that your problem is caused by this difference 
between display and document titles. The first set of documents has an 
empty document title, but in the UI you see their computed display 
title. The second set of documents is correctly ordered by their 
persisted document title.
