Does Apple stop to use WebObjects for its internal tools?

Hi,

The new 'the Sales and Trend reporting module' of iTunes Connect is develop 
with JSF instead of WebObjects.
Does Apple stop to use WebObjects for its internal tools?

Does someone know what is powering the new Ping social network ?

Apple develop stuff with a wide variety of tools based upon available developer 
resources.  The iTunes Store and MobileMe suck up virtually all the WO 
developers that Apple can find and they then turn to other technologies.

Everything that I know of within Apple that is mission critical and in-house 
developed is WO and from all that I have heard, it is likely to remain that way.

Re: Does Apple stop to use WebObjects for its internal tools?

2010-09-10 Thread Mike Schrag
Here's my slightly less grumpy response :)

Apple, like any smart company, makes technology decisions based on lots of 
variables -- what technology makes sense? what technology doesn't make sense? 
what is the expertise of our current staffing? what are the goals for the 
project? etc ... I love WO, but I'm also the first to admit that WO and EOF 
aren't the right fit for every problem. There are parts of WOF and EOF that 
drive me crazy, and there are parts that are amazing. I also don't think that 
being WO inherently makes you scalable any more than I think being a Rails app 
makes you inherently unscalable. It's just like the NoSQL vs Relational debate. 
Are relational databases dead? No. That's just silly. But do NoSQL databases 
have a place? Absolutely -- they bring value to a certain set of problems that 
relational doesn't address well. Likewise, Apple has public web properties that 
are static html, php, struts, jsf, jsp, sproutcore, webobjects, and I'm sure 
others and there are lots of different reasons in each of those cases why 
decisions were made one way or another. In any complex system, you're probably 
going to end up with a mix of technologies. As far as details, you're just 
not going to get them because Apple doesn't roll that way.

Re: Renaming instanceIdKey - Why Does This Work?

2010-09-10 Thread Brook, James
Running more than one WO application on the same domain with the session and 
instance cookie paths set to / definitely brings complications. We only do it 
because for two applications we want to expose 'user friendly' URLs using 
Apache rewrite rules. As Ben mentions, because the adaptor matches the instance 
cookie name based on a substring, you need to be really careful that your new 
cookie name does not contain the string woinst. It may even appear to work 
but the application is likely to be using the instance cookie for the other app 
or apps.

We are using a rewrite condition and rule to read in the cookie, get the 
instance number and put it into the request URL. This works because the adaptor 
takes instance IDs from the URL in preference to the cookie. The rewrite idea 
comes from this blog: http://tgwbd.org/blog/2009/11/01/the-duke-of-url-part-3/ 
and looks like this:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} custom_ins=([-0-9][0-9]*)
RewriteRule ^/friendlyUrl/(.*)/?$ /cgi-bin/WebObjects/AppName.woa/%1/$1/ 
[PT,L]

There still seems to be a problem with component actions though, because if the 
component request handler sees the instance ID in the URL, but no session ID, 
it messes up the parsing of the URL because it is looking for a component name 
in the URL. I guess we could solve this by subclassing the request handler or 
creating a more sophisticated rewrite rule to handle session IDs too.

Anyway, *beware* when overriding WO's session and instance cookie stuff: 
WOSession.domainForIDCookies(), WOApplication.instanceIdKey() and 
WOApplication.sessionIdKey().

On 9 Sep 2010, at 17:15, Lawson, Ben wrote:

 You're right of course Chuck, turns out our instanceIdKey had a trailing 
 woinst. The woinst value is looked up in the cookie header by doing a 
 string match, so as long as you have woinst appended to the cookie name in 
 the Application class it works fine. This of course becomes problematic when 
 you have multiple applications storing IDs in cookies under similar paths (or 
 really, any other session creating application with a less specific path).
 
 We'll have to get around it with some re-writes, not so awful and at least we 
 know what was biting us now.
 
 Thanks,

 It appears to work, but something else was causing this.  I don't recall

 in fact not really working.
 
 I think the API for renaming woinst is just wrong (wrong as in can not and 
 does not work).  Renaming wosid does work.

 Hi List,
 
 A strange question sure, but for curiosity's sake I'm trying to understand 
 how the WebObjects adaptor maintains a mapping of instance ID cookie names 
 to applications. Looking at the source it looks like woinst is hardcoded 
 into the adaptor in config.h, and I can't find anywhere else the 
 INST_COOKIE var is set. Then in _collectRequestInformation in transaction.c 
 the cookie header is searched for the INST_COOKIE value (woinst) to 
 determine which app instance to send the request to 
 (_collectRequestInformation writes to memory the app instance specified for 
 the handleRequest function to look up later).
 
 So I'm left wondering how the adaptor knows where to fetch the the instance 
 ID from to forward requests to. I can see that it works, requests that 
 create sessions with a custom instanceIdKey continue to find their way to 
 the correct application instance, but why? Obviously I'm missing something, 
 would love a hand figuring out what!

Re: Renaming instanceIdKey - Why Does This Work?

2010-09-10 Thread Brook, James
Actually, there is not a problem with component action URLs at all. The rewrite 
rule we used was incorrect. The trailing slash that we had added breaks the 
component action URL parsing. It should read:

 RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} custom_ins=([-0-9][0-9]*)
 RewriteRule ^/friendlyUrl/(.*)/?$ /cgi-bin/WebObjects/AppName.woa/%1/$1 
 [PT,L]

On 10 Sep 2010, at 15:44, Brook, James wrote:

 Running more than one WO application on the same domain with the session and 
 instance cookie paths set to / definitely brings complications. We only do 
 it because for two applications we want to expose 'user friendly' URLs using 
 Apache rewrite rules. As Ben mentions, because the adaptor matches the 
 instance cookie name based on a substring, you need to be really careful that 
 your new cookie name does not contain the string woinst. It may even appear 
 to work but the application is likely to be using the instance cookie for the 
 other app or apps.
 
 We are using a rewrite condition and rule to read in the cookie, get the 
 instance number and put it into the request URL. This works because the 
 adaptor takes instance IDs from the URL in preference to the cookie. The 
 rewrite idea comes from this blog: 
 http://tgwbd.org/blog/2009/11/01/the-duke-of-url-part-3/ and looks like this:
 
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} custom_ins=([-0-9][0-9]*)
 RewriteRule ^/friendlyUrl/(.*)/?$ /cgi-bin/WebObjects/AppName.woa/%1/$1/ 
 [PT,L]
 
 There still seems to be a problem with component actions though, because if 
 the component request handler sees the instance ID in the URL, but no session 
 ID, it messes up the parsing of the URL because it is looking for a component 
 name in the URL. I guess we could solve this by subclassing the request 
 handler or creating a more sophisticated rewrite rule to handle session IDs 
 too.
 
 Anyway, *beware* when overriding WO's session and instance cookie stuff: 
 WOSession.domainForIDCookies(), WOApplication.instanceIdKey() and 
 WOApplication.sessionIdKey().

 You're right of course Chuck, turns out our instanceIdKey had a trailing 
 woinst. The woinst value is looked up in the cookie header by doing a 
 string match, so as long as you have woinst appended to the cookie name in 
 the Application class it works fine. This of course becomes problematic when 
 you have multiple applications storing IDs in cookies under similar paths 
 (or really, any other session creating application with a less specific 
 path).
 
 We'll have to get around it with some re-writes, not so awful and at least 
 we know what was biting us now.

 I think the API for renaming woinst is just wrong (wrong as in can not and

 Hi List,
 
 A strange question sure, but for curiosity's sake I'm trying to understand 
 how the WebObjects adaptor maintains a mapping of instance ID cookie names 
 to applications. Looking at the source it looks like woinst is hardcoded 
 into the adaptor in config.h, and I can't find anywhere else the 
 INST_COOKIE var is set. Then in _collectRequestInformation in 
 transaction.c the cookie header is searched for the INST_COOKIE value 
 (woinst) to determine which app instance to send the request to 
 (_collectRequestInformation writes to memory the app instance specified 
 for the handleRequest function to look up later).
 
 So I'm left wondering how the adaptor knows where to fetch the the 
 instance ID from to forward requests to. I can see that it works, requests 
 that create sessions with a custom instanceIdKey continue to find their 
 way to the correct application instance, but why? Obviously I'm missing 
 something, would love a hand figuring out what!

Please define dying. Apple outside support of WO is dying, the community, 
while it's smaller than in 2000-2003, is still alive and Project Wonder is 
keeping everything alive. I think it's just a migration from

Bah, COBOL, Perl and others techs are still in use... When I got out of college 
(1995), nobody wanted to do COBOL or PowerHouse (ah, the memories), now people 
who get out of school only want to do PHP, .Net or RoR, and look at 
Java/Perl/older stuff like we were viewing COBOL and older stuff back in the

PHP is the Visual Basic of the Net. A lot of people are using it because they 
took a course or learn about it at school. The amount of really good PHP devs 
is the same amount of really good Java devs. So yes, you can find low cost PHP 
devs for low needs, but a good PHP dev will cost the same as a WO or Java dev.

Re: Does Apple stop to use WebObjects for its internal tools?

2010-09-10 Thread Mike Schrag
I had a whole response written and pulled the ejection handle, but now that 
everyone's playing, I want in :)

 I can not say for sure, but it is incredibly difficult to get folks who have 
 expertise in WebObjects anywhere, at low cost.  
 Why would you want them at low cost?
Yeah, I agree -- Just because you can hire a homeless guy off the street that 
knows J2EE doesn't mean that you want him writing software for you. I would 
also clearly differentiate between experience and expertise. Expertise 
costs money in any framework because expertise means lots of experience. That 
said, anyone worth their salt isn't hung up by frameworks. Give a good engineer 
a new framework and they'll be using it within a couple weeks. In my 
experience, what costs you money is teaching them all your business logic and 
domain knowledge, and that overhead is relatively high regardless of your 
framework. You really think you couldn't roll into a Rails shop tomorrow and be 
reasonably productive within a couple of weeks?

 It also has been a dying technology since NeXT got Apple back.
 I disagree.  Stable, yes.  Dying, no.
I would disagree even more, but they just can't see it.

 Also, there is no reason for a large company that has staffing requirements, 
 to not use technologies that have broader exposure in advance to incoming 
 technology professionals
I also disagree with this. This same reasoning would have Apple desktop apps 
written in Java right now and iPhone programming in .NET or something. If I 
were an engineering manager, I would care about what technology is going to 
solve my problem and make my staff as productive as possible. I honestly don't 
care that much about whether they know WO or not. If you honestly can't learn a 
new framework enough to be working on maintaining an existing app within a few 
weeks, you need to find yourself another industry. Framework is a bigger piece 
of the pie when you bootstrap a new app, and the people you're trying to get at 
a lower cost aren't the ones that are probably doing that for you -- your 
senior guys are laying the foundations. Substitute WO here for [Any 
Technology], btw. If you think your staff can be more productive in Rails and 
it's going to solve your problem, I'm all for it. Adapt or die, man.

All I can say is I started in about 2004 and this list was like a desert with 
the exception of Chuck Hill.

I actually doubted my choice at times. Fast forward to today and after my first 
WOWODC, I actually
think WO has grown quite a bit.

Throw in D2W / ERRest / BinaryPlist / iOS connectivity and a sprinkle of 
marketing; you'll have an actual
renaissance.

EOF issue

2010-09-10 Thread Michael Gargano
hi all,

   I'm having an issue with EOUtilities.objectMatchingValues... it keeps giving 
me ClassNotFoundExceptions telling me it cannot find the class for the entity.  
I tried entity.ENTITY_NAME and entity.class.getName().  and nothing, it tells 
me I need the FQ class name still.  (this is a wonder app)

ideas?

thanks

 I'm starting a new D2W app, and one of the things it needs to do is 
 automatically pre-qualify all listings of of entities to filter down to

 I want to add a qualifiers to all searches that they perform that take 
 their Organizations and Roles into account. Each entity that they search on

 I don't think it works with queryAll though.
 
 *shudder* I hate that page... Next task is to figure out how to make it go

Easiest way is to set up the pageConfiguration you want to return as a result 
of your login direct action. You can also change the default page returned by 
D2W factory in the rules.

Re: EOF issue

2010-09-10 Thread Farrukh Ijaz
Hi,

Try moving the classes inside a java package instead of the default package. 
AppUser.ENTITY_NAME represents the table name hence can't be replaced with 
AppUser.class.getName()

 Hi all D2W Gurus,
 
 I'm starting a new D2W app, and one of the things it needs to do is 
 automatically pre-qualify all listings of of entities to filter down to

 is allowed will be somewhat complicated as a user can belong to one or more 
 organizations, and may have one or more roles within each organization.
 
 I want to add a qualifiers to all searches that they perform that take 
 their Organizations and Roles into account. Each entity that they search on 
 will have their own set of qualifiers to do this filtering.

 I don't think it works with queryAll though.
 
 *shudder* I hate that page... Next task is to figure out how to make it go 
 away. :-)
 
 Dave

I just did both of these things as well. I didn't have too hard of a time 
making the queryAll page go away. I decided to have mine go directly to the 
most common entity query page. I set two rules to override defaultPage.

100 *true* startupTask=query
100 *true* startupEntity=EntityName

Oh, and I also set this rule since the above rules didn't result in the 
navigation showing the proper indicator, like Entity - Search.

100 (task = 'query' and entity.name = 'EntityName') 
pageConfiguration=QueryEntityName

No, it represents the Entity name.  The Entity and Table names may  be 
different.

But EOUtilities.objectMatchingValues used the entity name so 
AppUser.ENTITY_NAME is correct.  

The problem is either that the class name in the model does not match the FQ 
name in Java, or the classes are not in the runtime environment for some reason.

There are three names, all of which can be different:

It wants the Entity name.  That is NOT the source of your problem.

 Apple, like any smart company, makes technology decisions based on lots of 
 variables -- what technology makes sense? what technology doesn't make sense? 
 what is the expertise of our current staffing? what are the goals for the 
 project? etc ... I love WO, but I'm also the first to admit that WO and EOF 
 aren't the right fit for every problem. There are parts of WOF and EOF that 
 drive me crazy, and there are parts that are amazing. I also don't think that 
 being WO inherently makes you scalable any more than I think being a Rails 
 app makes you inherently unscalable. It's just like the NoSQL vs Relational 
 debate. Are relational databases dead? No. That's just silly. But do NoSQL 
 databases have a place? Absolutely -- they bring value to a certain set of 
 problems that relational doesn't address well. Likewise, Apple has public web 
 properties that are static html, php, struts, jsf, jsp, sproutcore, 
 webobjects, and I'm sure others and there are lots of different reasons in 
 each of those cases why decisions were made one way or another. In any 
 complex system, you're probably going to end up with a mix of technologies. 
 As far as details, you're just not going to get them because Apple doesn't 
 roll that way.

Re: EOF issue

2010-09-10 Thread Michael Gargano
the reason I thought it was the source is because it was complaining about a FQ 
class name.  it was actually that I needed to but the FQ class name in the 
model.  Never had to do that before, but this is my first wonder app, so I 
guess the ER stuff is different.  normal, i'd just map the models and change 
the package names only in the eogen file.  now I need to it there and the model 
file I guess.  works now.

 Here's my slightly less grumpy response :)
 
 Apple, like any smart company, makes technology decisions based on lots of 
 variables -- what technology makes sense? what technology doesn't make 
 sense? what is the expertise of our current staffing? what are the goals for 
 the project? etc ... I love WO, but I'm also the first to admit that WO and 
 EOF aren't the right fit for every problem. There are parts of WOF and EOF 
 that drive me crazy, and there are parts that are amazing. I also don't 
 think that being WO inherently makes you scalable any more than I think 
 being a Rails app makes you inherently unscalable. It's just like the NoSQL 
 vs Relational debate. Are relational databases dead? No. That's just silly. 
 But do NoSQL databases have a place? Absolutely -- they bring value to a 
 certain set of problems that relational doesn't address well. Likewise, 
 Apple has public web properties that are static html, php, struts, jsf, jsp, 
 sproutcore, webobjects, and I'm sure others and there are lots of different 
 reasons in each of those cases why decisions were made one way or another. 
 In any complex system, you're probably going to end up with a mix of 
 technologies. As far as details, you're just not going to get them because 
 Apple doesn't roll that way.

Re: EOF issue

2010-09-10 Thread Mike Schrag
I seem to recall Wonder changed this to enforce that you use fully-qualified 
class names because not everything in EOF actually properly does an 
_NSUtilities.classNamed call. We probably could automagically rewrite your 
class names at startup if they're simple names, though ... I'll think about

Re: EOF issue

2010-09-10 Thread Chuck Hill
I think that was part of it.  And the use of the default package is now 
deprecated in Java so properly every class name should have a package anyway.  
My feeling is that FQ names in the model is just The Right Thing.

 does an _NSUtilities.classNamed call. We probably could automagically 
 rewrite your class names at startup if they're simple names, though ... 
 I'll think about that one.

 the reason I thought it was the source is because it was complaining about 
 a FQ class name.  it was actually that I needed to but the FQ class name 
 in the model.  Never had to do that before, but this is my first wonder 
 app, so I guess the ER stuff is different.  normal, i'd just map the 
 models and change the package names only in the eogen file.  now I need to 
 it there and the model file I guess.  works now.

 Also wrong.  :-)
 
 There are three names, all of which can be different:
 1. Entity: User
 2. Class: com.foo.bar.User
 3. Table: MyUser
 
 
 , but still is not a substitute for getName() as that gives the FQ class 
 name
 
 From the EOUtilities.objectMatchingValues docs:
 
 Parameters:
 ec - an EOEditingContext
 name - the name of the EOEntity
 values - specifies value of Enterprise Object
 
 It wants the Entity name.  That is NOT the source of your problem.

 Hi,
 
 Try moving the classes inside a java package instead of the default 
 package. AppUser.ENTITY_NAME represents the table name hence can't be

 It's because if you nullify the relationship, after EOF does that it can't
 find the related objects to do the cascade delete.  Nullify and Cascade are
 not compatible.

   Hi,
  
   I have a category structure set up with these relationships:
   parent category ---cascade delete rule--- child category
   parent category ---nullify delete rule--- child category
  
   category ---cascade delete rule/owns destination--- products
   category ---nullify delete rule--- products
  
   The problem occurs when I have a category with a child category that
 contains products. When I delete the parent category, I expect the parent
 and child category, along with all the child category's products to be
 deleted, but what ends up happening is that the categories are deleted but
 the products are not.
  
   When I remove the nullify delete rule from products to category,
 the parent and child categories are deleted along with the child category's
 products.
  
   Does anyone know why this is?

Re: Does Apple stop to use WebObjects for its internal tools?

2010-09-10 Thread Ken Foust
From the outside looking in:

It appears to me as thought WO is on the end of life list.  As good as it may 
be I don't suspect in can survive in the future.  
Apple has elected to leave web development to the open-source.  I would suspect 
they only possible way Apple can compete in the 
Enterprise market is to make it proprietary and in ObjC.  Short of that you 
have too many people working for free on Rails, Grails and all 
the open-source programs. 
There is no way to get enough new users to come aboard as WO now has poor 
documentation and terrible tutorials.
Sorry if I offend anyone but it is what it is.
For you gurus to understand it completely - leaves you in a world of your own, 
but selling the concept I believe is difficult and will even get more 
difficult. 
Hell I think Java is on the way out along with Sun and Oracle.

Apple has always had the proprietary followers and they could put off a 
brilliant app for web development should they choose.  In addition their 
market share is now large enough to support the idea.

Having been a worry-monger (is that a word?) when Apple pulled Sun  Windows 
support, which has become totally irrelevant, I'm still here and have no plans 
to switch.

If you bought an iPhone from the on-line Apple Store you'll see that the 
account verification with att is WO driven. There are parts on the Apple Store 
that still expose the .woa in the URLs. Until now, that is. :-)

Looking at it as someone just starting to get very serious about WO  The 
community needs videos that describe everything from the ground level up.  Not 
just here's how to install WO and Hello World with every other video being 
fairly advanced.  To much is assumed for beginners.  Also, the wiki needs an 
enema.  As I learn more I hope I can help clean it (a lot of the stuff in there 
is outdated).  Maybe starting from scratch in a new wiki or blog would be best. 
 Other than that the community has been extremely helpful overall!

Re: Does Apple stop to use WebObjects for its internal tools?

2010-09-10 Thread Jeremy Matthews
Since I'm in and out of the WO world, I can say that it was hardest for me to 
get updated documentation, sample code, examples, podcasts, etc.

News and information appears sporadic and sparse...and not just on WO, but with 
the rest of the stuff WO devs use (Wonder, Eclipse config, etc).

The folks on this list are fantastic, but I don't view them as my personal 
resource for every single WO question out there, and the ones I had (or have) 
tend to be the same ones that those before me had as well. The community is 
small...GREAT, but small. So when I have a tough question (which happens), it 
seems like the same few folks are answering. It makes me leery for the future - 
if Chuck and Kieran get hit by a bus, I would be going to the nearest bar and 
running a very large tab!

Thanks,
jeremy

 It's just like the NoSQL vs Relational debate. Are relational databases 
 dead? No. That's just silly. But do NoSQL databases have a place? 
 Absolutely -- they bring value to a certain set of problems that 
 relational doesn't address well. Likewise, Apple has public web 
 properties that are static html, php, struts, jsf, jsp, sproutcore, 
 webobjects, and I'm sure others and there are lots of different reasons 
 in each of those cases why decisions were made one way or another. In 
 any complex system, you're probably going to end up with a mix of 
 technologies. As far as details, you're just not going to get them 
 because Apple doesn't roll that way.

WOCommunity 2010 surveys

2010-09-10 Thread Pascal Robert
Ok guys,

While I'm listening to all WOWODC 2010 recordings, I'm preparing the 2010 
surveys. I have put the surveys in the wiki so people can add suggestions and 
comments before I open the survey. 

 Organization Survey : http://wiki.objectstyle.org/confluence/x/lYF9

 Individual Survey : http://wiki.objectstyle.org/confluence/x/l4F9

Will also prepare a survey specific to WOWODC later. ___

2010-09-10 Thread Pascal Robert

Le 2010-09-10 à 19:56, Jeremy Matthews a écrit :

 Since I'm in and out of the WO world, I can say that it was hardest for me to 
 get updated documentation, sample code, examples, podcasts, etc.
 
 News and information appears sporadic and sparse...and not just on WO, but 
 with the rest of the stuff WO devs use (Wonder, Eclipse config, etc).

This is true.

 The folks on this list are fantastic, but I don't view them as my personal 
 resource for every single WO question out there, and the ones I had (or have) 
 tend to be the same ones that those before me had as well. The community is 
 small...GREAT, but small. So when I have a tough question (which happens), it 
 seems like the same few folks are answering. It makes me leery for the future 
 - if Chuck and Kieran get hit by a bus, I would be going to the nearest bar 
 and running a very large tab!

I must say that most communities are like this, and this is part of the reason 
I dropped off our local MUG years ago, it was always the same people asking 
questions, and the same who answered them.  Same situation in some online user 
groups I participate in.

The main problem is that every time someone is good at helping people and with 
coding, Apple will snatch him. In 2004-2005, a lot of people went to Apple and 
the community had a down, but Mike came him and fixed the community. Now Mike 
is at Apple too, so we need to find another Mike... until that new Mike is took 
away by Apple too (unless that person doesn't want to work at Apple).

Re: ERExcelLook problem: Couldn't find the dynamic page named ...

2010-09-10 Thread David LeBer

On 2010-09-10, at 9:42 PM, Klaus Berkling wrote:

 
 I have been looking at David LaBer excellent D2W screencast for ExcelLook 
 (http://davidleber.net/?p=369) and it seemed fairly easy.
 
 I've followed the screencast very closely but yet I see the following error 
 when invoking the excellook:
 
 Couldn't find the dynamic page named ListExcelParticipants in your 
 DirectToWeb model.entity is null, it seems that one model, maybe 
 ERDirectToWeb d2w.d2wmodel is not loaded!
 
 This is weird: model.entity is null. Specifying the entity as 
 EOEntityClassDescription.classDescriptionForEntityName(AttendeeSelectedVEvent.ENTITY_NAME)
  makes no difference.
 
 I've verified the page configuration name.
 
 This is the only D2W part in the whole app, this is a Wonder app 
 (ERXApplication, ERXSession).
 WO 5.4.3
 (Where do I find the WOnder build number?)
 WOLips 3.5.6066
 
 There is only one poi file in 
 /Library/Frameworks/ExcelGenerator.framework/Resources/Java, if that makes a 
 difference: poi-3.2-FINAL-20081019.jar
 I don't think it gets that far.
 
 Any thoughts anyone, all you D2W people, Daves?
 
 Here is the code:
 
 public WOActionResults downloadAsExcelAction() {
   ListPageInterface lpi = 
 (ListPageInterface)D2W.factory().pageForConfigurationNamed(
   ListExcelParticipants, 
   session()
   );
   //EOArrayDataSource ds = new EOArrayDataSource(null, ec);
   EOArrayDataSource ds = new EOArrayDataSource(
   EOEntityClassDescription.classDescriptionForEntityName(
   AttendeeSelectedVEvent.ENTITY_NAME
   ), 
   ec
   );
   ds.setArray(attendeeSelectedVEventList);
   lpi.setDataSource(ds);
   lpi.setNextPage(this.context().page());
   return (WOActionResults)lpi;
 }

Wait, what!?

The page configuration name is not arbitrary, if your entity is named 
'AttendeeSelectedVEvent', then the page configuration needs to be 
ListExcelAttendeeSelectedVEvent

D2W uses the name of the page configuration to figure out what kind of entity 
it is working with.

 
 This is my d2wmodel (user.d2wmodel):
 
 {
   rules = (
 {
   author = 1000; 
   class = com.webobjects.directtoweb.Rule; 
   lhs = {
 class = com.webobjects.eocontrol.EOKeyValueQualifier; 
 key = pageConfiguration; 
 selectorName = isEqualTo; 
 value = ListExcelParticipants; 
   }; 
   rhs = {
 class = com.webobjects.directtoweb.Assignment; 
 keyPath = displayPropertyKeys; 
 value = (
   attendee.nameFamily, 
   attendee.nameGiven, 
   participant
 ); 
   }; 
 }
   ); 
 }
 
 The exception goes off into the weeds:

 Or we could just find someplace dark to hide and wait for it all to end.  In 
 the meantime, I have a lot of work to do...

2010-09-10 Thread Michael Gargano
whatever happens, this is the basket i'm putting my eggs in mm, 
eggs. but, anyway, i've never made a screencast or anything, but as i learn 
more i would be more than will to help add tutorial content to get more people 
involved in WO.  it could also be used for training new people at the company.  
that way i won't have to take two weeks to sit with them.

i really think by making the barrier to entry much easier for new devs, and 
getting the word out about the great content being produced, the community can 
become much larger.

also as a newcomer... the wonder documentation is scary.  lots of functionality 
but nowhere to read about 90% of it.

so, if anyone is interested in starting a huge crazy undertaking, count me in.  
i'm up for it.

 Here's my slightly less grumpy response :)
 
 Apple, like any smart company, makes technology decisions based on 
 lots of variables -- what technology makes sense? what technology 
 doesn't make sense? what is the expertise of our current staffing? 
 what are the goals for the project? etc ... I love WO, but I'm also 
 the first to admit that WO and EOF aren't the right fit for every 
 problem. There are parts of WOF and EOF that drive me crazy, and 
 there are parts that are amazing. I also don't think that being WO 
 inherently makes you scalable any more than I think being a Rails app 
 makes you inherently unscalable. It's just like the NoSQL vs 
 Relational debate. Are relational databases dead? No. That's just 
 silly. But do NoSQL databases have a place? Absolutely -- they bring 
 value to a certain set of problems that relational doesn't address 
 well. Likewise, Apple has public web properties that are static html, 
 php, struts, jsf, jsp, sproutcore, webobjects, and I'm sure others 
 and there are lots of different reasons in each
 of those cases why decisions were made one way or another. In any complex 
 system, you're probably going to end up with a mix of technologies. As far 
 as details, you're just not going to get them because Apple doesn't roll 
 that way.

 Hi,
 
 The new 'the Sales and Trend reporting module' of iTunes Connect is 
 develop with JSF instead of WebObjects.
 Does Apple stop to use WebObjects for its internal tools?
 
 Does someone know what is powering the new Ping social network ?
 
 Regards,
