Can we use servlet API in webobjects
Hi all, Good day Wishes !! We would like to use servlet API in webobjects. Because we need to call third party api method with HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse as parameters. Now we are accepting the DirectAction request and we need to call that third party api. So we need to convert the WORequest to HttpServletRequest in DirectAction. *But we don't want to deploy this application in other servers.* We should have to deploy this only in webobjects. So please let me know, how to convert WORequest to HttpServletRequest or else the other choice. Thanks regards, Butchi Reddy Velagala ___ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Re: Any plans to build libapache2-mod-wo for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
I added the dependency on apache2 to the adaptor package. I build the packages from my debian branch of my wonder fork (https://github.com/btriller/wonder). I use git-buildpackage to build the packages, in order to build for the different distributions. But you can also build them by calling debian/rules from the source directory and what not (dpkg-buildpackage, debuild, pbuilder, cowbuilder ...). The repository und packages.wocommunity.org also includes the source packages, so you can download the source from there after adding the deb-src line to your sources.list.

Hi Aaron,
thanks for you reply. I checked this now. All resources are loaded and there is
no match with not_found or something similar. I compared the direct connected
version with the no direct connected and i found no difference. Any other idea?
Does anyone uses DirectConnect and AjaxUpdateLinks?

Make sure ALL of your resources are loading. Maybe there is something with

Open up Safari and check that all resources are loaded in the resource

Re: Any plans to build libapache2-mod-wo for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Hi Bastian, thx (again ;-) for your explanation. Maybe you can update the docs in the wiki. Another thing: Line 4 of apache's config file for the webobjects module (/etc/apache2/mods-available/webobjects.conf) is: Alias /WebObjects /var/lib/webobjects/htdocs/WebObjects Unfortunately this doesn't work out of the box. At least, it does not on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

Wonder addition - updated openbase plugin
I received permission to include a modified OpenBasePlugIn into Wonder. Thought I’d open this up to a best practice discussion here. Since the original plugin was bundled with the WO frameworks, my assumption is that the plugin class should be renamed - sth like EROpenBasePlugIn? By doing so we could eliminate any possible confusion. It was communicated to me that the plugin was an enhanced version of the one that shipped with WO. I have modified it to correct immediate issues with migrations in Wonder (including updates to WO 5.4 synchronization classes). This would also make it somewhat dependent on a version of Wonder that has been updated in the same fashion - which I also have and, if it passes muster, could be pulled into Wonder as well.

Re: Wonder addition - updated openbase plugin
The replacement plugins are in ERExtensions which is forced into the class path before any of the WO frameworks.

RE: Which RIA
Hi Aaron, Frank, and gang, What I found out with GWT when I was using it for my dissertation is that Wonder has two channels that tend to be handy with GWT. First is the ReST approach and second is the AJAX frameworks. With the AJAX frameworks, there is a tricky issue with hooks provided in the GWT frameworks for acquiring other JavaScript objects.The trick in this case is to make a run-time bind the GWT component to the JS provided in Wonder's implementation of AJAX. The other binding goes to the parent AJAX object running in the browser. The other approach is to bind to ERRest verbs via the standard XMLHttpRequest, which GWT inherits from AJAX. Now, I adopted use of OGF's DFDL standard to tell my GWT objects what to expect from ERRest. Also, the ReST based objects observe the same run-time binding as do their WO-AJAX counter-parts. I found that there is a trade-off in efficiency between the two approaches. The Wonder AJAX can carry the same info as OGF's DFDL, and load straight from the Wonder app. Whereas the DFDL approach either forces a special DFDL Wonder app or at least a binding to the Wonder app of some sort. At one point, I was planning on augmenting Marcus' book or simply adding a volume to it on the subject of Wonder with GWT. The major advantage of GWT as I see it is not with the learning curve. Rather, the idea is to have a compiler that knows the quirks of each web browser targeted. Some web browsers comply well with standards and others don't. An easy habit to fall into with raw AJAX is to concentrate only on one browser, and fail when it comes any other browser the user may choose. With GWT, handling those quirks is an inherited trait. That being said, I hope also to learn up on Beniot's Montage. It looks pretty exciting. It may offer even better frameworks than GWT, but I can't say for sure at this time. The trials will tell. Any who, that is my two cents on the subject. I hope to publish a copy of my dissertation for the public soon. I probably need to include an appendix with a tutorial on GWT with Wonder.

There's a lot of stuff out there. I didn't know about Vaadin but I watched their video and thought. how is this different than Google Web Toolkit? You spend all of your time in pure java but the Javascript Ajax stuff is built for you. so you don't have to really learn JS and have that context switch in your head. Sounds good, I guess. and Vaadin is built on top of GWT. but then what is it really doing above and beyond GWT? I don't know, I didn't look at it further. I can't help but think that anything based on GWT gives someone an initial bang for the buck just because if they know Java that's all they have to worry about. But at some point you'll hit a wall and not be able to do something cool in the browser that you want to do. not without learning JS and extra work. I also don't think GWT was truly designed with Mobile in mind. Notice the word truly. Frank, it's really up to you. Spend some time to experiment, give yourself two weeks or so, and make your best guess. This is a religious decision, it always is. Personally I'd suggest you communicate over REST with something like ERRest. Pick a good Javascript library that makes sense to you. When I look at it all there are two main camps: 1) HTML based page-to-page Javascript frameworks a) Fast to learn b) Pretty and looks nice (at first) c) Unfortunately becomes hard to maintain over time and very brittle 2) Single page app non-HTML Javascript frameworks a) Large learning curve b) Pretty and performant c) Feels like writing a true application, easy to maintain and extend over time. Mojo was the preliminary example of a JS framework that adhered to #1. Not many people know about it but it was the way to write apps for the WebOS phones like the Palm Pre. There are many other frameworks that work in almost the same way, the most famous is JQuery-Mobile. It has been proven that this is *not* the way to long term sanity. It is a short term *win* or a cool way to make a mobile app in a weekend but it will bite you over time. Because of this Palm completely dropped Mojo. JO was the first real example that resonated with me of a JS framework that adhered to #2. It is so nice to write an app in javascript. It generates the HTML for you, all you have to think about is your business

Failed to prepare partial IU: [R]org.objectstyle.wolips.templateengine 3.7.20140223.48. FWIW... Right now I’m on Keplar release 2 with WOLips 4.3. I have no issues except for the known issue with the modeler where the attribute detail pane does not always refresh when selecting an attribute of an entity. Before that I was on 3.8.2 which is what GOLipse installs. That is rock solid and has no problems that I’m aware of. I’ve worked some on trying to get a version of GOLipse that installs the 4.3 combination but the p2 plugin install stuff is always a little hairy to work out. I guess it depends on whether folks really want it. Tim UCLA GSEIS ___ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

The 3.8-combo has the same problem with JRebel and JProfile as 3.7. Unselect these options when doing a clean install. kib Klaus Berkling www.berkling.us | @kiberkli | Photography smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature ___ Do not post admin requests to the list.
