Hi- I am trying to setup my application using maven. On the shale website, it reads, "Snapshots of Shale are also available in Maven repositories." (http://struts.apache.org/struts-shale/index.html#Shale_Download). However, the maven repositories only appear to have shale-test available. For example, http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/org/apache/struts/shale/ only has shale-test.
Is there a repository that does have the snapshots for shale-core and the other shale frameworks?

I'm an chinese, my english not good enough to express my concepts fluently. say sorry first. I would like to start an new idea project in which jsf ,page flow and work flow are integrated seamlessly . it will use pageflow(or dialog) as the user form interfaces for every human activity. Shale clay also acts as an very important role to supply html template capabilities for form designing.Developers can directly bind variables(/beans) of different scopes to jsf component, such as workflow scope(long running, shall be persistent), pageflow scope(may be only lived in session),and other conventional scope(request, session, application). Because its goal aim as an enterprise application, the performance should be considered first.I had read some core code of myfaces and shale clay for finding potential performance defects. so fortunately or my poor skill, only some design look like performance defects. the core thing of JSF processing can be understood as concentrating at managing and consuming component tree(creating, iterating). while using JSF in actual scenarios, component tree may grow larger and larger. so, too many components would influence cpu consuming, and cause reponse speed downward. In every JSF lifecycle phase, walk through the whole component tree depth-firstly every time in myfaces implement. if we have 500 components(children components already counted) in a page,we will iterate every component 6 times at least (restoreveiw, applyrequest, validate, updatemodel, invokeapplication, render), and all count is 500 * 6. Apparently, in applyrequest and validate, updatemodel, invokeapplication phases, if we directly mapping and find corresponded component to the request ratherthan using children list and iterating all, we can execute more quickly. Isn't it right ? About shale clay, I find a improvable implement point. when clay parsing an raw html template, it will divide every content between "<" and ">" and make them as node tree, and then use builder pattern to transform them into ComponentBean tree, and then transform into JSF Component tree again.But it might well generate too many Verbatim HtmlOutputText components. for example, to string "<li>a<br>b<br>c<br>d<br></li>", clay will eventually generate ten HtmlOutputText component for it even thought it shall be only one HtmlOutputText component. So, if we use large html template,it probably create thousands of components , and cause serious performance problem, and be enlarged largely because current JSF impl will iterate all components over and over again. so , why do not we merge adjacent Verbatim components to one ? The other worry is about "org.apache.shale.clay.config.beans.ConfigDefinitionsWatchdogFilter". this filter will work in every request. so, if we have one hundred html or xml templates, in every request there are also 100 dirty check for those files. if we use URL obj to access files time property,i think it may be an expensive and no-worthy operation. why do not we place watch dog dirty checking work in an independent daemon thread and intervally check, i.e. check every 1 minute?Of course, if we can use hotswap object when dirty checking to assure thread safe, it would be more perfect. the following code demo an hotswap design for file change monitoring. the only limitation is that shall use getMap() first and once. map idMap = getMap(), and latter use idMap variable through an request thread. you can use weaked referenced variable and threadlocal to improve the following demo further. in clay, watchdog maybe hotswapable I think. regards aftermath ==================================================================== public class SecurIDUserAuthMechanism implements UserAuthenticationMechanisms, FileChangeListener{ private static SecurIDUserAuthMechanism instance = new SecurIDUserAuthMechanism(); private Map usr_mchnsm_map = new HashMap(); private Map usr_mchnsm_map_old = new HashMap(); private SecurIDUserAuthMechanism() { } public static SecurIDUserAuthMechanism getInstance() { return instance; } public void fileChanged (File file){ load(file); } synchronized public boolean load(InputStream input) { try { Map temp = new HashMap(); BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(input, "GB2312")); String line; while((line=reader.readLine())!=null) { if (line.trim().length() > 0) temp.put(line.trim(), "DYNAPASSWORD"); } setMap(temp); return true; } catch (Exception ex) { return false; } } synchronized public boolean load(File file) { boolean success = false; try { FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(file); success = load(in); } catch (Exception ex) { } return success; } private synchronized Map getMap() { return usr_mchnsm_map; } private synchronized void setMap(Map map) { usr_mchnsm_map_old = usr_mchnsm_map; usr_mchnsm_map = map; } public boolean isHasMechanism(Principal user, String mechanismName){ Map map = getMap(); if (map.containsKey(user.getName())) { return true; } else return false; } public boolean isHasMechanism(Principal user, SecurityLevel level){ return isHasMechanism(user, level.getSecurityLevelName()); } public boolean isHasMechanism(String user, String mechanismName){ Map map = getMap(); if (map.containsKey(user)) { return true; } else return false; } public boolean isHasMechanism(String user, SecurityLevel level){ return isHasMechanism(user, level.getSecurityLevelName()); } } _________________________________________________________________ 免费下载 MSN Explorer: http://explorer.msn.com/lccn --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Disclaimer: This electronic mail and any attachments are confidential and may be privileged.
