Re: Compiling

Why not use the bytecode compiler instead, or PAR::Filter::*.
But I guess the real question is what to do with xsp files which 
defer perl code generation to load time.

Still, I'm not afraid of getting my hands dirty, so the following
occured to me: maybe it would be possible to alter the inner workings of
the taglibs so that instead of evaling code all the time,
It's not eval'ing all the time, but only when the respective .xsp 
file changes. This way, it can generate optimized perl code that 
should be able to build your XML output tree as fast as it can get.

There are two tricks I'm sometimes using with long package names:

the problem of choosing a non-conflicting short namespace is just 
moved from the author to the user of the package.

Plain ole Commerce would be nice to keep the modules names short,

commerce building blocks.
I'm wondering if you really need to put multiple modules into such a 
namespace. If you split your functionality into independent chunks, 
you might find that most of your modules don't have anything to do 
with Business:: at all.

XML::LibXML/XSLT bug: escaping in comments

2004-09-09 Thread Christian Jaeger
Hello
(Note: because I'm a bit too lazy to narrow this down to a smaller 
test case ATM, and since maybe someone here knows more about it, I'm 
posting here first instead of directly to rt.cpan.org)

There must be a bug somewhere in handling escaping of strings inside comments.
When trying out the example .xsl/.xml combo downloaded from
http://slideml.org/specification/slideml_1.0/ (zip file),
(you can see them here:
http://elvis-5.mine.nu/~chris/ml/2html_ext_css.xsl
http://elvis-5.mine.nu/~chris/ml/slideml_manual.xml )
I get a correct result when using "xsltproc", but a different one 
when using perl to do the same (using this script: 
http://elvis-5.mine.nu/~chris/ml/xsltransform).

Wrong (javascript does not work):
http://elvis-5.mine.nu/~chris/ml/t1/slide_1.html
Correct (javascript works: space key is trapped):

Re: [patch] sawa exception bug

2004-09-08 Thread Christian Jaeger
BTW, one should generally also local'ize $@ in any code, at least like in:
sub DESTROY {
  ...
  local $@;
  eval {
...
  };
  if ($@) 
}
eval in destructors is particularly nasty, since those without 
'local' wipe out $@ without giving you any chance to look at the 
error (short of abusing $SIG{__DIE__}):

 sub Foo::DESTROY {
eval { }
 }
 eval {
   my $a= bless {},"Foo";
   die "Hell is loose";
   print "Heaven\n";
 };
 if ($@) {
   print "Heaven not achieved: [EMAIL PROTECTED]";
 }
will print nothing at all.
=> always, always (*) localize $@ before entering eval, or 
alternatively localize it in all destructors that use eval directly 
or might use it indirectly.

what we have done for the publishing system used at

The html is parsed and converted to xml on uploading (or saving) the 
html file. Mainly css styles are used by the editors for the text 
markup. Invalid markup is removed and is generating a warning message 
popped up to the editor. Except for some bugs still in the system, 
that works pretty well. Maybe today's client side xml editors provide 
a good alternative though.

If not, I'll consider creating one. (I've not really tested mmm-mode

xsl:call-template question

Hello,

I can't seem to make passing params to template calls work.

Well, maybe I'm even asking for too much: I want to pass not only a 
string to the template, but a whole tree. Does that work at all?

What I want to do is: reuse the "top-level" template (the one 
outputting the ,  and head/footer parts) in several other 
stylesheets that themselves define what's put into the central part 
of the page (the 'main' part).

Thanks for your help,

Perform, and xsl:import puzzles

2003-10-11 Thread Christian Jaeger
Hello

I'm using AxKit::XSP::PerForm for the first time.

- the included perform_html.xsl file is incomplete, it misses the 
following template:


  

  

  
  


- I have problems with xsl:import.
  Ok, there are 3 ways using perform_html.xsl:
  (1) using it directly: cp perform_html.xsl perfhtmlcopy.xsl; remove 
comment around the default template, and put above file_upload 
template into perfhtmlcopy.xsl. This works.
  (2) using an own stylesheet.xsl, and . This works as well.
  (3) using an own stylesheet.xsl, and . This does not work, the html output looks 
like the perform_html.xsl would not have been seen at all.

No error in the logs, just these debug messages:
...
LibXSLT match_uri: /xsl/perform_html.xsl
LibXSLT open_content_uri: /xsl/perform_html.xsl
Style Provider Override: Apache::AxKit::Provider::File
decoding from UTF-8
[req] File Provider given $r: /home/dav/Site1_dev/xsl/perform_html.xsl
encoding to UTF-8
[LibXSLT] performing transformation
...
So libxslt fetches the xsl:import'ed sheet, but then does just as it 
has not seen it at all and only applies the templates from the parent 
sheet.

This is my parent sheet: is the default template a problem?:

Subject: Provider problems
Hello

I'm having many troubles and unclarities about providers.

The attached provider solves this problem:

- url's should be mapped to source files with a fallback strategy:
  if file.html is not found, look for file.xml, if not found, look for .xsp
- translations depend on both url suffix and source suffix: .xsp
files should always be executed as xsp, .xsp and .xml files should
be translated with xsl if requested as .html, and so on.
Now there is one problem and one question.

- Problem: somehow new requests depend on previous requests. Some
state information is preserved between requests. When I request an
.xml file as .html, then even subsequent .xml requests yield the
.html. In spite of "AxNocache On" in the apache condig, so it
doesn't seem like a cache problem (though that's prolly an unsolved
problem still).
- Question: I'm coding my own typemap in this code. That's since I
didn't know how the whole typemap stuff works. Suggestions for a
clean mechanims welcome.
Thanks,
Christian.

I spend days about a year ago. Mainly had problem with environment 
vars being overwritten by apache, thus ugly scripty trying to 
recreate the env to make tk work but never did.

Thanks for any tips
Christian.

Maybe it really needs xerces >= 2.2.x. I'll try as soon as I find

Segfault-free AxKit/libxml/libxslt combination?

2003-04-03 Thread Christian Jaeger
Hello

Has anyone found a segfault free combination of 
libxml/LibXML/libxslt1/LibXSLT(/Axkit) ?

I'm currently using the following, on linux x86:

- installed from CVS:
AxKit: '/usr/local/lib/perl/5.6.1/AxKit.pm', VERSION 1.6_02
# $Id: AxKit.pm,v 1.41 2003/02/07 12:20:47 matts Exp $
- installed from Debian unstable (recompiled on woody):
ii  libxml2 2.4.28-1cj
ii  libxml2-dev 2.4.28-1cj
ii  libxml-libxml-perl  1.52-4cj
ii  libxml-namespacesup 1.07-3cj
ii  libxslt11.0.21-0.2cj
ii  libxslt1-dev1.0.21-0.2cj
ii  libxml-libxslt-perl 1.52-1cj
..and it segfaults every few requests (randomly; limiting the number 
of requests per child to 1 does not help either). We are using exslt 
date-time templates (functions not yet working), and those also seem 
to like to segfault (consistently) in some situations - especially on 
a powerpc machine where it looks worse concerning segfaults.

I'll suggest that to my colleague. We want to be able to specify a

by requesting a list of the most recent ones, or by search argument, 
and so on. And those selections should (at least that's what would be 
cool) be intermix-able freely. Example (which would return a list of 
stories (or their xml contents, respecively) like (Somestory, 
Secondstory, firststoryoftoday, secondstoryoftoday, 
thirdstoryoftoday, Otherstory)):



Somestory-e
Secondstory-e

Otherstory-e


Not sure the above would work though, would maybe have to be:



nameSomestory-e
name>Secondstory-e
sameday_max
nameOtherstory-e

Resistance of TaglibHelper against user errors

2003-03-29 Thread Christian Jaeger
Hello

We are using TaglibHelper for more than 1.5 years now. It has always 
been mainly my colleagues who are writing the taglibs, and they have 
quite many times come to me with a problem they couldn't solve. The 
problem is then that in most cases the error message was just an 
error in the generated perl code. It then always takes (for me who 
didn't write the code :) quite some patience to find out what's 
wrong. This makes TaglibHelper seem quite fragile.

Today my colleague got such an error because he misspelled the 
taglibfunction definition in his taglib. (See example below). Seems 
like having a tag  in an .xsp file without a 
corresponding definition in @EXPORT_TAGLIB breaks TaglibHelper.

Shouldn't TaglibHelper stop building code right when it encounters a 
tag that has no definition?

Christian.

taglibfunction definition in this taglib:

RE: [Business] Anyone need AxKit Hosting?

2002-12-10 Thread Christian Jaeger
Simply using another apache instance for each client and proxying 
requests to them from a mod_accel enabled main intance should be 
enough to provide basic security. Write separate SysV startup scripts 
for each of them using 'su user' if started as root, and separate 
configuration files (httpd -f path); each user using another port. 
mod_accel-enabled main instance proxying to those ports. (Well, you 
can't really prevent some user from taking over the port of another 
user if the latter restarts his httpd; this could be a problem. If 
nothing better, maybe write a setuid-root helper script which is able 
to identify (netstat/lsof) and kill processes listening on the port 
belonging to the real user.)

The only problem I see is it needs to be co-hosted. There's no security
with mod_perl - so I can't see a hosting service willing to do shared
hosting.

However I'm sure you could do it e.g. if you Tod paid for the hosting,
but sold off vhosts on the server to clients using code you'd
developed, that would work.

I've already done something along this line: actually I've separated 
xml generation out of AxKit, and let AxKit only call ->as_errorxml on 
the thrown exception and render that. The exception classes then do 
use a base class that implements this as_errorxml method, which 
generates the xml. Well I haven't changed how the exceptions thrown 
by axkit *itself* are handled, just foreign exceptions. I guess it 
would make sense to make that all more uniform, though, so 
Apache::AxKit::Exception should ideally probably just be a subclass 
of the same class with the as_errorxml method. Maybe using multiple 
inheritance will help.

I've promised for a long time to publish the patch, the exception 
syntax filter and base classes, but didn't because of hard to solve 
problems in the filter, but I'll make an effort now and do it over 
this weekend.

I'm forwarding this to the AxKit and mod_perl lists - sorry for being

If you start apache as root and let it change userid to nobody (or 
whatever), most OS's won't drop core dumps because of security 
considerations (the process could have secret data in it from the 
period being root). (You *can* work around this in linux by calling 
prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE,1) after the set*uid calls, but you would have 
to either patch apache or axkit or call XS code from startup.pl.)

The alternative is to start apache already as some non-root user, but 
then you will have to change it's listening ports to >1024. I guess 
you started gdb as a non-root user and apache couldn't connect to 
port 80.

What comes to my mind: exception handling. Uncatched perl exceptions
thrown in XSP files, custom providers etc. should have a common last
catcher (the current error stylesheet mechanism). Without perl at the
top, who would do it then?(*) (BTW I'll send a small patch shortly
that improves this function of AxKit.pm)

I know from some own experience that standard perl doesn't accept
multiple interpreters in the same process, regardless whether a
shared libperl is used. You have to compile perl with an option to
enable multiple interpreters (something in the same direction as
multithreading) and then explicitely create a new interpreter and
switch contexts as described in perlembed. But I don't know whether
you would need a separate interpreter anyway, why not load the custom
stuff into the same? (apart from my above concern)
