RE: Re: ESQL support for stored procedures

2002-01-19 Thread Kosh . Podder

Thanks for the info - tell where I can take a look at the patch once 
you've uploaded it.
 
Earlier today, I made the few minor additions necessary to the esql 
logicsheet, so that we can now use our Sybase stored procs via support 
for CallableStatement, which seems to work fine. I can post it here if 
anybody is interested.

I'll be interested to understand more about the causes of the problems 
that you are experiencing, since we may come across similar problems 
using Sybase - are these really errors really orginating from the 
Cocoon ESQL layer, or are they due more to the implementation of the 
JDBC drivers?

Cheers,

Kosh

I need your help....

2002-01-19 Thread Erkan Yartas



hello,
I have downloaded cocoon-2.0 the other day.When I 
unzipped cocoon-2.0 folder had already cocoon.war file in it.
I really did not understand where am I type the 
command below
 
 .\build.bat 
-Dinclude.webapp.libs=yes -Dinstall.war=%TOMCAT_HOME%\webapps 
install

 Do I 
suppose to type this in my MsDos prompt or where

 since I already have the .war 
file (from unzipping) can I just copy that file instead of building another 
one.?


Another question is:
I just copied cocoon.war file (which came with 
cocoon-2.0 when I unzipped) to tomcat's webapps/lib and then started the tomcat 
server. But when I typed Http://localhost:8080/cocoon/ the page 
come up with an error message saying that the page can not be displayed. Error 
404.


Thanks

Erkan,

could you just follow the (very recent) thread named Just starting COCOON
? It addresses the same concerns you have.

Best regards,

P.S.

Apache-Tomcat configuration

2002-01-19 Thread yuryx

Hi, I've problems with Apache-Tomcat-Cocoon configuration.
I use Russian Apache v. 1.3.22 Tomcat 4.0.1 Cocoon2 and JDK1.3.1 on RH7.2
All settings (env variables,...) seem ok, Apache works properly on port 
80 and Catalina does the same on port 8080.
My problem is:
On MSWindows system  all documets (utomatically generated by Catalina) 
dont normally encoding from UTF-8 :((
On Linux system some documents encoding  without  any problem... Does 
anybody have any ideas ?
Thanx.

Re: Just starting COCOON

2002-01-19 Thread Roger I Martin PhD

Understand that what you download from the apache Cocoon site is not a
software tool or IDE but a super-powered servlet with many illustrations of
how to use it, all in one huge example webapp (much beyond a typical Hello
World! example).  Your starting point is getting this one huge example web
app to deploy once or twice on tomcat by placing the cocoon.war file in the
webapps folder of tomcat.  The as is Cocoon installation either works or
it doesn't.  There is nothing you can do right or wrong. Especially for the
Current Version System CVS revision xml-cocoon2 from the jakarta site
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/cvsindex.html.  My current tomcat revision is
Apache Tomcat/4.0.2-b1.  After I get a stable Cocoon revision running I use
it for a few months and back it up religiously when I go for the next cvs.
The command line:

 build.bat -Dinclude.webapp.libs=yes -Dinstall.war=%TOMCAT_HOME%\webapps

often will not work depending on the exact TOMCAT_HOME environment variable
you are using.  For example c:/Program Files/tomcat... has a space and can
cause age old problems.  Just copy the cocoon.war to the
%TOMCAT_HOME%\webapps yourself.  Fire tomcat up.  It either works or you got
a bum revision or copy of Cocoon.war. If it doesn't work the second time you
fire it up, delete the generated ...tomcat/work/localhost/cocoon and the
...tomcat/webapps/cocoon folders so that it has to deploy from the
cocoon.war file again.  May have to do this repeatedly until you rebuild
cocoon.war without hsqldb active or start making your own webapp
project(deployed through your own *.war file).  The problem is with the
hsqldb database example has a bug while shutting down.  The sooner that you
rebuild cocoon from its sources with
hsqldb-server class=org.apache.cocoon.components.hsqldb.ServerImpl
logger=core.hsqldb-server
pool-max=1 pool-min=1
parameter name=port value=9002/
parameter name=silent value=true/
parameter name=trace value=false/
/hsqldb-server

commented out in the src/webapp/cocoon.xconf file, the better.  The the rest
of the examples will start and stop just find.  Note that some of the
examples need extra jars placed in the cocoon/lib folder such as jndi.jar,
phpsrvlt.jar, etc. The important thing is to get past flopping around in
this one huge example webapp and start your own serious webapp as soon as
possible after you see Cocoon's one huge example webapp run once or twice.

Cocoon is not a typically installed software package and so to apply it to
your own web app at first is not intuitive.  The documentation has a long
way to go to catch up; remember it is a work in progress and tends to assume
that we know the small but totally baffling how-to-get-started stuff.  I
finally discovered a cool way to do it and perhaps with editing from the
Cocoon 2 Team we can put together a How to apply Cocoon 2 for their web
site.  The most important thing is to set up your own webapp project build
area.  This takes some work but you can do it in stages.  To start, create a
project folder(sibling to the xml-cocoon2 folder), name it according to your
project, prepare your directory structure:

+-lib
all of the jars from your current working xml-cocoon2/lib folder
plus the cocoon.jar from the xml-cocoon2/build/cocoon folder
//this is key because now your own build can be simplyfied
+-src //For your own custom additions to cocoon
+-documentation //At first just a copy from the xml-cocoon2/src
//You can eventually put your own or only things you need here
+-java //Only your own custom code here.  No cocoon code because
cocoon.jar already has the compiled Cocoon classes.
+-webapp//At first a copy of the webapp from xml-cocoon2/src
  //This you start modifying starting with the homepage
  //and sitemap.xmap
appendcp.bat
//classpath appender
build.bat
build.xml//A stripped down or commented out revision from the one
   //in the xml-cocoon2 folder.  Have it generate a build
folder
   // for construction of  your webapp jar and war files.
database.properties.
//set up your database initialization
//you will need to set somethings according to
//
http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/developing/datasources.html

Your custom webapp's build.xml can be pared down considerably from the huge
example cocoon webapp.  Until you make custom source code additions to your
...src/java folder you can disable the compile target.  Mostly you are
having it build the stuff it needs for your war file while applying build
variables such as
database-driver=org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver.


The next stage is studying the ...src/webapp/sitemap.xmap file and modify
the welcome pattern matching to something you know and want.  There is no
need to pare the sitemap.xmap file down; eventually you will need more and
more of it and anything not in 

POI 1.2.0 (development release) (Cocoon-Excel)

2002-01-19 Thread Andrew C. Oliver

Hi All,

The POI project (http://poi.sourceforge.net) has just released a 1.2.0
version.  Please note this is a development release only.  1.0.2
(confusing I know) is the current production release.  

In this release, we've restructured the serializer in preparation for
writing the generator and serializers for additional POI file formats
and **added cell styling to the HSSF Serializer**.  In addition there
are a few performance enhancements to strings and various other things
you can read about in the release notes. 

Please remember this is a development release.  We're especially
interested in folks taking a crack at the serializer.  We'd like to 
get it up to the 1.0.x API feature set early in this cycle.

Thanks,

Andy

PS:
For those of you who do not know yet:

 The POI project contains several components for dealing with popular
OLE 2 formats in Java. POIFS is a pure Java implementation of the OLE 2
Compound document format. HSSF is a pure Java implementation of Excel 97
XLS file format based on POIFS. HSSF Serializer is a pure Java
serializer for Cocoon 2 that uses the Gnumeric XML format to output XLS.
Full documentation of the POIFS file format is included. If you wish to
output reports in the Excel file format, or if you have existing XML
documents that you need to get into Excel, then this project is probably
what you're looking for.

 I'd go for an URLStreamHandler, which is reusable outside of Cocoon.
 
 I don't know if Cocoon allows for configurable URLStreamHandlers (or

 definitely be a plus.

I do not recall correctly why, but there are some issues with standard
URLStreamHandlers, that's why Cocoon have own set of classes to handle
protocols. If you wish to have better integration with Cocoon (including
better integration with caching sub system), consider writing your news
protocol implementing using org.apache.cocoon.environment.Source. Look
into org.apache.cocoon.components.source package for the examples.

All Cocoon protocols are declared in cocoon.xconf file:

The url factory adds special url protocols to the system, they are
then
available inside Cocoon, e.g. as a source argument for one of the
sitemap
components.

RE: Select on Browser Capabilities

2002-01-19 Thread Alex Kachanov




I think generally you are right. It would be nice to get the capabilities
directly from the header and serve the content accordingly. But I guess this
will have to wait until the next(?) generation of mobile phones.


there is a project called RDF that is planned to be used to describe
device capabilities. The link to RDF file will be sent with the UA string
in HTTP header. However this is just a plan that might be realized in
next century


BUT, Cocoon2 has such feature as Browser Capability database.
so instead of recognizing the browser in pipeline or in the code
you can just add the browser to this database and use the variables
from the database (such as screen width, color depth, img format)
to serve a specific stylesheet for specific mobile phone or PC browser.

have a look at previous messsages in this list where I talk about this hidden feature.
