Re: [GT2003] Thank you

2003-10-10 Thread Joerg Heinicke
At the end and after passing the Sun Java Programmer Certification I 
will also join the thanking people. It was my first event related to 
software development and it was so impressive. The town, the meals, the 
Outerthought support (thanks, Steven, for the link and Bruno for the 
plan of Gent - by the way: what's the difference between Gent and 
Ghent?), the lectures, the discussions and talks and especially the 
people/community. So many similar experiences other people also had when 
using and escpecially when not using Cocoon!

I appreciated this event very much and am looking forward for the next 
one. I can only recommend everybody to attend the next GetTogether.

Joerg

I should point out that's because of the torrential rain that morning on

Here's another Very Late Thank You to all at the Cocoon GetTogether!
Special thanks to Steven for all his hard work and of course Marc, Bruno and the Orixo 
gang as a whole who made this possible. I had fun. We've been brutally abusing the 
flamish hospitality, and I hope to do so again next year!

Everyone involved put in a lot of work to make this a great even.  I 
sure appreciated.

I'm looking forward to next years!

Hi All!

Likewise! It was great to catch up with everyone in Ghent again. The
GetTogether was great - thanks Steven, Marc and Bruno and everyone else
involved for organising it.

Looking forward to the next event! 

Cheers,

Marcus

PS. I'm addicted to those ribs again! Will have to find some place in

Select your cocoon project. Click apply/debug.


The way I've been debugging cocoon is by extending the CocoonWrapper 
class and adding a slightly different version of the processURI() 
method that returns the status rather than throwing a 
ProcessingException on failure.  Then I have a Main class (actually, 
it is a ExcaliburTestCase class) that does the following:
One small point. The CocoonWrapper, while it does do what you need, is 
not intended to be a public interface, and, after discussions at the 
GetTogether, could change or be removed. I'd suggest you use (and extend 
if necessary) the CocoonBean, which after all has the same functionality.



CocoonTester cocoon = new CocoonTester();
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
cocoon.setContextDir("src/webapp");
cocoon.setLogKit("src/webapp/WEB-INF/debug-logkit.xconf");
cocoon.setLogger("stream");
cocoon.initialize();
cocoon.processURIStatus("test/", baos);
System.out.println(baos.toString());
Looks simple enough. Have you tried requesting a view? E.g.:
cocoon.processURIStatus("test/?cocoon-view=links", baos);
Does that work? If it does, that means that you can access the XML as it 
passes through your pipeline by just requesting specific views. If it 
doesn't work, then it needs fixing.

Note that CocoonTester is my subclass of CocoonWrapper, and 
debug-logkit.xconf is a modified version of the regular cocoon 
logkit.xconf that uses the stream target to log everything to System.out.
It all looks surprisingly neat and simple.

This is the beginnings of my effort to come up with a way to start 
unit testing cocoon pipelines.  It is easier than dealing with remote 
debugging, and dumping all the logs to the console is helpful as well. 
I'm looking into a way to send requests to cocoon using the 
SitemapSource rather than cocoon.process() to request a page since I'd 
like to get back SAX events rather than bytes.
Hmm. That would be a bit of a challenge. Why would sax events help you?

A big "THANK YOU" to everyone who blogged, wikied, videoed, etc.
It helped those of us who could not come not feel so far away.

I am looking forward to the virtual meetings, if I can overcome my work
firewall issues.  Since they will be on Fridays, I might be able to hook
in after work from home.

Set a breakpoint in your code. Request a page with your browser from

Also, I don't know if I can touch the woody code, I requested permision
before, but nobody give us a green light for that. I promise not broke the
current code :)
We already developed a very simple squeleton (a dir structure) for the
proposed "business objects". Inside every "business object" is a generic
sitemap.xmap that handle the forms that manage the "business object". This
generic sitemap then can be literaly copied to every new businnes object.
The idea (as I posted before) is to allow a kind of plugin of the business
objects inside cocoon. We are almost ending a usecase of that, but still
there is the problem related to a stall while calling OJB inside flow. :(
I know this is not to said: "Wow". But maybe it can show a usecase or best
practices to use woody+flow+OJB.
We need also integrate the authentication framework inside the squeleton.

Great event, nice people, cool meeting. The whole thing was filmed by 
Stefano, and the videos should be made available for download so that 
everybody can have a feeling of what happened. Problem is finding a

Yes, agreed. A monthly "virtual hackathon" as suggested by David
