Re: Query regarding BIRT report generation in OFBiz
Probably sure that can be done, however remember that currently the report is prepared outside ofbiz, within eclipse and imported into OFBiz. This means that a simple version of the report preparation function should be duplicated within the ofbiz environment which does not really sound as an easy task.

Look at the data source, we are using minilanguage which is using the delegator. You want to talk directly to the jdbc driver We are not in favor of that and never used this route.

Fwd: css problem with ftl ????
Hello, I have a very strange problem. I can only imagine that it is dependent on the FTL. This is my page on the apache server. There is no problem. All things are beautiful centered. http://www.olagos.eu/index_d.html OK the links to the images are not ok at the moment. But you see that here it is loaded in the center, so that is perfect. If i load the same files from the embedded tomcat, i have a problem. It is to say that the container is not put in the center but at the left. The problem is in the word auto on the wrapper tag in the css file. This word auto is not recognized if i generate the html file from within a ftl file. Have a look at the result in : http://www.olagos.eu/ecommerce/control/main Anyone an idea on a bug on Freemarker language level. ??? regards, Heidi

Now in the client side how will I process this 'GenericValue' object as this class is specific to OFBiz. So I will not be able to typecast that to GenericValue. So do I need to create a jar file of GenericValue class and then set into my web application classpth ? And If I am doing this then it's like just copy pasting the OFBiz framework into my web application.

But I want to access it via SOAP. Thanks Regards Pradeep Ruhil -Original Message- From: David E Jones [mailto:d...@me.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 19, 2010 9:56 AM To: user@ofbiz.apache.org Subject: Re: Doubt regarding 'GenericValue' support provided in OFBiz web services. If your client application is written in Java, then check out the ExampleRemoteClient.java file in OFBiz (there are comments there about how to use it). If you have to use SOAP (and if so, I'm sorry for your pain, there are so many better alternatives) then the easiest way is to write a custom SOAP service that lives in an OFBiz component and calls the OFBiz service when it is called, and returns the result you want in whatever flavour of SOAP you require. -David On Jan 18, 2010, at 10:21 PM, Pardeep Ruhil wrote: Hi, I have a doubt regarding the support of data types provided in OFBiz for web services. I have a web application which uses services defined in OFBiz to access and retrieve data from database. Now the service defined in OFBiz has 'GenericValue' as a OUT parameter. As currently OFBiz provide support for custom and complex object parameter support, so I will get this object on the client side I.e. my web application. Now in the client side how will I process this 'GenericValue' object as this class is specific to OFBiz. So I will not be able to typecast that to GenericValue. So do I need to create a jar file of GenericValue class and then set into my web application classpth ? And If I am doing this then it's like just copy pasting the OFBiz framework into my web application. My second doubt is : How to write the client to access the OFBiz web service in my web application ? Do I need to write that the same way as code written in 'SoapClientEngine.java' file like serialize the input parameters and then send them. Because otherwise If I am using axis to call the OFBiz web service , I am getting 'Not able to deserialize the 'inputMap' parameter. Kindly help me to clear my doubts.

RE: OFBiz data load - Documentation
I woke up with a lot of text to read here in Brussels. I was about to make a detailed answer on your How would you like things to work? when I found out somebody linked ofbiz.apache.org 'Documentation' to a page I haven't seen before. I'm gonna end up believing in Santa Claus again! I would have started to order by release like the examples below - there must be a reason why people are ordering by release - : Windows http://www.microsoft.com/enable/products/docs/default.aspx Apache http http://httpd.apache.org/docs/ Derby (guess some Armonk(NY) based IT company had a hand in this one) http://db.apache.org/derby/manuals/index.html (couldn't check Oracle because the link is broken :-) - way to go Lary! - : http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/index.html ) Nevertheless it is looking really neat compared with where it came from. I'll be traveling the next three weeks, but I will certainly try to update something if I come across.

That's good. Then you have some understanding of market forces and motivations. The trick is how to get people to do things, and on top of that how to get them to work with others to do things. With code there are lots of reasons to collaborate, and some of the nature of code forces people to collaborate if they want to work on similar things. With documentation there is not only a problem with people finding reasons to work on it and contribute things, but even more there is a problem of getting people to collaborate to better organize things and reduce duplication of effort. I don't see how I can help to change the structure of the documentation. If I can edit the cwiki I'be glad to change the hierarchy as proposed. Ironically one of the places with the least collaboration is in organizing things. Everyone who works on it seems to come in and impose a top-down structure and start (but usually not finish) putting things in that structure, or they go bottom up and start organizing things and grouping similar things. With the second approach there is also rarely finishing, but at least the progress can be somewhat cumulative. You can certainly change things. We have an open space that anyone with an account can modify: http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ If you're going to go with the top-down approach I mentioned above, I'd recommend doing it in a series of pages that point to other pages rather than changing the actual hierarchy (I'm actually rather surprised that with so many programmers about people haven't done more of this approach). There are spaces that don't allow just anyone to edit them, including the end-user and technical documentation spaces: http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBENDUSER http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBTECH The maverick nature of documentation so far clearly shows here... as there is a lot to be desired in terms of volume and polish of the documentation. To see even more of the maverick nature of doc efforts, you can also look around at the various external sites with documentation on them. If it will never change, so be it. I just believe it's a pity of this work, people getting started and not finding the f** manual. Well, to start with try this page (if you haven't already): http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Documentation+Index Of course, even there you'll notice that it is heavy on technical documentation. I guess in general there just isn't as much end-user documentation, if that's what you're looking for, and what there is tends to be scattered about in the open space (ie the confluence/display/OFBIZ URL above). BTW, my opinion on how end-user documentation should be organized is by business process. This would look something like the structure here: http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBREQDES/Universal+Business+Process+Library+Index I've been trying to find time to get back to this and add an overlap analysis to the process stories. That overlap analysis would basically end up as an process-organized overview of where to find things in the applications, though it wouldn't be any sort of complete description of how to use things and what things mean. Anyway, that's an overview of what's there and some ideas about moving forward. That said, how would you like things to work and how are they different from what's around now? -David Subject: Re: OFBiz data load - Documentation From: d...@me.com Date: Mon, 18 Jan 2010 14:15:45 -0600 To: user@ofbiz.apache.org I think you're right Jacques, though I also

HI David: David E Jones wrote: On Jan 18, 2010, at 8:45 PM, Ruth Hoffman wrote: Why David - thanks for the endorsement! Competition is always a good thing and I welcome it as it makes me better. Let me just say, however, the ramp up time associated with OFBiz is nothing compared to writing and self-publishing. It's not as easy as it looks. And it is expensive. You can't just toss together a computer w/Linux and Java (all freebies) and hope to assemble something useful. And, it doesn't pay nearly as well as consulting. This is just my opinion, but I think that if you wanted to make money on proper documentation (which is probably more than a 10,000 hour effort as a rough guess) you'd have to do it along with a supported commercial distribution and a good marketing budget. In other words, if your target market size is that of whatever the OFBiz open source project (with a marketing budget of zero, conveniently the same in any currency), then your target market is pretty small. My intent was never to make money on documentation. I charge for the books because it has been proven that free translates to not worth anything. My books are certainly worth something. But, my real objective is to develop high quality OFBiz training resources. Being a lone wolf, I have to start somewhere. IMO there is a dearth of good OFBiz end-user documentation. I saw a need (actually, I experienced a need since I've lived through several generations of OFBiz without much documentation) and as they say in Market 101, I'm tying to meet market demand. If you tried to spend on marketing for just documentation you'd have a limit of whatever OFBiz draws, or you'd have to spend enough to lift OFBiz along with your product which brings me back to the idea of doing a supported distribution in addition to marketing because the revenue potential for documentation alone is probably not adequate for that level of marketing spend, and you would also be putting capital into marketing for something you don't control. Agreed! It boils down to gaining mind share - which is really another term for marketing. And marketing costs money. And I have only a limited budget. Actually, all I have right now is my time, experience and knowledge of OFBiz. So, there you go! It's a bootstrap operation. Looking for new ventures are you? How about just invest in what I'm doing? If there is anyone out there who would like to invest in my efforts, I'm all ears! I could use a new server, some first-class editorial help, a professional indexer, professional quality publication software (something like InDesign) etc., etc., etc. I'm sorry if I made the wrong impression, when I wrote It would be interesting to see that's what I meant, putting me in the position of an outside observer. Not only am I not in a position to invest, I'm not even in a position to participate in a startup unless it is already well funded. I'm just a working man. Actually, it's worse than that... I'm just a failed entrepreneur with more liabilities than assets and in this labour market with growing supply and flat-lined demand I'm back to making what I did 8 years ago when OFBiz was a year old and little more than a very basic framework plus a hacked together, primitive, ecommerce package. You didn't leave me with the wrong impression. I wasn't asking for your monetary investment. I'm trying to engage you in meaningful dialog so that when I have questions about how OFBiz works or a new user makes an attempt to solve an OFBiz problem (for example on the mailing lists), you won't be such an ogre. Investment comes in many forms. I think you will find if you lighten up a little and share your wisdom, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. That is not to say that I wouldn't consider monetary investments from others. I've been trying to find a way to get other people outside the OFBiz community to get excited about this project and possibly invest. That is another reason why I sell the books and spend way to much time on the myOFBiz.com website. I have to prove to potential investors that this stuff really works and what better way then to eat my own dogfood with myOFBiz.com? I'd like to think I've learned some lessons in all of this. One is that the old saying about love does not apply at ALL to investing, and it is not better to have invested and lost than to never have invested at all. In fact, I think investing is all about timing, and I've blown it altogether. If you're starting with nothing then you never want to invest immediately should you manage to earn more than you need to live. Work like mad to make a lot of money when markets are up, but for goodness sake don't invest it then! Hoard it and wait for the market to fall apart, THEN start investing in whatever you're going to, be it people and training for a services business, assets with the hope of appreciation, intellectual property of
Axis2 service in OFBIZ?
Hi all, I need that OFBIZ can manage some Axis2 services. In one of them ofbiz has to change the statusId of some orderId. I have made this change in java code, but I am not sure how to make an axis2 service. I think that I have to do the following: - Make a service in service.xml with export=true and location=the.java.package - Run always this service in ofbiz. (Applications -- Webtools -- Run Service). Is that true? Have I to make something more?

Re: css problem with ftl ????
If the html is the same then the only thing I can suggest to is to make sure that the css file that you think is being used is actually the one that is being used. Inspect the page's source code and get the css file's url from it, download the css file from that url and ensure that it is actually the file you are expecting it to be.

Re: css problem with ftl ????
ok Adrian and Scott, I will investigate it further the next days. Thanks for your ideas. It helps ! regards, Heidi 2010/1/19 Scott Gray scott.g...@hotwaxmedia.com If the html is the same then the only thing I can suggest to is to make sure that the css file that you think is being used is actually the one that is being used. Inspect the page's source code and get the css file's url from it, download the css file from that url and ensure that it is actually the file you are expecting it to be.

Re: how to know which tags and tag attributes are valid?
The association is already there in the xml files, see the xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation attribute in the root tag. Eclipse should autocomplete without any further action on your part I think (it's been a long time since I had to setup Eclipse from scratch).

Re: css problem with ftl ????
Hi Heidi:
Here's something else you might try:
1) Edit ~images/style.css to add something that you will recognize. For
example, change the #wrapper background to green;
2) Point your browser to http://www.olagos.eu/images/style.css and
observe that the change is in place
3) Next, point your browser to http://localhost:80/images/style.css (or
whatever port you are running on locally) and observe that the change is
in place
[It should be visible from both locations. If not, then that narrows
down the problem]
4) Go to another system and another browser and try
http://localhost:80/images/style.css
[Again, the change should be visible in style.css using a browser to
view the file. If not, then that narrows the problem down.]
5) Forget about trying to figure this out and center your wrapper this way:
#wrapper {
width:952px;
margin:0px auto; -- note the use of only 1 auto
text-align:left;
padding:15px;
border:1px dashed #333;
background-color: #BBB;
}
Hope that helps.
