Wouldn't setting 'form-encoding' to UTF-8 do the same?

Are you using Tomcat?  If you do some searches, you'll probably turn up
other postings on this topic.  I can't remember all the ins & outs, but
supposedly the browsers incorrectly supply encoding information in their
requests to Tomcat (ours were POST requests), and Tomcat by default assumes
ISO-8859-1 encoding for the submitted form data.  This gives you garbage
data for anything outside plain ASCII, if your browser sends it in UTF-8.
I found some webapp filter class that works with Tomcat to coerce the
character encoding (or Tomcat's perception of the encoding) for all
requests to UTF-8, to match all of our pages and forms.  I can send you our
filter and the web.xml entries separately; if you want them, just e-mail
me.  There may be better solutions now with Tomcat 5, but we have just kept
on using this old filter, and it seems to do the trick.

(Now that I think about it, I think this filter is/was supplied with the
Tomcat source distribution, maybe.  Look for the SetCharacterEncodingFilter
class.)

Here's one I haven't seen before:

I have an HTML form with the following input tag:



The ’ is supposed to translate to this form of the single quote:  '

However this string is being stored in the database, as well as the object
bean, with jumbled up characters.  Somewhere in the submit, the integrity
of
this character is being lost.

I made some debug statements in the flowscript that handles the submit and
this is the value of that radio button if it is selected:

"PatientΓ??s Page"

I tried also changing the ’ to the actual character itself, and the
hex representation, but the same result happens.Has anyone seen
anything
like this and would know what is happening?

Re: Users history for session

2004-06-23 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield
We do something like this to create a "cookie crumb trail" through our
application.  Ours isn't a complete history, but instead a Stack that is
truncated whenever the user re-visits a page already in the list.  Anyway,
we basically just keep a Stack variable with the request URIs in a session
attribute, as you suggest.

Should I store each request uri as a session attribute?

Hello,

I am trying to edit xsp files in Eclipse using the sunBow plugin.
I have added in Window/Preferences/sunBow/XML Editor, in the
Content-Assistant Schema Associations frame, the xsp file extension. For
this file extension, I have configured an associated schema :
- Namespace-Prefix : xsp
- Schema : /home/ahe/Downloadedprograms/xsp.xsd

Hereafter is the content of this xsd file :

I have then restarted Eclipse.
When I open a xsp file, the xsp content is still not "recognized".

Does someone know how to fix this ? Is sunBow relevant for xsp edition ?

Thanks for your help.

Regards.

Re: dynamic query help

2004-06-01 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




off the top of my head, start with this (easiest) to get it working.  If it
performs well, you can leave it like this, but for better performance take
a look at http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/xsp/esql.html#Groups
which will let you use a single join query to accomplish your goal.

...
select id, area from ukareas order by area

  

  
  

  select county from county, navmap
  where navmap.cid = county.id
  and aid= 
  order by county

Hi list,

I have this ESQL query to my DB:

select id, area from ukareas order by area

This just returns the column rows "ID" and "AREA"

I also have this table which maps tables ukareas and county

create table navmap (
 aid integer,
 cid integer,
 primary key (aid,cid),
 foreign key (id) references ukareas(id),
 foreign key (id) references county(id)
);

I then have this query:

select county from county, navmap where navmap.cid =
county.id and aid= 'X ' order by county

Where 'X' is the result of ukareas.id column, so essentially I'd like
to do something like

for (int i = 0; i < id.length; i++) {
//where id = ukareas.id
 select county from county, navmap where navmap.cid
=
county.id and aid= 'id[i]' order by
county
}
  essentially I'd be outputing something like:

South - East
 Surrey, Kent, etc...
Anglia
 Norfolk, Suffolk, etc...

I have a very, very rough idea of how I could do this but need some
pointers.

Many thanks all.

Jason

C2.1.5 - build.sh bug

2004-05-25 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




There is a bug in the build.sh build script.  Sorry if this has been
covered before; this is my first build of a 2.1.x system.

The build.sh uses /bin/sh, which on Solaris and other traditional *nix is
typically Bourne shell.  The build.sh is not compatible with Bourne shell,
however.  I didn't check it for all errors, but the line
  export ANT_HOME=tools

breaks Bourne shell.  The correct syntax is
  ANT_HOME=tools
  export ANT_HOME

Perhaps the INSTALL.txt should mention this, and some workarounds?  I
simply changed the build.sh to use /bin/bash, which works on my system.

Re: Extending ESQL - how (if at all)

2004-05-13 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield

There are a couple of ways I think are easier to extend ESQL.  In particular, I think it is useful to have all of your extensions in a separate place, outside the jar file.  Otherwise, it is easy to lose track of the changes you have made.  So one option is to bring the esql.xsl outside the jar, and change cocoon.xconf to point to the new location (I assume that it still works this way in 2.1, I am still using 2.0.x).  To take it one step better, create your own stylesheet that contains your single template, and use  to import the esql.xsl.  Again, change cocoon.xconf to use your stylesheet.

If you start getting a lot of these, you might consider creating a "wrapper" logicsheet.  In essence you create a stylesheet with your own namespace, like "jeff.sql".  The logicsheet defines or redefines templates as needed, and simply creates ESQL tags to re-use the esql functionality.  You can have one template that merely passes forward to ESQL any tags that your logicsheet doesn't explicitly redefine.   This has advantages and disadvantages; one disadvantage is that you have to copy over any named templates from ESQL that you need to make your custom templates work, e.g., "get-nested-string".  In your case, you are using a couple of named templates, but I wonder if you could do a wrapper template like:

  ().getTime()


I don't have the esql.xsl right in front of me, so I don't know if this works or not.  If not, maybe ((java.sql.Timestamp)()).getTime().  You have to get a bit creative

We have a logicsheet like this, that gives us various extended features.  For instance, it handles all of the connection pool stuff, so that I don't have that explicitly in each of my XSP pages.  I also used it to get a "short form" for update queries, e.g., 

        update blah set blah = blah;


and it does other stuff, too.  If you are interested in this, here's a skeleton:



        xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
        xmlns:xsp="http://apache.org/xsp"
        xmlns:esql="http://apache.org/cocoon/SQL/v2"
        xmlns:jeff.sql="http://jeff.org/jeff/sql"
        version="1.0"
>


 match="@*|node()" priority="-1">
        
                 select="@*|node()"/>
        




 match="jeff.sql:*" priority="-0.9">
         name="esql:{local-name()}">

        Subject:        Extending ESQL - how (if at all)


Hello all.

I'd like to use XSP/ESQL to retrieve a date from a database (might be Oracle or
MySQL) in "Unix epoch" format, i.e. milliseconds since 1/1/1970. Unfortunately,
that's not a format available in java.text.SimpleDateFormat, so it doesn't seem
possible to retrieve it using the  tag.

I know that this could be done with a separate XSL transform, but for
performance reasons, I'd prefer not to have to convert back to a Date object and
then back to a String representation; I'd like to work with the Date object
(actually java.sql.Timestamp) retrieved from the database.

So I've tried adding this to esql.xsl:

returns the value of the given column as milliseconds since the
epoch.

="esql:row-results//esql:get-epoch|esql:call-results//esql:get-epoch">
  .getTimestamp
().getTime()


And here's the part of my XSP that uses the new tag:



A few questions:

1. Apparently I'm missing a step somewhere, because I'm just getting the
 tag passed straight through when the pipeline runs. (Yes,
everything else works.) I've restarted Tomcat, rebuilt the databases block, and
copied the new databases-block.jar into WEB-INF/lib, to no avail. What do I need
to do to get this change reflected in running code?

2. Am I doing this the hard way? Is there an easier solution that I'm missing?
(Remember that I really don't want to do it in a separate transform, for
performance reasons.)

3. If this actually is a worthwhile idea, how would I go about submitting it?

(Details: Cocoon 2.1.4, Tomcat 4.1.29, Sun Java 1.4.2-b28 on SuSE Linux 9.0,
kernel 2.4.21.)

Thanks in advance for any help.





Re: Dynamic connection to the database

2004-05-05 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




What are you using:  ESQL, SQLTransformer, ...?

For ESQL at least, and I imagine for SQL Transformer, you don't have to use
a pool connection.  You can dynamically provide the jdbc connection
parameters.  The downside is that you make a new connection on every
request (unlike a traditional client-server application where your login
session is maintained from page to page).  Also, you have to maintain db
accounts for everyone who needs to log in.

We had a similar need in our application.  I did an extension to ESQL that
uses a java SQL parser to take apart each query, and rewrite it to add in
the auditing information (after looking to see if the tables in question
have the auditing fields), using the web app login name instead of a
separate Oracle account.  That way we can continue to use the pool
connection.  This was the hard way, but it does the job.

No, it's absolutely a good fix/work around. The explicite cast to string 
avoids the overhead of the RTF, especially because a RTF can only be 
used as string, not as node set:

I agree.  I wrote docs when I was relatively new to Cocoon, which helped me learn more about Cocoon and the topics I was documenting, and let me write docs from the point of view of someone who didn't already understand all of the internals.  We should encourage this!

In the absence of a fourth choice, I'll vote for "C".  My suggestion is, if you want to help out by writing documentation, write it on the topics that confuse(d) you.  If enough folks did this, we'd have all the bases covered, and the consensus approach would emerge automatically.  In an ideal world

Re: Better alternative to ESQL?

2004-05-03 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




FWIW, that conversation did not include everyone using Cocoon and/or
reading the list.  It may be that the folks joining in the conversation
were those with similar approaches.

My attitude is the best tool for the job is the one that meets your needs.
Since many of the tools recently mentioned were not available 1-2 years
ago, we developed a lot of our own designs to tackle the same sorts of
problems in our environment.  We make heavy use of XSP, logicsheets, and
ESQL.  At this point our designs are pretty mature and, of course, are a
custom fit for our needs.

If you have established software that is working, you probably have a good
idea where the most "pain" is - where the code is difficult to modify and
extend, where you spend the most time, etc.  Or you may be adding new
features with very different requirements than before.  In these cases, it
is probably worth examining the new tools to see if they offer a solution
to your particular problems.  Otherwise, if it ain't broke  In our
case, I am interested in some of the tools that help with forms and form
validation, which is an area we are very weak on, so I may examine these in
the future.  However, on site navigation, layouting, etc., I feel our
designs are working very well, so I probably won't look for something else.

Here's my vote for XSP:  it is general-purpose, powerful, flexible, and
extensible (with all of Java available to you).  It doesn't solve a
specific problem, but it can be used to solve almost any problem.

There seems to be a very a strong "current of opinion" on the list at
present (April 2004) saying that XSP is not really a suitable component
of a "well archictectured" Cocoon application.  My major use of it has
been in the development of complex database reporting systems; using
ESQL for the bulk of the work and adding in Java code to do any
necessary non-SQL calculations.

If the use of XSP (and, therefore, I assume, ESQL) is not espoused any
longer, what is the "equivalent but better" methodology for tackling
this type of work, and where is/are the corresponding examples/docs on
the Cocoon sites?

Thanks
Derek

Re: document() in xsl:variable -> low performance

2004-05-03 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Ouch!  I make heavy use of the document() function for aggregation.
Sitemap aggregation would be a pain to maintain, because the stuff I need
to aggregate comes rather late in the pipeline (layout information),
whereas the generation and early transformation steps can vary a lot.
XInclude/CInclude could work, but I like the cleanness and flexibility of
using the document() function.

Does it help any to take another variable on some subtree of the variable?

Does it make a difference if you use xsltc?

Don't use document(). Include the document in the sitemap by using
sitemap aggregation (if it is a fixed number of known files) or x/cinclude.

Re: xsp and selected option: HELP

2004-04-30 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Are you just trying to retain the selected option if there is an error on a
different part of the form?

I think you need to change this line:


to instead be


  if (().equals()) {
selected
  }

HI list,

I'm using XSP, ESQL/SQL and simple forms I guess, the problem is this,
I have some select lists and I want to pass the "selected" attribute to
the one the user selects:

one 
two 
three 

In my site map I have:



And my XSP :

 
 Please
select
 
 select id,
code from pcodeareas order by
code
 



   

   

   

   




 
 


I'm guessing that I could do this with a logic sheet? Or should I move
this to woody / cforms?

Many thanks all.

Re: Deal with variable page content??????????????

2004-04-23 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




I don't know which Cocoon technologies you are currently using, but this
hsould be fairly straightforward in Java (using XSP).  You can ask the
request for a list of all parameters, and iterate through the list and take
the appropriate actions.

If you need help getting started with XSP, there is some good documentation
on the Cocoon site.

Basically content of the page is generalized from the database.


There are variable number of user inputs. Each input can be
-textfields, radio, select list etc.


Names of these inputs are inquired from database, and transformed by a
xstl because I know all possible names of them.


But I find it is difficult to retrieve these input because I don't know
how many there are and what they are from the submitted page.


Would anybody give me some idea


Many thanks!!!

Re: XSP and logicsheets namespaces inclusions

2004-04-21 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Olivier,

we are using C2.0.3, and struggled with this problem for over a year.  We
have created many logicsheets, many of them using each other, and this
problem was frequent and frustrating.  The problem seems to be caused by
some kind of race condition, and we learned we could reproduce it reliably
by hitting the same (uncompiled) page twice quickly, i.e., the second
request before the compilation is complete.

 The fix for us turned out to be a cocoon.xconf setting which was recently
discussed on the list as buggy.  :(  The setting is the use-store setting
for the xslt-processor.  Apparently setting this to true improves
performance, but is known to be buggy.  Well, setting it to false fixed the
bug for us.

  


  

Please let me know if this works for you.

Hi again,

I have an XSP that includes some logicsheets. Some of these logicsheets
also includes a logicsheet (xsp-request for example).

But some times (10% of the time) after a restart of the server, a
compilation error occurs, caused by the xsp-request logicsheet not
beeing translated, and  elements appearing in the java
source of the XSP.
Most of the time, the XSP compiles without any problem.

What could be the problem ?
Is it bad to use a logicsheet in another ?
Is there a special order in declaring logicsheets namespaces ?

Thanks,

Re: ESQl and Stored Procedures

2004-04-15 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Carlos,

just for background, can you do a simple select or update query using ESQL?
I ask only because you aren't getting a compile error, which you would
normally expect when an appropriate class isn't available.  What this
reminds me of is what happens when the Oracle jdbc classes aren't loaded in
the web application.  The JDBC stuff (through some sort of black magic I
don't know a lot about) figures out which class to load based on your db
url and then goes to load it.  Maybe that is where the error is coming
from.  If so, then you shouldn't be able to do a simple query either.

If that is the case, then you need this section in your web.xml file:
  
load-class

  
  oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver

  

I guess another possibility (which would also prevent simple queries) is if
your pool is not set up correctly, e.g., it has an incorrect db url.

If you are able to do simple queries, then it may be something more
specific to doing a stored procedure call, which unfortunately I have no
experience with (through ESQL, anyway).

Could it be that the  embedded in the  block is the
culprit? I read somwhere that that is not a wise combination. (which is
logical as in an xsp:logic you don't need an xsp:expr).

Please note: I did not try this, and have never used the esql:call. But
it seems
that all tags are closed - so this might just be it.

You could in stead prepare all your calls in advance in a logic block
and call on
those strings when needed - outside of the logic block with .

Just my 0.02c (and that's not much).

Re: Including Fragments

2004-04-14 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




In general, all the XML tools require well-formed XML, even for fragments.
The only way around it is to work in java, concatenating strings, and then
running the whole string through the XML parser, which is silly to do
without a pretty specific need.

It would be a lot easier to use XSLT for this, and keep your headers &
footers together for well-formedness.  There are a zillion different
approaches.  Here's one:

file:/static/test.body.xml

  The Body


file:/static/test.layout.xsl
http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">

Hi,

We are currently migrating our website from a pure JSP environment to
Cocoon and have run into a problem.

The majority of our webpages have a header and footer, both of which are
fragments of xhtml documents, that we would like to include on each page.
We have tried using the CInclude transformer to include these elements, but
cocoon seems to be upset that the files are not well formed (see error
message below).

org.apache.cocoon.ProcessingException: Failed to execute pipeline.:
file:/static/headerTest.html:6:1:org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: XML
document structures must start and end within the same entity.

We have also tried the XInclude transformer without success.  Is there a
way to include fragments of XHTML/XML documents in larger documents to
create one well-formed document?

I have included some sample code below.



file:/static/test.html

http://apache.org/cocoon/include/1.0";>
   
   The Body
   


file:/static/headerTest.html

Re: Sql type for request parameter with multiple values

I doubt it.  If you are doing this using SQL actions or the like, you'll
probably have to write your own action to do the conversion.  Otherwise,
consider using XSP+ESQL or XSP+SQL Transformer.  However you cut it, it
looks like you'll have to write some Java code.

Ah, you are having an XSL problem.  If you look at what xsl:value-of does,
it turns things into strings.  What you want is to copy the contents, which
can be done many different ways.  In your immediate case, you can do

Re: Conditionnal esql-query ?

2004-04-05 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Because you can't :)

Keep in mind what is really happening here.  The ESQL logicsheet is turning
all of this into java code.  What kind of java code probably happens with
the esql:query tag?  Well, it probably needs to obtain a String which it
can then pass into JDBC as the query, righ?.  Now, try this in java:

String query = if (...) { ... } else { ... }

See the problem?

However, the problem suggests the solution.  You CAN do it, but only if you
make your if/else into an expression, using the question mark operator,
e.g.,

(id_blog_news == null) ? ... : ... 


Better, though is to just pull the entire query and if/else block outside
the esql code, e.g.,

String sql;
if (id_blog_news == null) {
  sql = "SELECT .";
} else {
  sql = 
}

then you can do

  sql



You can also put your if-else around the entire esql:execute-query block,
that is, you can have one esql:connection around all of your individual
queries, for what small savings in code that is.

Finally, though, keep in mind that your dynamic SQL code potentially
provides opportunities for hackers to modify your SQL in ways you did not
intend by what they supply in the request parameters.  So you might be
better off going back to your first code that does an if/else around the
whole SQL block, and using  instead of inlining SQL using
.

Re: HTML-Code from XML-File in XSL

2004-04-05 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




What serializer are you using?  If you use the default (html) serializer,
the browser will display the html elements.  If you use the xml serializer,
you will see XML code in most browsers.

Hi,

How can i generate and transform xml via xsl with displaying HTML-Code out
of the XML properly in the browser.
Actually it displays the html-code in the xml-file as source-code (escaped)
in the Browser.

Thanx,
nils

Try

and instead of

Some folks on this list will gripe at you if you post non-Cocoon-specific

You could try adding this template, although I am dubious it will work:

Another possibility is that namespaces are getting attached to the

FWIW, I don't think the namespace declarations affect behavior on any of

the code you sent even strips out all of the html and leaves only the

the xml code that appears within the html tags ;-)

sitemap resources (was: Cocoon chapters for download)

2004-03-31 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




This may be off-topic, but a line in Chapter 6 caught my eye:
"Currently, the only place in Cocoon where you can use sitemap resources is
for redirects."

Is this a new restriction in C2.1?  I'm currently using resources like
macros in my  clauses via

I have been in contact with SAMS, the publisher of our Cocoon book. They
already provide a free download of Chapter 6 (A User's look at the Cocoon
Architecture). They have now agreed to provide Chapter 1 (An Introduction
to
Internet Applications) as a free download. Chapter 1 basically details the
history of building Internet/Web applications and outlines why Cocoon is
the
best choice when considering a platform today.

Chapters 1 and 6 are available here:

http://www.s-und-n.de/sunshine/ccos/CBA-Chapter1.pdf
http://www.s-und-n.de/sunshine/ccos/CBA-Chapter6.pdf

Currently the SAMS/NewRiders Site only has chapter 6.

Re: session:getxml in esql Problem

2004-03-31 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




I don't know the session context stuff, but I suspect if you look in the
generated java code you'd see a lot of java code stuck in the middle of
your query.  The query can handle things like
java_expr where java_expr evaluates sensibly to a
String, but I suspect the  does not create a simple
expression, but probably more like several lines of code.

Re: ESQL INSERT

2004-03-30 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




1. Check your logs, perhaps the error message in one of them.  You might
also try removing your  element; perhaps it is masking
an exception that you'd otherwise see.
2. Make sure your pool, xsp, and esql setup is correct; can you do a simple
SELECT query successfully in place of the INSERT?
3. You say the query works by hand; are you logging in using the same
account as your pool user?  Otherwise you might have a permissions problem.
4. Is the code below copied from your source?  There is a missing left
parenthesis on your column list.
5. Is TODAY() a function?  You appear to be trying to insert the String
'TODAY()' into a date field.  Just use bare TODAY() as you would in your
SQL statement.

The immediate problem I see is in how you are passing your String
parameters into the SQL statement.  The strings you are passing in do not
end up in the SQL statement with quotes around them (unless the user is
entering them on the form!), so the database is probably getting syntax
errors, which I think you should be seeing.  You have two choices to fix
this:

Each place you have an expression like news_title

1. (potentially a security risk)  change to
'news_title'

2. (much better) change to
  news_title

If you are using ESQL, all of these can be set dynamically by using java

easier in SQL transformer.  You'll have to pass in everything every time,

How is it possible to avoid setting the user/password for the jdbc

In addition, how is it possible to set a different  programmatically

Re: how do you set up your version control?

2004-03-17 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




We keep our entire webapp in CVS, including the jars.  We work with the
project under Eclipse, using the Tomcat plugin.  Eclipse does a terrific
job with CVS.  The only stuff we don't currently keep in CVS (but we want
to eventually) are the Tomcat conf files and supporting libraries
directories (e.g., common/endorsed).  The advantage to keeping the jars
under version control is pretty obvious once you start dealing with
upgrades to various components, such as jdbc driver jar files, etc., or if
you ever tweak resources stored in the cocoon.jar (e.g., logicsheets).

We also have a few java classes, and having the entire project in Eclipse,
we can modify the source in WEB-INF/src and have it automatically compile
to WEB-INF/classes.  In this case, only the source gets stored in CVS, and
Eclipse recompiles the code whenever you check out modified source from
CVS.  This would require a little extra work if we built our .war file
directly from CVS, but we use the Sysdeo Tomcat plug-in to build the .war
file from Eclipse, and it gets the compiled stuff just fine.

How are people setting up version control (CVS, SVN) for their projects?
Do you just keep your content (sitemap, config files, stylesheets, etc)
under version control or do you keep the entire app, including the
cocoon jars there too?

Re: binding params in dynamic queries in ESQL

2004-03-06 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield

Well, for what it's worth, using Oracle's jdbc drivers and putting a second query in the esql:query block results in this error:
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00911: invalid character 

I separated the two queries using ";", which is presumably the invalid character Oracle is complaining about.  I can't imagine any other way of separating the two queries.  Any thoughts?

I can't find anything in the java docs for java.sql.Connection.prepareStatement() that specifically forbids having multiple queries, so you may be right about it being driver dependent.

Our app seems to be pretty safe from this particular attack, regardless.  We actually run the query through another parser (too long to explain why) that results in only one query getting executed, regardless of what is in the query block (I had to work around this to get a good test and produce the exception noted above).  I also looked hard (since I was looking) at every possible way I could mess with the query parameters to modify the way the SQL executes, but it appears that we do enough stuff to the request parameters (stripping quotes, parsing into integers, etc.) that there isn't much hacking possible.  (Hopefully nobody will take this as a challenge, but notice I'm NOT listing any URLs for my app here!)

Of course, all of our update/delete queries are using bound parameters!

AFAIK - not necessarily ...as with all JDBC stuff
this probably depends on the driver implementation :-/

I fear you are wrong...
...but please try and report back.

In general:

For a safe design request values should
NEVER appear inside an esql:query tag
except when surrounded by esql:parameter!

I thought that ESQL used JDBC prepared statements, regardless of whether
you have bound parameters; while it won't protect you fully, won't it throw
an exception if it receives two queries (which this attack results in)?
Perhaps I'm wrong on this point.  It isn't ideal, but if your dynamic SQL
is only doing selects, and only against data that isn't sensitive, then the
worst case scenario is perhaps an attack that slows your server down (and
the attacker would have to know a good deal about your schema to do that).
If I'm wrong about this JDBC behavior, then I probably need to look at some
stuff, too!

Oops, changed my example without changing all references - myVar is
supposed to be bar obviously.

I don't have many soapboxes but this is one of them - I have inherited

Re: binding params in dynamic queries in ESQL

2004-03-05 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Rebecca,

It might take some time to prove it, but I'm pretty sure you can't do what
you are trying to do with ESQL.  I've gotten pretty deep into the ESQL
logicsheet, and it looks for specific tags in specific relationship to
other tags, e.g., it will look for the esql:parameter tags as children of
an esql:query tag.  Since the logicsheet knows nothing of your java logic,
it will generate parameter setting code for each esql:parameter tag,
regardless of whether you manage to put logic around the tag to switch it
on or off in the query itself.  So whatever you do, you will get errors if
you try to have a dynamic number of parameters in a single esql block,
because the parameter setting code will not match the query.  (The
existence of the parameter tag creates java in more than one place, but
your xsp:logic conditional java code will only be copied into the query
area - assuming the logicsheet will even honor those blocks.)

So, here are your choices as I see them:
1.  Abandon parameter binding, and just build the SQL string dynamically
(which is what we do with this situation)
2. Create a separate ESQL block for every possible combination of
parameters, then choose which ESQL block to run via java logic
3. Extend/modify the ESQL logicsheet to meet your needs; you can get the
esql.xsl out of your cocoon.jar file, modify it, then modify cocoon.xconf
to point to your modified logicsheet
4. Don't use ESQL (would SQL transformer work for you?)

Sorry I don't have an easy solution for you.

-Christopher

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

I would like to build a SQL statement dynamically based on whether not not
certain parameters have been sent, but also use bound parameters in my SQL

I seem to be having troubles getting the parsing  quite right.

To give a better idea of what I'm trying to do, I've included my code from

Re: Passing values into an XSP logic sheet

2004-03-04 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Andrew,

sorry I didn't reply to your previous mail - I got very busy yesterday.  I
looked at the files you sent, and I saw some things, but it looks like
you've moved on.

In your current posting, I think the problem is the order of execution.  In
your logicsheet, you are putting in code to look up the artist details in
an xsp:logic block directly inside the xsp:page block.  This puts all of
that code at the class level, so it is executed when the page object is
first instantiated.  The code that provides the artistID for lookup, on the
other hand, is inside the 'page' element, which means it is put in the
generate() method of the page class, which gets called to generate the
page.  By the time it is called, though, all of your artist detail
variables have already been set.

Here's a rewrite/simplification that may help:

1. XSP Page (snippet)


http://apache.org/xsp";
 xmlns:artistDetails="
http://www.beyarecords.com/artistDetails/1.0";
 xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";
 xmlns:util="http://apache.org/xsp/util/2.0";
 >
  
 
  int artistID =
Integer.parseInt();
 

 

artistID
 

...


2. XSP Logic Sheet

http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
   xmlns:xsp="http://apache.org/xsp";
   xmlns:util="http://apache.org/xsp/util/2.0";
   xmlns:artistDetails="http://www.beyarecords.com/artistDetails/1.0";
   version="1.0">


  



  test.Artist
  test.Base64



  



  
int artistID = Integer.parseInt();
Artist artist = Artist.getArtist(artistID);
String artist_name = artist.getArtistName();
  
  
artist_name
  


...

Re: Re[2]: Very strange IE problem

2004-03-03 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Bastian,

here's the essence of the code, implemented in XSP.  We have a sitemap
entry that generates from this XSP whenever the URL is of a pattern
"/pleasewait/*".  We can then do a pleasewait before any page we want by
simply putting "/pleasewait" in front of the usual URL.

The key line is the one that adds a "refresh" header to the response, with
a timeout of zero.  (This is the same mechanism that website use to
redirect you to a new URL, but usually with a timeout of 5-10 seconds.)
When this page loads (in every browser we've tried), it displays and then
immediately times out and calls the new URL.  While it is waiting for a
response from the server, it is still displaying the Please Wait message,
usually along with a busy cursor.  As soon as the new page is returned from
the server, it is displayed in the browser.

-Christopher



  String thisURL = request.getRequestURI();
  String query = request.getQueryString();
  int start = thisURL.indexOf("/pleasewait");
  String newURL = thisURL.substring(0, start) + thisURL.substring(start
+ "/pleasewait".length());
  newURL = response.encodeURL(newURL);
  if (query != null) {
newURL = newURL + "?" + query;
  }
  response.addHeader("refresh", "0;URL=" + newURL);

  String message = request.getParameter("pwmsg");



  Please Wait


  Please Wait
  
if (notEmpty(message)) {
  message
} else {
  We are requesting your information...
}

And, by the way, could you tell something about the implementation of
the "please wait" page? How does the page know when the generation
process is ready?

I'm sorry, I don't understand your question.  If I change the serializer to
html, we'd get garbage at best, since the input XML is FO code.

We have another page in the application that takes a long time to load
because it retrieves a large amount of information from a remote system.
That (html) page also uses the please wait mechanism, and has no problems
on IE.

Our problem doesn't seem to match what you describe; when the problem is
occurring, we can use the same browser window and surt to another system
where we can open a PDF just fine.

Also, I forgot to mention that the problem only occurs when going against
non-SSL servers (e.g., Tomcat on our development workstations) or against
an SSL server with a test certificate (e.g., the test certificate generated

I met a familiar problem in pdf before,always happened when I open several

when the ie can't open cocoon's pdf,it can't open other pdf too.
 I found not only cocoon's pdf,but also other pdf files open by ie.
So I think the pdf's problem is some resource out.
Just reboot then everything ok.
So if you got the same problem"open several times and then the pdf
disappear",and want to avoid this problem,try to enlarge your memery,it
will
be stable then before.

I don't know if this is related, but we have a similar problem with a page
that generates PDFs.  The generation take a while, so we have a "please
wait" page that displays and does a refresh to get the generated page when
it is ready.  IE won't open the PDF, and gives a strange error message.
This definitely only started happening recently (last six months, maybe?),
and we believe it is due to some security patch or other.  However,
changing the security settings for IE to the most permissive doesn't fix

Take a break,I think it probably security probelm for ie6
because of MS system open several property by default,like active-x...,so
it
is easy attacked by virus hacker..
so from ie6 and oe6,MS close lots of unsafety feature,users must open it by
themselves.
so pls try to set the safety of ie6 to lowest,and open all feature closed
by
dedault,then try again.

Re: Passing values into an XSP logic sheet

2004-03-03 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




You can have your logicsheet code read it directly from the sitemap
parameters, or for a more general solution pass it in through your
template.  I assume you are using ESQL?  Then you need something like the
following:

logicsheet:


  


  select * from blah where id =



  




XSP:


  int  myID = [code to get parameter value here];



  myID


.

Hi,
I have created a custom logic sheet for which I have a hard coded value
which is used to pull data from a postgreSQL database. How can I pass a
value into a logicsheet? At the moment the flow is:

Generated HTML <-- stylesheet <-- XSP page <-- XSP Logicsheet. From the
sitemap I can read the parameter I need into the XSP page, but how can I
get it into the XSP Logicsheet?

many thanks in advance

Andrew

Re: ESQL update and select statements in the same map:match problem

2004-02-26 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




You can create an XSP action, which is much easier than writing it in java,
and you can still use ESQL.

Add this namespace to your action:  xmlns:action=
"http://apache.org/cocoon/action/1.0";

Here's the sitemap entry:

thnx for the hint

i have never touch flow until now so action is te solution i'll choose.
but my xsp use ESQL to reach the connection pool an update the content

Re: ESQL update and select statements in the same map:match problem

2004-02-25 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




I don't know anything about the internal workings of the map:aggregate, but
I would guess it is not waiting for the first part to complete before
opening a connection for the second part.  This would make sense, for
performance reasons, and there is no particular reason for cocoon to expect
the parts to be dependent on each other.  So I don't think it is
necessarily a bug, nor a caching mechanism, just that map:aggregate doesn't
imply sequential processing.

Just curious, should the map:aggregate have an "element" attribute
specifying the root element for the combined output?  Also, what does
"strip-root='yes'" do?  I couldn't find it in the documentation
(http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/concepts/sitemap.html#Aggregating).

You could probably make things sequential (and still achieve aggregation)
by using either a cinclude transformer, or even more simply by using an
XSLT transform step with the document() function, e.g.,
...

  


  

...

with a sitemap like



or some such.

hi people

i have the folow code :


 
 


where i call 2 .xsp

1. update_point.xsp
where i update a record in my database

2. get_point.xsp
where i get the updated record

the problem is that this aggregation update the database record (i have
check the content) but generate output (get_point) with the before update
values

is this a caching mechanism case, is it possible to bypass this problem or
it's just a bug?

Re: reusing a result set with esql

2004-02-18 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Adrian,

I'm not familiar with RDF, and I can't say I have a clear picture of what
you are trying to do, but I think you might be able to do everything you
need in XSLT, after the XSP stage.  I do a lot of cross-referencing between
lists, etc., in an XSLT transform step after generating the raw data from
the database.  If you want to generate two different bits of output from a
single database result, that is even easier.  XSLT is very powerful for
this type of thing.

Good luck!

Well, I'm experimenting with XUL as frontend and Cocoon as backend. Mozilla

XUL trees like RDF so I use Cocoon on the backend to generate it. When I
want
to generate the RDF/XML for a list of Partners, the RDF contains :

* as many  as there are rows (Partners) in the
ResultSet.
* then an  in order to predicate the fact that those entities are
part of a list. Every item of the  is a _reference_ to the defined

entity.

Now that you mentioned it I realize that it is possible to not use
references
but textually include the entities  in the . In
my
case that would work and I will use it tomorrow :) But if one wants to
describe in the same RDF/XML several different lists or graphs of the same
entities, using references becomes unavoidable. So iterating through the
ResultSet several times also becomes necessary, I think.

I am quite new to XSP/logicsheets but they seem so wonderfully simple; I'll

take a look anyway to the esql logicsheet to see if I can make something of

it.

Ok, I see your point, I must do it myself -- I was hoping there was a
"bultin" way to do it. To me, it looks like a pretty basic
functionality: for instance, generating an RDF/XML containing a list of
rows:

* first, generating all existing entities(rows)  (=> one iteration)
* then adding the sequence (another iteration needed)

I don't see how that could be done in one iteration only.

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer :)

Re: [once again] best way to set http header encoding

2004-02-17 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Yes, I agree, the http header should be set, particularly when already
providing the content type meta tag.  The header is much easier for
downstream filters to read and change, if necessary, anyway.  And the
encoding info is very necessary when displaying text using extended
character sets.

that makes sense

The Tomcat changes/fixes related to this problem are released since
Tomcat 5.0.15, and also ready for Tomcat 4.1.30 (not released yet, cvs
version).

This is however a rather tricky situation, and I think we should at
least have the possibility to add the serializer encoding to the http
header also, and possibly even make it the default behaviour (via a
config option in web.xml?)

allright

If I find the time I'll provide a patch to this, because it is a very
serious problem atm. I was investigating problem and solution already
myself when you posted it to the maillist, because I can't work with the
Apache directive, I will explain why.

The default encoding in the header was added not 'that' long ago[1]. I'm
using Tomcat 4.1.29 now, and it *does* set a default encoding to
ISO-8859-1. So in a way you're lucky you're still using Tomcat 4.1.12,
because with 4.1.29, the apache directive has no effect when connecting
to Tomcat :-) This is why I'm looking for a good solution in Cocoon...

We see and will see this issue more and more, as Bruno mentioned, but
not only because of the browser implementation. In my opinion this is
caused by the changes in this default encoding behaviour when using
Tomcat. The very latest changes should change the behaviour again, so
the upcoming Tomcat 4.1.30 should behave different again. I don't know
what exactly the difference will be, this is wat the changelog for
4.1.30 says:
" Restore the ability to explicitly set the charset to iso-latin-1. Now,
you won't get the charset unless you ask for it (so no more
Content-Type: image/gif; charset=iso-8859-1).  However, if you call
response.setCharacterEncoding("iso-9959-1"), you now get it in the
response."

So conclusion:
Somewhere between Tomcat 4.1.12 en 4.1.27 the default encoding behaviour
has changed (my guess is 4.1.17), and there's currently no way in Cocoon
to set the http header encoding so it matches the encoding of the
serializer (and meta tag). Anyone upgrading an old Tomcat will have this
problem, unless using ISO-8859-1. The upcoming Tomcat 4.1.30 should
change the behaviour again, but I'm not sure in what way.

Re: [once again] best way to set http header encoding

2004-02-16 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield

there may be no "best way".  You can probably fix this issue at several different levels; Cocoon; Tomcat; Apache (if using it), etc.  In Cocoon, the easiest would probably be an Action.  It can be dirt simple.  If you want to use an xsp-action, it could be something like this:

         xmlns:xsp="http://apache.org/xsp"
                xmlns:action="">"http://apache.org/cocoon/action/1.0">
        
                
                        response.setHeader("Content-Type", "text/html; charset=UTF-8");
                
        


sitemap entry (put in the pipeline for each matcher you want to set the encoding for):
         type="serverpages" src="">"path-to-action.xml">

It could work.

[SORRY, ONCE AGAIN MY QUESTION, BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ANSWER]

hi there

i wonder that cocoons serializer just writes a meta-tag with the 
encoding in the html-page. it doesn't do this in the http-header.

therefore apache set the http-header to his standard-encoding and 
"destroys" the correct encoding of the response, because most browsers 
ignore the meta-tag if the http-header-encoding is set.

so i need to set the http-header-encoding with cocoon and ask you all, 
whats the best way to do this. are there any actions, logicsheets or 
something else?

thanks and greetings

Re: Cocoon XSP Documentation : Access to servlet object and core logicsheets

2004-02-13 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




1.  The request, context, and I believe the response object are declared
and initialized for you, and can be used from any xsp:logic block.  The
request object is "request", etc.  The session object is available from the
request (request.getSession()), or is declared as "session" if you use the
xsp-session logicsheet.  These objects are Cocoon implementations, not the
HttpServletRequest, etc. objects (look for Request, Session, etc. in the
Cocoon API docs: http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/apidocs/index.html

You can learn a lot about the environment of an XSP program by looking at
the class all XSP programs inherit from:  XSPGenerator (again, see the API
docs).  You can also learn a lot by looking at the java source generated
from your XSP pages (location varies depending on your servlet engine).

I'm not sure where there might be good documentation on these kinds of
basics, but perhaps one of the books available on Cocoon would help - just
search Amazon for "Cocoon".

2.  Some logicsheets are documented on the Cocoon documentation website
(http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/xsp/index.html), but many are not.
As with so many open source projects, documentation lags until volunteers
make up the gap.  (I wrote a couple - it was a good way to learn more about
XSP and logicsheets.)  For logicsheets not documented, your best bet is the
source code.  In this case, you want to look in your cocoon.jar file for
the file "util.xsl", which is just an XSLT stylesheet that defines the
elements you can use in your xsp program.

Again, there may be better docs somewhere else, such as in a book or on the
Cocoon wiki, which I am not so familiar with.

Good luck!

-Christopher

Re: Problems with custom taglib

2004-02-13 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




As to your second question, you can't pass parameters dynamically from your
xsp program (at runtime), if that's what you're hoping.  You are creating
an xml structure that your logicsheet can transform into XSP program code.
You have all the power of XSLT to work with, but only *before* compilation.
Within that, of course, you can create extremely parameterized code; for
examples, look at the various cocoon built-in logicsheets.  They have a
number of standard templates for capturing various "parameters" from the
XSP code.

Re: Problems with custom taglib

2004-02-13 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




To do a logicsheet, you need to keep in mind that what you are doing is
creating an XSLT stylesheet to transform your code into valid XSP code.
Your template certainly won't do that, because you are mixing class level
logic (function definition) with method level logic (bare call to function)
in the same template.  If you use this template inside your page element,
you'll have a function definition inside the generate() method of the final
java code, which obviously won't compile.  If you use the template outside
your page element, you'll have a call to "getStr()" at the class level,
outside any function, which obviously won't compile.  What you want is a
stylesheet that will put your function in at the class level (e.g., inside
xsp:page, but outside any non-xsp elements), and your call to the function
inside the method.  So, try this instead:


http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
  xmlns:xsp="http://apache.org/xsp";
  xmlns:byteConvert="http://www.beyarecords.com/conversion/byteConvert";
   version="1.0">


  
 
 
   private static String getStr()
   {
  String msg = "testing.";

  return msg;
   }
 
 
  



  getStr()



  
 
  





If you want to create the getStr() method only when the
byteConvert:convertByteArrayToImage template is used, then you can wrap the
xsp:logic block in an xsl:if block:

Re: XSP, "for" loop, XSP logicsheets

2004-01-26 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield

Are you saying that you want your logicsheet "my-logicsheet:do-with-i" to generate different XSP code depending on the value of i?  That isn't possible, to my knowledge.

If you just want to have a for-loop calling a template in a logicsheet, that's fine, but the logicsheet's XSLT templates cannot depend on the value of i (that value doesn't exist yet).  You can create Java code to do a case statement or a bunch of if-else statements to vary the behavior based on the value of i.

Re: Logicsheet not working, anyone help?

2004-01-21 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Nothing else catches my eye.  Here's a couple of things to try:
1) Touch the source XSP (main.xsp) - sometimes logicsheet changes don't get
picked up by Cocoon the way they are supposed to after just changing the
logicsheet

2) Simplify the problem - strip the code down to the bare minimum to debug,
for instance:
  a) modify your sitemap entry to serialize to XML after doing the
server-pages generator step (strip out the XSLT step)
  b) strip your main.xsp to something like
http://apache.org/xsp";
  xmlns:abc="http://samspublishing.com/abc/1.0";>
  

  


3) look at the generated java source for your XSP page - under your Tomcat
work directory

Re: Logicsheet not working, anyone help?

2004-01-21 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




I believe the problem is in your "catch-all" template in your logicsheet:


  

  


because this is AFTER your template matching abc:datetime, and not at a
lower priority, it gets applied instead of your abc:datetime template.
Change the above template to have priority="-2" and you'll get better
results.

Thanks.  I was a bit grumpy in my previous reply, sorry to one and all.  I

Re: I'm searching for good tutorial about creating XSP logicsheets

2004-01-14 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Are you familiar with XSLT?  (If not, you will not get far making
logicsheets!)  Just think of an XSLT expression that transforms your XSP to
create the XSP code you need.  In your example, for instance (assuming
foo-value and bar-variable are Java expressions):

  

  Result of doing something is
  


  Result of doing something else is
  

  

is a very simple possibility.

  
Result of doing something is 
Result of doing something else is 
  

  

  

  

  

  

is better.

It's very simple; a logicsheet replaces the logicsheet tags with XSP code.
In other words, every logicsheet is an XSLT that transforms an XSP program
into another XSP program.  Or put yet another way, in each step you are
adding more and more xsp namespace code, while removing code in the
namespace of the logicsheet.  If you get stuck, put your XSP program and
your logicsheet through a XSLT transform step (e.g., in XML Spy, or through
Xalan), and look at the output.  The output should be a correct XSP
program.  If not, you have a bug.

Thanks a lot, but now the problem is: what is  and where do I need to put it?

You are instantiating your Date variable at the class level, when the page is instantiated.  Cocoon re-uses the page object (just calling the generate() method each time), AFAIK.  So you need to put your Date instantiation inside the generate() method by doing the logic block inside .  That way you will get the current date each time the page is requested, instead of just the first time.

I'm building a database request using ESQL. Let's say I have a table with
two columns in the table i'm requesting. This is the xsp snippet I use to
get the results from the request :


 
  








This works, but as I want this code to be dynamic in order to be used with
other tables, I need my column element name (the currently static
"" element) to be created with the requested column
name.
The same logic would apply for the 'name' attribute in the 'xsp:attribute'
element. I don't know if this is possible, using the esql logicsheet.

any ideas?

Thank you,

Never mind.  I just looked at the output with a different editor; it looks

I have a data consumer who is pulling XML from our Cocoon webapp.  They
couldn't handle UTF-8 on their end, so I gave them the option to pull data
in US-ASCII encoding.  However, when I did that, symbol characters such as
Greek and math symbols got sent over even though they aren't in the
encoding.  When I saved a result from our system and opened it with XML
Spy, it complained about these characters.  On my consumer's end, it makes
his software blow up.  I'm not sure exactly how these characters are output
(I don't have a good byte-level editor), but I assume it is doing some kind
of double-character thing that creates bytes outside the range of defined
characters for the encoding, or something similar.

My question is, what should the behavior be when coping with characters
outside the encoding, and where does the responsibility lie?  My assumption
would be that the XML serializer should take characters outside the
encoding and turn them into entity references (Δ for greek delta, for
instance).  I am on C2.0.3, so maybe that has been done in a later release,
but if not, should it?  I am going to explore a change to the serializer
for just that purpose, but if it has already been done, I'd like to grab
the code for it.  I'm assuming you can use character entities in any
encoding, regardless of whether the characters thus specified have a code

Re: dynamic setting of encoding on serializer?

2003-12-12 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Thanks - that's a big help, although I may just take the path of least
resistance and hand-configure for now :)

-Christopher




The fact that serializers don't accept parameters and don't have access
to the objecmodel has come up before here and is indeed a pain.

Can you maybe add a node to the xml using a stylesheet transformer (they
do accept parameters), and then filter out this node in the serializer
and remove it from the xml before you serialize to the client.

Ofcourse for this to work you would need to override at least
startdocument, enddocument, startelement and endelement to buffer the
xml buildup before you modify it.

Admitted, it's a Big Bodge(tm), but it works. Alternatively, there is a
patch waiting for the 2.1x branch that is supposed to add parameters for
the SVG serializer. Maybe you can have a look how it's done and
generalize it to the 2.0.x branch for any serializer.

Hope this helps

dynamic setting of encoding on serializer?

2003-12-12 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Is there any way to dynamically set the encoding of output on a serializer,
specifically the XML serializer?  I have a customer who is having trouble
handing UTF-8 output from my application (he is using Lotus Notes), and
would like me to supply a different encoding.  I can just create a
different serializer with the encoding he wants, but he might need to try
more than one to get the desired result, and I don't want to create a
thousand serializer entries in my sitemap just so I can handle every
possible encoding (okay, I'm exaggerating).  I looked at the source
(C2.0.x) to see if I could create my own serializer to do this, but there
appears to be no easy way; the serializer don't implement
SitemapModelComponent, and thus don't get access to any of the usual
objects (e.g., parameters, objectModel).  Any thoughts?

This causes the String to be "null", because getNodevalue() returns null.

This has the same effect as 'as=string' without the  tag around.

Re: How to nest logicsheet tags of different libraries

2003-12-10 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




seems like it maybe should be using getNodeValue() instead of
getFirstChild().getNodeValue(), but I'm not familiar with the
xsp-session-fw stuff (I'm not on C2.1 yet).

The obvious workaround would seem to be

org.w3c.dom.DocumentFragment fragment =
  ;
fragment.getNodeValue()

I also wonder what would happen if you did


  

  


which would wrap a String.valueOf() around the DocumentFragment.

Thanks a lot, that was the solution, however now I have another problem.



returns not the whole string, I put in the authentication context, but only
the first 7 chars, or so .
For example, when I put "Stephanie Zohner" in the context, only "Stephan"
is
returned.

I looked into the generated Java Code. This is the code fragment, that is
generated out of the  Tag.

XSPSessionFwHelper.getXML(this.manager,
String.valueOf("authentication"),

String.valueOf("/authentication/data/name"))).getFirstChild().getNodeValue())

  );

It takes only the first child node of the returned XML Fragment. However
"Stephanie Zohner" is shared among 3 child nodes.Taking only the first node
results in extracting only the first of three parts of my name.

This happens when I use the "as= 'string'". If I use "as= 'object'" I would
get the entire string, but then again I get an eeption (as you have
predicted), because a String is expected by the my method and not an
DocumentFragment.

Is it a bug, that only the first node is taken when using the attribute
''as
= 'string''?

Are there any work arounds?


Thanks in advance,

Stephanie

Re: How to nest logicsheet tags of different libraries

try  instead.  That should copy the
 into the output, where it will later get turned
into some kind of java expression (hopefully!) by the xsp-session-fw
logicsheet.  However, I think you want to change your getxml tag as
attribute to as="string", or else it looks like you will get an
org.w3c.dom.DocumentFragment instead of String, and get an exception
anyway!

Hi,

I have big problems with my custom logicsheet, hopeyou can help:

I would like to read the user name from the authentication context and use
it as a parameter for a method call of my Helper Class.

However, at the time the template wants to replace with the value from the authentication context, there is no
(text) value.

So that in the end, the XSP is transformed to:

BlockerHelper.getInstance().setEditorName();

This throughs an exception, because a String value is expected as method
parameter.


Every hint is appreciated,

Thanks Stephanie



My xsp:page looks like this:


http://apache.org/xsp";
xmlns:blocker="http://test.de/blocker"; xmlns:xsp-session-fw="
http://apache.org/xsp/session-fw/1.0";>
 
 
 
 

 
 




The XSL-Template in my logicsheet looks like this:






BlockerHelper.getInstance().setEditorName();

Re: FW: Escaping in XSP Logic

2003-12-04 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




I am not a Java expert!  My guess, it looks like an encoding problem,
perhaps due to your XML editor, or some oddity within the Cocoon pipeline.

I tried this in my environment (C2.1, Tomcat, using Eclipse+Sunbow for
coding) and it worked fine when I set the XSP source encoding to
iso-8859-1.  When I used UTF-8 encoding and the entity reference ç it
worked fine.  When I used UTF-8 encoding and put the ç directly in the
code, I got a Cocoon processing exception (java.io.UTFDataFormatException):
"Invalid byte 2 of 3-byte UTF-8 sequence".

So my guess is that the Sunbow editor saved the code wrong for the encoding
my XML is supposed to be using.  Probably your best bet is to change your
source file encoding to UTF-8, and use the entity reference.

Re: Logicsheet as condition

What you want to do should work fine.  Instead of putting the ESQL code or
whatever directly in the template, put it all in a function, then put the
function call in the template.

Hi all,

I'm making a little project in cocoon and I have been cornered now (nothing

unusal :)). I need to implement
a permission control of user's actions (it means, that for example some
users
can create something, another users can just read somehing etc.). All is
ok,
but I don't know, how to
check user's permissions in XSP. My idea is to write something as:

if ( == true) {
... then do something, what are you allowed to (some XSP, calling another
logicsheets etc.)...
}

or something like that:


... then do anything, what are you able to...


The namespace "permission" is defined by a logicsheet, for example
template "check" will look into SQL databaese, if the appropriate user has
appropriate permission "user_can_write".

I think, that it is relatively usual stuff and many of you have to write it

almost every day... But when I tried to make it, following problems
encountered:

In the first case is a problem, that if template  looks
into
db thru ESQL, it creates tons of java code, so it is no possible to compare

with value as a normal variable, of course.

In the second example I solve a problem, how to copy the inner content of
template without changes to be consequently correctly evaluate by another
logicsheets (my own other logicsheets, xsp logicsheet etc.) and virtual
machine.

Another possibility is to write a pure java class, it will look into db and

will be return corresponding information. But how to use a connection pool
of
cocoon (and if possible without settings of concrete connection parameters,

that are stored in the cocoon configuration file)? Don't you know a link to

concrete examples? In user docs are just very general and non-concrete
informations.

What am I doing wrong, please? Or do you have another idea, how to solve my

problem or some existing solution? Thanks a lot!

Re: XSP logic if failing

2003-11-20 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




You can't do String equality this way in Java.  Try this instead:
  if (!("Manager".equals(type))) { ... }

The = for Strings is an Object identity test, not a value comparison test.

Flow goes like this:
* ServerPagesGenerator.setup()
* ProgramGeneratorImpl.load()
* ProgramGeneratorImpl.createResource() (synchronized)
* ProgramGeneratorImpl.generateResource
* AbstractMarkupLanguage.generateCode
* LogicsheetCodeGenerator.generateCode

Logicsheets are added during XML parsing/processing into XML pipe via:
  * TransformerChainBuilderFilter.startElement
  * AbstractMarkupLanguage.addLogicsheetsToGenerator
  * LogicsheetCodeGenerator.addLogicsheet

Hope this helps to find you your issue; note that there is one
synchronization point above which should prevent multithreading issues.
If you find the root of your problem, patch or bug report is welcome :)

XSP with multiple logicsheet compilation errors

2003-11-13 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Sorry for the cross-posting; I wasn't sure who would best be able to
answer.  We are using C2.0.3 on Tomcat 4.1.  If it is relevant, the problem
most frequently happens on our servers which are Solaris 8, Apache 1.3.x,
mod_jk.

We keep having a problem occasionally in which logicsheets are not properly
applied to our XSP's, resulting in uncompilable code.  We so far cannot
reproduce the problem reliably.  It usually happens at the worst possible
time (e.g., when we have just deployed new software to production, or
during a demo).  Sometimes the problem can be fixed by stopping and
restarting the web application.  Sometimes the problem can be fixed by
mucking with the XSP source code, although I haven't found any reliable way
to fix it.

We make heavy use of logicsheets, and our logicsheets use other
logicsheets, and so forth so that there is often quite a long chain of
logicsheets that must be applied to generate our source, and I'm sure that
contributes to the problem.  However, the intermittent nature of the
problem leads me to believe that it is a "bug" or at least shortcoming in
the XSP generation code.  A typical symptom of the problem is that some
page will not compile, and when we go to look at the source code, the
source has not transformed tags for one or more logicsheets (often ESQL).
Instead, java code is generated that attempts to output the logicsheet
tags.  So, for instance, if you have code like:
  if ( == -1) {  }
it turns into:
  if (
this.contentHandler.startElement(
  "",
  "esql:get-int",
  "esql:get-int",
  xspAttr
);
...
  )
or something like that, and you can see why it wouldn't compile!

Note that these pages do compile most times, so it isn't due to missing
namespace declarations or anything like that.  The problem doesn't appear
to be due to any problems with our code - the same webapp code that
compiled and ran fine on our workstation or on a test server will suddenly
compile wrong on the production server, then fix itself as soon as we
restart tomcat.  Also, we have seen this happen both with the built-in esql
logicsheet as well as our own logicsheets.

Our best theory at this point (and it is only a theory - we don't know
where in the code to even begin looking for this) is that when an
uncompiled page is called twice quickly (as might happen on a production
server), the two calls interfere with some shared queue or some such which
informs the XSP generator which logicsheets to apply, and in which order.
In other words, some shared structure which is not properly protected for a
multi-threaded environment.  The best evidence in favor of this theory, I
think, is the fact that the bug doesn't happen regularly (say 1 time in 10
deployments), even on the exact same code.

Anyway, does anyone have any ideas about this?  I searched the archives and
found nothing, but is this perhaps a known issue?  Is it fixed in a newer
version of Cocoon?  (We do plan to move to C2.1, but have higher priorities
right now; and since we can't reproduce the problem reliably, we can't
quickly test "just to see" right now.)  Can someone who has worked on the
XSP generation code contact me and perhaps suggest some classes to look at,
which control the application of logicsheets to the XSP source?  Any help
greatly appreciated.

  SELECT NEXTVAL('list_id_seq') as id

 x
 for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
 

And no SELECT-clauses to SQL-server..

So, howto loop SELECT-clause?

Re: Dynamic parameter for logicsheet

2003-11-10 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




My previous answer was lacking in several respects.  Here is a better one:
you are expecting your query to end up with "id = 5", but that won't happen
because your logicsheet is applied *before* the XSP is even turned into
Java code.  So there is no possible way that your logicsheet could obtain
the value "5" from the java variable and do the substitution as you are
expecting.  Here is better code that will behave dynamically, and follows
the "best practices" for ESQL:


  ...

  select * from section
  where id=

  


  ...

Hi people, I don't understand one thing:

in XSP file I have this piece of code:


String sectionId = 5;


sectionId




this "calls" template "section:edit" in logicsheet, which is defined:


...
select * from section where
id=
...


It should send to SQL server query 'select * from section where id=5',
But to ESQL it sends query 'select * from section where id=sectionId'.

WHY??? And why to do it correctly?

Re: Recursive reading from database

2003-11-05 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




No, your functions must be defined within an xsp:logic block, which will
protect them from being the top user element in xsp:page.  The output won't
occur until you call the function, which will be within your top user
element.  So you should be able to get the output you are expecting.

I have had problems in the past doing output from user functions, due to
some xspAttr variable or some such not being available.  It seems to me
that it was easy enough to fix, by passing the missing variable into the
function call.  If that won't work, you can always fall back on building a
list in Java via recursion, and returning that from your function.  Loop on
the list in your main body to output.  But you should be able to do output
from your functions, with a little work.

Thanx for your answer. I'm using mysql now and there is no similar
feature as you said, I think.

> ESQL elements don't have to be inside the top user element, at least
in...

Yes, it is maybe possible, that it can be outside the top user element, but
if ESQL elements are generating some XML output, the top element of this
output is taken as top user element and that's not good. If I want to use
it recursively, it will generate uncorrect data. What i want to generate,
can be something like this:


 blabla
 - bleble
 - - blibli
 - blublu
 blabla2


And what to do now... ? :)

thanx

Re: Recursive reading from database

2003-11-05 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




ESQL elements don't have to be inside the top user element, at least in
C2.0.  We use ESQL in user-defined functions all the time.  This wasn't the
case in C1, as it used local variables in the generate() method, but now
all its variables are declared at the object level, and just initialized in
the generate() method.

I take it you are using a database other than Oracle?  Oracle provides
support for this kind of tree relationship in SQL (using the CONNECT BY
clause).

Hi, i'm a beginner in the Cocoon domain and first problem, what I'd like
to solve, is recursive reading from database. For example you have a
table test(id int, parent int, name varchar), where parent attribute
points to id attribute of parent rows and you need to read all the rows
to the tree.

for example something like this (excuse the syntax :):

// recursive function
public void readData (int parent) {
  select id, name from test where parent= $parent;
  for each result {
  print ($name);
  readData($id);
  }

// start recursion:
readData(null);

But how to write in XSP, when methods need to be in root 
element and esql tags must be inside top user element (or how it is
termed).

Thank a lot for each your outline!

Re: XSP/ESQL escaping

2003-11-04 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield

Yes, it is a pain, isn't it?  XML just doesn't care to know about or deal with whitespace, and that really is a pain when whitespace IS content!

To answer your question, it depends.  If you just have a string (no XML markup in the database), then something like this is the easiest:


        String instring = ;
        java.util.StringTokenizer st = new java.util.StringTokenizer(instring, "\n", true);
        while (st.hasMoreTokens()) {
                String token = st.nextToken();
                if ("\n".equals(token)) {
                        
                } else {
                        token
                }
        }

        

If what is in your database contains XML markup, you'll need to do something more like this (mostly lifted from the ESQL logicsheet):


        String instring = ;
        instring.replaceAll("\n", ">br/>");
        org.apache.cocoon.components.parser.Parser newParser = null;
        try {
                newParser = (org.apache.cocoon.components.parser.Parser)
                        this.manager.lookup(org.apache.cocoon.components.parser.Parser.ROLE);

                InputSource __is = new InputSource(new StringReader(rawXML));
                XSPUtil.include(__is, this.contentHandler, newParser);
        } catch (Exception e) {
                getLogger().error("Could not include page", e);
        } finally {
                if (newParser != null) this.manager.release((Component) newParser);
        }

Re: XSP/ESQL escaping

2003-11-04 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Yes, you cannot use tags inside java strings in this fashion.  When XSP
sees this tag, it tries to insert a whole block of code to output the tag
into the SAX output, which should give you a compilation error.

I'm actually not certain how it is you are able to pass the results of
esql:get-xml into a function call without getting compilation errors.  The
get-xml tag also turns into a whole block of code, not an expression which
can be passed to a function.  What version of Cocoon are you using?  In
C2.0.3, which I am using, you would be unable to do this, and you would be
unable to do substitutions inside the returned XML.  Instead, you'd have to
get the results using get-string, do your substitutions (using < in
place of <), then run the resulting String through an XML parser to get it
into the SAX stream.   (A good example of this is the code that implements
get-xml in the ESQL logicsheet, which is in your cocoon jar file.)

HTH.

Thanks for your time

The formatMessage is implemented above the problem in the xsp logic
section, and it (currently) only does this  :


public string formatMessage(String message)
{
 return instring.replaceAll("\n", ")
}


the problem area in the xsp, like I said looks like this

formatMessage()

The problem occurs when the xsp:expr contains tags (i.e. if I do the
replace "\n" ---> "foo" , then all is well, but "\n" ---> "" will
not work. )

Re: XSP/ESQL escaping

2003-11-04 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Where and how is formatMessage() implemented?  That is the code we really
need to see, I think.

We also use eclipse+tomcat 4+cocoon 2.0.x.  For some classes of error (I'm
not sure which ones), Eclipse suspends the thread for debugging, which
might be causing the timeout you are experiencing.  If you don't get a
response in the expected time, go to the debug perspective and continue and
suspended threads.  That will produce the normal Cocoon error message page
in your browser.  (There might be a way of telling eclipse to ignore those
exceptions, I haven't explored it.)

Hi

I have a problem with escaping when retrieving database data in an xsp
page. For each row in the resultset, the following xml is generated:


   
   
   formatDate()
   formatMessage()


The formatMessage method will replace all line breaks (\n) with the tag
, however in this context that will give a  an error for some
reason. If I replace the \n's with >br/< etc, then it works, so
it's a document structure error obviously, but I don't see why it should
be?.

Also, which is the best way to develop xsp efficiently? I'm using
eclipse/tomcat4/cocoon2.0 on windows, and with this configuration the
requests time out when there is an error in either the code or structure
of the xsp, not easily debugged. Even the not-so-helpful generated code
error pages would be more helpful, but they only show up on rare occasions.

Thanks for any help

Anders

I'm assuming this must be a logicsheet, because you can't run ESQL code
outside XSP.  So, what does your XSP code look like?

Hello,



I have a problem when using the  tag.



Here the code sniplet:







  



  



  





  

Die Kategorie enthaelt Dokumente und kann nicht

geloescht werden.

Zurueck

  



  



  

  



  letterman

  

delete * from kategorien where benutzer_id=



and id=





  



Die Kategorie wurde geloescht

Zurueck

  



The problem is, that the sql-query from the template "deleted" is

not executed as if the esql-tags were ignored - in the output i see

only "letterman select * from...". Is it so, because I'm using it

quasi within the -block? If yes, what were the solution?

My goal is to delete a selected row from db-table when the condition

is fulfilled (also when the attribute "dokument-name" equals "keine").



Any help will be appreciated.



Jan

Re: ESQL problem

2003-10-30 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




Your code looks correct to me, I can't imagine why there'd be a problem.
I've never used (or even heard of) a pervasive database, but if you can
write JDBC code that works against it, it ought to work in ESQL.

Is your pool set up correctly?  Do you log in with the same user as in your
separate JDBC test?  Can you tell from the generated java source if it is
following the same steps you do in your own JDBC?

If you put code in an  block after the 
block, does that execute?

Just out of curiosity, what does the
pervasive line do?

I have encountered something strange concerning ESQL. I am using Pervasive
database. This is a ESQL code snippet:

symfonia

pervasive
select * from xt where kod like  '%ń%'





String test = ;
getLogger().error( test );







If you have a strange character in select statement - that's OK - it's a
polish letter.
The problem is: the query does not output any data.

The same written in JDBC (off cocoon):

PreparedStatement stmt = conn.prepareStatement("select * from xt where kod
like '%ń%'");
stmt.execute();

ResultSet rs = stmt.getResultSet();

while ( rs.next() ) {
 System.out.println( rs.getString( "kod" ) );
}

works just fine.

I have checked the xsp java generated source - the polish letter is
encoding
using the same byte value so I do not get it what makes the difference.

Comments anyone ?

Re: Weird logicsheet problem

2003-10-28 Thread Christopher Painter-Wakefield




well, now that I look at it, I would expect this to fail.  Again, look at
where you are putting this code: at the class level.  The String array
filelist is being created at object instantiation time.  The contextualize
function is almost certainly not being called until *after* the filelist
variable is created and initialized.  Are you very familiar with java?
Looking at the generated source code should help you with this kind of
problem.

Instead of creating a variable to hold on to your file list, why not
instead create a function that you can then call whenever you need the
filelist.  That will avoid your timing issues, I think.

String [] getFilelist() { return uploadDir.list(); }

Hi.

this piece posted works almost fine:

 
 
 
org.apache.cocoon.components.language.markup.xsp.XSPUtil

org.apache.avalon.framework.context.ContextException

 
 
  public void contextualize(Context
context) throws ContextException (
uploadDir = (File)
context.get(Contstants.CONTEXT_UPLOAD_DIR);
  }
 String[] filelist =
uploadDir.list();
 
 
 
 


The only problem: It always gives a nullpointer-exception, because the
"uploadDir.list()" is empty (for some stupid reason).
In my xsp's this code works fine. It gets all the names of the
files(+directories) of the upload-directory I specified in the web.xml file

(and in my case this directory isn't empty).

Thanks
Jonny
