Re: [xwiki-users] why hsqdb rather than h2?

Just use the HSQL dialect. Table creation has worked for me with H2Dialect with latest Hibernate ok. All in all, it should be at most half an hour for someone who knows XWiki to replace one with the other. The major advantage of H2 over HSQL is not speed but H2 is under development while HSQL is pretty much dead. Agree, but I've had several cases where H2 has turned out to be way faster (DATEDIFF for example). Yes, it's easy to replace. H2 should be just seen as version two of hsqldb (as the name implies) rather than a completely different database though it's not completely backwards compatible (but you can still use e.g. hsql dialect with h2).

[xwiki-users] why hsqdb rather than h2?
Just checking out the new 2.0 enterprise XWiki, great job! I'm just wondering why you are using hsqldb in the standalone version rather than h2 (http://www.h2database.com/html/main.html). H2 is in pretty much every way an improved version over hsql and I've been very impressed with its speed. Have you considered switching over and if you decided against it, I'd be interested in hearing the reasons. If you haven't considered it yet, I'll open an issue for it.

Looking a bit on its site, I think that this is a good candidate for replacing hsql as the default database (Derby is the other one). There is only one problem I can see with it: choosing the right hibernate dialect. On the H2 documentation, they warn that the official H2Dialect is buggy (how?), but that the hsql dialect can be used. Ok. There are a few open issues still on Hibernate's side, but I think the warning is kind of old. Though on H2's site they say it works with hsql dialect as well, I wouldn't use it - that gives more problems than solves. I've been using H2Dialect intensively and it has worked in my application that contains some fairly complex queries without any problems. They claim H2 performs much better than either hsql or Derby in most situations and I can assert the claim - I had verified it with my db tests (mostly related to write and transaction performance) running against all three databases, and my results were similar to what they mention at http://www.h2database.com/html/performance.html.

Re: [xwiki-users] Any plans for swizzle-confluence?

I've been trying to ping David Blevins a few times myself. Being such a nice guy I was surprised that he never answered. After I received your mail I was able to find him on IRC. He had never received my emails for some reason (spam, etc). He's now working on applying the last XWiki patch http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SWIZZLE-24 but he needs help from Catalin to apply it (I've pinged Catalin yesterday but not answer so far). I think XWiki uses your own build for swizzle-confluence. I'd be happy if that version was available in some common Maven(2) repo as I'm trying to avoid maintaining my own version. Have you guys thought about what to do with it, maybe even hosting it as its own sub project as part of XWiki? Sure, but the best is really to work with David and help him out to do releases of swizzle. I know he's been awfully busy but he's ready to do a quick release if we can answer the questions he has on our latest patch. I absolutely agree. I appreciate David's work and willing to help in whatever is needed for the release. The question in hand is the one for SWIZZLE-24? Let me know if I can do something.

[xwiki-users] Any plans for swizzle-confluence?
Hello Xwikiers, I found swizzle-confluence an easy to use lib to pull data from XWiki/Confluence. From previous discussions, I understand XWiki is also using it internally. My biggest issue is that the released version is using an ancient version of httpclient, but it's fixed in the svn.
