WO 5.3 and Tomcat property files?
Hi, What the best approach to use property files from development in and for deployment within tomcat? Because it seems they are not being read in at run time System.getProperty(foo) always returns null under tomcat, but works perfectly in development in Xcode. I tried printing out System.getProperties() and none of my application properties have been loaded only the built in Java ones are there. How does every one else handle this? 1) Manually add properties as env-entry in the web.xml file? 2) Avoid properties altogether ? 3) Something else? I had a quick look at LEConfigServletEnvEntryMergeTool from lejstuff from Andrew Lindesay and it looks promising. As it appears to convert property files to env-entry in the web.xml file, but running it out of the box I got IO.exceptions. - Dave ___ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Re: Setting a Default toOne Relationship
I'm don't really know, I guess.
I've been following the instructions in the WebObjects Java Client
Programming manual (http://developer.apple.com/documentation/
WebObjects/DesktopApplications/WODesktopApps.pdf) for Enhancing the
Application in which it describes several ways to modify a Direct To
Java Client application. In the instructions for setting initial
values (page 123), the example code is put in the awakeFromInsertion
(EOEditingContext) method in the server-side class. I was putting it
in the client-side, but I've now generated server side classes, added
it to the Application Server target and put the code there and even
changed it to simply put a default value in one of the attributes
instead of setting a relationship, but it still doesn't work.
Here's what my code now looks like
public void awakeFromInsertion (EOEditingContext ec) {
super.awakeFromInsertion(ec);
System.out.println(Routing awakeFromInsert Called);
if (routingDescription() == null) {
setRoutingDescription(Description);
}
}
When I click the new icon for a routing and I get the form window,
the default is not set and nothing shows in the console.
It appears that the awakeFromInsertion() method isn't even being
invoked. But since I'm simply making a modification to a D2JC
application, I don't know everything that is going on behind the
scenes to trigger a new instance and therefor what might be going
wrong prior to this point.
Anybody have any ideas?

This method is not called until that is done.

Okay, Here's my code:

System.out.println(routingTypes.objectAtIndex(0).toString());
setRoutingType((EOGenericRecord)routingTypes.objectAtIndex(0));
}
It's not working at all. No errors at least, but it doesn't appear
to be being called either because when I create a new Routing in
the UI, it doesn't set the default value, and I don't get the
message printed out in the console either.
It's nearly midnight here. I'm going to bed. Maybe I'll have
inspiration in the morning.

The JavaEOAccess.framework is part of the project and part of

I don't understand why it sees the other packages (eocontrol,

David,
Besides calling the set method in awakeFromInsertion(), I can't
imagine what else there is to do. Of course, you need to get
the EO in the correct editing context. Since the EC is passed
into the awakeFromInsertion() method, you could:
public void awakeFromInsertion(EOEditingContext ec) {
MyObject obj = EOUtilities.objectMatchingKeyandValue(ec,
ENTITY, KEY, VALUE);
setRelObj(obj);
}
I've never done Java client, but I would assume this will work...

Hi all,
I know this has to be an incredibly simple thing to do, but I
can't seem to figure out how.
All I want to do is defaults so that when an object is
instantiated, it automatically has some of it's relationships
defined. It is VERY easy to do this for an attribute, but I
just can't get it to work for a relationship and I can't find
in the documentation how to do it.
I know the code belongs in the awakeFromInsertion() method.
Can anyone give me a pointer to where in the documentation to
look for this, or better yet a simple code fragment?
BTW, this is for a Java Client application, but I don't think
that matters, right?

One catch that I have found with this approach is that, if you create
a local instance of the object in a different editing context, the
related object is still in the old ec, assuming that you haven't
first saved the record with the updated relationship and refaulted
the objects. I don't see how this can be avoided, or even if you
should attempt to avoid it.

This is probably the crux of my problem. What you see above is the
entire extent of the custom code written for the application so far.
This is IT. NOTHING else. Everything else is managed by WO's D2JC
framework. How would I check to see if it's been inserted?
In all the Enhancing the Application code, I don't ever see an
example of adding the instance to the editing context. I'm assuming
that since I get a Form Window with fields that I can fill in and
drop-downs I can choose from, etc that the instance has been inserted
into an editing context by WO without any additional work by me.

Re: Setting a Default toOne Relationship
Hi Ken,
The objects must get inserted upon instantiation. What would the
point be of having a context that you don't use until you save the
information to the database? Might just as well do direct JDBC calls
then.
According to the WebObjects Java Client Programming Guide (http://
developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/DesktopApplications/
WODesktopApps.pdf), Chapter 6, the section on specifying initial
values (page 123) if you add setters in the awakeFromInsertion()
method, these values will show up immediately.
See below:
CLIP
Initial Values
When you create a new record, you might want to supply some default
values for the fields in that record. Although none of the fields in
the Student record really need a default value, you’ll override
awakeFromInsertion in order to learn how to give a field a default
value.
Add this code in the server-side Student.java file:
public void awakeFromInsertion(EOEditingContext context) {
super.awakeFromInsertion(context);
if (gpa() == null) {
setGpa(new BigDecimal(0));
}
if (sat() == null) {
setSat(new BigDecimal(0));
}
if (act() == null) {
setAct(new BigDecimal(0));
}
if (name() == null) {
setName();
}
}
Build and run the application and create a new student record. You’ll
notice that some of the fields are populated in the new record as
shown in Figure 6-11.

Re: AJAX WebObjects Integration
From a quick read, you have to replace the php/asp handling with WO handling. A quick and easy way to do it is by using DirectAction, just so you can easily write the url directly in the html file. This will give you the bare essential just so it run. This is not how you would like a WO integration on long-terme. If you want to integrate Dojo and WO, you would do it the reverse way. Instead of adapting WO to act like PHP just so that Dojo tutorial can keep simple, you would instead look at it from a WO perspective. Attack the problem from a WO point of view ... In a WO workflow, how would you integrate a nice javascript/ajax library. This is how the wonder's ajax framework look at the problem. On long terme, you want to be able to drag-drop wo-components from a wobuilder palette for example. - jfv Le 06-05-19, à 09:32, Tokalak, Ahmet.

Re: AJAX WebObjects Integration
As far as convincing you that it's not true that WO clashes with Ajax and that it doesn't make sense, obviously the Wonder Ajax frameworks essentially demonstrate the counterexample. It's both possible (clashless?) and DOES make sense :) However, it is true that making Ajax behave in the way WO users have become accustomed is not necessarily simple. Getting drag-and-drop to just work with object bindings, etc, makes for some slightly funky code, but the end result is really cool. I suspect if you look at the code INSIDE of Ruby of Rails for making Ajax integration work, it's much the same. The vast majority of users just use the end product, they're not writing the rails framework. Because WO's Ajax support is fairly new, you're sort of at the writing the Rails framework level at the moment. As Jean-François mentioned, using DirectActions will give you the quickest route to success for something like the Hello World example. The tighter the integration, the trickier the code will become. The source to Ajax framework is in Wonder, though, and it provides all the basic tools to create just about anything these example do, it's just varying levels of cleverness to make them nice depending on how complicated the desired behavior is. ms On May 19, 2006, at 9:29 AM, Tokalak, Ahmet.

Re: WO 5.3 and Tomcat property files?
I encountered problems with WebSphere using properties files. The first problem is that either the Framework properties files were NOT read, or they were not read in time (for me to initialize from them). The second is that when the properties are loaded, there is only ONE System.properties object. See: http://www.google.com/search?q=webobjects+servlet+properties http://developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/JSP_and_Servlets/ SpecialIssues/chapter_4_section_2.html Additionally you can set properties in the container and WO will load them from JNDI. Which is cool in a way and familiar for clients with their own administration processes and policies. Our solution is to have one property defined in the container to identify an additional properties file. That file we manually read (from filesystem/war/ear) using a standard java Properties object and then for each property we set the key and value into NSProperties. If we do this early enough (Application initialization) then we can control/override all the standard WebObjects properties (including custom jdbc/jndi connection info). Hope this helps, David On 19-May-06, at 2:39 AM, Dave Elsner wrote: Hi, What the best approach to use property files from development in and for deployment within tomcat?

I have to wonder if your D2JC app is ignoring your eo classes, and acting directly on the database, by way of EOGenericRecord? I believe that, in some circumstances, if WO can't find your class from the eomodel, it will fall back on EOGenericRecord. IIRC, JC uses some form of 2 stage commit - first is within the JC app, then a further commit back to the server.

Re: AJAX WebObjects Integration
I read your earlier WebObjects on Rails post with much interest and started to throw together a small sample application that used EZ... classes. I slowed and stalled because I had to fill in a lot of the gaps -- I'm not adverse to doing that, but time is money/ precious and I'll have to wait till the weekend to get the spare time!! In reading your posting today, I had the same, this is neat, I need to try this desire. Where I'm headed with this is to wonder if you have a small, functional example of the various ideas you've put together on this topic or, if not, if this is something that you think would be good to do. People learn by example and I'd be happy to assist in putting something together. The Wrox site has the sample code from my old book chapter, let me look... here it is, you want Chapter 7: http://support.apress.com/books.asp?bID=1861004311s=0 As for the Ajax stuff, the problem is that Marketocracy is Objective-C not Java, so all my stuff is coded in ObjC at the moment. That's why my posts have been more conceptual then code lately. It's the same API, but I don't want to scare people with lots of []. I interviewed at the iTMS on Monday, so maybe that will change. :-) What I really want to do though is put this all together into a framework to help jumpstart people with WO. Wonder is cool, but its kind of more focused at the advanced WO practitioner then someone who just wants to get something done. Maybe Wonder just needs a WO Recipes section. I've come to love Recipes books... In passing, I'll note that the aspects of WebObjects that you are highlighting are the ones that I find so powerful. Many people say the power of WO is EOF, and while EOF is an astonishing piece of work, I'll argue that WO without EOF is still extremely powerful. I particularly like your Myth: WebObjects generates HTML comment! Thanks for your contribution, you're more articulate than I would be on this ... Thanks, its very encouraging when I get feedback like this from one of my long posts. Pierce ___ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Think this should read Reality: WebObjects is actually a better

Doh. Yep.
[[[However, there's a gotcha there, because component actions
called from javascript count towards your backtracking count.
Since someone might be going down through the page clicking rating
after rating, that could be a problem. If your max backtracking
count was 10, and you had 20 postings on a page, they wouldn't be
able to rate the 11th page. ]]]
To avoid problems like this, I have added methods like this to
Session:
public void savePage(WOComponent aPage)
{
if (shouldCachePage(aPage))
{
super.savePage(aPage);
}
}
/**
* Returns codetrue/code if the passed WOComponent is
eligible to be added to the page cache. This is used to keep pages
that do not need to be cached from the page cache. For example,
pages that are generated only from Direct Actions and which do not
contain Component Action URLs do not need to be cached.
*
* @param aPage the WOComponent to check for eligibility
* @return codetrue/code if the passed WOComponent is
eligible to be added to the page cache
*/
public boolean shouldCachePage(WOComponent aPage)
{
return ! (aPage instanceof PartialPage);
}
Where PartialPage is an interface that components can implement to
indicate that they don't belong in the page cache.
Hey, great tip. That makes component actions easier to use with Ajax.
Hmmm... So I'll have to go adjust my component class hierarchy:
WOComponent
EZComponent
EZPagelet
EZPage
So both EZPagelet and EZPage can pull stuff out of a direct action
URL via key value coding, but EZPagelet's default to not being
cacheable. I can avoid the instance of call by doing:
public void savePage(WOComponent aPage)
{
if (((EZPagelet) aPage).shouldCache())
{
super.savePage(aPage);
}
}
and making sure that EZPagelet and EZPage both implement shouldCache
() (pagelet returns false, page returns true).
That's going to enforce that all direct actions are subclasses of
EZPage or EZPagelet, but that's a good thing for security anyways.
