Re: Error Message in Eclipse

If this has just started happening and you've done nothing else (e.g., changed 
configs etc) then maybe try creating a new workspace.

Searching for things within Confluence is still problematic, but I do
believe its still the best place for showing _how_ to use things in
general. I've found better explanations there on average than what I
can glean from the java docs, but mostly that's because I'm more
example-driven than one to discern usage from Java Docs. Each has
their advantages to different people. That said, if its a copy from
the java docs, then yes it should be by reference.

I think ideally that you have all your Wonder frameworks in
Confluence, a nice intro/example page for each framework, with links
to the java docs to avoid duplication and/or outdated-ness where
possible.

 In your model, it has a to-one relationship to ERAttachment, right?  it 
 should have figured that out automagically and not even required 
 ERAttachment declared explicitly, though it's generally a good thing to do 
 anyway, since an explicit declaration defines the version #.

Re: ertaggable not migrating

2010-01-25 Thread Mike Schrag
not sure which docs you were looking at, but the package.html (which i consider 
to be The Docs (TM) ) looks correct:

public ERTaggable taggable() {
return ERTaggable.taggable(this);
}

public static ERTaggableEntity taggableEntity() {
return ERTaggableEntity.taggableEntity(Person.ENTITY_NAME);
}

notice it's using the factory method not the constructor.

Re: ertaggable not migrating

2010-01-25 Thread Joe Little
Another hitch. Docs say to create a convenience method:

ERTaggableEntity provides entity-level tag management and fetching
methods. Typically you would provide a cover method from your entity
class to an instance of an ERTaggableEntity: public class Person
extends _Person { ... public static ERTaggableEntity taggableEntity()
{ return new ERTaggableEntity(Person.ENTITY_NAME); } }

So.. when I define

public static ERTaggableEntity taggableEntity() {
return new ERTaggableEntity(Company.ENTITY_NAME);
}

I get an error since Company.ENTITY_NAME returns a string where as the
ERTaggableEntity expects an EOEntity in the constructor. However,
nothing else seems to work there either. Another point where I must be
doing something wrong.

Re: ertaggable not migrating

2010-01-25 Thread Joe Little
I wanted a to-many relationship for attachments on multiple entities
(journals, payments,invoices, whatnot). In the end, I added that one
line model dependency and it work. My model defines an entity called
FileAttachment, which itself is modeled as a to-many for multiple
other entities. FileAttachment has only the to-one relationship to
ERAttachment as it seemingly requires based on what's documented. This
may add a little work in creating an extra entity before uploads can
happen, but it cleanly allows the two-many that I need.

Re: Sorting Nulls with Oracle

2010-01-25 Thread arosenzweig
Hi All,

The main question Dave was asking was how to give back to the community 
his useful fix for a very important piece of this problem.

I believe the answer is to just use NSProperties. That way the option can 
be given in the Properties file, from the command line, or even from your 
home directory. Here's the API:

http://developer.apple.com/legacy/mac/library/documentation/MacOSXServer/Reference/WO54_Reference/com/webobjects/foundation/NSProperties.html

All the other notes from Dave and Chuck are valuable and something you'll 
need to address in your own applications. Especially the "Ask Tom" URL 
that Dave gave. I'll cut and paste it again for completeness:

http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/07-jan/o17asktom.html

Also this other "Ask Tom" article:

http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/06-sep/o56asktom.html

One option you have is to jump start from what Mike has given you in the 
"OracleSQLHelper" then roll your own and replace it at runtime. This is 
also true for whatever database you use. Not only can you attempt to tweak 
it to get deterministic results in the general case using the oracle 
reserved keyword "rowid" you can go one step further. (BTW - "rowid" is 
like guid for the row). You can impliment an interface for specific 
Entities where you want to control what column to use for deterministic 
behavior. You can define something in the "userinfo" dictionary and make 
your generation templates latch onto that. In this way, when it comes time 
to do the clever batching, you can use either "rowid" or the special 
column of your entity if one is defined in Entity Modeler.

Cheers,
-- Aaron ___

In your model, it has a to-one relationship to ERAttachment, right?  it should 
have figured that out automagically and not even required ERAttachment declared 
explicitly, though it's generally a good thing to do anyway, since an explicit

Re: ertaggable not migrating

2010-01-25 Thread Mike Schrag
no .. i just assumed you had an ERAttachmentMigration subclass in your app that 
was adding the foreign key.  if you just generated a migration from Entity 
Modeler directly, then you won't need that subclass (because the foreign key 
will be a part of your existing migration class). the way things are SUPPOSED 
to work is that it builds a graph of relationships to figure out what the model 
dependencies are. you should see on your console that it attempts to run a 
migration on ERAttachment prior to your entity that depends on ERAttachment. In 
your migration class, try putting that explicit model dependencies declaration 
and see if that fixes it.

Re: Port 443 appending

Once you stray outside of ERXAjax*, you definitely take on dependencies ... I 
just committed a fix that removes two presumptions that you are inside of an 
ERXApplication. I would make sure to run your test cases if you switch over.

In ERXRequest:



Thanks, Mike, I think that will work... we're using ERXAjaxApp, which  
apparently doesn't use ERXRequest.


Anyone know of any gotchas if I just override _createRequest in my  
Application and return an ERXRequest (like ERXApplication does)? Does  
ERXRequest play well with ERXAjaxApplication?

hmmm ... out of curiosity, in your ERAttachmentMigration subclass, if you add 
the method:

  
  @Override
  public NSArray modelDependencies() {
return new NSArray(new ERXModelVersion("ERAttachment", 
1));
  }


does that fix it? we should probably put that in there.

Re: ertaggable not migrating

I'll do that. Also ran into trouble with ERAttachment. Doesn't it
auto-migrate in the table creation?

Failed to execute 'ALTER TABLE FILE_ATTACHMENT ADD CONSTRAINT
FILE_ATTACHMENT_ATTACHMENT_ID_id_FK FOREIGN KEY (ATTACHMENT_ID)
REFERENCES ERAttachment (id) DEFERRABLE INITIALLY DEFERRED'
ERROR: relation "erattachment" does not exist

"If you use Project Wonder migrations and migrateOnStartup, then the
ERAttachment tables will be automatically created for you on the first
launch. If you do not, then you can either manually execute the
.migration SQL scripts that are in the Resources folder (execute them
in numeric order), or you can open the EOModel and generate SQL for
your particular database."

I definitely have the migrations running as that's how I'm building my
DB and adding ERTaggable.

Re: How to set jvmOptions for an eclipse project?

2010-01-25 Thread Tim Kliewer

Thanks Chuck!

I figured it out minutes after I sent my plea for help ... and I was  
using that page for guidance.


My only problem with that page was that there were some "connections"  
implied but not spelled out. I will try to add a comment that would  
make it clearer to a caveman like me!

you can use Wonder's variant of JavaMonitor to check if a specific

No, that is something different.  The monitor actions are interesting,

Re: Port 443 appending

2010-01-25 Thread Mike Schrag
If you're extending ERXApp, I seem to recall that we fix this ourselves "the 
hard way," though I ran into this in 5.3 as well -- that you'd randomly get a 
port stuck on when you didn't want it (80 or 443).

In ERXRequest:


@Override
public void _completeURLPrefix(StringBuffer stringbuffer, boolean 
secure, int port) {
if (_secureDisabled) {
secure = false;
}

String serverName = _serverName();
String portStr;
if (port == 0) {
String sslPort = 
String.valueOf(ERXApplication.erxApplication().sslPort());
portStr = secure ? sslPort : _serverPort();
} else {
portStr = WOShared.unsignedIntString(port);
}
if (secure) {
stringbuffer.append("https://";);
} else {
stringbuffer.append("http://";);
}
stringbuffer.append(serverName);
if(portStr != null && ((secure && !"443".equals(portStr)) || 
(!secure && !"80".equals(portStr {
stringbuffer.append(':');
stringbuffer = stringbuffer.append(portStr);
}

On Jan 25, 2010, at 12:32 AM, Amiel Montecillo wrote:


Hi List,

I am having a dilemma on how to best implement this kind of scenario.

I need the update process of an EO by creating an new EO with the  
updated values and archiving the old one. This EO has quiet a few to- 
many relationships that needs to be archived as well.


I am thinking of copying the existing values along with the  
relationship values to an NSDictionary and tie that to the form.  
Once the save action fires, inspect if there are any changed values  
and create a new EO with the updated values and archive the old one.


Can anyone suggest a better way of handling this?


Use the EOCopying code from Practical WebObjects.  If you want to edit  
eo, instead edit eo.copy().  The copy() method should mark the  
existing object as archived.  If the user saves, the existing object  
will be saved marked as archived, and new objects will be created.   
You will need to handle how these objects are referenced in  
relationships so you don't show archived versions.


The GVCGenericObjects framework shows one way of doing this, though it  
is NOT intended for use as an audit trail.

http://www.global-village.net/chill/gvc_frameworks


There have been several good discussions on various audit trail  
implementations on the list.  Search for "audit trail".  You need to  
carefully evaluate your requirements and choose your implementation  
accordingly.

Re: Sorting Nulls with Oracle

2010-01-25 Thread Chuck Hill


On Jan 25, 2010, at 8:14 AM, David Avendasora wrote:


Hi all,

Aaron Rosenzweig and I discussed the issue of how to properly  
implement control over how Oracle and EOF sort nulls at this month's  
WONoVA (http://groups.google.com/group/webobjects-nova).


The only time, as far as I know, where it becomes necessary to worry  
about this is when you are using ERXBatchingDisplayGroup and the  
result set is larger than the batch size. Oracle and EOF don't agree  
on how to do this so you will get results that are confusing to  
users if there are nulls in a column being sorted on.


Basically, what we've come down to is that there are 3 different  
behaviors that have to be handled - you should only need to figure  
out which one you want to use and then implement it for your  
application:


1) Nulls Last - Oracles default - null values will always be LAST in  
the result set, regardless of sort direction (asc, desc).
2) Nulls First - null values will always be FIRST in the result set,  
regardless of sort direction (asc, desc).
3) EOF-like - null values will be sorted as though it were the  
smallest possible value. First when sorted ascending, Last when  
sorted descending.


To accomplish #1 and #2 you have to create new ComparisonSupport  
classes in EOF, otherwise EOF will resort the result set according  
to the conflicting "nulls are the smallest possible value" rule.


To accomplish #3 Oracle's default sorting behavior needs to be  
modified. Luckily Oracle allows you simply to add NULLS FIRST or  
NULLS LAST to the end of a ORDER BY statement. For example "ORDER BY  
NAME ASC NULLS FIRST". I have modified the EROraclePlugin to add  
NULLS FIRST to ascending sorts and NULLS LAST to descending sorts.  
Simple.


Well, not so fast. There are two issues that still need addressing:

1) Oracle query results are not deterministic if you are sorting on  
a column with non-unique data in it. Because of this, the same DB  
record could show up in the DisplayGroup in multiple batches and  
some may never show up. The only way around this is to always sort  
on some guaranteed unique column, or by possibly implementing more  
advanced Oracle functions in the plugin. See here for more detail: http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/07-jan/o17asktom.html


The existing code in the ERXSQLHelper.OracleSQLHelper  
limitExpressionForSQ() method allows for several different methods  
of trying to deal with this, but none are a complete solution. At  
this point, our business logic allows us to add a unique column to  
the sort so the existing code works just fine, but eventually  
someone is going to get bit by this, but I'm not sure what to do  
about it other than document the shortcoming in a comment in the  
source code.


I would expect that this is true for most/all databases.  And I also  
suspect that this is a common issue when using ERXBatchingDisplayGroup  
and commonly overlooked.  Forcing the last sort value to be the PK  
would address this, I think.  You will probably have to wrestle EOF if  
the PK is not exposed.



Chuck



2) One solution does not fit everyone (ie. Aaron and I have  
different business requirements for null sorting), so we need a way  
of specifying which sorting method an application uses. Obviously  
the Property seems the most logical, but since the EROraclePlugin  
doesn't depend upon ERExtensions, and I'm assuming it probably  
shouldn't, we can't use Wonder's property handling. How should this  
be done? Suggestions?

We use Nagios with the check_http module (bundled with the default

fetch a very small dataset with EOF and another one by raw JDBC. By  
doing one check by EOF and one by JDBC, we can see if it's a EOF  
deadlock or not. The most important thing: don't check a page that  
use sessions! If you try to stop an app cleanly but Nagios or other  
tools keeps creating new sessions, you might have a fun time.


As for checking specific instances, you can specific the instance  
number in the URL, but the problem is that the HTTP adaptor will  
send you to another instance if the checked instance is dead. BUT  
you can use Wonder's variant of JavaMonitor to check if a specific  
instance is up or not.


Or, more easily, have the instance number returned in the response  
(e.g. "4 OK") so that the script can verify that the result is from  
the correct instance.

It occurred to me to check the documentation on the Project Wonder  
wiki (http://wiki.objectstyle.org/confluence/display/WONDER/Home) for  
Deployment issues. There is a general deployment issues page, but it  
had not been updated since 2007 and, since it discusses Xcode, it may  
need some updating. I pushed some of pages I found up into the main  
page under the existing header for "Deplyment Tools". But lots of  
stuff can still be done to make the doc current.


Just FYI.

Sorting Nulls with Oracle

2010-01-25 Thread David Avendasora
Hi all,

Aaron Rosenzweig and I discussed the issue of how to properly implement control 
over how Oracle and EOF sort nulls at this month's WONoVA 
(http://groups.google.com/group/webobjects-nova).

The only time, as far as I know, where it becomes necessary to worry about this 
is when you are using ERXBatchingDisplayGroup and the result set is larger than 
the batch size. Oracle and EOF don't agree on how to do this so you will get 
results that are confusing to users if there are nulls in a column being sorted 
on.

Basically, what we've come down to is that there are 3 different behaviors that 
have to be handled - you should only need to figure out which one you want to 
use and then implement it for your application:

1) Nulls Last - Oracles default - null values will always be LAST in the result 
set, regardless of sort direction (asc, desc).
2) Nulls First - null values will always be FIRST in the result set, regardless 
of sort direction (asc, desc).
3) EOF-like - null values will be sorted as though it were the smallest 
possible value. First when sorted ascending, Last when sorted descending.

To accomplish #1 and #2 you have to create new ComparisonSupport classes in 
EOF, otherwise EOF will resort the result set according to the conflicting 
"nulls are the smallest possible value" rule.

To accomplish #3 Oracle's default sorting behavior needs to be modified. 
Luckily Oracle allows you simply to add NULLS FIRST or NULLS LAST to the end of 
a ORDER BY statement. For example "ORDER BY NAME ASC NULLS FIRST". I have 
modified the EROraclePlugin to add NULLS FIRST to ascending sorts and NULLS 
LAST to descending sorts. Simple.

Well, not so fast. There are two issues that still need addressing:

1) Oracle query results are not deterministic if you are sorting on a column 
with non-unique data in it. Because of this, the same DB record could show up 
in the DisplayGroup in multiple batches and some may never show up. The only 
way around this is to always sort on some guaranteed unique column, or by 
possibly implementing more advanced Oracle functions in the plugin. See here 
for more detail: 
http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/07-jan/o17asktom.html

The existing code in the ERXSQLHelper.OracleSQLHelper limitExpressionForSQ() 
method allows for several different methods of trying to deal with this, but 
none are a complete solution. At this point, our business logic allows us to 
add a unique column to the sort so the existing code works just fine, but 
eventually someone is going to get bit by this, but I'm not sure what to do 
about it other than document the shortcoming in a comment in the source code.

2) One solution does not fit everyone (ie. Aaron and I have different business 
requirements for null sorting), so we need a way of specifying which sorting 
method an application uses. Obviously the Property seems the most logical, but 
since the EROraclePlugin doesn't depend upon ERExtensions, and I'm assuming it 
probably shouldn't, we can't use Wonder's property handling. How should this be 
done? Suggestions?

Oops; meant to mention setStoresIDsInURLs(true) and 
setStoresIDsInCookies(false) as the default option. 

Which lead me to the following experience: 

Anybody aware of any side effects of setting 

setStoresIDsInURLs(true);
setStoresIDsInCookies(true);

in the session constructor?

I tried it, and it did seem to work in Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari. 

The reason is that I do not want to burden the compliant browsers with not 
being able to traverse the surrounding environment of the iframe the 
reservation app is framed in, and coming back to continue the reservation only 
to discover that their session has gone and they have to start all over again. 
So ABIE (Anything But Internet Explorer) will use the cookies sessionids, and 
Internet Explorer will use the URL sessionids. 

And I do not want to bother about checking for Browsers, as I would have to do 
it at every Direct Action entrance into the app that would lead to a session:



if(request().headerForKey("User-Agent").contains("MSIE")){
mySess().setStoresIDsInCookies(false);
mySess().setStoresIDsInURLs(true);
log.info("NOOO: Internet Explorer");
} else {
mySess().setStoresIDsInCookies(true);
mySess().setStoresIDsInURLs(false);
log.info("Anything goes but Exploder");
}

Unless somebody knows a more elegant solution with three lines of code in one 
central place that would take care of the sessionid probs with Internet Explorer

Re: recognising dead instances

2010-01-25 Thread Denis Frolov
Hi Lachlan,

Checking direct actions is a great idea. We also do a periodic
"netstat -n | grep CLOSE_WAIT", kill the instances which have too many
connections in CLOSE_WAIT state and send alert emails with additional
info (mysql process list, app's intance log tail, instance's dump,
open files via lsof).

Arguably, this is a bit easier to implement and maintain on a server
with lots of different apps. Especially, when you cannot modify the
app itself.

This is exactly what we do too. We then use pingdom to keep hitting

Re: recognising dead instances

2010-01-25 Thread Christoph Wick
We normally implement a direct action - let's call it "checkSystemStatus" - 
that performs a fetch to ensure the database operates the way we want it. If 
this fetch succeeds, we just return the string "OK". Otherwise we return the 
exception message and the stack trace.

On a second system, we run a bunch of crontab controlled shell scripts (every 
10 min) that perform a "wget" on that direct action, e.g. 
"http://YOURSERVER/cgi-bin/WebObjects/YOURAPP.woa/YOURINSTANCE/wa/checkSystemStatus";.
 If that wget returns something different from "OK", we send an email with the 
result.

Very simple, but it works for us.
