Re: What is the best way to handle invalid values from a WOTextField?
How about bug reports with simple reductions, and I can have a look at
them ASAIC (as soon as I can)?

Did you try the "we are all happy citizens"-setting for encoding?
er.extensions.ERXApplication.DefaultEncoding=UTF-8
That helped for us, when we had problems with a file upload in
that form. There was also a bug in WO regarding comparison where
it did an == comparison instead of equals when comparing encoding
names. That should be fixed in nightly builds but probably didn't
make it to 5.4.2.
That did not fix it. The upload works fine on 5.3.3. I also get
the same problem if I take the upload off of the page! It really
seems to be the form settings. But I can't reproduce it in a
stand alone demo app.
That's interesting. I'm at a loss now. As I said: we saw similar
behaviour when we had the encoding not properly set up. Don't know
other cases.
Guido wins the prize!
A long time ago, for reasons that are no longer clear to us, we
added this code to our Session superclass:
/**
* Overridden to force request values to be UTF-8 encoded.
*/
public void takeValuesFromRequest(WORequest aRequest, WOContext
aContext)
{
aRequest.setDefaultFormValueEncoding(_NSUtilities.UTF8StringEncoding);
super.takeValuesFromRequest(aRequest, aContext);
}
Now, session is probably not the best place to do this, but it
worked fine until 5.4.2. So, there are two fun parts to this:
1. _NSUtilities.UTF8StringEncoding is wrong:
public static final String UTF8StringEncoding = "UTF8";
That should be UTF-8. The code was changing UTF-8 to UTF8 and
that is what triggered the bug.
2. WORequest.setDefaultFormValueEncoding() discards any previously
parsed form values. Which is OK usually, but with a content-type
of multipart/form-data, it does not seem to be able to re-parse
them. So you silently end up with no form values.
I feel some bug reports coming on!

Re: More efficient web service choice
Same with us. A properly architected API solves all of these problems and then some. You have to architect it using only standard java data types -- dont use EOF/NS or collections -- you screw yourself when working with non-java clients. What I like best about SOAP -- its dead simple to develop for when you use WO, and rock-solid. We even have stateful webservices using database backed sessions -- all of our API's (except authenticate) take a SessionInfo object (our own object type made of simple objects including a wosid), and we restore the session from the database using that object. If you're developing rock-solid enterprise class API's to be used by clients across a wide spectrum of tools/operating systems, I think you can do no wrong using SOAP.

EO generating and Interfaces
Not sure if this has been covered before, but we are trying to migrate
to the new Veogen tool from the old Rubicode tool, and are running
into a few issues, mainly with generics and interfaces.
The new templates generate a method like this :
public NSArray workshops() {
return
(NSArray
)storedValueForKey("workshops");
}
where the old ones would leave the generic off. Now 99% of the time,
this is perfect, but in this one case, WorkshopMaster also conforms to
the RRSCalendarEvent interface, and that is what we want. Is there any
way to have veogen change that or are we hosed and have lots of code
to rewrite?

Re: [OT] Moscone center infected?
Well, the food at JavaOne was about 1% better than WWDC food, and served in bio-degradable dishes, so that deals somewhat with the waste issue. San Jose food in the 90's was so far beyond what they call food now. One thing that San Jose WWDC's had over the current ones is that there were always sessions through lunch time, so you were not stuck with 2+ hours of nothing to do (maybe they expect people to leave Moscone to get edible food).

The first year or 2 in SF we got Jamba Juice, so we could skip a meal or two. Now we get warm food on Monday which is quite OK. The rest of the week we get only snacks. Mostly brown bagged so you don't see ahead of time what you are going to end up with. BTW, I complain about food each year on the feedback form.

Re: WO 5.4 / Axis 1.4 / Deserialization
A slightly better way to use webservices (especially if you expect them to be consumed by non-WO applications) is to use primitive types. For instance, if you need to return an array of Foo, the return type for the service method would be Foo[]. We never expose our EO's via webservices, we usually wrap them in POJOs which have very specific attributes for the service and non- required attributes are not exposed. David. On Feb 26, 2008, at 7:22 PM, Michael DeMan wrote: Okay, This workaround seems to work. On the server side I put my array elements in as keys for a WOStringKeyMap and modified the client to get the result array back out via allKeys(). This is a huge problem however as every service, including EOs that contain arrays, would need methods changed/wrapped to return WOStringKeyMap instead of arrays, and this of course would have to be done for both the server and client applications. Does anybody know if Apple has a prioritization on getting this fixed? From what I can tell so far this basically makes WO5.4/5.4.1 unusable as a web services consumer (unless of course you never need to use arrays). - mike On Feb 25, 2008, at 1:41 PM, Art Isbell wrote: On Feb 25, 2008, at 9:09 AM, Michael DeMan wrote: Does anybody know if the item noted on the posting below is fixed in 5.4.1, and if not, could anybody describe the workaround? http://www.mail-archive.com/webobjects-dev@lists.apple.com/ msg15103.html It is apparently not fixed in 5.4.1.

Re: Writing Oracle Blobs under WO 5.4 - WO fails
Hi Michael,
Not much changed under the hood for the oracle support in WO 5.4, so
I don't think that the problem is there. What Oracle version are you
using? If 10g, you should download the latest jdbc drivers and try
those (actually, the latest support 9i as well).
There is also a fantastic debugging JDBC driver from Oracle too,
which can use log4j to output alot more than EODebuggingEnabled will
ever give you. If it is still a problem, try that.
We are using CLOB's and BLOB's with 5.4 and Tiger with no issues.

Thanks Dov – that’s an tricky problem to look out for.
Unfortunately my problem is with blobs, not with dates.
I did try the compatibility flag though, but no luck. I also

fine under WO5.3 with the same drivers, so I’m not surprised.
Is there anyone out there who has successfully written Oracle blobs

Hi All
Has anyone had any success writing blobs to an Oracle DB under WO
5.4?
I have a large project that makes extensive use of blobs and
works fine under WO 5.3 but throws the following error when
writing a blob under WO 5.4:
com.webobjects.eoaccess.EOGeneralAdaptorException: Unsupported
feature
(See full dump below.)
The code can read existing blobs from an Oracle DB without any
problems. It’s just writing that causes exceptions.
To eliminate other factors, I created a test project with a
simple version of the offending code. It uses a table –
BlobTable – with just a primary key and a blob field. The code
attempting the write is below. It gets text data from a form via
a key called ‘notes’. (The BlobTable already contains one record.)
NSArray blobs = EOUtilities.objectsForEntityNamed(session
().defaultEditingContext(), "BlobTable");
if ((blobs != null) && (blobs.count() > 0)) {
BlobTable blob = (BlobTable)blobs.objectAtIndex(0);
NSData blobData = new NSData(notes(), "UTF8");
blob.setBlobData(blobData);
session().defaultEditingContext().saveChanges();
}
The problem is occurring on an OS X Leopard box in either Xcode
or Eclipse (not that that should matter). The JDBC driver is for
Oracle 9i 9.2.0.8 – it’s a file called ojdbc14.jar.
If anyone has Oracle blobs working under 10.4, that would be
great news – I’d would then know to dig deeper rather than file a
bug report.
Better still – how did you do it?
Thanks

Re: recurring events
Hi Mike,
We have done this on several occasions. Here is our model for an
event that can be recurring :
Event
---
the basic event data
>frequency
Frequency
---
dayOfMonth // the day of the month that the event must occur on
daysFromMonthEnd // the number of days from the month end the event
occurs on
daysFromMonthStart // the number of days from the month start the
event occurs on
daysOfWeek // a bit string representing the days of the week this
occurs on (ie. 0101010 = Monday Wednesday Friday)
recurUntil // when to stop recurring
In Frequency.java, in awakeFromInsertion, we set the bit string to
all zeroes
here is more code :
/**
* The daysOfWeek attribute is stored as a binary string with 7 digits
* (one for every day of the week). The value for any day is 0 or 1.
* This method returns whether or not the frequency for a task occurs

public boolean occursOnDayOfWeek(int iDayOfWeek) {

if (aValue == '1')
aResult = true;
} catch (IndexOutOfBoundsException e) {

aCharList[iDayOfWeek-1] = aValue;
} catch (IndexOutOfBoundsException e) {

setDaysOfWeek(new String(aCharList));
}

Re: Any tutorials on using direct actions and/or component actions with AJAX
I for one would never use the Wonder Ajax framework, even though I
think it is excellent. My reasons are twofold :
- Wonder
- Prototype/Scriptaculous
We won't use Wonder because we have an excellent base of frameworks
we developed over the years which has much functionality not in Wonder.
We will never use Prototype/Scriptaculous because they are massive,
even gzipped and minimized. We still have users on slower
connections, on machines with no proxy or cache, and downloading 200k
+ of javascript is not acceptable. Our page sizes are all under 80k,
with most under 30k. Our javascript tops out at 32k.
So, if you wish to do WO/Ajax with direct actions, it is quite easy
as was previously stated.
If you want to use component actions, it gets more difficult, and
requires a little digging into WO internals to understand it all, but
it is possible, and we are using it heavily in one of our apps.
What we have done is create our own WODynamicElement subclasses for
ajax. We have ajax hyperlinks, forms, data-tables, etc. The key piece
of this is that instead of using the component action request handler
you use the ajaxRequestHandler
protected void appendAjaxActionURLToResponse(WOResponse iResponse,
WOContext iContext, boolean iEscapeHTML) {
String aUrl = iContext.componentActionURL(WOApplication.application
().ajaxRequestHandlerKey());
iResponse.appendContentString(aUrl);
}
Hope this helps a bit.

Hi Chuck,
Thanks for the input, but I thought I should clarify my reasons for
wanting to learn Ajax and WO sans libraries and for not using
Project Wonder in my apps. My reason for wanting to learn how to do
the Ajax and WO stuff by hand is that I am brand new to both and I
like to learn how things work before I feel comforable using them.
I agree that to get things done I need to be using a well tested/
established set of libraries and I will be doing so in my
professional work, but in my spare time I want to learn how it all
ticks behind the magic. Just like when I learned to program, I
learned my first language and used it for two years while I worked
my way through a pair of undergrad and grad classes in compiler
construction and language design. Once I had written my first
language I felt like I understood programming in general better, so
I would like to do the same with MVC based web frameworks and Ajax.
Now, as for why I'm not using Project Wonder, well that's not
really my choice. The company I work for has a very mature library
for Ajax that they are using for all of their projects and I have
to use that in my day-to-day development.
So, I hope that clears up why I'm not using Wonder (I would if I
could) and why I want to learn everything at the lowest level.
Again, thanks for all your input, it has been very helpful.

Hi Jean Pierre,

I will point out that this is probably the worst possible decision
you can make with respect to using WO. Given the very, very
liberal license (use whatever you want, however you want) and the
availability of source, there is no sane reason to not use
Wonder. Without Wonder you condemn your project to unfixed bugs
in WO and a MASSIVE amount of code that will need to be written.
Wonder saves time and produces better code each and every day that
you use it.
, so I've mainly stayed away from it for that reason. Also, what
I'm really looking for are some simple examples that would show
me how to do everything from scratch (I.e., no Javascript
libraries or WO libraries) so that I can get a good feel for how
these technologies work together before using a library for my
day-to-day work.
While I applaud your desire to know how things work, just use the
Ajax framework from Wonder. It makes Ajax work the WO way. Mike
et al put a TON of "under the covers" work into this. You really
don't want to have to duplicate that level of knowledge and
understanding. And if you don't, what you come up with will be
substandard. I don't see any business value in that. You can
learn how things works gradually, later as you need to integrate
third party Ajax things into your project (and hopefully into
Wonder).

You wouldn't happen to know of any good resources that would fit

Re: Date-Only NSTimestamps
Adding to this whole discussion...
I work on a rather large scheduling app that has to work globally. We
store all time in GMT and then convert it on the fly depending on the
timezone and locale of the user accessing the app.
For this, we use a few different java DateFormat's depending on what
type of time we need to present either in the Session or in a
ThreadLocal depending on the app being used (there are many different
apps).
We also have a few methods to do start of day and end of day as well.
The key for us is using GregorianCalendar for everything -- as soon
as we need to do any sort of date math, we make a GregorianCalendar
object out of the timestamp. Conversion between GMT and a local
timezone is simple too :
/**
* Returns a new time stamp for the passed in Timezone.
*
* @param iMillis time stamp to be converted
* @param iZone Timzone in which conversion is needed.
* @return an NSTimestamp with date converted to iZone.
*/
public static NSTimestamp changeDateForTimezone(long iMillis,
TimeZone iZone) {
long anOffset = 0l;
if (iZone != null)
anOffset = iZone.getOffset(iMillis);
return new NSTimestamp(iMillis + anOffset);
}
public static NSTimestamp changeDateForTimezone(NSTimestamp
iTimestamp, TimeZone iZone) {
return changeDateForTimezone(iTimestamp.getTime(), iZone);
}
If anyone needs more info on how we use time and timezones, please
contact me.
Thanks,
David.

cheers.
Because of this, storing any date in local time instead of GMT is
likely to leads to disappointment. There is no guarantee that the
time zone you used to store your date will be the same than the
one you used to retrieve it. I fact there is a good possibility
that this will have changed under your feet. Typically each
revision of the JVM includes a new version of the time zone
database. The only safe way of storing dates is GMT as this is by
definition guaranteed not to change.

Re: fetch EOs using Oracle stored procedures
Hi James, 1. I can't really help you with writing stored procedures other than saying your procedure should be a function that returns a ref_cursor if you are expecting multiple results. 2. You can fetch using : public static NSArray rawRowsForStoredProcedureNamed(EOEditingContext ec, String name,NSDictionary args) This will return an array of NSDictionary (raw rows). If this is being used to display results, you are best to leave them as raw rows and just put a repetition over the array of rows. Bind your iterator to a dictionary and then use key value coding to get columns out of the dictionary (be sure to use column names as the key, not your fancy attribute names). When a user needs to inspect a row from this list, turn that one row back to an EO using : public static EOEnterpriseObject objectWithPrimaryKeyValue (EOEditingContext ec, String entityName, Object value) Hope this helps.

Re: daylight saving time problem

That being said, if you avoid using timezones with NSTimestamp, and

then you are good. If you need that one, then try :

iHours, iMinutes, iSeconds);
if (iZone != null)
aCal.setTimeZone(iZone);
return new NSTimestamp(aCal.getTime());

OR to change timezone on an existing date :
/**

Re: NSTimestamp problem
Here is the gist of the problem :
1. You need Java 1.4.2.11 or Java 1.5.0.6 to get the new zone files.
2. If you are using NSTimestamp, you need to not use it for timezone
stuff. WO still uses NSTimezone when you pass in a Java TimeZone, and
uses its own zone files, which are hopelessly out of date.
In our case, we store everything in the db as GMT, and then convert
on the fly depending on what zone the user is in. We use the
following methods :
/**
* Returns a new time stamp for the passed in Timezone.
*
* @param iMillis time stamp to be converted
* @param iZone Timzone in which conversion is needed.
* @return an NSTimestamp with date converted to iZone.
*/
public static NSTimestamp changeDateForTimezone(long iMillis,
TimeZone iZone) {
long anOffset = 0l;
if (iZone != null)
anOffset = iZone.getOffset(iMillis);
return new NSTimestamp(iMillis + anOffset);
}
public static NSTimestamp changeDateForTimezone(NSTimestamp
iTimestamp, TimeZone iZone) {
return changeDateForTimezone(iTimestamp.getTime(), iZone);
}
Hope this helps.

I notice the sun tool says:
The java.vendor property value must be "Sun Microsystems Inc.".
so I bet it won't work for Apple JVMs. It didn't appear that Apple
had a JVM release that met the dates shown on the sun page. Maybe
we are stuck?
Thanks to all for the VERY timely replies to my problem. Art is
correct that compiled timezone files are kept in /System/Library/
Frameworks/
JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/Home/lib/zi.
Apparently the file for my area "Denver" has been fixed in a newer
version of the apple java. I downloaded that version and copied the
"Denver" file from the zi directory into my 1.5.0 zi directory. Now
the problem is gone (so far) on the development system, but still
does not work correctly on the deployment system :(
Still searching for a reason...
Thanks to all,
Dan Faber

Re: Xcode and WO development?
I think what we need is a migration guide for us xcode users, including what needs to be checked into cvs, and how to get around some of the useful xcode features I have not yet figured out how to get around (like merging jars together). However, I have made the move and it was less painful than I thought it would be. On Dec 11, 2006, at 1:08 PM, Chuck Hill wrote: That is how I recall it going.
