Webobjects WoLips Wonder Tutorial Questions
I have been following the tutorial "WO_WOLips_Wonder_Tutorial_Part_1". The tutorial is wonderful and answers a lot of questions I had about setting up a project using wolips. I am running into a few problems with this tutorial 1. For some reason migrations is not creating the table. I can create the table using the generate SQL button however, Migrations does not create the table. (I am using a separate MySQL sever). 2. When Webobjects generates the .java and _ .java it places them into Sources/(default package) rather than com.login.model. How do I set where the generated java files are placed? 3. When I run the program and type in a valid username / password using the fetchRequiredUser function I get a classCastException on _fetchUser in _User. Could this be cause from me creating a com.login.model package and moving the contents of the default package into this folder? *After I refreshed _User.java User.java reappear in the default package and now I have duplicates.

SQL Server 2005 Support Request 2
I am having problems connecting Entity Modeler to SQL Server 2005 DB. I am using webobjects v5.4.3 First of all I found the last two articles on this subject extremely helpful. Each article got me closer to connecting to the database. I had the same problem as displayed in "RE: Microsoft SQL support" http://lists.apple.com/archives/Webobjects-dev/2007/May/msg00354.html. This corrected my Driver not found in Java Runtime error. However, the error that I now get is: Failed to Generate SQL. No suitable driver. I have tried placing Microsoft the 2005 JDBC Driver (sqljdbc.jar) in Library/Java/Extensions. Used all the versions I could find 1, 1.1, 1.2 and 2.0.

Wonder AJAX Fileupload problem.
Hi, I'm having trouble using the AJAX FileUpload component from Wonder. http://webobjects.mdimension.com/wonder/Wonder-latest-Frameworks-53.tar.gz FWIW this is the first time i tried to use any Wonder AJAX components. Basically I have used the example code that comes with wonder and have used that in my test project but when i hit the page containing the fileupload the page just re-renders the fileupload component over and over again until the 'done' alert is displayed. Any idea why this would happen? Regards, shaun ___ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Re: String Qualifier for Number

Hi All -
My users want to have the ability to search on a
Number attribute, but use String qualifiers such as
Contains ('*value*'), Begins With ('value*'), Ends
With ('*value').
I have a table named part that contains a primaryKey
named part_id (Number and exposed) and a String called
descriptor.
Is there a way to create an EOQualifier that
replicates the SQL in the example below?
Example: Select all parts with a part_id that begins
with 3.
select * from part where to_char(part_id) like '3%';
Maybe...
Add a new attribute called partIDAsString
Set the column to part_id
Set the datatype as string
Mark it as read only
Set the read format to to_char(%P)
Then make a qualifier on partIDAsString.
Interesting approach. I hope it works.
The other day I was trying to do exactly the same thing as descibed by
Carter.
I used the Wonder RegExQualifier class as a base for my own EOQualifier
implementation and created the sql as required calling to_char(id)
it was all going well up until it actually had to do the fetch, thats
when JDBCColumn in the JDBCAdaptor classes got in the way and spoiled
the fun; it checks that the object type provided matches the models type
but '%1001%' is NAN so it throws an Exception. I'm not sure if there
is somethign i can do to get around this or not?
At that stage i figured i needed to try something else. Your idea above
is next in line.
Thanks.

Re: How does WO enforce serial request processing per session?
Peter Vandoros wrote: We have a situation where we Single Sign On with a 3rd party system. When the user SSO's into our system, we need to keep their session alive in that 3rd party system for when the user re-enters that system. We do this by having a set of TimerTask's firing every X minutes. The idea is that if we detect that the user's session in the 3rd party system is no longer valid, we have to kick the user off our session. Essentially, logging the user out of our system. In this case, we need access to our WOSession in order to log the user out. How about something along the lines of: Every n minutes check the 3rd party system for session validity if 3rd party session is invalid then put sessionId in application.sessionsToTerminate. end if When WOApp session.awake is invoked if sessionId is in application.sessionsToTerminate session.terminate application.sessionsToTerminate.remove(sessionId) end if cheers, - shaun ___ Do not post admin requests to the list.

Re: SQL Query Generation
Michael Xenakis wrote:
All -
I'm trying to solve a lil' problem here. The semi-short story is that
prior to doing a fetch, I'm going to do a raw SQL fetch to determine
how many rows would be returned - i.e., I'll do a "select count(*)"
based on the search parameters. If the count is greater than a
predetermined fetch limit, then I respond w/ a message to further
restrict the query.
To do this, I build my qualifiers as usual create a fetch spec based on
the qualifiers and then pass them into a JDBCExpression. The code
looks like this:
EOFetchSpecification fetchSpec = new EOFetchSpecification
(entityName, searchQualifier, null);
JDBCExpression sqlExpression = new JDBCExpression(entity);
sqlExpression.prepareSelectExpressionWithAttributes
(entity.attributes(), false, fetchSpec);
String rawSQLQuery = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM " +
entity.externalName() + " WHERE " + sqlExpression.whereClauseString();
if (!sqlExpression.joinClauseString().equals("")) {
rawSQLQuery = rawSQLQuery + " AND " +
sqlExpression.joinClauseString();
}
Unfortunately, the where clause being generated by .whereClauseString ()
is parameterized, e.g.,
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM PLAYLIST t0, CONTENT_PROVIDER T1 WHERE
(((t0.FIRST_PRODUCTION_RELEASE is not ? AND t0.LAST_PRODUCTION_RELEASE
is ?) AND T1.CONTENT_PROVIDER_ID = ?) AND UPPER(t0.NAME) LIKE UPPER(?)
ESCAPE '\')
What I can't seem to figure is how to get the string returned w/ the
parameters replaced w/ the actual bound values.
So, first, am I heading down the right path or is there a better way?
If I am headed in the right direction, what am I missing?
You can use EOSQLExpression and bindVariables to substitute the keys and
values. Something along the lines of the follwoing:
Note: there are numerous problems with this code as it stands,
. BigDecimal formatting might not be right anymore Java 5 changes need
to call method other than toString(), should be toPlainString()? I think.
. Date formatting, Oracle specific?
EOSQLExpression expression.../ assume it exists.
String sql = expression.statement();
NSArray bindVariables = expression.bindVariableDictionaries();
if( (bindVariables == null) ||
(bindVariables.count()==0) ) return true;
for(int i=0; iNSDictionary bindVariable = (NSDictionary)
bindVariables.objectAtIndex(i);
String name = (String)
bindVariable.valueForKey("BindVariableName");
Object value =
bindVariable.valueForKey("BindVariableValue");
EOAttribute attribute = (EOAttribute)
bindVariable.valueForKey("BindVariableAttribute");
//TODO check for data type.
String formattedValue = "";
if( value == null )
formattedValue = "NULL";
else if( attribute.externalType().equals("DATE") )
formattedValue =
"TO_DATE('"+DateUtils.toStringUsingFormatter((NSTimestamp)value,"%Y-%m-%d
%H:%M:%S")+"','-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')";
else if( attribute.externalType().equals("NUMBER") )
formattedValue = value.toString();
else formattedValue = "'"+value.toString()+"'";
sql = StringUtils.replaceStringFirstMatch(sql, "?",
formattedValue);
}
HTH.

Re: Flex integration with WO
Hi, I have been using flex with WO for about 8-10 months now, building a new UI for new section of an existing app at the moment. Basically, the approach I have taken is using flex HTTPService calls to direct actions that return XML. The direct actions generate XML using some custom xml generation classes that make use of key value coding to inspect EOEntities, EOAttributes etc. but i digress... Having the result format set to "array" in Flex makes building a object graph on the client-side pretty painless. I've also built a EOGenerator style script to generate Actionscript classes for the client side based on EOModel attributes, which makes things a bit easier. I wanted to look into make LiveCycle Data services work with WO but its not supported on OSX at the moment and there have been way too many cool new things to get stuck into with Flex2/3 and AIR(beta) to bother, and they approach I've used so far works great. I dont think I'll bother building anymore WO UI's from now on. The flex stuff is WAY too nice. For me, WOComponent & WODynamicElements died (RIP) about 8 or 9 months ago.. IMO flex is the future of rich UI web applications. AJAX, HTML, no thanks.

Where the condition evaluates to true if key.equals(value). I am

Wonder.
There is also a WOKeyValueConditional component in the woextensions library.

Re: Best way to generate unique IDs that are not PKs
Florijan Stamenkovic wrote:
Hi all,
I have a need in several of my tables to generate identifying numbers,
but relative to a certain relationship. So, if there is a Book, I need
to generate number 6 for it if Author currently relates to 5 other
books... I have an approach of doing this, please anyone tell me if
there is a better way to do it!
My approach:
1.Lock the working thread on a monitor that is "static final" in my
SessionWorker class
2.Get the next number by using aBook.valueForKeyPath
("[EMAIL PROTECTED]");//can not use @count in case of
previous deletions
3.Set the next number in aBook
4.Save the changes of my working editing context
5.Release the synchronization lock
Questions:
Is there way to use EOF locking to lock on the database? It seems to me
that would be more appropriate for what I am doing then the plain Java
thread synching, and would work even if there were multiple application
servers running, where the above approach would not. Any other ideas
where this might flop and how to prevent it?
You might want to put a DB constraint on the column if you haven't
already. You could then catch the constraint violation exception and
take appropriate action.
I use a custom database function to do this type of thing. I use raw
rows sql to select the next value from the function, then stuff the
value into the relevant EO attribute.

It even easier now than it used to be because the eomodel bundle specs are available. Not using a GUI to build eomodels is actually quite liberating.

statement. This might cause the error in your sqlplus test, but
probably not in your WO app.
If you eliminate the unmatched double quote, replace the
remaining double quotes with single quotes, and rerun the
statement in sqlplus, does the error still occur? Searching
Google for "ORA-00972" produced one response that claimed that
this bogus error message can occur when double quotes are used.
Another Google search results states that an incorrect column
name can cause this error. Is it possible that an attribute in
your eomodel has a column name that doesn't match a column name in
the IDEA table?
Art,
First off, I appreciate your help!
I changed the SQL to
UPDATE IDEA SET STATUS = 'A' WHERE (IDEA_OID = 1 AND AVGRATING is
NULL AND CATEGORY_OID = 6 AND IDEADESC = 'afdsafadsfasfa' AND
IDEANAME = 'fdsfadf' AND IDEAURL is NULL AND NUMRATINGS is NULL AND
PARENT_OID is NULL AND STATUS = 'P' AND SUBMIT_DATE = to_date
('2006-10-08 00:00:00', '-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') AND USER_OID = 1)
2 ;
That returned 0 rows updated.
It seems like the SQL generated is off. I think it is the
SUBMIT_DATE part. My SQL maybe off.

What is the oracle data type for the SUBMIT_DATE attribute?
Hi Shaun,
SQL> desc IDEA
Name Null?Type
-
AVGRATING FLOAT(126)
CATEGORY_OID NOT NULL NUMBER
IDEADESC NOT NULL VARCHAR2(4000)
IDEANAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2(255)
IDEA_OID NOT NULL NUMBER
IDEAURLVARCHAR2(255)
NUMRATINGS NUMBER
PARENT_OID NUMBER
STATUSNOT NULL VARCHAR2(1)
SUBMIT_DATE NOT NULL DATE
USER_OID NOT NULL NUMBER
In my EO Model
submitDate maps to SUBMIT_DATE with
External Type of DATE
Value Class (Java) of NSTimestamp
Value (not sure what this might affect) of D
I have this in my notes regarding value type:
--
For attributes with a Value Class of NSTimestamp the following value
types are defined:
D
t
T
M
These value types affect how the data is transfer between the JDBC
adaptor and the database. An empty Value Type uses get/setObject() on
the ResultSet and PreparedStatement. It assumes the database can provide
a value compatible with a java.sql.Timestamp. A 'D' indicates
WebObject's JDBC adaptor should use get/setDate. A 't' indicates
get/setTime(), and a 'T' uses get/setTimestamp(). The 'M' value type is
a workaround for a bug in some MS SQLServer JDBC drivers. It only
support java.sql.Date.
--
I thought that I used T usually, but looking at some of my models I have
nothing set for a lot of the oracle DATE fields. The info above
indicates that if you only want the date portion then use a D, if you
want Date and time ie) a timestamp then use T.
Also, I'm using NSCalendarDate not NSTimestamp for valueClassName in my
eomodels. Using NSTimestamp in the classes. I have a much older version
of Oracle and WO5.3. FWIW most of my eomodels are also quite old now.
HTH.

Re: EO/Java class default Values
d Person objects will be automatically initialised! Sometimes when you have a lot of overridden methods code can become a bit harder to grok at a glance. When a developer knows where to look for defaults(awakeFromInsertion) i think that it makes life a lot easier, rather than skimming through a bunch of long method names to see a default value or to understand which values need/should have defaults and what those defaults can be. FWIW. I also like to use the factory method pattern for constructing WOComponents too. YMMV. It seems that quite often something which makes sense to one person doesnt work so well for another, just something to consider I guess.. regards, - shaun ___ Do not post admin requests to the list.

Re: Mysterious EditingContext Swap
Hi Owen,
I have seen this error before but I am only guessing as to the cause of
it in your case.
It seems that all the objects are in the correct context so printing
ec.insertedObjects is probably not going to help.
From the code and comments you have made in the email, it seems that
the active context is getting set somehow.
The only way that I know to make the active context is to use it in a
fetch or possibly a relationship traversal from an object in a different
context.
I would try removing the PersonLDAP section of code, it could be the
LDAP fetch that is the cause of the error.

Re: The most strange problem with bindings...
Hi Miguel, Miguel Arroz wrote: Hi! I'm having a bizarre problem relating to bindings, and I honestly cannot understand why the heck this is happening. I can solve it easily - or should I way, build a work-around - but I impose myself higher levels of quality! ;) Ok, here's the story: 1) I'm building an WO application that should work in two languages. 2) I have a WrapperComponent that wraps all the other components. That wrapper component contains a repetition in the HEAD html code to load JavaScript files. The repetition contains the path of the files to be read (array of strings). That array (let's call it listOfFiles) is on the WrapperComponent API. 3) WrapperComponent has another component inside, NavigationComponent. That component has a form and a pop-up that allows the user to select the language. The pop-up auto-submits when changed. Basically, the code changes the session language array, and returns "return pageWithName(context().page().name());" 4) I have a component, for the example, let's use the Main component. The Main component contains a WrapperComponent, with some stuff inside. On the Java code, I have a method "public NSArray scriptFiles()" that returns an array with the file paths. There's no instance variable or setter, naturally. 5) I have another component, let's call it "SimpleComponent", that contains a WrapperComponent, but no scriptFiles array (and no binding). WrapperComponent is smart enough to handle this OK. Ok. Now imagine we are seeing Main component. Click on a link that shows SimpleComponent. SimpleComponent appears OK. Now change the language while SampleComponent is on the browser. A new instance of SimpleComponent appears in the chosen language. Now, click on a link that returns to Main component. So far, so good. This tells me that we can enter and leave the Main component with no problems. The problem happens on Main component, and any other one that has the "listOfFiles" wrapperComponent binding binded to a component key. When I change the language, I get this: com.webobjects.foundation.NSKeyValueCoding$UnknownKeyException: [; 0.17 = ; } >; } >; 0.23 = ; 0.23.2.1.3 = ; 0.23.2.1.5 = ; 0.23.2.1.7 = ; } >; } >; } >; 0.29.1.1 = ; } > takeValueForKey()]: attempt to assign value to unknown key: 'scriptFiles'. This WOComponent does not have an instance variable of the name scriptFiles or _scriptFiles, nor a method of the name setScriptFiles or _setScriptFiles OK... for some reason, WO tries to set the scriptVars key. My question is WHY!? There's absolutely no reason that I can see that forces WO to do this. This apparently only happens when leaving a component and entering another instance of that component class. But why!? Of course, the work-around is easy, ant it works: just putting a setScriptFiles method that does nothing is enough of a hack to make this work. But that's not good enough. Why does this happen? Any tips? In a nutshell, synchronizesVariablesWithBindings returns true, so your parent and child components synchronize there variables and bindings. :) Make your nested component non-synchronizing by overriding the method synchronizesVariablesWithBindings and return false. Then implement the valueForBinding method as you need to pull the binding values into the nested component. HTH. - shaun ___ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

She is pretty new to America. She wanted to walk on the streets alone to look around the city (Which is out of question after seeing this thread). Do I need to consider changing the hotel?. Any suggestions There's absolutely no reason that your wife can't walk freely around the city, provided she follows the usual rules that any newcomer should follow anywhere. Check with the natives where and if it is safe; don't look like an obvious tourist; don't flash money/valuables around in public.

I need to do some further testing to see if Im grabbing more objects from the DB ( as you said "lots of single row queries.") or its because of the actual page itself.

This is just my opinion and it may not be "correct" as far as some of
the more experienced developers will say. So take this however you like.
Ignore it completely if it doesn't sit well with you. Or shoot it down
if you would prefer. :)
Personally I think this is being way too anal about MVC for no really
good reason(that I can see anyway). I think its probably a mistake to
take a hard line and say that WOComponent subclasses are only the
controller. IMO it's valid to say that a WOComponent is, or can be
View. After all, a WOComponent+wod+html together are responsible for
generating the view - look at the api of WOComponent and you will see
this is the case. eg) appendToResponse. on the other hand WOComponent is
also controller thanks to pageWithName.
I think that stateless components also provide a good argument to say
that WOComponent should not be relegated to Controller only. I mean,
they don't have to do anything but view. Not to mention you can create
WOComponents that have no HTML at all and generate the entire response
in code. Probably not the best idea but it is possible regardless.
I think the really important point in WO is to always ensure that
WOComponent subclasses are never Model(bussines logic) in MVC. You will
be very pissed off when you have to move logic from a WOComponent to
reuse elsewhere. Copying the logic is not acceptable. Putting the logic
in a superclass is not really acceptable unless it passes the is-a
test.
>From experience, I can say it totally sucks when you have logic in one
component that you want to invoke but you don't want to call
pageWithName as it screws with the context(the context returned from
context() method of WOComponent that is).
In the past I have had trouble figuring out if WOComponent is C or V in
MVC. I now think it can be either or both. EG) some WOComponents can be
built as View components only while others can be more of a Controller
type of component and some are a mixture.
AFAIK The whole point of MVC is reuse and clean separation to support
reuse. How taking the class name for a css style out of the WOComponent
will allow for a more reuse I don't see. If you are building a nested
reusable component you simply provide a binding for the class name and
the parent component or some other object supplies the class name at
runtime or you can just stick it in the wod if you know it wont change.

Sure, but this would meet your MVC requirement. Although it does have
some pretty serious drawbacks.

I don't think its a limitation of WO but rather one of the strict(and
possibly misguided) approach taken as far as MVC is concerned.
You have already listed an alternate option above. You will just end up
with a mess in your WOComponent of nested conditionals. IMO its much
better to relax your rules about MVC and put the class name in the
component; after all you have stated that the logic will be there!
If you want to change the style change the css - no big deal right?
However there is another option that I can think of, and that is set the
styles using Javascript.
Your script might look like:
//This would be an integer returned by the class logic or a string or
// whatever identifier you want to use.
var classToUse = ''
//invoke this somewhere to set the class.
function setClass(){
var class = (classToUse == 1) ? "open" : "closed";
document.getElementById("myList").class=class; //what

Or, use composition rather than sticking all the functional code inside
the direct action method or class. eg)
public WOActionResults myAction(){
String a,b,c;
a = formValueForKey("a");
b = formValueForKey("b");
c = formValueForKey("c");
LogicObject lo = LogicObject.newInstance(a,b,c);
lo.myAction();
CustomPage p = (CustomPate) lo.ok() ?
pageWithName("CustomPageOK") :
pageWithName("CustomPageNotOk");
p.setLogicObject(lo);
return (WOActionResults)p;
}
Now you simply test the LogicObject's functionality not the DA.

I just thought I'd point out that if your using Java 5.0 that you can do
the following:
Boolean b = new Boolean(true);
if (b){
// its true
}else{
// its false
}
Yay autoboxing!
