My current time being spent on Jetspeed may be going away soon (gotta love when projects get put on the back-burner). If I can find time, I would like to hook Jetspeed up to JProbe and see what it is up to. The 80/20 rule seems to apply quite well to performance tweaking on this stuff. Don't

Can anyone explain why the cache key creation is a static member? Looking at the code, I can see that it was originally an instance method and was later changed. This doesn't make a lot of sense to me to be honest. This would be like defining static equals() and hashcode() methods. There are

Anonymous user customization

2002-05-01 Thread Setera, Craig
Hi, I was under the impression that the CVS version of code had the ability to customize the anonymous user without the copy another user's PSML trick. Is that true? If so, I can't seem to find it. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Craig PS - Thanks for fixing the 3 column

RE: Anonymous user customization

I believe the recommended way is to create a new user, customize that user and then copy it over to the anonymous directory. Next week I will be working on a new feature for the admin user to customize any psml resource in the system, including anonymous. This should be fairly easy, only
