[11:53:49 EDT(-0400)] <fmeyer> when I reach the cas-server-webpage it aways asks for a new login, even after a just logged in
[11:54:18 EDT(-0400)] <fmeyer> there's any configuration to reuse the same session and redirect to an already logged page ?

[14:50:10 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ARG
[14:50:19 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> jquery's param() function is ANNOYING

[15:47:54 EDT(-0400)] <athena> what's the param function do?
[16:02:05 EDT(-0400)] <athena> EricDalquist: should ChannelCategory be deprecated? are we removing it, or do we just need to rename it?

[16:28:02 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> hi athena
[16:28:08 EDT(-0400)] <athena> hey
[16:28:12 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> what does ChannelCategory do?
[16:28:23 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> oh and params
[16:28:30 EDT(-0400)]

[16:28:32 EDT(-0400)] <athena> it represents the categories
[16:28:35 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> returns
[16:28:39 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> startDate=01/01/2009&endDate=03/03/2010&statsGroups[]=0&statsGroups[]=1&statsGroups[]=2&interval=5
[16:28:50 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> because that is the PHP way for passing arrays of arguments
[16:28:53 EDT(-0400)] <athena> though it seems like maybe that should subclass IGroupEntity or something like that
[16:28:54 EDT(-0400)] <athena> ah
[16:28:57 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> which of course breaks anything other than PHP
[16:29:00 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah
[16:29:07 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and means I have to write my own hash to URL parameters function
[16:29:10 EDT(-0400)] <athena>
[16:29:32 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> having it just be an IGroupEntity would probably make more sense
[16:32:02 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> oh neat ... if I read the docs I can make it do what I want
[16:32:03 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> $.param(args, true);
[16:32:12 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> that apparently does the 'old style' encoding
[16:46:35 EDT(-0400)] <athena> EricDalquist: yeah, just rolling it into IGroupEntity might make a lot of sense
[16:46:59 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i'm having some weird problem where when my new web flow ends it just displays a blank screen instead of going back to the beginning
[16:47:13 EDT(-0400)] <athena> there's isn't any kind of mapping where we define where it goes when it ends, is there?
[16:47:30 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah end-state
[16:47:36 EDT(-0400)] <athena> hmm
[16:47:39 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> though only sub-flows should ever have an end state
[16:47:45 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah
[16:47:48 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> top level flows shouldn't ever 'end'
[16:47:52 EDT(-0400)] <athena> oh, hm
[16:48:06 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> unless you're exiting the flow and just going back to a plain JSP view
[16:48:18 EDT(-0400)] <athena> the portlet manager top-level flow does have an end state
[16:48:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> do you ever actually get to it?
[16:48:47 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i think so
[16:48:52 EDT(-0400)] <athena> seems to work ok
[16:49:56 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> weird
[16:50:05 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I don't think the swapper portlets have end states
[16:50:15 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> when you're done you just end up back at the initial view
[17:05:27 EDT(-0400)] <athena> that probably makes sense
[17:05:33 EDT(-0400)] <athena> wonder how the portlet one manages to work
[17:06:14 EDT(-0400)] <athena> pretty close to havign something that actually edits groups though
[17:06:23 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> sweet
[17:08:53 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah
[17:09:04 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> just got some basic tab-view reports up now too: https://my-reports.doit.wisc.edu/StatsReporter
[17:09:09 EDT(-0400)] <athena> hoping to add create group functionality tomorrow
[17:09:10 EDT(-0400)] <athena> oh nice!
[17:09:16 EDT(-0400)] <athena> that's really fantastic
[17:09:30 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> spent the last day refactoring that code
[17:09:40 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> should be ready to dump into the jasig svn repo soon
[17:09:46 EDT(-0400)] <athena> awesome
[17:09:52 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i think that'll be a huge win
[17:10:04 EDT(-0400)] <athena> aright, i think i'm heading outside
[17:10:38 EDT(-0400)] <athena> talk to you tomorrow
