[10:25:29 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> athena: do you know if your pager refresh function applies the existing sort-selection?
[10:25:46 CST(-0600)] <athena> hm that's a good question
[10:25:51 CST(-0600)] <athena> it may reset it, not sure
[10:25:55 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[10:26:00 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'll do some debugging
[10:43:19 CST(-0600)] <athena> EricDalquist: you use hsql for development, right?
[10:43:21 CST(-0600)]

[10:43:24 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[11:54:36 CST(-0600)] <athena> just got jQM working with our no-conflict, multi-download strategy!
[11:54:37 CST(-0600)] <athena> wooo
[11:56:14 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yay
[11:56:33 CST(-0600)] <athena> yeah
[11:56:36 CST(-0600)] <athena> there are some quirks
[11:56:47 CST(-0600)] <athena> but think we can come up with something workable
[15:02:46 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> athena: I'm really wondering if we should just merge the resource-server and resource-aggregator libs
[15:02:53 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm working on a portlet and want both of them
[15:02:57 CST(-0600)] <athena> yeah
[15:02:59 CST(-0600)] <athena> i know
[15:03:03 CST(-0600)] <athena> i've kind of thought the same thing
[15:03:11 CST(-0600)] <athena> i'd be all for that
[15:04:03 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[15:04:11 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I might look at doing that then
[15:04:52 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> think I should just move it all into "resource-server" and we just EOL the resource-aggregator project?
[15:05:50 CST(-0600)] <athena> yeah
[15:05:53 CST(-0600)] <athena> i think that's a great idea
[15:06:01 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[15:06:11 CST(-0600)] <athena> maybe we can also add some JSP-specific aggregation stuff
[15:06:23 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm going to be writing a jsp tag to do the aggregated js/css output too
[15:06:25 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> heh
[15:06:26 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[15:06:48 CST(-0600)] <athena> hurray!
[15:06:59 CST(-0600)] <athena> i'll definitely look forward to using that
[15:07:04 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[15:07:23 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it will be nice to get portlets using the skin.xml approach as well
[15:07:25 CST(-0600)] <athena> yeah
[15:07:29 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> that really seems to be working nicely for the portal
[15:07:33 CST(-0600)] <athena> yeah i think so
[15:07:40 CST(-0600)] <athena> the aggregation toggling is really nice
[15:07:55 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and since the system property is JVM wide it should 'just work' for portlets too
[15:08:10 CST(-0600)] <athena> yeah
[15:09:04 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> now lets see if I can move files around in SVN without nuking history
[15:09:13 CST(-0600)] <athena>
[15:09:20 CST(-0600)] <athena> i've found eclipse's move operation is pretty bad about that
[15:09:28 CST(-0600)] <athena> but command-line seems to work ok
[15:09:37 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[15:09:45 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I always use the CLI when I have stuff like this to do
[15:09:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> eclipse always seems to break things
[15:09:56 CST(-0600)] <athena> yeah
[15:25:17 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> also we can now make the aggregator tags resource server aware
[15:25:21 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> which will be good for portlets
[15:26:46 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> though the trunk of the resource server may be broken for a day or so while I get this merge sorted out
[15:44:04 CST(-0600)] <athena> that's ok
[16:08:55 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> blarg
[16:09:01 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> the aggregator code is all jdk1.6
[16:09:09 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> but the resource server is 1.5
[16:12:01 CST(-0600)] <athena> can we make it 1.6?
[16:12:11 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> that would make my life easier
[16:12:23 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it would require any project that uses it to require jdk1.56
[16:12:26 CST(-0600)] <athena> yeah
[16:12:27 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> 1.6
[16:12:32 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I'm fine with that
[16:12:32 CST(-0600)] <athena> when did uportal start using it?
[16:12:33 CST(-0600)] <athena> 3.1?
[16:12:35 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> 3.2
[16:12:36 CST(-0600)] <athena> i am too
[16:12:38 CST(-0600)] <athena> oh ok
[16:12:44 CST(-0600)] <athena> well 3.2 requires 1.6, right?
[16:12:54 CST(-0600)] <athena> and most of our portlets do as wel
[16:13:17 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yup
[16:13:18 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ok
[16:13:20 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> sounds good then
[16:13:58 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> especially since the aggregator uses a Deque
[16:14:10 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and I don't want to try and figure out how to re-implement that off of just a List
[16:14:27 CST(-0600)] <athena> yeah
[16:14:32 CST(-0600)] <athena> sounds reasonable to me
[16:46:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> wish we could tell the yuicompressor plugin to strip comments
[16:47:02 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> not sure those really need to be kept in a minified js file'
[16:47:29 CST(-0600)] <athena> it doesn't strip comments right now?
[16:47:41 CST(-0600)] <athena> i thought it did/
[16:47:44 CST(-0600)] <athena> ?
[16:49:02 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> doesn't appear to
[16:49:10 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> crap I need to get going ...
[16:49:16 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well I'll finish up the merging on Monday
[16:49:22 CST(-0600)] <athena> aright
[16:49:22 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> going to try and get more uportal work done this weekend
[16:49:24 CST(-0600)] <athena> have a good weekend!
[16:49:30 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> you too
[16:49:32 CST(-0600)] <athena> i gotta get ready for a trip out to phx
