[09:19:12 EST(-0500)] <athena> hey EricDalquist - i wanted to get your opinion on a couple of tickets today
[09:19:17 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ok
[09:25:01 EST(-0500)] <athena> sorry,w as digging through tickets (smile)
[09:25:11 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> no problem
[09:25:14 EST(-0500)] <athena> so one was the select issue in IE in 3.1
[09:25:36 EST(-0500)] <athena> i think we talked before about maybe having to change the filter configuration when upgrading the resource server?
[09:26:05 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ah yeah
[09:26:14 EST(-0500)] <athena> i'm not really sure what changes need to be made, or if we want to just only upgrade the webapp itself
[09:26:19 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so we would just need to make sure that is documented in the release notes
[09:26:46 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I think it was some minor changes in web.xml and the related spring context that has the actual filter bean
[09:26:46 EST(-0500)] <athena> that which is documented?
[09:26:54 EST(-0500)] <athena> ok
[09:27:00 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> the changes when making the RS upgrade
[09:27:08 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> to the filter
[09:27:12 EST(-0500)] <athena> well, we want to actually do it in the 3.1 branch, no?
[09:27:24 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> right
[09:28:07 EST(-0500)] <athena> so documenting sounds good, but we probably actually need to make some filter adjustments in uportal
[09:28:36 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> right
[09:28:46 EST(-0500)] <athena> anyway, i don't think matt's going to get to that ticket, so wanted to make sure it was covered for the 3.1 release
[09:29:00 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so what I was trying to say is that when we make the changes in web.xml we need to also make sure it is documented for people
[09:29:09 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> since if they have local changes they need to make sure they merge them in correctly
[09:29:10 EST(-0500)] <athena> ah, yes, that sounds good (smile)
[09:29:12 EST(-0500)] <athena> right
[09:31:09 EST(-0500)] <athena> speaking of the rs server, i need to add the cookie plugin
[09:31:36 EST(-0500)] <athena> so the other thing was the delegated permissions stuff for lifecycle states
[09:31:36 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> jquery cookie plugin?
[09:31:38 EST(-0500)] <athena> yeah
[09:31:53 EST(-0500)] <athena> i refactored the search js file so we don't need our own cookie manager
[09:32:06 EST(-0500)] <athena> and made it so that it can be merged in w/ the main uportal aggregation
[09:32:19 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> cool
[09:32:26 EST(-0500)] <athena> yeah, should help a little
[09:32:46 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[09:33:06 EST(-0500)] <athena> so it looks like our permissions now are broken into manage and publish
[09:33:26 EST(-0500)] <athena> where manage can be set on channels and categories, but publish is just framework-wide
[09:33:55 EST(-0500)] <athena> i'm not 100% sure of the intent, but it looks like probably publish controls who can create a channel, and manage controls who can edit it
[09:34:23 EST(-0500)] <athena> i don't know if we still want to have a separate publish permission
[09:34:34 EST(-0500)] <athena> it seems like just having permissions for each step of the lifecycle would be enough
[09:34:53 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I think a permission per step would be fine
[09:36:27 EST(-0500)] <athena> ok
[09:36:43 EST(-0500)] <athena> hopefully i'll be able to get all that cleaned up this week then (smile)
[09:36:49 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> great
[09:36:56 EST(-0500)] * athena 's parents think bedtime is 8pm
[09:37:22 EST(-0500)] <athena> thanks for the input
[09:37:35 EST(-0500)] * michelled (n=michelle@142.150.154.193) has joined ##uportal
[09:37:51 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[09:38:24 EST(-0500)] <athena> have you ever tried to do a bidirectional merge in svnmerge?
[09:38:24 EST(-0500)] <athena> from the docs it sort of looks like such things are possible
[09:38:38 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> maybe
[09:38:43 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> but I don't really remember
[09:39:04 EST(-0500)] <athena> just curious (smile)
[10:05:55 EST(-0500)] * lennard1 (n=sparhk@72.215.204.133) has joined ##uportal
[12:44:13 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ack
[12:44:32 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> compiling uPortal 2.x on a mac is a pita
[12:44:40 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> well 2.5 and earlier
[12:44:50 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> since it uses jdk1.4
[12:47:09 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> wtf apple
[12:47:18 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> in /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions
[12:47:24 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> 2009-08-28 22:44 1.5.0 -> CurrentJDK
[12:47:30 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> 2009-08-28 22:44 CurrentJDK -> 1.6
[12:47:38 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so JDK 1.5 is just 1.6?
[12:48:53 EST(-0500)] <lennard1> (smile)
[12:49:44 EST(-0500)] * lennard1 is not cool guy enough to own an apple. Am happy to see it entails at least a little suffering(smile)
[12:49:53 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yes
[12:50:02 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> apple's version of Java is very frustraiting
[12:50:38 EST(-0500)] <lennard1> thanks for your further comments on permgen. I had something similar in my first draft... but decided it was too long and cut it all out.
[12:50:45 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> no problem
[12:50:56 EST(-0500)] <lennard1> you added the additional info and a nice explanation(smile)
[12:51:11 EST(-0500)] <lennard1> those flags are not a cure all though(sad)
[12:52:15 EST(-0500)] <lennard1> especially if you are hot deploying stuff
[12:52:22 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[12:52:44 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> someday I'd like to figure out what causes the uPortal classloader leaks
[12:52:54 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> thats a lot of time and effort though
