Jakub Might it be better just to use standard - i.e. 8 character - tab widths? I think that's what most of the source is using now, and a quick grep finds tabs in 275 of the 378 files in APC. - Mitra At 11:16 AM +0100 17/1/03, Jakub Ad=E1mek wrote: >Please don't use tabs in any sources nor in the CHANGES file.

I'm doing some work on the flexible Ids that we discussed. Looking at view.php3, it is very strange in the way it Counts hits - where parameters are passed with cmd[]=x-vid-123-456 - it increments the first item in the view, but not the others, this is going to make the first item look much more popular than the others? Maybe this should be a parameter of the view, overridable in the code? So for example as a site editor I might consider that showing a list of headlines didn't count as a "display", but showing the abstracts did? - Mitra -- Mitra Technology Consulting - www.mitra.biz - mi...@mi... 02-6684-8096 or 0414-648-0722 Life is a Mystery to be Lived, not a Problem to be Solved |

Please don't use tabs in any sources nor in the CHANGES file. I have just found a misformed text in CHANGES due to another tab width than I am using. Set "insert Tabs as spaces" and "indent by using spaces" or similar options in your editors. The text are than much better to share. And I repeat: always use \n Unix line ends (this means you cannot use Notepad to edit the files in Windows), CVS can't handle the difference between \n and \r\n and hopefully now all files are with \n only.

The regular expression for not empty field is '.+', so
{switch({text...........8}).+:{text...........8}:none}=20
should work.

What you are testing below should I think match anything that
contains at least one alpha-numeric character (unless implemented
strangely in which cae it would matche anything with EXACTLY one
character).
It would help with looking at this bug if you
1: Make sure you are running the latest CVS version, since there has
been work with string expansion, though not specifically on "switch".
2: Set up a slice with two items, the first working - i.e. no
parenthesis, the second with parenthesis. Then run the view with
"debug=1" in the URL, so that we can see detailed of what exactly is
getting expanded into what - and how this changes between good and
bad results.

Honza, Jakub I have checked in everything I've got complete, but .... I'm actively debugging and developing at the moment. What is the best way to stay integrated with the changes to string handling. Most of my changes are pretty local, but I'd like to do something with that id change, and that would involve changing things in a number of files. Since we are on opposite time zones, it might be fine if we are all carefull to do a "cvs update" each day before editing, then CVS should handle most of the collisions ok. I am not familiar with how to use the CVS branches. A few pointers would be useful if I need to work with them. - Mitra -- Mitra Technology Consulting - www.mitra.biz - mi...@mi... 02-6684-8096 or 0414-648-0722 Life is a Mystery to be Lived, not a Problem to be Solved |

I've updated site.php3, added some functions to support shorter more
functional site files,
specifically
01/16/02 - added functions to module/site/site.php3 for site_* files (mitra)
-- ModW_id2item - convert id to item enabling aliases etc
-- ModW_arr2str - convert array back to string
-- ModW_str2arr - convert apc= parameter string to array
-- pass apc_state[item] on to unaliasing
id2item is useful in that if your site parameters contain a single
item id (a common case) you can setup
$apc_state[item] = id2item($i,true);
and then use expansion like {headline........} or {_#HEADLINE}
The arr2str and str2arr are to provide simple conversion between a
string parameter and the apc_state format of separated variables.

Hi,
I had two problems with the image uploads in latest CVS
1) Calls GD function imagetypes() even if GD isn't installed
Fix:

2) Echoes some debug ? info which causes
Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at /var/www/apc-aa/include/itemfunc.php3:830) in /v

So should we have a generic function that takes an itemid, reads the
aliases from the slice's info, and then the content from the db and
then creates an item?
That function itself is easy, but needs two functions to make it work i.e.
$aliases =3D slice_aliases($sliceid);
$content =3D read_content_from_db($itemid);
new $item("","",$aliases,"","");
$item->columns =3D read_content_from_db($itemid);
I don't think the format string is needed? Since we are going to be
expanding a view.
The two functions I'm using above - i.e. slice_aliases($sliceid) and
read_content_from_db($itemid) both seem to be missing, although they
both seem pretty generic to me.

Yes, it is 16 character long - exactly. When we do it, we don't think users will ever write the field ids. Now they do. The id consist of field type, counter and dots between. We use the id to get type of field on some (not so many) spots - mainly for 'category' field. I think we should not change the field ids - we rather have to think about some alternative shortcuts (like headline.......2 =3D headline-2 or such).

It looks like there will be bigger changes in the AA code, so there is a good chance the AA code will be not so stable for some time. Before we commit such changes to CVS I want to tag current version as stable apc-aa version 2.4.1. If anybody have any changes which should be part of the 2.4.1, please commit the changes (today or tomorrow). FYI - planed changes after the release includes: 1) switching language environment to mgettext 2) new polls module 3) alerts improvements 4) user management improvement 5) converting ItemManager to new - generalized object implementation with improved searching, which will be used also for related items and discussion administration 6) new links module (Yahoo like link manager (see ekolink.cz)) 7) maybe some fulltext search improvements 8) maybe feeding filtering 9) ... add your planed changes, please Honza On =DAt, 2003-01-14 at 12:12, Jakub Adamek wrote: > Hello, coders, >=20 > I would like to change all the AA code to mgettext.

Hello, coders, I would like to change all the AA code to mgettext. If you are working on some code containing language constants, there would possibly be some CVS conflicts, so please commit everything you can. Honza wants to make some versioning before this is done, he will write about it. I will also document the mgettex module and create a web interface to use it. Jakub |

Sounds great! I also saw it as a problem that we have all these different types of ID's. What is the reason for this, is it historical? Shouldn't just short ID's be enough? Or do we need long ID's for portability and feeding between databases? I suppose the difference between quoted packed and unquoted packed is that any character can appear in a packed ID, even quotes, so you need to addslashes and stripslashes... Maybe we could do something similar with slice ID's (packed, unpacked, quoted, unquoted), and field names (packed, unpacked....)? I also think this is important because it makes the programming interface clearer. During my work for FoEI (I'm just finishing now) we tried using APC-AA as a back-end for storing data, and we used a different template engine, we haven't used the fulltext view, index view, etc. directly. Looking back, I'm not sure that this was a good idea, but in the future I'd like to create a kind of API to APC-AA, so that it could interoperate more easily with external PHP code. This looks like a step in that direction. BTW one more thing: is there a specific reason why field names _must_ be 16 (or however many) characters long? And do they have to have the name.............3 syntax with the dots? It annoys me, because whenever I need to put the headline field into an inline alias, for example, whenever I need to type the field name, I have to copy & paste it from the "fields" section of the admin interface - I cannot just type "headline.........." because I will surely screw up the number of dots. Can't field names be just normal names like "headline", "uploaded_image", or whatever? cheers! Zoltan. |

Ok - so I'm understanding that you think this is a good idea, but
that it needs to have some extended functionality, specifically:
a: handling arrays of ids in different formats.
b: Handling quoted and unquoted packedids (I don't understand the
difference here - maybe another source of errors)
So it seems we have two separate things to decide.
1: External Interface - the series of methods applied to the class
2: Internal implementation.
If we do our job correctly then we can start with a simple internal
implementation which can then be changed to handle the more complex
case of very large arrays of ids WITHOUT changing the external
interface that the rest of the code uses.
I would suggest we need two classes, "id" for handling a single id,
and "idarray" for handling arrays of ids? The interface should
allow for returning results directly from an "idarray" WITHOUT
neccessarily instantiating an "id" for example:
$url .= $myid->longid; to return the long id .
OR
$url .= $myarray->longid(10); to return the long id of the 10th id in the array
but not requiring
$url .= $myarray->id(10)->longid.
Am i on the right direction?

In the site, I have a parameter like --m1234
So I have an id of an item, - (actually a short id, but it doesn't
really matter. )
What I would like to do is in module/site/sites/site_greenpages.php3
create an instance of the class "item" (as in include/item.php3) so
that I can then do my unaliasing in that context. This would mean
that within the site definition I could put
_#HEADLINE or {headline........} or
{alias:related........1:f_v:view.php3?vid=23&cmd[]=x-23-_#this}
etc etc
But the code for creating the instance of the class item is pretty
obscure, it is tightly coupled to the places it is used now, I'm
looking for some guidelines to creating an instance of the class item
starting with an id.

1)
In some cases it is unfortunately needed to distinguish between
packed"ed and packed&unquoted :-(
2)
The 'x' ('y' and 'z' resp.) characters are there not only as the flag of
relation direction. There was some problem with 32 characters long
hexadecimal numbers in array index (a[54637ac9bec645...]) when posted to
PHP from HTML form. I think the problem was, that if the hexadecimal
number begins with digits, PHP thinks the index in decimal so it
produces a[54637] in our example. The begining 'x' tells PHP to
interpret index as string.

I had very simillar idea, only the reason is another. In my thoughts it
was not object for storing single item_id, but it was rather
item_ids_set (foo->short(4) gives you fourth short_id from the set).
Reason:
There are several places where we works with the sets of ids. Very
important function QueryIDs() returns IDs as a numbered array of 32
characters long hexadecimal ids (= unpacked). When we have slice with
50.000 items, the storage of all item ids in the slice exceeds 1MB.
- We already encounter some memory limit problem.
- It is for example impossible to call serialize() on such array (as
PHPLib sessions does to cache the result) - it is too big.
I thought about implementation it as classic C-like array of 4B integers
in one memory block (string), where we would store short_ids:
function short($n) {
return transform4B_2_short( substr($this->heap, $n*4, 4)));
}
Which should be quick and memory efective. The inner implementation is
just detail.

I'm not sure I understand, what you need.
