Re: [Dynapi-Dev] browser history and RPC

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Yes SODA has the same problem.

Normally when I'm writing dynamic apps I prevent the
users from using the browsers back button. IMO it's
not good to have the back button active when you're
doing dynamic stuff.

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Problems in inheritence (General and PanelBar)

[Peter R. <ant...@gm...>]

... sorry for the repost - my mua always insists to send with my default
emailadress as sender ... :(

Hi Daniel and all,

here's a fixed version of the panelbar.js and the updated example.
You'll find the following changes in there:

- Added proper prototype-command:
    var p = dynapi.setPrototype('PanelBar','DynLayer');

- Removed csscontent and cssmenu from constructor

- Moved most of the init-code to the PreCreate-event. That way there
    is no problem with subclassing anymore.

- Added the possibility to construct a PanelBar with pure HTML
    instead of layers, i.e. var pb = new PanelBar ('My Menu', 'My Content',...)
    creates a proper PanelBar. You can still construct the PanelBar
    with layers of course!

- Added getContentLayer and getMenuLayer

I discussed the whole panelbar-stuff with Daniel yesterday. We decided to
build a window-widget with the following functionality:

- Menubar, Content, Status-Bar (optional)
- Dragable
- Minimize, Maximize, Resize, Close with each action firing an event
    (especially close might be important ;)
- Based on ViewPane or something similar (scrolling mechanism)
- When using multiple windows add a proper focus handling

A widget of that kind I need anyway for my current project so I think
it is best to develop it as a basic and reusable widget for the dynapi.
And Daniel already comited to help or better start writing that thing ;)

Has anyone already done such thing (a window-widget)?
Any other suggestions, comments etc. are welcome, of course!

Regards,
Peter

..: If wanted I can send diffs of course...

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] XML Class in DynAPI?

[Leif W <war...@us...>]

Looking through some old emails, saw this.  Sounds like an interesting idea
(bring some XML support to older browsers through the API, and provide a
uniform interface across browsers).  Wonder why noone replied.  :-)  Can you
elaborate on a scenario or example where this would be used to handle
things?  I'm not too familiar with XML and how it could be applied here.

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Mail problem...

[Leif W <war...@us...>]

Motivation.

To switch to quality mail servers, like sendmail, qmail, or exim.  :-)

Also, noticed Lookout Express sometimes prepends a message with a random
length snippet of what was in my clipboard.  (!)  The cable company's mail
server at charter.net (Communigate pro) is sluggish at times, randomly drops
messages silently, delivers hours or days later (on rare occasions).  It's
motivation enough for me to decide to violate their user agreement for the
Nth degree by setting up yet another piece of server software, my own mail
server running exim.  :-)  It's on the TODO list now.

Leif

P.S. TODO list (no particular order):

1) Encode some WAV files to MP3 of new CDs I just received.
2) Miscellaneous turtle aquarium errands and fiddlings
3) Install and configure cygwin environment
4) Compile Mozilla Firebird from source, with DOM Inspector support
5) Finish working on a Mozilla Firebird Skin (need DOM Inspector)
6) Finish IOElement SODA PHP
7) Setup exim
8) Wash that sink full of dirty dishes.  :-)
9) Clean space on hard drives

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Mail problem...

[Doug M. <do...@cr...>]

speaking of mail problems..

Frag.
anyways, the text was:

May admins around the world (hundreds to thousands) are racing to
upgrade and reconfigure their email servers (outgoing) to combat spam and
email worms.

Of course, this will lead to many miss-configurations and some bad Software
choices
(who the hell uses exchange when they can avoid it!?!?)

In my case, the outgoing relay server is refusing to send some of my
messages (error 550 not allowed to send to that address)

Also I have seen some of my messages "stutter" or show up multiple times in
a persons inbox.. (or this list)

Add to that the Outlook Express 6 is sending some of my emails
sans-content..

I am having a hell of a great time.. you guys?
:-)

Never mind that the average download speed on any connection in Ottawa has
dropped of the last month or so..

God-damned morons who have nothing better to do than write evil
software that damages the one thing that likely brings their pathetic lives
joy : the Internet

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Problems in inheritence (General and PanelBar)

[Peter R. <ant...@gm...>]

Hi Daniel,

> Hi Peter, I am the one to blame :)

to blame for these cool tiny widget ;) Whould it be acceptable if I
rewrite the PanelBar a bit so that it follows the dynapi-class-paradigm
and is "subclassable" (does this word really exist? ;) ?

> Have had very little time right now, but I will try to fix the panel
> bar, would also be great to see what you have done with it.

I am writing something like a windowmanager (for mdi-environments).
I hope I can write it "abstract" enough so I can share it - the current
development is highly directed towards our current (special) needs though.

Peter

Ahhh, that makes everything clear! Works now. Will this be changed in

This does not solve the problem I have with the constructor. I saw a
discussion about the PanelBar before where someone suggested to move
stuff out of the constructor. Will there be any fix to the PanelBar
regarding this "issue" (not able to subclass it)?

Keep up the good work,

[Dynapi-Dev] browser history and RPC

[Jacob L. <jy...@mo...>]

I'm trying to learn how to write a SODA server side for Tcl, and in the
process got JSRS up and running (http://www.ashleyit.com/rs/jsrs/test.htm)
with tclhttpd as a smaller milestone. You can see my meager effort here:
http://mod3.net:8888/jsrs22/test.htm

I noticed that even though I use location.replace() (where possible) it
still fills my browser history, the back button gets a very long history
very quickly.. :) I noticed this on IE6 and NN7 on WinXP, others saw
similar behavior with browsers on MacOSX and Linux.

Question: does the dynapi SODA have this problem, and if not, how did you
avoid it?

Other than that, I'm happy to report that I am making slow progress
creating a Tcl equivalent of the server side for SODA, using the PHP code
as a template.

along very nicely and I should have them ready within
a few weeks :)

They're much faster now thanks to css borders and the
border manager, etc.

Ahhh, that makes everything clear! Works now. Will this be changed
in the CVS too?

This does not solve the problem I have with the constructor. I saw
a discussion about the PanelBar before where someone suggested to
move stuff out of the constructor. Will there be any fix to the
PanelBar regarding this "issue" (not able to subclass it)?

Keep up the good work,

Peter

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Problems in inheritence (General and PanelBar)

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

The problem PanelBar and isClass() is due to fact that
the prototype was not created using
dynapi.setPrototype()

Instead of var p = PanelBar.prototype = new DynLayer
it should be var p =
dynapi.setPrototype('PanelBar','DynLayer');

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Object / Widget documentation

[Leif W <war...@us...>]

Think this sounds like a good idea.  As a milestone marker, we could keep a
percentage of documentation completed on the main page.  Could have some
color code, red - no docs, yellow, partially documented, green, fully
documented.  Could have something like a treview of the API, showing each
node in the color based on it's children.  You look at the top node (it's
yellow most of the time), so you know something somewhere needs to be
documented.  Expanding the node, you see one (or more) nodes in green and
yellow or red states.  Expanding a yellow node, you find a list of items all
green except one item is yellow, so you finish documenting that and make it
green, then its parent becomes green, and you have done some work.  :-)

[Dynapi-Dev] Problems in inheritence (General and PanelBar)

[Peter R. <ant...@gm...>]

Hi,

I have two problems here. First I cannot subclass PanelBar until I 
comment out some stuff in the constructor like that:

function PanelBar(lyrmnu,lyrcnt,mnuheight,x,y,w,h,mnucss,cntcss,minimized) {

   this.DynLayer = DynLayer;
   this.DynLayer(null,x,y,w,h,null);

   if (lyrmnu) {	
     this.x = x;
     ...
     this.menu.setHTML(this._mnuhtml.replace('{@min}',this._mnuhtmlmax));
   }
		
   this.onPreCreate(PanelBar.PreCreateEvent);
   this.onCreate(PanelBar.CreateEvent);
}
}

Is there any common pattern how to avoid problems with subclassing? Or 
am I doing something totally stupid in trying to subclass PanelBar?

The next problem is that I can't enable the dragevents on my subclass of 
PanelBar until I change dragevent.js line 225 (enableDragEvents):

if(lyr.isClass('DynLayer')) lyr.addEventListener(DragEvent.lyrListener);

to

lyr.addEventListener(DragEvent.lyrListener);

That is bruteforce, I know ;) I just tried to figure out where the 
problem is. And I found that myPanelBarSubclass.isClass('DynLayer') 
yields false which I consider as wrong - it is a DynLayer since it is a 
subclass of PanelBar which is a subclass of DynLayer! The quickest fix I 
can imagine is to rewrite the isClass-method to tell whether any 
superclass matches the argument. I don't know if this breaks something, 
so I didn't try that yet.

If I am trying to do something totally wrong then please tell me! 
Otherwise I will gladly help "fixing" the issues.

Regards,
Peter

I think the problem is with your mail server or mail

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Anchor

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Be careful with window.onresize! I think dynapi used
this event for window resizing functions.

It's best to use the onresize event listener on
dynapi.document inside of using window.onresize

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] VDE-0.1rc3 release

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

How about using special extensions to represent the
file types?

Visual DynAPI Project: *.vdp (or .vdf, .vde, etc)
Visual DynAPI Widget: *.vdw (or .vdd, .vdh, .vdc, etc)

The .vdw could be used to store the widget's
properties, functions, etc. I guess wou could use SODA
to easily create such a file, agree? IMO it's very
easy and very expandable:

widgetInfo ={
   name:'Widget Name',
   version: '1.0.0',
   description:'Widget\'s Description',
   libraryname:'dynapi.gui.MyWidget',
   functions: {
      myname1:['arguments','description'],
      myname2:['arguments','description']
   },
   properties: {
      myproperty1:'description',
      myproperty2:'description',
   },
   events:{
      myevent1:['arugments','description'],
   }
}

This js object can then be converted into a SODA
format and then saved into a .vdw file. The vde can
then be used to read the .vdw files to get information
about the widget.

The vde might have to include something like a
widgets.js file and widgets/ folder which stores the
names of the .vdw files

widgets/mywidget.vdw
widgets/widgets.js 

inside widgets.js we could have the following:

vde.RegisterWidget('MyWidget','mywidget.vdw');
vde.RegisterWidget('MyWidget2','mywidget2.vdw');

The vde could then have a section that list all
registered widgets. From this list the user can then
select the widgets that that would like to appear
inside the vde's toolbox (or widget) box. It's at this
point that the .vdw files are loaded and the
information stored inside the vde.

With this method the vde could list any number of
available widgets but only the ones used inside the
toolbox are loaded.

The toolbox could be placed at the left-hand side of
the vde to display the selected widgets. The user
could then click on the widget and then click and drag
an area inside the document to create the widget. At
this point the widget is created and the cover layer
is then added to it to prevent events from been
triggered

That's true. Widgets should not be active untill it's
previewed. I think we can simple convert any wiget
into an object by adding a cover layer to the widget
inside the vde:

var cover = new DynLayer(null,0,0,0,0)
cover.setAnchor({top:0,right:0,bottom:0,left:0});
cover.addEventListener({
  // here we add mouse events that prevents 
  // events from reaching the widget
  onclick : functione(e){
     e.preventBubble();
  },
  onmouseover : functione(e){
     e.preventBubble();
  },
  onmouseout : functione(e){
     e.preventBubble();
  }
  // add other mouseevents, etc
})

// add cover to widget
widget.addChild(cover);

Using this method widgets will now act as objects
within the vde.

RE: [Dynapi-Dev] VDE-0.1rc3 release

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

I think once you click on the layer inside the vde it
should remain in select/edit mode so the use can know
which layer is currently selected. Clicking and
holding for 400ms does the same think but it just take
a longer time :) 

In most ide (or visual ide) once you click on the
object it remains selected so you can know which
object is selected.

[Dynapi-Dev] Object / Widget documentation

[Daniel T. <de...@ti...>]

Hi!

I was thinking of a way to keep the widget and object documentation up
to date better, that is that I could set up a database and make a
webadmin to that so we could update the docs smoothly and have a better
overview of what objects/widgets that needs to be documented, and what
is missing and so on.

Then for release we just make html of all the info stored in the db and
add it to cvs. What do you all think of this?

What type of data we need (fill in on this)
Object Name or Widget Name
Constructor with comments
Properties with comments
Functions with comments
Private/public Methods with comments
Examples

We could also make a comment to each file so we all know what that file
does.

What do you think?

Regards
Daniel

Shure I will.

Ok sounds fine. Does anybody know of a good mac 0S9 CVS app ?

I have not made any major changes to the dynapi, there are some minor
changes that I think should be there. I will list all my changes later.

Yes that has been fixed will be in rc4
