I've started a new task list on SF for a 1.2.1 release. There are a
handful of patches that need to be applied.
Jeff, some months ago didn't we receive a patch for Dutch and you
mentioned on the list that it should be applied to 1.2?

I have a working version for Task "Reimplement Backlinks page" https://sourceforge.net/pm/task.php?func=detailtask&project_task_id=25971&group_id=6121&group_project_id=7691 and some more, but my current problems are: 1) no time until early september. 2) interwiki links are falsely stored in the backlink table. 3) I have too much additional features in my search.php to extract this one. esp. I extracted the output code for generated lists of all kinds (search, index, wanted, orphan, ...) into a seperate list.php to support rows, limit, offset, accelerators, date and sorted by. however the advanced search features (regex, and/or, ...) would be nice to have. I'll do that in september. Steve Wainstead schrieb: > I've started a new task list on SF for a 1.2.1 release.

I applied the patches to the devel branch, but did not back-port them to the stable version. At the time, we had this discussion: On 31 May, 2001 Jan Nieuwenhuizen wrote: >Jeff Dairiki <da...@da...> writes: >> (I have not back-ported any of your translation fixes to the stable >> branch of the CVS --- should they be?) > >Nah, not worth the effort imo. Given that at present, a real beta release of the devel branch still seems a ways away, maybe it is worth reconsidering... Jan, are you interested in taking a look at it? (If not I can try, I suppose --- but I don't speak Dutch.) Jeff |

(BTW Reini: is there a reason it's marked 'deleted' now? Should I undelete it?) I've been planning on doing this (though you're welcome to, Reini) in the devel branch, but have been waiting until the database API stabilizes. On the other hand, I would like to fix this (now) in the stable branch. (I know there's a "feature freeze", but I consider this more of a bug fix, than a new feature.) If you only use WikiWords for page names the current scheme works okay, but currently the "backlinks" search for [names like this] will hit every page containing the words "names", "like" and "this" anywhere within the entire page text. Fixing this will require non-trivial changes to each of the database backends, so I can also understand arguments that it should be left as it is, for now. If there are no objections, however, I will work on this over the next few days. Another issue which is probably worth dealing with is the case insensitivity in page names bug. http://sf.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=233898&group_id=6121&at id=106121 Fixing this properly, however, would require schema changes. Is this acceptable? Jeff |

That's one way to fix the problem. I don't really like it though.
(I don't think it's made it's way into the CVS yet either.)
I'd rather fix it so that pages with different capitalization are truly
different pages. ('PageOne' and 'PagEone', I think should be different
pages,
with different content.) (I think we've had this discussion before:
http://phpwiki.sf.net/phpwiki/index.php?case%20insensitive%20bRaCkeT%20
links
).
This has been fixed for the mysql backend by David Marsh --- notes about
what he did are on the SF bug report page:
http://sf.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=233898&group_id=6121&at
id=106121
His fixes haven't made it into the CVS (either branch) yet though...
... and they do require a schema change.
Cheers,
Jeff

Okay, well, I just did it.
There is now a real back-link page in the _stable_ branch
('release-1_2-branch').
It "should" be working with all the database back-ends. I've
more-or-less tested the mysql, dba, dbm, and flat-file back-ends.
The msql and pgsql back-ends are, at this point, completely untested.
(And therefore, likely to be broken.) If any of you are able to test
either, please do!
I would still like to fix the page name case-sensitivity issues, but
would first like to hear from Steve and others how kosher you think
schema changes are within 1.2.x.

In two weeks I will be back in Manhattan, where my other Linux box is with
msql... I will test it then. (Don't feel like installing it yet again and
recompiling && etc.)

How drastic?

I've really only thought about the MySQL backend so far. There, columns which hold pagenames need to have the 'binary' attribute set (their type needs to be changed from 'VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL' to 'VARCHAR(100) BINARY NOT NULL'.) I think this can be done without necessitating a full dump/restore of the database. If someone "forgot" to do this when they upgraded to 1.2.1, I think the worst that would happen is that his/her wiki would continue to have case insensitivity bugs. I don't think the dbm/dba backend is broken, so no problems there. The flat-file back-end has problems on Win32 systems, because the stupid filesystem is not case sensitive. The best fix I can think of for that is to urlencode() the capital letters in the page names when forming file names. (This would probably require a full dump/restore of the database when upgrading.) I'm no expert on pgsql and msql --- they may not even be broken. If they are, I suspect they could be fixed in a manner similar to the mysql back-end. Jeff |

Sounds fine... as long as it doesn't require hours of work on your part,
I'd say go ahead.

It's so painful to support Windows systems regardless of type. I'm
inclined to say "You're on your own" if you run it on Windows... sigh. Of
course it's not fair to them. A lot of people have no choice in the
matter.

I haven't set up 1.2 on pgsql in a while and I'm having problems vis. the
pgsql setup. Hopefully I'll work it out tomorrow or Sunday. Gotta go scuba
diving early tomorrow morning.
