Not exactly, no.

However... if you and I are editing the same page at the same time, and 
you save it, then I save, I get an error message saying that the page 
changed out from under me.

It's not locking in a checkout/checkin sense, but it does help to 
prevent one user from nuking the changes of another.

The sources are available via the WebMacro SourceForge CVS repository 
if you want to hack away at 'em.  :)

Hi, I have tried to find out all over the site, but I can't get any =
info on
this.

Can somebody tell me if the webmacro wiki supports page locking?

Thanks!

I've updated www.webmacro.org with a new version of Wiki that includes:

    - user administration (for those of us with access)

    - http://www.webmacro.org/IndexPage
              page that shows all pages in the site, grouped by their 
first letter.  This was a suggestion from Christian Aust from many many 
months ago

    - http://www.webmacro.org/PageTree
              page that attempts to show page relationships based on the 
pages another references

    - "Diff to previous version" feature
    	This is somewhat experimental, and probably doesn't work exactly as 
you'd expect, but you can now view side-by-side diffs  of the current 
and previous version of any page!

          NOTE:  There was a HUGE (and previously unknown to me) bug in 
Wiki where previous versions were NOT being saved correctly, so viewing 
the diff for most (but not all) existing pages will show no 
differences..  However, going forward from now, all future edits will 
be versioned correctly.  Go edit a page and play with it yourself.

    - various bug fixes

I hope to actually cut a release of Wiki sometime this week and make it 
available for download via SourceForge.  I just need to fix the build 
procedure first.

Please let me know if you encounter any problems.

thanks!

Version 1.1 of the WebMacro Open Source web-scripting engine released.

January 13, 2003 -- The WebMacro team (www.webmacro.org) today released =

version 1.1 of the WebMacro templating library. A mature product already=
=20
used by many web sites and applications, this new release of WebMacro=20=

adds powerful new features as well as improvements and bug fixes.=20

WebMacro is an extensible templating engine written in Java, which can b=
e=20
used in Java Servlets as well as regular Java applications. What=20
distinguishes WebMacro from most other web scripting technologies such a=
s=20
Java Server Pages (JSP) is the focus on using pages and output streams=20=

purely for the presentation of dynamic information, leaving the actual=20=

data manipulation in the application where it belongs. This MVC (Model, =

View, Controller) approach results in cleaner and easily maintained=20
applications.

The simple WebMacro scripting language is typically used to produce HTML=
=20
output that contains data from a web application, though it is equally=20=

well suited to XML or any plain text output. Directives are the main=20=

"commands" available, and they are deliberately few in number to keep th=
e=20
language simple. What sets WebMacro's scripting apart from other=20
templating libraries is that developers are free to add their own=20
directives to the language without the need to modify the WebMacro=20
source. The vibrant community of users and developers contribute a wealt=
h=20
of tools and extensions for other WebMacro users.

This new release includes several major new features, including support =

for "macros" which allow the definition of sections of WebMacro script=20=

that can be reused with parameters passed to them. There is also now=20=

support for "global" functions in addition to the usual object method an=
d=20
property access.

"WebMacro has been an incredibly powerful tool for Open Doors Software i=
n=20
its development of web pages, java source file generation, and SQL Data =

Definition Files. WM magnifies Java into a powerful text processor: the =

WM processing language can be learned in about 15 minutes and therefore =

adds to the mantra of simplify, simplify, simplify" said Lane Sharman of=
=20
Open Doors Software.=20

Eric Ridge, who uses WebMacro at Technology Concepts & Design, Inc says =

he "...would be hungry and homeless if it weren't for WebMacro. tcdi use=
s=20
WebMacro to generate everything from webpages to email to=20
source-code. WebMacro has greatly decreased our development time and=20=

increased our productivity."

Amongst WebMacro's larger users are AltaVista which has been using it to=
=20
serve the pages on their site since January 2001.

WebMacro 1.1 is available for free from http://www.webmacro.org

About WebMacro

WebMacro was originally devised and developed by Justin Wells during=20=

1998. The current releases are developed through the joint efforts of=20=

several people from around the world. The core development team currentl=
y=20
has five primary members, with contributions from its many users.=20
WebMacro has been used on major high-availability server projects right =

down to embedded systems with only 32MB RAM and J2ME CDC.

The New Year brings a new version of WebMacro.  Version 1.1.  This 
release includes new features such as #macro and $functions(), along 
with an ever-growing macro library, and numerous bug fixes and 
compatibility fixes with your favorite servlet runners.

Like always, you can download WebMacro here:
       http://www.webmacro.org/DownloadWebMacro

Thanks to everyone involved in the beta cycle.  Please continue to 
report problems and bugs to the -user or -devel lists.

Thanks!

eric

Howdy folks!

WebMacro 1.1b3 has been released.  You can download it from the usual 
place:
        http://www.webmacro.org/DownloadWebMacro

1.1b3 includes a few bug fixes, error message cleanup, new 
configuration options, and more #macro's.

As always, please report problems to the -user list or bugzilla.

Thanks!

eric

Hurry on over to http://www.webmacro.org/DownloadWebMacro to grab 1.1b2.

This release fixes various bugs that have been reported since 1.1 (and 
some that have been around for a long time).

It also includes the beginnings of a macros/ directory where you will 
find #macro's that might be useful.  If you have #macro's that you'd 
like to contribute, feel free to send them to the -user list, or to 
Lane Sharman (la...@sa...).

In addition, this is the first release to be packaged in separate 
binary and source downloads.  If you pick the -src release, you'll be 
able to compile, jar, and test WebMacro in the same manner that the CVS 
junkies do.  Isn't that cool?  Note that the -bin release no longer 
includes webmacro-src.jar.  As this is the first dual release, I would 
appreciate any comments on better directory structure organization.

As always, feel free to send your bug reports, gripes, questions, and 
death threats to web...@li..., or feed 'em to 
Bugzilla:  http://www.webmacro.org/bugzilla.

Thanks and enjoy!

eric

It's been awhile since we had a release, but WebMacro 1.1b1 is finally 
here!

This release includes new and exciting features such as #macro and 
$functions().

Please see http://www.webmacro.org/DownloadWebMacro for download 
instructions.

As always, report bugs to our "user" list, or to bugzilla:  
http://www.webmacro.org/bugzilla/

Thanks!
