Comment on Logging in Cocoon 2.2 by dom

@Andreas Hartmann Excellent — I’m glad that works for you. Apart from the log4j.xml. I much prefer log4j.properties.

The following configuration for the surefire plugin is needed to make the log4j configuration work with the tests:

      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
          <systemProperties>
            <property>
              <name>log4j.configuration</name>
              <value>file://${project.basedir}/etc/log4j.xml</value>
            </property>
          </systemProperties>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>

Comment on The Perforce Perspective by dom

@Tony Smith Thanks! That's helpful. Though it feels slightly odd to me (when compared to other VCS) that you have to take care of this yourself.

Here’s a better recipe for adding files:

$ find . -type f | p4 -x – add 2>/dev/null

It just adds everything in the current directory and below and the files that already exist will fail. If you have files in your workspace that you want to exclude from this (*.o etc.), then just unmap them from your client workspace:

-//….o //myproject-client/unmapped/….o

This will ensure that the ‘p4 add’ fails for those files.

Actually, since I wrote this, eclipse 3.5 SR1 has been released. There is now a 64-bit cocoa download available from the regular eclipse download page.

Comment on Book review: Solr 1.4 Enterprise Search Server by dom

Well, thank you. It’s a really good book, and just the thing I was after a few months back. I’m sure it’ll help a lot more people get to grips with Solr.

Comment on No escape() from JavaScript by dom

dom — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 10:36:55 +0000

Thanks — that’s useful to know, particularly now IntelliJ is freely available. But I really do feel that it should be part of JSLint as so many people rely on it…

FWIW, IntelliJ IDEA warns me of this problem (encode being deprecated). Consequently, I haven’t used encode() in a long time because of it.
