to get and set it, added "date" dialog field and updated registration,
profile, and admin modify to use it to change a user's date of birth; added
BDAY support to vCards and rigged user import/export to take it into account;
cleaned up a few other matters while I was in that particular code
using techniques from newer Dynamo version, allow source to compile and work
using newer versions of J2SDK, Tomcat, BSF, other libraries; bugfixes to get
everything running in a newer environment
do pretty much anything; emailer and stock messages are now managed through
the GlobalSite; security-releated generation is now handled through the
Generator class instead of several different ones
also tweaked the session code to allow session types other than standard HTTP
cookie-based sessions. The XML-RPC code doesn't do anything interesting yet.
participants: to wit, any user can opt-out from ALL those mailings with one
setting; each message now carries a standard disKlaimer indicating how the
user can opt-out (and it's REAL opt-out, not this fakey stuff the spammers do)
file, the bare beginnings of the Service Control Manager on the server side,
and the new "community left menu" on the client side (still controlled by the
existing feature mechanism, for now). The engine still needs to incorporate
the SCM in place of the old feature definitions. Also added some utility
classes (StockMessage, XMLLoader) to aid with loading XML data from the
config files (big help in the RenderConfig constructor and
VeniceEngineImpl.initialize!)
architecture--it's implemented at the global level and for communities,
conferences still use the old hard-coded implementation. The new
StaticSecurityMonitor is configured via XML data, which will be important
when we implement the new Community Services architecture
on XML config files...the implementation should now be much more customizable
and less klunky. Added a provision for implementing "generic" (JSP-driven)
sideboxes. Implemented the sidebox configure button on the front page
(finally!). Implemented a random password generator class which will be used
in a future implementation of reminder-driven automatic forgotten-password
changing. Fixed some minor funnies in SIG menu generation.
the underlying support) - incidentally, this is a lot of support for the SIG
logo as well, just need some front end work for that in the future
(of course, we now require JAI 1.1.1)
- added color customization in render-config.xml
- added ability to scale size of Venice logo in footer
- added ability to customize size of site logo, as well as add a hyperlink
- moved to use of LOG4J 1.1.3, LOG4J now installed in Venice lib directory
instead of in JRE extensions directory (only Java extensions should go in
JRE extensions directory)
- close to requiring JAXP 1.1 (will still work with 1.0 though)
