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
files as they are likely to change VERY infrequently; this simplifies a lot
of bits of code that would otherwise have to call through VeniceEngine, etc.
Also folded the LocaleFactory class method into the new International object
used for managing the lists.
of "properties" storage and editing for conferences, communities, users, and
the global system. In addition, the "global properties" editing screen got
implemented, because it wasn't there yet.
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)
- cookie-based persistent logins
- expanded activity reporting
- "top" and "fixed" left menus are now dynamically generated from XML config,
not hard coded
- error reporting enhanced and protection increased
- "About Venice" page first draft
- new means of "framing" static content within the Venice "frame"
- base page now includes the "footer" itself, "content" pages don't anymore
- general cleanup of some heavyweight old containers, replaced with faster
Collections framework containers
- probably more, there's a LOT of stuff in here
finally implemented background sweeps of unreferenced cache objects;
anonymous user, when viewing profiles, now sees them as if all "privacy"
flags were switched on
to set their default language and time zone preferences; added footer text
and account signup accept/decline rules; added additional implementation
of dictyionary code for future; minor cleanup of rendering config; and
so forth
cleaned up remaining SQL statements using text columns instead of column
indexes with the ResultSet; fleshed out specifics in the TODO for
SIG administration
so they work now; added the HTML Reference (originally from CW); added the
post output filtering to turn the "pseudo-URIs" in the database into real
URIs
the basis of the conferencing engine is now firmly in place
* tweaks to the HTML Checker to make it better at breaking lines without
leaving stranded punctuation at the beginning or end of a line
* also modified dictionary to better handle possessives and hyphenates
* as always, miscellaneous tweaks and bugfizes as I spot them
(first workout of HTML Checker code)
* modified the dictionary implementation to use a trie system rather than
a set of HashSets, and also started using a new, much smaller dictionary
* general bugfixes and cleanup on other items as needed
