4e251e72e1 implemented the system administrator function "Import User Accounts," allowing
a sysadmin to create mass quantities of user accounts automatically by
uploading an XML file

f5a5009932 completed the transition away from features and toward "services" - the old
database-based configuration has been replaced with the new XML-based one.
This paves the way for further modularization of the code.

3752e73c2d the first real phase of service integration - mostly it's the configuration
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!)

41299f6d85 the permissions system was screwing up somehow for static permissions -
EnvUser, EnvCommunity, and EnvConference each need to keep a reference to their
own SecurityMonitor, we can't rely on getStaticMonitor() (but we still need it,
to make the other "wrapper" functions work)

a376aad722 a more permanent fix to that Find problem - moved the "static" functions
defined in the JSP to the FindData object and eliminated the InternalStateError
throw.  Lesson here, kids...just because you CAN do a thing doesn't mean you
SHOULD do a thing.

2b474688dd oops again...import the entire except package (god, the design of this file is
so totally bletcherous I'm barfing...it needs rework SOON!)

b6a849e7e8 Find got broken there...my bad. That page needs some rework BAD. 2001-11-19 08:02:21 +00:00

54807085b2 did some javadocs for the new security classes, now that they're pretty much
in their final form

de971c9c7b continued the separation by shifting all the exceptions into their own package
(preparatory to establishing some sort of service-based architecture)

9854ba1f76 completed the transition to the new security architecture - the old stuff
has now been removed completely; the VeniceEngine is managing the conference
level SecurityMonitor for now
2001-11-18 22:14:12 +00:00
Eric J. Bowersox
5f966a6450 first stage of transitioning to the new SecurityMonitor-based security
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

47b88efd75 MAJOR restructuring of the engine code to get the execution environment info
separated from the internal objects (as well as separating the internal
interfaces), some prep work for modularizing the SIG-to-service interface so
it'll be easier to add chat and stuff.  Also fixed up a display issue with
1-character CDTextFormFields.

313a46818f moved the language and country lists OUT of the database and into properties
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.

0750e3f2cd there was a problem with security on conf.getHideList()/conf.setHideList() -
added conf.canSetHideList() and some extra code to EditConferenceDialog to
help get around this.

0437cc7b92 second round of cache cleanups - got rid of that bogus pile of monkey spew
that was ReferenceCache, replaced it with the much cleaner ObjectCache (it
uses SoftReferences so that the "sweep" operation is pretty much automatic)

070fd2c9e2 implemented the "pics in posts" flag globally...it marks the first appearance
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.

0bb2e795a4 implementation of the "bozo filter" on a topic level, including a topic-level
"Manage" screen (to hang "Rename Topic" from later, too).

bc859178f2 implemented the ability to upload community logos, similar to how we did user
photos

dde12bdf2e THE GREAT RENAMING! All that was "SIG" should now be "community," except for
the database and the URLs (for backward compatibility).  Do a full rebuild
after browsing this one!

e201ecb34b added automated password recovery to the password reminder messages 2001-11-05 00:40:07 +00:00
Eric J. Bowersox
1c69955046 Reworked the sidebox implementation to depend less on the database and more
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.

maybe this was the problem all along?) and tweaked the default stylesheet to
try and resolve problems that some Mac users are having

f1584f3f4a minor changes to the links on top bar, left bar, sideboxes so they track the
CSS classes yet keep consistent with the font sizes on the rest of the page...
allows us to do the "hover-underline" trick that nrpa.org uses

ec878e9dfc Venice now groks Cascading StyleSheets; the stylesheet is generated by a
special servlet and cached at runtime; various JSP pages and formatter classes
have been updated to respect the stylesheet settings

6397f4212c implemented user photos! (imagestore table, ImageRetrieve servlet, a lot of
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)
