Re: help needed in project - SWAZOO

Ramneek - which dialect of Smalltalk are you using? i am assuming that,
since you are at UIUC that you are using VisualWorks. if that is the case,
then you'll need to ask for help from someone else on the Swazoo mailing
list ([hidden email]) as i an not a VisualWorks user.

once you get it running, the best place to start in trying to understand
the code it with the unit tests.

i am glad to hear that you are porting wiki functionality to Swazoo! that
is something we've been wanting for a long time!

Hi Ramneek:

Everyone on this list would be glad to help. Please sign up for this mailing

http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=4198

Will get you directly to the SWAZOO project page that allows you to join the
list.

Good luck!!

Ramnesh,

I'm also assuming that you're running VisualWorks. Please let me know
what version of VW you're running. If you're using 5i.3 or 5i.4, I can
get you the latest parcels. The VisualWorks 3.0 parcels haven't been
touched (by me) for a while.

OOPSLA roll-call

In reply to this post by David Farber

i'll be at OOPSLA. who else is going to make it?

i haven't worked on the squeak port of Swazoo in a while, but i did do some
work with serving sockets a few months back (which is where the current
port is having problems)--i'm pretty sure i could get Swazoo up and running
now. i'll bring all the code i have with me and we can see if we can
(finally!) get it running under squeak.

Ramneek,

Sorry I spelled your name wrong last time. :{ I think I was tired...

I will do my best to get the latest 5i.4 parcels out to the Swazoo-Devel
list tonight. If you're not on the list, let me know and I'll CC: you.

Ramneek,

I'd start by looking at the SiteRegistry and seeing if you can get a
"Hello World" resource up and running.

Make a file 'sites.cnf' that looks like this:

<Site>
<SiteIdentifier ip: '127.0.0.1' port: 80 host: 'localhost'>
<HelloWorld stringUriPattern: '/'>
</Site>

Then, from the image, run:

SiteRegistry flush; configureFrom: 'sites.cnf'

You should then be able to run a web browser to http://localhost and see
'Hello World!' (unless you're on Linux running as non-root, then you
might have to put the server on port 8080 and run your browser to
http://localhost:8080). If you change the SiteRegistry's configuration,
you'll need to flush the site registry, collect garbage, and then send
#configureFrom: again.

That's a good starting point for getting it working, anyhow. Once you
verify that it works, you can look a little deeper.

----

The parcels attached should load straight into 5i.4 if you use the
following procedure:

Delete the files $VISUALWORKS/goodies/other/Swazoo.p*-- they goof up the
load
Uncompress this archive into your current image directory
Load the parcel Swazoo-VisualWorks

These parcels aren't the latest -- there are at least two known problems
that will be fixed in code that I'll send out later today. But this
should let you at least get started.
