What goes in, must come out!

Wed, 22 Apr 2009 09:54:00 GMT

In the early days of WebManager 9, I did a content migration by reading data from a set of XML files and storing them in WebManager. That was a hell of a job! The last couple of weeks I’ve been doing about the same thing, but this time it was much easier. Why? We now have the Connector API and the Content API!

Accessing services in GX WebManager

Wed, 04 Mar 2009 23:35:00 GMT

As most of you will already know the GX WebManager Component Framework is an application level abstraction build on top of the Apache Felix implementation of the OSGi™ specification. GX WebManager Components are basically services as are the platform services provided. Therefore building WebManager Components, that do a little more then just sitting there, means you are accessing other services. Here is a short overview of the different ways you can do that and why you should or should not prefer them.

9.7: Pimped archetypes!

Fri, 23 Jan 2009 23:00:00 GMT

In the new WebManager 9.7 release, the archetypes have been pimped. The archetypes of 9.6 were based on the maven archetype plugin that has been significantly improved over the last year. Upgrading to this new plugin (which requires at least maven 2.0.7) opened up the door to many new features, like dynamic classnames and filenames. These new features allowed us to fix stuff that the archetypes previously caused to fail in the certification process, if the archetypes were used 'as-is'. But this is no more! In 9.7 you can generate your code from the archetypes and it will pass the certification process from scratch!
