ROO-1537 & ROO-1538 resolved

Posted on: 10-16-2010

I don't know if you've noticed yet, but I'm a big fan of both Roo and the guys behind Roo. Big thanks to Alan & James from the forum post, ROO-1537 and ROO-1538, as of git version a474dc7b95613fae564f0e0fa50d89a6818bd753, and tested today one day later, my scripts run flawlessly through the tests! Which means, we can continue with Tiles. Stay tuned!

The guys at SpringSource have too many links to STS 3.5.0.M3, finding 3.5.0.RC1 was a bit hard, so if you're looking for it, go here: http://www.springsource.com/products/eclipse-downloads

1236: MySQL replication problem solved

Posted on: 10-15-2010

Ever seen this before? Got fatal error 1236 from master when reading data from binary log: 'Could not find first log file name in binary log index file' I had that after a MySQL server in my replication loop went down. When it came up, the next server in line gave this replication state 'Relay log read failure: Could not parse relay log event entry. The possible reasons are: the master's binary log is corrupted (you can check this by running 'mysqlbinlog' on the binary log), the slave's relay log is corrupted (you can check this by running 'mysqlbinlog' on the relay log), a network problem, or a bug in the master's or slave's MySQL code. If you want to check the master's binary log or slave's relay log, you will be able to know their names by issuing 'SHOW SLAVE STATUS' on this slave', which was quite ...

Main composition

While resolving the test problems in the last code, let's look at what we get by doing a

mvn jetty:run

The application has a header on top, a footer in the bottom, and a menu on the left hand side. This is in line with the Composite View pattern described in the Tiles tutorial:. To recompose this layout, see src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/layouts/layouts.jspx. In there you find that what we want to work with is , but working with this file will let you get the basic layout you want. The different attributes are found in layouts.xml, and they reference ...

Tiles for Roo

Posted on: 10-10-2010

I love Roo! Ben Alex and his team have made a great job making starting a Spring project a breeze. However, I've shied away from using Java for XHTML/JS/CSS since 2003, so while I know the underlying technologies with Roo (JPA, the databases, Spring, JUnit, Tomcat, etc etc) I don't know Apache Tiles at all. So I figured I'd like to learn it, at least until Roo 1.1 hits in a few weeks, when I'll probably want to learn GWT. Stay tuned...
