[hunchentoot-devel] Re: [slime-devel] slime-texi patch
by Jeffrey Cunningham 15 Jan '07

Hmmm. This is strange. I was given commit privileges specifically for doing extensive work on doc/slime.texi. CVS lets me log in alright and seems to accept the changes - prompts me for comments and everything. But I just checked out a fresh copy and none of the changes I made this month (several sessions) are there. And yet, the changes I made in December are there (for example, the image on the front page). I don't know what to make of it. I'm going to post a patch to the list which incorporates the changes you made plus those I've made. (attached) Here's a changelog entry for it: 2007-01-14 Jeff Cunningham <jeffrey(a)cunningham.net> * doc/slime.texi: Update of function/key index with links. --Jeff On Sun Jan 14, 2007 at 07:54:38PM -0800, Bill Clementson wrote: > Hi Jeff, > > On 1/14/07, Jeffrey Cunningham <jeffrey(a)cunningham.net> wrote: > >On Sun Jan 14, 2007 at 05:10:32PM -0800, Bill Clementson wrote: > >> Attached is a patch for slime-texi.

[hunchentoot-devel] favicon.ico patch for test.lisp
by Yoni Rabkin Katzenell 14 Jan '07

14 Jan '07

Some time ago I added two lines to test.lisp which add a favicon to the "menu" page. Maybe someone here will find it useful in a Google search. You don't actually need the patch, but it is the shortest method of explaining what to add where. -- "Cut your own wood and it will warm you twice"

[hunchentoot-devel] How to pass define-easy-handler symbol?
by Jeffrey Cunningham 14 Jan '07

14 Jan '07

This is probably a dumb question, but I haven't been able to figure it out yet. Suppose I want to call 'DEFINE-EASY-HANDLER inside another function and pass the symbol as an argument. I tried stuff like this: (defun some-function (name) (define-easy-handler ((intern name) (concatenate 'string name ".html") :default-request-type :post) ((formarg :parameter-type :keyword) (html-generator name formarg))) But it wants a real symbol. Then I tried passing names as symbols and turning them into strings where I needed. That works in the sense that it creates the page, but each one is bound to the same symbol no matter what symbols I give it, so only the last page created works. Is there a way to do this? Thanks for any help. --Jeff

The reason is Hunchentoot's heritage from TBNL which was a single-server library. And the fact that I myself almost never use more than one server per image. > - if yes, do you think it will be changed? I'm pretty busy right now, so don't hold your breath.

However, I get a lot of patches where I finally end up re-writing most of what I received which really doesn't save time. What I'd like to see is: - Follow the coding and indentation conventions I use elsewhere in the code. - Don't use tab characters. - Every function/variable/class/slot/etc. should have a reasonable documentation string. - The patch should include updates to the HTML documentation as well (if necessary). Yes, I'm anal about this, sorry. Anyway - apart from that I'm always happy to incorporate patches. And if I like the new code enough, I might also end up doing the work listed above myself. But it'll be faster if someone else has already done so. Thanks, Edi.

Re: [hunchentoot-devel] accessing xml data from xforms/xhtml post
by dat 04 Jan '07

Thanks, Marijn (esp. for the kind/merciful parenthetical note). Your guess was correct. Although 'view source' didn't reveal anything in this particular case, looking at the data in lisp made it clear what was going on: I was using a browser to look at the value returned by RAW-POST-DATA and had lazily stuck <pre></pre> tags around the xml, not realizing the xml between the tags wasn't displayed by firefox... Thanks again, Alan Thompson dathomp1(a)yahoo.com ----- Original Message ---- From: Marijn Haverbeke <marijnh(a)gmail.com> To: tbnl-devel(a)common-lisp.net Sent: Thursday, January 4, 2007 6:20:59 AM Subject: Re: [hunchentoot-devel] accessing xml data from xforms/xhtml post 2. However, Hunchentoot's RAW-POST-DATA returns only "2 1"...all of the xml tag information is (apparently) discarded. Is there a straightforward way to get anything a littler "rawer"? Are you perhaps looking at the data in your browser? If so, have you tried 'view source'? (The browser will interpret the XML as messy HTML and not show tags... this has confused me in the past.)

[hunchentoot-devel] Idle thread messages
by Jonathon McKitrick 04 Jan '07

04 Jan '07

I searched the docs for 'idle' and 'thread' and google didn't turn up anything pertinent... is there any reason to be concerned about the idle thread messages that appear from time to time from hunchentoot? During debugging, they can pop up rather frequently in SLIME, and otherwise they are just logged to the console. Does this have anything to do with *cleanup-interval*?

[hunchentoot-devel] accessing xml data from xforms/xhtml post
by dat 04 Jan '07

04 Jan '07

I'm hoping this isn't in the "lame questions" category... Is there a straightforward way to have hunchentoot look at xml data submitted by an xforms document? (This comes from playing with firefox with the xforms extension.) Example: 1. Using the "post" method (not "form-data-post"), an xforms document submits xml at the end of the day. If the firefox "livehttpheaders" plugin isn't lying, it looks something like: POST /tadmin/qeditor-qcatsel HTTP/1.1 Host: 127.0.0.1:3000 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061208 Firefox/2.0.0.1 Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5 Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 300 Connection: keep-alive Content-Length: 215 Content-Type: application/xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Category1/> <Category2/> <Category3/> <Selectaquestion>2 1</Selectaquestion> </data> 2. However, Hunchentoot's RAW-POST-DATA returns only "2 1"...all of the xml tag information is (apparently) discarded. Is there a straightforward way to get anything a littler "rawer"? Unfortunately, I'm definitely on the lisp 'newbie' side and got lost on planet chunga as I was trying to figure things out...
