Hey Bram,

I agree that SpringOne was a well-organized, very interesting conference.

Thanks for your presentation and talks afterwards.

Hi Bram,

I’m very enthusiastic to give this application a try. Is the application you posted deployable as-is (as a war)? Or shall I import it first in a IDE? What do you recommend?

Thanks a lot!

You should import it into your IDE or create a build script to build it, I don’t think I added one.
It should be fairly trivial to run it from your IDE.

Hi Bram,

i’ve tried to do an own example app based on your slides and your posted code. I always get an exception while loading, because the xml schema file is not available under http://www.directwebremoting.org/schema/spring/spring-dwr.xsd

Is this the correct url? This is also the first time i use the spring xml syntax. I recognized that in the spring jar the xsd’s are deployed. Can I do this with the spring-dwr too?

Greetings,
Steffen

That’s true, but it will be as soon as we get the next milestone out.

However, there are two things to consider:

1) Spring needs to be able to resolve your schema, this is done by Spring and the XML parser and should be handled by the DWR jar file. The JAR file should contain a META-INF folder containing the Spring namespace definitions. The reaso why the schema is retrieved from the JAR and not from a website, is that an application should also run when no connectivity is available.

2) Your IDE needs to know about the schema in order to do autocompletion. While the schema is not yet online, you can best retrieve the schema from the JAR file and put it on your file system somewhere. And then link you IDE to that file.

Hope this will help,
Bram

Thanks a lot. I used the M2.6 jar from http://dwr.dev.java.net and the deploy worked. But now i added a dwr:remote declaration and the spring context breaks again with the following error.


14:55:57,673 ERROR [ContextLoader] Context initialization failed

Any ideas?

This is probably due to the fact that you are using a previous Spring version. You should use the 2.0-M5 version (which is in the download).
Between version 2.0-M4 and M5 we changed the implementation of the decorator interface.

There must be another reason. I used the spring rc1. But even with the M5 I have the same error.

Actually, I have been struggling with this as well (same XSD problem as Steffen).

I’ve almost migrated it to Maven 2, but it gave me issues. Especially since the Maven 2 pom are not yet uploaded in ibiblio.

If anyone manages to get a war (or an ant script), I’m quite interested to get it.

Cheers

Hai Bram,
I created an easy sample with maven/dwr/script.aculo.us. For this sample I used the autocomplete.js from your javaone sample. Is it oke if I post the sample code including your code on my website? www.gridshore.nl

Thanks for your code, it works like a charm.

hi

can anyone tell me how to define spring application context in dwr.xml

Comment by Marcello Leonardi

Hi

In the sample Application which shows the integration between Spring and DWR in the META-INF directory the files named “spring.schemas” and “spring.schemas” are placed to define the namespace and the namespace handler.
When I get the newest dwr.jar from then the two files are not there.

I intend
files named “spring.schemas” and “spring.handlers”

Hello,

I used both the newest Eclipse and NetBeans but I cannot run the example. Eclipse does not give any messages. NetBeans (and built war file on tomcat 5.5.17) give the following errors:

Nov 22, 2006 4:13:12 PM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader validateJarFile
INFO: validateJarFile(C:\apache-tomcat-5.5.17\webapps\springone\WEB-INF\lib\j2ee-interfaces-1.3.1.jar) - jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class

SEVERE: Error listenerStart
Nov 22, 2006 4:13:14 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Context [/springone] startup failed due to previous errors

If I remove j2ee- interfaces-1.3.1.jar then the INFO disappears but I still see the Error in listenerStart

In addition one can get the created war at

Thank you
