Announcment: T5 FCK editor integration library
Hello everyone
we have used FCK editor for quite some time now with file uploading
capabilities, and we needed the same functionality in several clients that
would have had to be kept separate due to licensing issues. Thus we agreed
to make it publicly available and so we have to keep only one copy up to
date.
Currently the project lives in http://code.google.com/p/easyfckeditor/, but
I hope that we get Tapestry 360 site soon. Also, are there any maven
repositories that would accept packages without much fuss? The using would
be _much_ easier if the library was in a maven repository.
Anyway, here is short description of the project (I hope that you enjoy, and
remember to give feedback.):
Easy Fck Editor is open source extension to Tapestry 5 that uses (as the
name implies) FCK Editor under it's hood to deliver easy richtext editor
component with file upload capabilities.
The main focus is to do everything Tapestry 5 way: you can work entirely
with the provided (and excellent I might add) IoC as developers are used to.
Also the idea is to really provide such documentation that it is easy to
follow and understand. Easy Fck Editor aims to be simple to use and yet
provide good interface to aid in extending and securing Tapestry 5 based
rich editor needs.
Why? Doesn't ChenilleKit already have one?
Easy Fck Editor project started because the editor in ChenilleKit couldn't
handle file uploads. Also I found that (at that time atleast) the
documentation was not on very good level. I also didn't need but a fraction
of what ChennilleKit provided. For me, I would be more merrier if there was
tiny bits that I can put together in the project pom, so that I could
"harvest" the libraries I need. This is also why I intent to package all
forthcoming Tapestry 5 extensions as separate jars where possible. (CKEditor
should follow shortly.)

Mainly because we had it already as standalone jar, and the time that I would
have had to use before having commit rights to ChenilleKit would have taken
too long. Busy schedule as you might guess.
Also I see this as more of an standalone thing, not necessarily as part of
the application framework thing you have going on. Of course, you're free to
use the provided code anyway you see fit ;)
Also I'll be updating that jar as part of my job, which unfortunately
dictates what I can do and what not when I'm using the office hours for open
source. The dream lives that I could work full time for the benefit of open
source software :) In the mean time though...

Why invent the wheel again?
I know and agree with you, that the chenillekit documentation is far away
from being the big shot, but we invite everybody to contribute the project
and share your time to create the real big one

Hi,
We have been using FCK happily for ages now. This editor is tested at least
with the progressive display, but nothing more exotic. Perhaps I have to do
some test cases with zone.
Also, the total rewrite of FCK, now known as CKEditor looks much more
promising, that we are using also. I think I can publish a library as soon
as the CKEditor hits 3.0 final, now it is RC 1. Take a look :
http://ckeditor.com/ckeditor/3.0rc/_samples/index.html.
- Ville
Ps. The yui library seems definitely worth looking...

I've been having problems with FCKEditor (I haven't tried your library
however) in that it caused problems with other Ajax components on the
same page, for reasons I didn't have time and skill to diagnose. In my
workshop, I'm starting to switch over to Yahoo's rich text editor
instead.

I'm beginning to think that Tapestry 360 hosting code & issue's is not
going to be sustainable.
I want to shift the focus to being a build environment, Maven
repository and a location for static web sites ... but code and issues
I think will be better served on Google or on GitHub.

Hi again,
I rolled new version that has
<source>1.5</source>
<target>1.5</target>
tags set in build configuration. This should do the trick, right? (Have no
machine where I could verify with 1.5 java, and I'm too lazy to install one
:))

It looks good. Thanks for contributing!
When I tried it (after manually adding the jar to my web-app project), I
got:
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class
file
EasyFCKEditor is compiled with JDK 1.6, while we have to run with JDK 1.5.
