2.1.7-Dev - Commit 156144 - Borked, or am I mad?

[Ben Pope <be...@REMOVE_MEhotmail.com>]

Hi guys,

Am I going mad, or did this break some of my stuff?

It seems as though some of my forms are being cached now, and the change is
to do with removing stuff from the cache...

If this isn't the case, I apologise for pointing fingers, but I'm sure it
worked a couple of days ago.  I updated today, recompiled and it stopped
working, reverted back and it works again.

Anybody else seeing this behaviour?

I restarted Jetty a couple of times, but it was definitely displaying data
that was no longer in the data file!  And none of my pages seem to change
when I feed in a different parameter.  I still get the same continuation id
embedded in the page.  Even accessed it from a different browser, one that
has never visited said page.

Yes, I've learnt my lesson :-)

Most of what I didn't have a backup of was open in an editor, I think I lost
one file... To do with XMLHTTP, which I got from the xhr_carselector sample,
anyway.  So just a little bit of client side javascript for populating a row
is missing, and a few very small transformations, which won't take too long.
I think it'll all be ok - last night it was the end of the world though!

Thanks for the heads up - I'll do that now.  I did wonder where the option
to do this was when I first started using cocoon, but only for about 10
seconds, then I just placed it in the webapp directory.

This will allow much better organisation of my life.

Cheers, and keep up the good work, certain previous conversations on here
have been very interesting and I look forward to their fruition.

On a completely unrelated note :-p I'm gonna try some of your eclipse
plugins.

It's really a bad idea to put your work in build/webapp, event if it 
looks like a convenient place at first.

You should take a look at mount-table.xml.sample in the main Cocoon 
directory and read the instructions there: it allows to mount 
directories at arbitrary locations in your build/webapp, thus avoiding 
accidental deletion by a "build clean".

I think I'm mad, so ignore me.

Bit difficult to tell now, didn't realise a build clean just deleted the
webapp directory.

Shame really, as my work was there.
