Debug cocoon applications

Hi,

I want to debug cocoon applications in eclipse. I have successfully
integrated eclipse, tomcat plugin, and sunbow plugin.

Can anyone give me detailed steps, as to how to debug my cocoon application


Thanks,
Sanket.

Have you read 
http://radio.weblogs.com/0108489/stories/2002/05/27/sunbowGettingStarted.html?

Personally, I didn't have much success with Sunbow, but maybe I just 
didn't invest enough time in it.
I would be interested to know if you get it working.

You want to configure you logging to use the normal webapp logs rather
than logkit. This way it can be debugged like any other web app. I
seem to recall that the documentation on logging covers this. I'll
just go and check.

Wouldn't you know it... as soon as I sent that off, I finally found what 
I was looking for.

http://www.s-und-n.de/sunshine/ccos/de/produkte/english/sunbow
has a more up-to-date page on sunbow, with sunBow 2.0.1 for Eclipse 3.0 
M6/M7 (beta).

This must be the page that http://radio.weblogs.com/0108489/ meant to 
link to.

I also volunteer to share my thoughts and time to push such an
initiative any further. Just keep me updated what's going on and what
your ideas, plans and possibilities are.

I will!  And I think quite a few other people are about to do the
same. Quite interesting news, indeed.

BTW and OT: I downloaded and registered your plug ins quite a while
ago. I was very appealed as I received after a few days a mail stating
that a new version with bug fixes was available. Chapeaux!

Happy Weekend!

I have a lot of experience with these plugins ;-)

They provide 3 main features:
- a "cocoon start" plugin that sets up a new Eclipse project with a 
webapp directory containing Cocoon libraries and a basic sitemap,
- a sitemap editor,
- a CForms definition editor.

The two editors are what we call "bijective editors": several tabs 
provide different views on a single file, all sync'ed without saving. 
There's of course the source view with the usual autocompletion feature 
and several tabs providing a form-oriented view on the file. These views 
allow people to quickly edit files by just filling in forms. This is 
useful for newbies that don't know the XML schema of sitemap or form 
definitions, but also bring a lot of productivity even for more 
experienced users. Those that already wrote a lengthy form definition 
know what I mean!

There are also some specialized outline views since you want to view a 
tree of the structural elements of the file and not all its details 
(e.g. you don't want to see all <map:parameter> in the outline like what 
raw XML editors do).

Now about the business/community issue, I understand your concern. 
Cocoon would be much more appealing to IT managers if it had some 
opensource tooling. At least the basic tooling. For this reason and also 
some others, we, Anyware Technologies, decided to change the way our 
Cocoon-related plugins are distributed and developed. There are some 
things currently going on (I won't say more now), but your concerns 
should be addressed more than you expect in the coming weeks.

About the current status of our plugins: you can download them for free 
with an evaluation licence, and we currently are not able to answer 
questions about their price. Guess why ;-)

I also started some time ago some work on a debugger for many things in 
Cocoon: sitemap, jxtemplate, xslt, forms definitions and bindings, etc. 
Actually potentially everything that is based on some tree-based 
interpreter. I have a raw experiment on my laptop but currently lack 
time to finish it. The commercial status of this debugger. <RT>Don't 
know if there's some interest for community sponsoring and/or 
contributions, we're open to discussions</RT>

Stay tuned!

Re: AW: Debug cocoon applications

Posted by Markus Vaterlaus <mv...@gmail.com>.
Hello Oleg, hi list,

I tried some of their plug ins and they are quite useful and
interesting. Maybe there are quite a few other plug ins out there
which support you whilst you work with cocoon. Furthermore there are
over a dozen or so plug ins floating around that support you dealing
with XML and XSLT.

However, IMHO it's not the point that there are several other tools out there.

The point is, that none of these tools really fits in the real need
nor is it tightly bound to cocoon. The plug ins from s&n or anyware
are both bound to the respective firm and their strategy and not the
cocoon community. Which is fine in a commercial sense, but I think we
should focus on a potential cocoon first timer. These firms (or some
of their employees) are respected and valuable members of the
community. And I really appreciate what they've done to become cocoon
what it is. And I also understand (or at least I think I'll do :)
their motivation to offer such tools. However, frankly, what cocoon
and it's community needs more than that is a set of tools which
enables our first timer to get his feet wet. I think such tools should
not be bound on a commercial business case in the first place. They
should be bound to the community and its product, needs and
expectations.

Just think for yourself. As an IT manager do you consider to look
closer at a framework, that is OSS and pretty cool, but to get you
started you have to fire up notepad? Doesn't sound quite cool to me.
If you leave out notepad, and look around, you'll find some other
tools which are of unknown quality, availability and support. If you
choose one of them and you have bad luck, you happen to end up with
Notepad again in a very short time.

For example have a look at tomcat. The manager and admin applications
added quite a value to the "product". Everybody using tomcat before
version 3.x knows what I'm talking about. In this respect, cocoon also
needs some best of breed / practice (sorry the marketing lingo), that
supports the first steps. I think a good plug-in in eclipse could do
the job. For instance, I'd prefer a basic set of tools that enable me
to develop an little application, to deploy and manage it. If I need
at a later time further support or better tools, I'm willing to pay
for it (and I hope other's are too). If so, there is also a market for
more advanced tools. Or to put it short: I don't need  five different
tools to do some basic tasks, but none of them really satisfying. I
just need a good one. But this tool has to be supported by the
community and bound to the community product.

Although, if you have any experiences with the plug ins from anyware,
please share them with us.

Guys,

Why are you so concentrated on sunBow ?

Has anybody tried Cocoon plug-ins from AnywhereTech ?
Are they more mature than SunBow ?
See:
http://www.anyware-tech.com/en/developper/EclipsePlugins/EclipsePlugins.html

Any better ones ?

Thank you,
Oleg.

Well let me add my voice to the requests to open-source Sunbow or start a
Cocoon tool subproject! Sitemap tracing (showing XML output at each
stage) would be a great boon to debugging Cocoon apps and even learning
Cocoon in the first place.

The version limitations mentioned previously do put a serious dent in the
usefulness of sunBow.

As you have guessed S&N is not a tools company and sunBow was originally
developed as part of a student project. We currently have not committed any
resources to further development.

We, for one, have no plans to release a commercial product.

There have been discussions in the past about Open Sourcing sunBow or
starting a Cocoon tool subproject or... But for various reasons these
discussions have just faded and never lead to anything.

I will however take your email as a wake-up call and see what mountains I
can move :-).

Stay tuned.

Re: Re[2]: Debug cocoon applications

Posted by Markus Vaterlaus <mv...@gmail.com>.
Hi all,

In my opinion sunBow is a very good low level tool set to support the
cocoon projects done in eclipse. The functions I use most are the
deployment functionality and the XSLT trace. Not quite cocoon
specific, but very useful. Although, the xml/xsl editor is quite
useful for "easy" tasks, it is not sophisticated enough if you have
more complex requirements. For example do validation and code
completion based on xml schema or relax NG. Another annoying thing is,
that it requires to achieve best results a quite outdated milestone
build of eclipse and an cocoon version not available as source package
on cocoon's download page. This fact leads to the question if further
development is put on hold...

Sorry, for my openness. I know, that ATM sunBow is offered for free by
s&n. And the business model of s&n is not built on offering good tools
for free. Although, I think offering sunBow for free was a great move
and I'm thankful for that. However, I think it would be a pretty good
thing, to offer a bunch of supporting applications with the cocoon
distribution. Just imagine the benefits if a first time user of cocoon
gets a good framework for XML publishing *and* helpful applications
which enable the user to rapidly develop and deploy his xml
applications. However actually the further development is restricted
to the s&n's resource allocation to sunBow. Wouldn't it be a good
thing if development of such a tool is independent of just one firm
(or one person). Has s&n ever thought about opening the source? Has
Anyware Technologies, offering another tool set, ever had such
thoughts? Or are both planing to offer a commercial product?

Sorry, might be a bit OT and I'd like to add, that I really appreciate
the work all the above mentioned firms have done. However, it is never
to late to start a discussion....

Please note that the Sitemap-Debugger only works with Cocoon 2.1.4,
because it replaces some components of Cocoon which maybe have changed
in the meantime. Furhtermore it is possible that some components of
sunBow does not work correctly in the latest eclipse as the last version
was for the m6/m7 of Eclipse 3.

It would be nice to have a working version at least of the Sitemap-Debugger
again, because it was sometimes very helpfull, but we will see ...

I think the above page tells how to debug Cocoon itself, at the source 
level, in Eclipse.
Is it also useful for debugging Cocoon applications? If so, the page 
doesn't tell how.

The original poster mentioned Sunbow, so it seems that he wants to trace 
the sitemap execution.

Personally, I wish there were an alternative to Sunbow, or that Sunbow 
were being developed more actively. The latest link I can find is to a 
version of Sunbow (2.0) that is untested with Eclipse 3.*, and even that 
link is not working today.
Does anyone have a copy of 
http://sunshine.s-und-n.de/downloads/sunBow/sunBow-plugins-2.0.zip that 
they could send me?

Thanks,
Lars
