Microsoft buys Groove
While I'm just testing the Blogger Tool from MS Groove, ugh, luckily the Blogger code also works from a browser (a, ahum, MS-browser)... It's gonna take another week or so to finish, have to do real work too, hehe...

Testing the Groove Blogger Tool
Testing the Groove Blogger Tool (Forms-edition)... Trying to edit the post from Groove... Yep, it seems to work!
The Blogger Tool looks like an ordinary Groove Discussion Tool, the main difference: each thread can be posted to a blog. Multiple blogs can be set up. For now the complete thread is simply seen as multiple blog posts which are posted to the selected blog in correct order. The tool will work with blog servers supporting the Atom-API (blogger.com) or Blogger-API (blogger.com, movabletype, etc). Okay, I'll be fixing this tool in the coming week or so, for who's interested: stay tuned...
Testing bold, italic and underline.... ok

Validating XML with PHP using catalogs (on win32)
Problem: I had some XHTML-strict files which needed to be validated using PHP:
sample.html:
<!DOCTYPE html
PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>XHTML validatation test</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hello World</p>
</body>
</html>
Now, in PHP we can use DOMXML as follows:
Continue reading "Validating XML with PHP using catalogs (on win32)"
<?php
$domxml = domxml_open_file('sample.html');
if(is_object($domxml))
{
$error = array();
if($domxml->validate($error))
{
echo 'this file is valid!';
}
}
?>

RSS Reader for Groove (alpha!)
Created a simple RSS Reader (News Client) for Groove. Loosely based on the original NewsClient Tool which Hugh Pyle once wrote. The one I wrote is using the .NET framework though (thank you SB)!.
There was some critisism on the original NewClient tool because due to the nature of a news aggregator (lots of new posts) a Groove space got flagged 'unread' all the time. Luckily with Groove v3 beta you can now switch of 'unread' notification 'per tool'.

Groove v3.0 beta - first looks
 | Just installed Groove 3.0 beta, and first notable thing is its speed ! Aaaaahh, this really is an improvement. What’s more: finally Groove dumped its terrible UI and now opts for a standard windows ‘look and feel’ UI instead. The old ‘transceiver’ is gone alltogether - yeeahaaa - and is replaced with the thingy you see on the left. Much better me thinks!
On the downside: still no search… which is a shame. Also had a quick peek into the Development Kit to look at some sample tool code. Mmm… some major changes I beleive. The CSharp code I saw was new to me, but must say it sure lookes like its simpler then ever before to hack together a custom tool. There is for example a new Groove Workspace API to make coding a tool easier. And - gasp - get data in or out your tool’s database using simple queries (although possible before using XPath-like queries, it looks much easier now). Concluding: Groove 3 looks better, performs better, so it really IS better ;-) |

Flash Hyki
Inspired by Hugh's hyki for Groove I couldn't resist creating one using Flash and Flash Studio Pro.
Download the FlashHyki here (1.4 Mb).
DISCLAIMER:
- The FlashHyki should never be used in a production environment (ie. where you have any Groove spaces which are important or sensitive). It may have adverse effects. There are no warranties of any kind, and there is no support. Use at your own risk.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
- Groove 2.5 or higher
- Latest Flash

dohyki
Hugh: Some while ago Ray brought up the idea of a hyki, and I quickly hacked together an implementation, just to see what it felt like.
A hyki is a wiki for Groove.
Downloaded the code, but alas... not working for me, crashes on startup. I went thru the code to discover the code uses MSXML.XMLHTTP.5.0 which comes with Office2003. I'm using Office2000 (!?) and MSXML5.0 isn't available as a seperate download... After changing to MSXML4.0 accounts, spaces and tools etc. are read ok, but after typing IE crashes.
Anyway: just reading Hugh's code is a pleasure in its own. As always Hugh's Javascript coding is in one word inspiring. The code contains a load of cool JS-trickery of which I didn't even know it was possible. Go get the hyki if you want to learn something or, better still: use it!

CADViewer for Groove
Rewrote our Suite75 CADViewer Tool for Groove after people complained about a load of bugs. Sorry about that folks, but that's what happens when you freeload! ;-)
Anyway, there indeed where a whole lot of bugs. So decided to do the rewrite in C#, which gave me the possibility to learn coding a Groove Tool on the .NET platform. Not much difference really with the JavaScript I used before, event handling is somewhat different. Beleive I managed to eliminate most of the bugs, but haven't had much time testing the CADViewer.
So...
If you:
1) have Microsoft's .NET Framework installed
2) have a Groove version 2.5 or higher
3) accept possible bugs
Then you can inject the CADViewer here, and feel the joy of viewing and redlining drawings together.
