Re: Testing new node cache (order by)

Thanks for finding the first big problem with this round of testing, y'all.

Yes, the "order by" parameter was changed to a "misc" parameter and it tries to be backward compatable so that old code that uses it as "order by" will still work. I haven't looked at the specific case yet (busy with my day job), but I will ASAP. The backward compatability must need adjusting...

The "order by" problem has been fixed. Now to figure out why code display doesn't work (it works just fine outside of mod_perl)... - tye	[reply]

The "code display" problem was some big problems in handling usergroups so I'm cleaning up group handling. Things are finally picking up on this front so I hope to have it working fairly soon... - tye	[reply]

Since I do the vast majority of this development on a platform that doesn't have a database, testing was a problem. I've been spending time getting DBD::AnyData working and there were several interesting challenges but I finally got it running just a couple of days ago. Big thanks to jZed for writing a mountain of code that makes it possible for me to implement a limited-functionality SQL database without using a C compiler, and for being very helpful with the snags I ran into. Now I'm writing unit tests and have found a few tiny (in code size) bugs that were introduced in the group-handling rewriting and preventing the rather tricky boot-strapping of the node cache from working. Given how successful the near-live testing previously went and how small the bugs I've found were, I once again feel I'm very close. Of course, this project often progresses very slowly (obviously), so calendar-wise it is hard to predict when the next near-live testing will begin. Thanks for y'all's patience... - tye	[reply]
