Hi
I think we can have some solution

- is there a public api to interact with jlcp provided services, e.g.
user management.
You can use DAO thru WebServices and implement your own presentation layer.

Can we not explore idea of having component services and presentation layer
independent to each other and can run on different servers for single
organization i.e. one can run WebServices on say tomcat1 and presentation on
tomcat 2. User can access JLCP thru tomcat2 and get complete functionality.
Security seems issue but we can stop access to tomcat1 by assigning IP on
intranet or run on port not directly allowed by firewall.

Arun

Reply-To: [email protected]

Team,
    You can now approve which users are able to sign on to your site.
To turn this on in your distribution, just go to the administration
console and click on Set General Site Properties.  Just uncheck the box
for autoapproval and then you can approve users that create accounts
from the User Admin tab.  You'll also want to configure the smtp server
info so that it can send approval and rejection notices to your users.
It also looks like Paul has fixed up the weird link problems.  Now if I
could just fiugre out why some of my fonts are much smaller than others :)

-Matt

Description:
Matthew Porter brought up the idea of allowing admins to approve which users
are entered into the system.  This is a very good idea and shouldn't be too
hard to deal with in the backend (perhaps add a property - approved) and
easy enough to do in the frontend administration console.

Subject: [jl-volunteers] jlcp ready for custom modules?
Reply-To: [email protected]

hi,

we are about to build a community software with some custom
functionality in addition to the more standard forum, user management,
buddy list and so on stuff.
the system should be based on j2ee and we would like to build on top of
some "standard" community platform. jlcp seems to fit nice.
my question that far is how well does jlcp support such a "custom
module" concept already?
more precise:
- is there a public (stable) api for such custom components?
- is there a public api to interact with jlcp provided services, e.g.
user management.
- is there something like extension point to add functionality or change
behavior for existing modules?

maybe not all of that is yet implemented, but maybe there are already
some design concepts, that we might help implement.

regards,
stefan

Stefan,
    Thanks for emailing the list.  Right now, there is no api for
modules or api to connect to our services (other than calling our
actions and taglibs directly).  Both of these things are under design
and in the process of getting some initial code worked out.  Paul Hinze
and myself will be working on a way to drop new modules into the UI.
Matthew Porter is working on an intermediate layer (with security) for
interacting with the other DAOs (data access objects) in our core.
There is plenty to do, and I'm sure we could use some help somewhere.
Matthew, your thoughts?

-Matt
