[0:34] <midnightmonster> Helma6, not easily[0:35] <midnightmonster> helma maps one table row to one object
[0:35] <midnightmonster> so if the procedure returns data from multiple tables, it would be very hard to impossible
[0:36] <midnightmonster> but if it can return a set of ids of a single table, you can write a little wrapper to grab the HopObjects for each ID as needed

[13:04] <simono> daniel, i'm also interested in a python plugin for helma.. could help you convert php to pyhon code
[13:04] <simono> .. i think it was u talking about jython a couple o days back
[15:58] <peter_12> I posted some details about xpkg

[16:29] <daniel> simono, i am currently trying to find out if and how far jsr-223 (javax.script) is able to simplify the implementation of future scripting language plugins
[16:31] <daniel> once that is finished, and once i finished to improve the implementation of helma's scripting language interface (like providing common features in abstract classes), i will continue on implementing new scripting language plugins
[16:32] <daniel> and as i spent some time yesterday reading about python, i am pretty sure python will be the next one (-:
[18:06] <osimons> hi again, daniel - the securityManager trick worked nicely, but discovered an issue with the getApplication() helper that i can't quite figure out. left some notes here about it, but think you were offline then - see http://helma.zumbrunn.com/hopbot/2008-08-26
[18:08] <osimons> when returning adding extra debug print in getApplication(), the only classes i see are: java.net.URLClassLoader@8558d2 (and sporadically sun.misc.Launcher$ExtClassLoader@a12a00 and org.mozilla.javascript.DefiningClassLoader@376afa)
[18:09] <osimons> with my (very) limited java knowledge i don't really know how class information is read and evaluated wrt comparisons and lookups
[18:34] <osimons> daniel: btw, tried your php plugin but that reports "Error in application welcomePhp. Bad version number in .class file" - must be something i did when 'installing' the plugin, i suppose
[18:49] <zumbrunn> osimons, which getApplication helper are you talking about?
[18:49] <zumbrunn> and can you provide example code how securityManager is actually to be used?
[18:50] <zumbrunn> then I could maybe figure out how to document it
[18:54] <zumbrunn> ok, google is my friend
[19:49] <daniel> osimons, "Error in application welcomePhp. Bad version number in .class file" sounds like your JRE is too old. is it 1.6?
[19:50] <daniel> the php plugin has been compiled for JRE 1.6 only, maybe i should add a note somewhere
[20:07] <daniel> the HelmaSecurityManager seems to be broken
[20:08] <daniel> not even the intended default behavior (not being able to exit the JVM or setting a new security manager) seems to work
[20:33] <daniel> please file a bug report, i will try fix it tomorrow!
