Rainbow History
The Rainbow project is an open source initiative to build a comprehensive content management system using Microsoft's ASP.NET and C# technology. A VB version is also available.
Rainbow, available today in 14 languages, allows content authoring to be safely delegated to role-based team members who need little or no knowlege of HTML. Rainbow optionally supports a two-step approval-publish process. 45 plug-in modules are now included in the standard release, including support for an e-store, XML news feeds, Flash, Maps, Newsletter, Surveys, Forums, Document Management, Custom Lists, and more. It's also fairly easy to build your own custom modules using the guidelines provided on the Developer Documentation page.
Rainbow has received more than 11,217 downloads to date and is already in production at many commercial internet and intranet sites. To find out more about rainbow and it's contributors (Total-Ingenuity, Duemetri etc please visit www.rainbowportal.net)
Below is a history of all the changes that have been done to the rainbow portal solution since it began as an open source project:

In the old way custom pages cannot have custom settings.
Current way to add register module (still ok)

- Your control must implement IEditUserProfile interface
- Your control may or may not be compiled with Rainbow (it can be in its own dll)
- On Portalsettings select you control from the menu.
Using custom settings:
- You must register your control as a standard module
- Add it to a page (hidden usually)

Refer to gateway/shipping documentation for a list of valid properties.
Known Limit: Even if the MarchantManager table has a Portal ID the module does changes site wide.
- ENH: ECOMMERCE: Gateway and Shipping selection is made trough a nice drop down list.
1.3.0.1751b - 4/11/2003
by john.mandia at totalingenuity.com
- Fix: Country Drop Down is now in correct aplhabetical order on RegisterFull, E-Commerce Page and On Site Settings (Thank you Manu for updating Esperantus :D to allow sorting)
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=759955&group_id=66837&atid=515929
- Fix: On fresh Db builds country list now appears (I have updated the localize script to include rb_Localize info)
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=833603&group_id=66837&atid=515929
- Minor Fix: Commented out an entry in Country script (Country TP entry) as it didn't have any values and caused a blank entry to appear in the country drop down menu.
- Fix: Bad BankGateway.dll reference (This should now be fixed)
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=833251&group_id=66837&atid=515929
- Bug Closed: PortalSecurity.Security - Access Denied throws errors (This has been resolved via the error handler...if you see the access denied error instead of the friendly page please check web.config settings (you may be browsing locally)
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=791976&group_id=66837&atid=515929
- Bug Closed: Query Strings Corrupted by URL Rewriting
If you wish to pass query strings to a module on DesktopDefault.aspx please Use the urlbuilder and pass the values via customAttributes e.g. customAttributes = "CustomerID=44" or for
multiple values: customAttributes would equal "CustomerID=44/ParentCompanyID=1/ThirdOption=This".
If you are passing querystrings to a custom page....e.g. from a module to customfolder/mycustompage.aspx then still use urlbuilder to pass this custom url. You pass it as tagetPage to url builder e.g. "~/customfolder/custompage.aspx" The "/" in the targerpage
will let UrlBuilder know that it is not DesktopDefault and will build the url appropriately.
To pass a querystring to this targetpage please still use customAttributes with the same format e.g. 1 querystring would be "CustomerID=44" and two would be "CustomerID=44/ParentCompanyID=1" and three would be "CustomerID=44/ParentCompanyID=1/ThirdOption=This".
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=827537&group_id=66837&atid=515929
- ENH: Another HeaderMenu enhancement. I noticed that this control binds oninit which is great because you simply drop it on a page and set the properties. However if you wish to use it in a module, your settings (Via the property page) will never
be applied as it takes either the settings hardcoded or the defaults. I added an extra property DataBindOnInit and moved the binding code from OnInit to DataBind (but kept a call to DataBind within OnInit). This property lets you simply say DataBindOnInit=false (true is the default) when you add it to your module (Then in the module's codebehind file you can call DataBind() after your custom settings have been applied.
So now you can decide if you wish it to bind automatically or when you call DataBind().
-Note: For those of you creating a fresh db I recommend waiting for Manu's additions to the solutions bug (related tables & sps are not in new db's and will create an error when you try to add a new portal). Please rebuild the solution to ensure that you have the correct dlls (Mine are .Net 1.1).
1.3.0.1751a - 1/11/2003
by john.mandia at totalingenuity.com
- Fix: After allow no new registrations is ticked people could not edit their profile
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=799945&group_id=66837&atid=515929
- ENH: Made TabKeyPhrase Setting Localized and Created a TabKeyPhrase Module so users can add it to certain tabs or show on all tabs (via the property setting).
Added it's entry in the xml file so it is installed on fresh builds (Please install it via admin all if you are using a current version).
- ENH: Added rb_PageKeyPhrase to all theme's css file (To control the format of the keyphrase. Entry currently empty).
- Fix: Fixed minor bug on baby blue theme
- Fix: Minor fix on DiscussionEdit.aspx (Added runat=server tag to HEAD)
- Fix: Rose background in FreeTextBox
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=833256&group_id=66837&atid=515929
- Fix: Minor fixes in Blacklist_Install.sql and Newsletter_install.sql, plus some of the other setup scripts to reflect new TabID naming convention
- Fix: Fixed bug which would cause register page to fail on a freshly created database (Edit Profile or Register would fail unless you updated SiteSettings first).
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=833610&group_id=66837&atid=515929
- ENH: Enhanced Header Menu so that you now have more control (Can additionally control visibility of Edit Profile Link, Welcome, LogOff and Save Desktop.
- ENH: Now each portal can have it's own personalised favicon.ico file (Before every portal shared the root one). Just upload your custom favicon to the root of the portal's custom folder e.g. _Rainbow
- Fix: Bug where state would continue to show even if the country had no states. E.g. selecting Italy would show a second dropdown menu (State). If you then selected United Kingdom you would still see the Italian state dropdown which was confusing for users.It now gets hidden if no states are available.
- Temp Bug/Fix: Currently countries do not show on register full and site settings if you create a fresh db. This is because the Localize table is not populated.
As a temporary fix you can transfer the data from the Localize table on an old (upgraded) rainbow db to the freshly installed one. Or you can look at setup script 1.2.8.1505_02.sql; part of it populates the Localize table [please only run the relevant part].
Only do this as an urgent fix as an official one should be released soon.
-Note: Since I run on .Net 1.1 please recompile the dlls ;-)
1.3.0.1751 - 30/10/2003
by Manu

1.3.0.1750a - 30/10/2003
by Manu
- Moved Bank Gateway management to a separate project (available on cvs as well)
Note that I have updated web.config to reflect dll change:
<BankGateways>
<!-- key must match the Name property of the gateway. value="FullClass with namespace,Assembly" -->
<add key="CreditTransfer" value="Rainbow.ECommerce.GatewayCreditTransfer,DUEMETRI.Rainbow.ECommerce.BankGateway.dll" />
</BankGateways>
- FIX: Wrong entry und Culture settings will crash system
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=821922&group_id=66837&atid=515929

by Manu
- Now I use log4net for loaggin/debug actions, new settings on web.config
- clean install without pass trought all updates
- All modules have they own install (even if admin)
- Clean installation is done by each module's individual script?
- I have fixed some mistakes in current individual install and completed missing one
- One minor change that can have a deep impact anyway, I tried to make all names consistent across rb
We have a lot of mixed cases and I hope now only few are left... The bigger trouble was with Id
sometimes written ID, ID id.... so I have changed all in a consistent way
Pascal or CamelCase (public or private) for all, code and procedures: PortalID, TabID, and so on
No problem for db, but some properties name are changed.
Nothing too bad... recompile and fix some case and should be enough for custom modules.
Core modules are ok...
- FIX: Fixed an issues with Ecommerce when USD was choosed as currency
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=816080&group_id=66837&atid=515929

1.2.8.1745 - 25/09/2003
by Thierry (thierry at tiptopweb.com.au)
- FIX: user administration, bug causing deletion of registered users
in the 'Manage User' module loading 'RegisterFull.ascx', if we edit one user and
then edit another user, the first user is deleted from the database.
tricky effect of default parameter in rb_UpdateUserFull: set it in the code (RegisterFull.ascx.cs)
instead of relying on SQL stored proc
- FIX: when deleting a role already assigned to some users, there is an exception
modify rb_DeleteRole so that is removed the role for the users first and then remove the role.
1.2.8.1744a - 16/10/2003
by Manu
Setup/Update.asp script UPDATED
- FIX: Runtime error when installing modules in update.aspx.cs
- FIX: Running order of update scripts.
If you have multiple scripts for the same version please read the note:
The version are automatically sorted at runtime so you must remember to increment
the <Version> as well. It is a string value so you may simply append an alpha letter.
If the Ids are equals the versions are compared.
Note that this is a defferen behavior then before, where order was based on script name.
This was necessary because the script name can be omitted now.
- ENH: no more need to run a separate procedure on db. Simple do a clean db and run rainbow.
- ENH: setup.bat does not apply the rbversion script anymore (moved to code)
- ENH: Setup scripts are in a scrollable window now
- FIX: A couple of datareader not closed.

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=761662&group_id=66837&atid=515929
- FIX: SqlDataReader's used in Rainbow are not closed
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=807858&group_id=66837&atid=515929
I have spent a lot of time reviewing all code. I hope I had made no mistakes (sometimes
I had to change the program itself to make it working).
For all developers: please be careful and close all datareader you use, either after
reading and after DataBinding(). http://www.dotnet247.com/247reference/msgs/4/24934.aspx
I hope have not missed one. I have fixed 52 issues in 34 different files.
Please let me know if some was left or if the new code behaves strangley.

- by Mike Stone
EHN: The signin module has a new setting. "Allow IE Autocomplete" If you uncheck this setting
IE will not remember user name and passwords.

only new users and/or computers will honor this.
- Fixed Nant buildfile by Manu
- Updated es resource file by José Viladiu
1.2.8.1743 - 09/10/2003
by Manu
Setup/Update.asp script UPDATED
- New features in update code:
- Version in script is now optional. Update runs a script against db for include the
current version entry. You need manually insert version only if you skip install.
- Script version is checked against code before each run.
This means that you can update many versions with the same script.
Very useful if you want update the initial script that creates the db.
Scenario:
You want provide a convenient way for your users for apply updates and you want
provide a fresh installation script that just do all with few instructions.
You do two scripts.
One, named eg: 1.1.7.0000.sql that creates db structure updated to 1734.
The last row must contain something like:
INSERT INTO [rb_Versions] ([Release],[Version],[ReleaseDate]) VALUES('1734','1.2.8.1734', CONVERT(datetime, '09/11/2003', 101))
GO
One or more scripts as usual for updating existing versions.
At runtime on clean machine present the list of ALL scripts.
Then the 1.1.7.0000.sql runs and updates the version. At this point the row updates tha version.
When setup go to next script it see that this does not need any update and skips it.
On more recent systems (eg: 1730) all updates are run.
- You can now include modules in a single installation. This is great because
we can easily move the code for modules on the module itself. No more need for
refreshing db settings as in 1.2.8.1742.
Please note in the sample below that in version 1.2.8.1743 we can even omit the script
and install only modules.
New syntax:
<Release>
<ID>1742</ID>
<Version>1.2.8.1742</Version>
<Script>1.2.8.1742.sql</Script>
<Date>2003-10-08T00:00:00.0000000+01:00</Date>
</Release>
<Release>
<ID>1743</ID>
<Version>1.2.8.1743</Version>
<Date>2003-10-08T00:00:00.0000000+01:00</Date>
<Modules>
<Installer>DesktopModules/XmlModule/installer.xml</Installer>
<Installer>DesktopModules/Pictures/installer.xml</Installer>
</Modules>
</Release>
If present sql script is always run BEFORE installing modules.
You can make however 2 entries for the same version.
Sample:
<!-- This section is run before -->
<Release>
<ID>1555</ID>
<Version>1.2.8.1555</Version>
<Date>2003-10-08T00:00:00.0000000+01:00</Date>
<Script>1.2.8.1555_before.sql</Script>
<Modules>
<Installer>DesktopModules/XmlModule/installer.xml</Installer>
<Installer>DesktopModules/Pictures/installer.xml</Installer>
</Modules>
</Release>
<!-- This script will be run AFTER MODULE installation -->
<Release>
<ID>1555</ID>
<Version>1.2.8.1555a</Version>
<Script>1.2.8.1555_after.sql</Script>
<Date>2003-10-08T00:00:00.0000000+01:00</Date>
</Release>
Anyway the version are automatically sorted at runtime so
you must remember to increment the <Version> as well. It is a string value
so you may simply append an alpha letter. If the Ids are equals the versions are compared.
Note that this is a defferen behavior then before, where order was based on script name.
This was necessary because the script name can be omitted now.

by Cory Isakson
- added overrides for WebCompile Feature
1.2.8.1736d - 17/09/2003
by Thierry (thierry AT tiptopweb.com.au)
- FIXED: E-Commerce product module
from Mario (thanks!)
problem was: some redirections to the home page from a category without using the url handler
in itemnavigation.cs replace Default.aspx by DesktopDefault.aspx as we are loosing the form parameters
with the server transfer from Default.aspx to DesktopDefault.aspx and not using the UrlBuilder
- FIXED: E-Commerce product module
paging of products is now working (like the picture album)
1.2.8.1736c - 16/09/2003
by Thierry (thierry AT tiptopweb.com.au)
- FIXED : ECommerce-Product module is now working WITHOUT the url builder
(it was redirecting to the home page for any action)
you need to replace in all your DesktopLayout for a shop : shopnavigation (shopnavigatio.cs) control
by itemnavigation control (itemnavigation.cs). itemnavigation derives from menunavigation
but the navigation will not be effective and instead we navigate to the same page
and transmit the TabId as a ItemId (the category of products)
file shopnavigation.cs has been removed from CVS, itemnavigation.cs moved to ECommerce/UI
Apology to Mario (who did this good code coding) and all: I did not realised the change was not in the layout
last minute : there are still some redirections to the home page from a category without using the url handler
1.2.8.1736B - 15/09/2003
cory isakson, added overrides for WebCompile Feature

- added all files from mario AT hartmann.net to project (see below)
also modified history.xml to take new script 1736
- FIXED: Product module rewritten to use events instead of redirections (the dot net way),
this should make it work with framework 1.1
as there is no more parameters to decode from the command line beside the usual TabId and ItemId
- ENH: added webcontrols ProductAddToCart, ProductImageGoToDetails and ProductLinkGoToDetails to be
used in /Design/ProductLayouts
This controls are raising custom events that BUBBLE to this product.ascx control (see OnBubbleEvent)
- NOTE: the ProductAddToCart will NOT work if used in DefaultProductView.ascx
it has been added as a LinkButton with an event handler at the bottom of the html page and is
displayed when displaying a product details
- NOTE: look at the ProductLayouts\DefaultProductLayoutView.ascx and DefaultThumbnailView.ascx
for an example of how to use the new custom controls, you will need to modify your Layouts the same way

1.2.8.1727e - 04/07/2003
by Thierry (Tiptopweb)
- FIX: Switching the DesktopLayout and Theme for an individual page working again :)
This was creating problems within a portal or accross portals
Cache removed in PortalSetting.cs for Hashtable GetTabBaseSettings()
(This is not loosing much on performance as not involving the DB, DB still read with or without cache)
The problem is : we have new settings that were possibly not there with a database
created a while ago (no problem with a database created after the new settings were introduced
when we cache this part of the code, the hashtable is not flushed
Then we read the database to set again the settings, unfortunately for some pages, the settings
does not exist in the database and they will not be reset to an null value (even with the code
added at the end in GetTabCustomSettings()
consequence the values of the settings will stick
the effect will be that a custom Layout for example will persist
on pages without a custom layout setting, for a page created in the database
before the introduction of the Custom Layout settings
the problem will be the same with the Metadata and Culture Settings or any future new settings
*** TODO : put back the cache in GetTabBaseSettings() and modify GetTabCustomSettings()
to reset values not found in the database, if this is a better solution
1.2.8.1727d - 04/07/2003
by Thierry (Tiptopweb)
- FIX: move code to switch Layout from DesktopLayout.aspx.cs to PortalSettings
todo: still a bug, as Layout is cached in CustomSettings and layout not reinitialised if empty
1.2.8.1727c - 30/06/2003
- FIX: Changed default connection string to dbo (SQL Authentication)
Refer to http://www.rainbowportal.net/Rainbow/DesktopModules/ArticlesView.aspx?ItemID=36&mid=10440
For changing existing connections strings. Having mixed owners it is not recommended.

1.2.8.1727b - 29/06/2003
- FIX: Bug on optimization. PortalUrlDataType bug caused an infinite loop.
- ENH: Some more optimizations on code.
Cached all frequently accessed data (portalsettings, Tabsetting, Themeslist).
Test measure: from 1,77 (1727) to 0,09 (1727b) per request (seconds)
(Aqtime measurement - your time may be different)
- ENH: Restored DesktopTabsXml. You need to enable it on web.config
1.2.8.1727a - 27/06/2003
by Manu
- Performance gain.
Analyzed code and done some optimizations. Basically on data types.
This should not affect functionality.
Anyway Application test centers says that code moved from
1 avg request per second (1718)
to
12,03 request per second (1727a) on my test machine
- FIX: esperantus. Display name now lookups COUNTRY_CountryInfo.Name.
It avoids conflicts with existing keys.
- FIX: Multiple UI languages with same name allowed even it is not recommended.
Remember that only first one will be looked up.
Anyway having multiple now does not lead to ugly errors.
1.2.8.1727 - 27/06/2003
by Mark
---Fixes---
- changed behavior in Page.cs LoadSetttings() to check for either Add or Edit permissions since everyone was inheriting from EditItemPage

1) keeps track of page hits (view count) for each thread
2) lets you open up an entire thread in its own page
3) search module now opens up an entire thread in its own window instead of the page with the discussion module
4) USers can now edit their own posts evven if the DO NOT have Edit permission
1.2.8.1722 - 25/06/2003

by John Mandia (Total-Ingenuity)
Added script 1.2.8.1718.sql to the xml file in setup/scripts as it was creating the views required and was generating an error.
For those who have already gone beyond this number in your version table you may need to run this script manually (Exlude the part where it updates the version table).
1.2.8.1721 - 25/06/2003
by Manu
Enhanced Language switcher
One big problem in previous implementation is the 2 list setting the is not so user-friendly.
List must match, culture must contain only specific cultures, list must match in number...
many ting to remember. An error here and you have to change db manually.
So I decided to do a simpler code for managing cultures.
This will affect essentially language switcher and portal settings.
I have removed almost all properties: I saved only one CULTURELIST.
We have a list, the list has 2 columns: one for ui, one for formatting.
(This follows NET UICulture and Culture)
Something like: it=it-IT;en=en-US
First is ui, second is formatting.
You can do also: it=en-US;en=en-US, keys in italian, formatting in US.
You cannot have duplicate values in first column: en=en-GB;en=en-US is not allowed
or, better, the second one is ignored.
Here it is how lookup should work: Rainbow get a language request.
It may be (in this order)
1) Querystring (lang key)
2) Cookie
3) Browser languages if avaulable (it looks up to find best match - not only first - all vaules are considered)
4) Default value (first in list)
It gets a valid CultureInfo value (invalid values are ignored).
First lookup search for best match. en will match en and no other.
(The List is sortable, position matters).
If not found it tries a more loosely match: if we search for en the first "child" (culture that has en as parent, like en-US) will be returned.
The looked up column is the first one (UI column).
When match is found set UI (keay and content) to first column, formatting culture to second one....
This method give us the freedom of choosing a custom pair.
Consider a specific example of site: usually an user wants a generic English,
maybe with the possibility of choose if it is GB or US.
In language switcher flag can only be specific culture -- there is no "Portuguese" flag,
only Portugal flag or Brazil flag so the name comes from first column but flag can only
come from second one.
My proposal is plain and easy: if you want English, no frill...
simply choose a specific English you like, if you want 2 English
(strange, uncommon but possible) do both specific or one of them specific...,
anyway Language Switcher must follow it.
If you have two English you want they would be different.
So, considering only first column you may have two rows: en/en-US or en/en-GB
It seems to me flexible and quite simple to implement and manage...
I getting some weird problem with GUI interface (in attach a preview) so I downgraded it
to single string... just for have it working quickly..., GUI interface is available for testing.
Dig in to the portal setting code to find it ;)
Note: Most of this code was moved to esperantus. You can use it on any site.
-FIX: Removed VS 2003 solution. If you want to use VS 2003 just open 2002 solution and convert it.
Sorry but I CANNOT KEEP IN SYNC 2 solutions.
-FIX: Removed secure/gateway email. It is not finished and give errors when compiled with mk.bat.
1.2.8.1720e - 24/06/2003
by Mario
- ENH: I have added new features in SimpleMenu module (ItemMenu, same behavior like ShopNavigation but can bind to all bindings.)
(the hardcoded use of DesktopLayout MenuMSShop in DesktopDefault.aspx.cs already have been removed)
- ENH: The Dhtml Menu now work with stylesheet, therefor i have changed the HWMenu control and HVMenu javascript.
- ENH: In the LanguageSwitcher module i have added the possibility to hide the Labels behind the Flags.
*********************** IMPORTANT ******************
You are now able to itemize or categorize content in all modules using the itemId parameter like the Product module.
Be carefull adding the Dhtml menus on a deskoplayout always including a dhtml menu, it will fail (there can be only one HVMenu.)
****************************************************
1.2.8.1720d - 24/06/2003

by John Mandia (Total-Ingenuity)
-ENH: Used the new Ballon Settings added by Manu to add the English Name and Description to some of the MetaSettings I added earlier (TabTitle, TabUrlKeyword,
TabMetaKeyWords, TabMetaDescription, TabMetaEncoding, TabMetaOther & TabKeyPhrase) for PortalSettings.cs and TabSettings.cs.
-Note: Please check the reference for Esperantus when you are compiling as it is dependant on where rainbow is on your system. Check the references folder in
VS.NET to see that it can see the dll. If not you will need to re-reference it.
1.2.8.1720a - 21/06/2003
by Thierry (Tiptopweb)
- ENH: DesktopLayout / Themes can be set differently on EACH tab (Tab Settings)!
If nothing is set, the DesktopLayout / Themes of the portal are used
The desktopLayout swich is in DesktopDefault.aspx
The Theme switch is in PortalSettings when getting the CurrentTheme
(the theme is not optimal as the theme file will be read for each module instead of being read
once when reading portalsettings - nothing is changed if you do not use the theme settings on a tab)
- FIX: removed from DesktopDefault.aspx the switch in Layout for the Shop
*********************** IMPORTANT ******************
If you are using a Products module: you will need to set an appropriate DesktopLayout for the shop
on the tab holding the Product module : for example MenuMsShop (it is using shopnavigation instead of menunavigation)
This is because it is not hardcoded anymore in DesktopDefault.aspx :)
****************************************************

Added GatewayManager.
Now gateways can be simply added to web.config, even in different dll.
*********************** IMPORTANT CHANGE **********************************
- ENH: I have changed the way resources are stored.
This is a big step in semplifying the resource management.
Now you can simply comple Rainbow using visual studio.
No need for a separate compilation for resources.
These are the changes:
1) The localized resources are stored in Rainbow.resources.dll and no more on Language.resources.dll
2) Resources are compiled using Visual Studio.
You may still use the updated compileme.bat in Resource folder to compile resources
without the need of visual studio.
3) Installer manages these resources automatically.
4) You must upgrade you web.config if you use manual configuration:
AssemblyName=Rainbow.dll;KeysSubStore=Rainbow.Resources.Rainbow;
5) If you add a new resource file in Resources for support a new language
you must remember to add to VS project.
6) Esperantus data layer is pluggable so you do not see any other change.
- FIX: I have upgraded Esperantus.dll to the lates version 1.0.2.0382.
This includes:
ENH: New setting: AutoLearnIgnoreSaveErrors
ENH: New setting: AutoLearnIgnoreEmptyKeys
ENH: New setting: ConvertToUpper. Keys are transformed in Upper case.
FIX:Avoid recursion in KeyResourceManager GetAllKey fallback feature
- I have added also the localized resources in esperantus.

by Manu
- *********************** IMPORTANT CHANGE **********************************
From version 1718 Rainbow use Esperantus as localization engine.
All Rainbow.Globalization code is now on Esperantus.
Esperantus is an indepentent project, Open source
http://sourceforge.net/projects/esperantus/
Esperantus can be used in non-Rainbow sites.
Esperantus configuration can be found on web.config - Esperantus section
You MUSTchange you configuration path to your language stores.
KeysSubStore=Rainbow;Path=C:\Dev\CVSROOT\Rainbow\Resources;
FilesPrefix=Rainbow"
/>
AssemblyName=C:\Dev\CVSROOT\Rainbow\bin\Language.dll
must point ot language dll in your bin dir
Path=C:\Dev\CVSROOT\Rainbow\Resources
must point to Resources dire on your Rainbow dir
I have made the needed changes on Rainbow.
If you have custom code you have to do some changes:
<%@ Import Namespace="Esperantus" %>
becomes
<%@ Import Namespace="Esperantus" %>
using Esperantus;
becomes
using Esperantus;
<%@ Register TagPrefix="tra" Namespace="Esperantus.WebControls" Assembly="Rainbow" %>
becomes
<%@ Register TagPrefix="tra" Namespace="Esperantus.WebControls" Assembly="Esperantus" %>
Esperantus.WebControls.xxx (all controls)
becomes
Esperantus.WebControls.xxx (all controls)
Rainbow.Globalization.Localize.GetCurrentLanguage()
becomes
Esperantus.Localize.GetCurrentUINeutralCultureName()
GetCurrentLanguage was used for retrieve the current language of the ui, in Esperantus
this is more precise. It exposes GetCurrentUINeutralCultureName() and GetCurrentNeutralCultureName()
Rainbow.Globalization.Localize.GetCurrentRegion()
becomes
Esperantus.CountryInfo.CurrentCountry
Esperantus now has a dedicated object for manage Countries infos.
Esperantus.CountryInfo.Current tries to get a valid country from CurrentLanguage culture.
If a Country that matches current Culture cannot be found a null value is returned.
GetCountries and GetStates are now modified. They return now an array of CoutryInfo objects.
The list has no changes. Data are still get from SQL database befcause Esperantus
supports custom conutries lists. You will see no changes in RegisterFull.acx control bahavior.
A new view named: Esperantus_CountryList provides the list. Database is defined in Esperantus section
in web.config. Be sure CountryRegionsStoreParameters matches your SQL database (this connection string
is totally independent from you main connection string and gives you a great flexibility).
Resources now are store on Resurce folder in Ms resx xml format.
You compile resources using complang.bat - open file and be sure that path is pointing to
you current Net Framework environment.
SQL Localize table is not removed. Anyway it is not used.
Esperantus Autolearn adds keys in your Resource/Rainbow.resx file.
Use Esperantus tools for mange resources in *.resx format.
You can import/export from/to Access mdb file.

1.2.8.1714d - 25/05/2003
By Jes1111
- *********************** IMPORTANT CHANGE **********************************
Auto placement of Signin and LanguageSwitch modules disabled. Use new
"ShowEverywhere" setting on first placed instance of either module
to make them show up on all pages. For the Signin module, set its view
permissions to Unauthenticated Users and Admins + uncheck All Users.
Since you won't get a signin module showing up when you first run Rainbow
after this update, use Rainbow/Admin/Logon.aspx to signin as Admin.
IMPORTANT: we need to produce a script or whatever to add a Signin module
to the first tab of a fresh portal -- can someone help me with this? I'm
a complete klutz in the SQL department.
***************************************************************************
- Signin (all flavours) and LanguageSwitcher modules are now regular
placeable modules -- associated settings have been removed from Site Settings.
Note that LangList, CultureList, LangLock and LangUser are still in the
Site Settings table, since they are needed/useful even if you only run
one language. LanguageSwitcher documentation will be updated soon.
- Modified SettingsTable so it now orders and groups Portal and
Module settings insteading of showing one big list. Groups and order within
Groups is set by specifying in the constructor. New SettingItem property Group
and enumerator SettingItemGroup. Site Settings and shared Module settings have been
modified to group properly. I've modified HtmlModule to show how it is done for
a module, but I'm delaying updating all the other modules pending some other
forthcoming changes. Any module that has not been updated to use the new
scheme will look "a bit messy" on its settings screen, but it all still works.
Group headings are "localized", but waiting for Esperantus to enter translations,
so the text key shows up at the moment.
- Added "Print this..." button. Activated in Module Settings. Core stuff is solid,
but so far I've only done a minimal implementation of the actual print page.
PrintHeader and PrintFooter templates added to all Layouts. If you
have a custom layout, you'll need to duplicate from a standard layout as a starting
point. Print button image added to all Themes (plus some others). Seems to work
for all the modules I've tried, although "active" modules, i.e. with edit links, etc
showing break if you click the link in the print page. Even works for shortcuts if
you set the Print button "on" in the original.
- Added "Back" button - this is for modules which can change their view - of which
there are none at the moment! My forthcoming XML Item Manager uses it.
- Some code added, but commented out for the moment, to implement "Email this..." and
"Help" buttons. I'll be discussing these in the list.
- Some interior changes to XmlLangModule - still functions the same.
- Modified GetPortalCustomSettings() in PortalSettings.cs, so it doesn't read in
"rogue/redundant" settings -- this seemed safer than producing a script to delete
them from db. Thoughts?

- By John Mandia:
- Removed hardcoded values for table width and alignment and the body tag
So that it can be controlled 100% by your themes. Table now has
a css reference and is wrapped by a div tag (for browser compatibility).
- There are two groups of css styles added to the css file (You need to add this to your custom themes).
1) .rb_DefaultLayoutDiv & .rb_DefaultLayoutTable
2) .rb_AlternateLayoutDiv & .rb_AlternateLayoutTable
Group 1 is used on general pages and Group 2 is used on Admin Pages
(In case you wish to have more width for your admin pages)
- I have added a new theme MSDefault76 where it demonstrates a width of 76% centered
(Please not if you place objects that are bigger than that then it will stretch).
I have also updated all the old themes so that they still appear the same (width 100%).

By Jes1111
- New module CacheViewer - for admin/dev use to see contents of Rainbow cache.
Shows key, size and contents (sorted by key). Add to any page, but remember
that Admin user will not add anything to cache so you need to log out to see it happening.
- Changed Module CacheKey to add PortalAlias - helps identify modules in CacheViewer in
multi-portal setup.
- New module XmlLangModule - extension of original XML/XSLT module, but works with
LanguageSwitcher. Full documentation to follow. Includes new XslHelper.cs which is
passed in to XSLT to give access to selected Rainbow methods and properties.
Sales2.xml and Sales2.xsl in _Rainbow/xml folder demonstrate functionality - set
LangList="en;fr;pt" and CultureList="en-US;fr-FR;pt-PT" in Site Settings.
NOTE: Module Title not localized (yet).
- Improved cache behaviour: CacheTime=-1 is now a legitimate value, rather than a
happy accident.
- Added bool "Cacheable" property to modules - forces CacheTime to -1 to prevent caching
of all instances of module type. See PortalSearch.ascx.cs for demonstration of disabling
caching. No DB update - "Cacheable = false" is hard-coded into module code. Also disables
CacheTime field on ModuleSettings page. Use when module type should never be cached.
- Fixed Designer problem with Cache (reported in Forum).

PortalSettings.cs, DesktopPanes.cs and web.config files.
Enables fine-grained control of UI language, content language
culture-sensitive formatting, for single- as well as multiple-
language portals. PDF document in /DeskTopModules explains all.
Demonstration language-sensitive XML/XSL module coming soon!
- Related to above, new folder "images/flags" in application root.
- Related changes to cache behavior to support multiple languages.
- NOTE: I've had to temporarily disable caching of portalSettings:
classic Catch-22 situation until static data is separated from
dynamic data.

iso-8859-1 does not appear to support the Euro symbol. See comment
in web.config file.
- Added DesktopTabsXml (XPathDocument) property to PortalSettings. This
is an indirect serialization of the existing DesktopTabs property. It
has no use at present unless you want to implement a third-party menuing
system as I have, but it might be interesting for others to look at.

Rainbow.config file.

- I've fixed smtg in Tab and TabLayout (admin) modules that
has been annoying me for sometime.
You know when you hit the up or down arrow in these pages,
module or tabs' order is changed. But the selection gets lost.
In other words if you want to move a tab to TWO upper levels, you need to
1. Select the tab from the list
2. Hit the up button
3. Select the tab AGAIN
4. Hit the up button
It gets really annoying if you need to move a tab all the way up/down in the list.
1.2.8.1505 - 05/03/2003

provided translations on db (no autotranslation like google, it
inserts the text that the module creator defines)

- New webconfig key:
- Great changes on db, you cannot go back!
Look ad DBinstall folder.
The files are zipped to prevent CVS changes!
- Install 1.1.x - This is for new database only
- Upgrade 1.1.x to 1.2.8.1505 - Upgrade to this version.
IMPORTANT: The upgrade cannot be repeated safely.
BACKUP YOUR DB, take notice of any ERROR (ignore warnings)
and post on forums any problem.
From now on all patches will be intended for upgrading one
version to another.
- The patch drops [rblang_Language] table. Save any custom data
BEFORE applying the patch.

URL Management

- Fixed some strange issues with URL builder. Now should work fine
and in a more consistent way.
- Moved url handling code from httphandler to httpurlmodule so
that all code for managing urls is in a same place.
- Fixed complex url handling (dir + page), now passes all attributes correctly
- Fixed Menu navigation for third level menu and mode (run dbpatch)
- Fixed nasty bug on Title and urlbuilder, now porperty page for the editor works nicely
Localization
- Fixed language attribute in querystring. Now it is passed correctly
in all pages that use urlbuilder.
- Added new localizable controls the automatically lookup translation
No need for separate translation routines: just use the new label
or literal control and set the TextKey property
Modules
- New articles module (still unfinished)
Pages
- Changed the way title checks if show buttons. Now it is tested the url only.
- Predefined text for button is provided so you have to change only if different.
Property URL is built in so is always shown.
If you want to hide in some module you should set the URL as empty.
- Page.cs completely rewritten for a better performance. Now the elements
are retrieved only if needed. Many changes in derivate classes to conform
to new page implementation. Can be some little bug. Please let me know if something is wrong.
The OnUpdate / OnEdit / OnDelete method was modified to pass EventArgs
Html Edit
- Rewritten HTML edit module, now you can select your favourite editor by a menu!
- Rewritten HTML edit module to use new ActiveUP control (binary licensed to rainbow: thanks Cory!!)
- Rewritten HTML edit module to use new Yahe control (source included wit permission).
Cory changes:
- New Active up HTML editor. Professional editor licensed to Rainbow.
Tabsettings and page
John Mandia changes:
- New table TabSettings and new classes for add/edit custom tab settings
- New head implementation in page.cs supporting css, metadata
and other search engines facilities. All settings can be
modified per portal base (defaults for all the portal) and per
tab basis if needed.
There are two settings in tab custom settings you might not understand
TabKeyPhrase and TabUrlKeyword
TabUrlKeyword is to give people the option of having a keyword added
to their url helps people distinguish sections easier and makes
search engines index better (only slightly though) so if one tab
was about us you could enter about-us then when someone
goes to the url it is more recognisable
TabKeyPhrase is a bit trickier, the reason for this is again
search engine optimisation and this one is for theme builders
the TabKeyPhrase is to go at the top of the page just after body
or close after before any script or code etc.
The reason being that search engines give priority to where text
is placed if you have your keyphrase at the top it will read it
first and think it is the main thing the page is about
www.pharmaceutical-industry.info on my current site it is used on
every page before the tables etc and it looks like part of the site.

1.1.8.1330 - 30/01/2003
- Breadcrumbs update Ver. 1.1 - 31. jan 2003 by jes
I made some crude changes to the breadcrumbs control.
First, there was a problem that it didn't pick up the TabIndex, so I changed that.
Plus, I didn't like that it made the current page a clickable link, so I changed that.
Then I wanted it in a table so I could control it's formatting a bit more,
so I changed it from a simple placeholder to a table.

It disappears magically if the user has logged in.
