They would get the faulty component, let\'s say the hard drive, swapped out and begin anew: reloading the OS, and adding back to the domain, waiting for the My Docs sync to complete, installing the necessary apps, and waiting for Outlook to pull down all the email messages.\r\n\r\nTo say this can take time, would be a vast understatement.\r\n\r\nThere is an easier way, and as the time approaches for New Year\'s resolutions, I\'m proposing one.\r\n\r\n<strong>Have a good working backup hard drive on standby that is no more than a week old.</strong>\r\n\r\nThis can be accomplished (setup, tested and verified) in just a few easy steps with <a title=\"Symantec System Recvoery 2011\" href=\"http://www.symantec.com/business/system-recovery-desktop-edition\" target=\"_blank\">Symantec System Recovery 2011</a>.\r\n\r\n<strong>STEP 1</strong>\r\n\r\nDownload Symantec System Recovery 2011. They have a free 60 day trial, that will allow you to back up your laptop and get the ball rolling. I highly recommend purchasing the full version and using all the bells and whistles.\r\n\r\n<strong>STEP 2</strong>\r\n\r\nInstall Symantec System Recover 2011, reboot, then open Symantec System Recovery and run Live Update to ensure you’re on the latest code level.\r\n\r\n<strong>STEP 3</strong>\r\n\r\nPlug up the external (backup) hard drive, open Symantec System Recovery, click on <strong>View</strong>, <strong>Tools</strong> and select <strong>Copy My Hard Drive</strong>. Perform a copy job with local C: as the source and external hard drive as the destination, and be sure to select the following check boxes to ensure you have a good working copy on the other side:\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Check source for file system errors</li>\r\n	<li>Check destination for file system errors</li>\r\n	<li>Set drive active (for booting OS)</li>\r\n	<li>Disable SmartSector copying</li>\r\n	<li> CopyMBR</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n <strong>STEP 4</strong>\r\n\r\nOnce the copy job is complete. Shutdown your laptop, remove the laptop hard drive and swap in your new backup copy drive. Boot up your system and confirm that you boot into the OS normally.\r\n\r\nAt this point you should be on your system like you normally are accustomed to when you log in. Essentially, You have verified that your backup copy is good to go. You can either swap the hard drive back to the original config or you can carry on as is.\r\n\r\n<strong>STEP 5</strong>\r\n\r\nSet a weekly reminder in your calendar to repeat STEP 3 and you\'ll be on your way to bulletproof failback plan for your laptop moving forward. \r\n\r\n&nbsp;','HOW TO BACKUP AND TEST RESTORE IN A FEW EASY STEPS','','publish','open','open','','how-to-backup-and-test-restore-in-a-few-easy-steps','','','2011-11-22 21:06:29','2011-11-22 21:06:29','',0,'http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/?p=5463',0,'post','',0),(5465,2,'2011-11-16 19:11:21','2011-11-16 19:11:21','<strong>Charleston, SC - November 16, 2011 - eGroup, Inc. has been asked by VMware to participate in their Technical Advisory Board (PTAB).

Using Windows native compression format, Cabinet (or CAB for short), the compressed files are more like mini-installation programs with the compressor including support for license files, prompt windows, and the launch of other applications when extraction is finished. Configuration and creation of an executable is an easy step-by-step process handled via the IExpress Wizard. At the end of the wizard, the option to save your configuration as a Self Extraction Directive file (or SED for short) is available.  These SED files can be loaded at the start of the wizard or supplied as arguments in the Windows command line, negating the need to complete the wizard twice for the same file. The command line support also makes iexpress.exe perfect for automated tasks via batch files or in custom software.\n\nWhile iexpress is a great and convenient tool, there is also a few downsides one should be aware of before using it as a solution. For example, a default folder to extract to cannot be defined for the executable and must always be entered in manually before extracting. Also, an executable created with the 64-bit version of the application cannot be decompressed on 32 bit architecture.\n<h3>Tutorial</h3>\n<a href=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/iexpress_2.png\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-5471\" src=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/iexpress_2-300x213.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"213\" /></a> For a quick tutorial, we will run through the process of using the wizard to create our first executable, saving our chosen configuration as an SED file, and creating a batch file that make uses of this SED configuration to automatically generate all future executables...\n<ol>\n	<li>Run <strong>iexpress.exe</strong> from the command line.

It\'s not hard to make work-- in fact, rather simple-- but once you go down to the hypervisor level, there seems to be much confusion and little detail available from Cisco or otherwise.\r\n\r\nFirst, it\'s important to understand what \"direct attach storage\" means in the Cisco UCS context. If you were to take your storage array (only a handful of them are certified by Cisco for this deployment mind you) and connect it directly in to the Cisco UCS Fabric Interconnects, it would be considered a \"direct attach\" deployment. This type of connectivity uses \"Appliance\" ports, which you simply configure though the UCS Manager by select the desired interface, and \"Configure as Appliance port\".\r\n\r\nWith this configuration, you must create the necessary VLAN under the \"LAN\" tab within the UCSM below BOTH the \"Appliance\" VLAN section, and the \"LAN\" VLAN section. This is required-- as all \"Appliance\" ports pin to a traditional \"uplink\" port, and if the VLAN does not exist on the uplink, the Appliance port will not come up. This is what provides the capability for communication to other storage ports in a \"non-optimal\" flow of traffic (see image below).\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nTo help minimize the amount of traffic that flows up the uplinks and \"over\" to the other Fabric Interconnect to access storage ports, we decided to use separate VLANs/subnets from within vSphere, and made sure our NICs were configured on the appropriate Fabric Interconnect. For those who are not familiar, when you create your virtual NICs for your service profiles, you select which Fabric Interconnect you\'d like for them to be associated with. You also choose if you want to enable Fabric Failover (a feature I blogged about a ways back). In our case, we created vNIC 1 on Fabric Interconnect A. Then we used Subnet A with that specific vNIC to access the storage processor ports, also on that subnet. Then we did the opposite with Subnet B.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Cisco UCS - DIRECT ATTACH STORAGE - EMC VNX - vSphere 5!','','draft','open','open','','','','','2011-12-19 18:42:49','2011-12-19 18:42:49','',0,'http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/?p=5615',0,'post','',0),(5494,6,'2011-11-22 18:45:52','2011-11-22 18:45:52','If you are not backing up your laptop, then consider for a second what you would do if your hard drive died within the next 5 minutes.\n\nMany have no plan.

significantly easier, and domain reports can be run in seconds.\n\nThe PowerGUI website also offers great videos and tutorials for anyone wishing to learn everything there is to know about this great product.  Check it out today!\n\n&nbsp;\n\n&nbsp;','PowerGUI - Great Tool for Windows Administrators Who Want to Use PowerShell','','inherit','open','open','','5538-autosave','','','2011-11-28

they receive unneccessary security warnings, and in turn nothing annoys a System Adminisrator more than an irrated user.  Such was the case recently when a customer asked for assistence with preventing Internet Explorer from prompting users when they attemped to launch executables from an internal website.  The System Administrator knew these files were safe, and his fellow employees were growing restless after continually being pestered with \"Security Risk\" warnings.  The solution was to enable a few helpful GPO settings that added the intranet site to the IE \"Intranet Tusted Zone\".\n\nThe necessary settings can be found in Computer Configuration/Policies (Windows Server 2008)/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Internet Explorer/Internet Control Panel/Security Page.  From here specific sites can be listed in the \"Site to Zone Assignment\" setting, or Windows can add all Intranet Sites automatically (not as seure but easier to manage) by enabling \"Intranet Sites: Include all local (intranet) sites not listed in other zones\".  Also, \"Intranet Sites: Include all network paths (UNCs)\", and/or \"Intranet Sites: Include all sites that bypass the proxy server\" can be enabled.  Just make sure to read the descriptions carefully before enabling these settings, and also test beforehand if possible.\n\n&nbsp;','Prevent Users From Getting an IE Security

This is normal with any new software release, particularly with a platform that supports a complex and rich API for plug-in and app development. To help make the power of the ZCS 6 API available to the general development community, we\'ll be expanding on some of the basic tutorials in the Zimbra Wiki and providing more detailed knowledge of some of the common features you will want to implement in one of your Zimlets. This article will focus on creating a Tab Applications that provides real world functionality in the Main Content, Toolbar, and Overview areas. <!--more-->\r\n\r\nIf you are new to Zimlet Development or have absolutely no idea what Zimbra is, we recommend visiting the <a href=\"http://www.zimbra.com/about/\" target=\"_blank\">VMWare Zimbra website</a> and reading the <a href=\"http://wiki.zimbra.com/index.php?title=ZCS_6.0:Zimlet_Developers_Guide:Introduction\" target=\"_blank\">ZCS 6.0 Developers Guide</a> before reading the tutorial. A good starter guide on the basic\'s of a Tab Application can be found at <a href=\"http://blog.zimbra.com/blog/archives/2010/01/adding-tab-applications-to-the-zimbra-web-client.html\" target=\"_blank\">Adding Tab Applications to the Zimbra Web Client</a> While we will be briefly going over some of the basics, we are going to assume that you have a basic understanding of Zimlet development, the structure of a Zimlet package and an in-depth understanding of JavaScript, HTML, XML and CSS.\r\n\r\nTo illustrate a real world example, we\'ll be using code segments from one of our Zimlets, built for the purpose of displaying the weekly schedules of our engineers and technical consultants. The names have been changed to protect the innocent\r\n<h2>Zimbra Definition File</h2>\r\nThe first step in Zimlet creation is defining your Zimlet Definition File, an XML file that defines the core behavior of the Zimlet and the resources included in the Zimlet package. If you wanted to implement your Zimlet as a content or panel Zimlet or create context menus, you would do so with XML elements in your Zimlet Definition File. The concept of the file is very similar to an Android Manifest file for any Droid developers out there. A complete reference of the file\'s structure can be found at <a href=\"http://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/ZCS_6.0:Zimlet_Developers_Guide:Zimlet_Definition_File_Reference\" target=\"_blank\">Zimlet Definition File Reference</a>.\r\n\r\nWith a Tab application, implementation is done in the JavaScript code itself and thus, we only need to list our files and resources that are in the Zimlet package in our definition file\r\n<pre>&lt;zimlet name=\"com_schedule_example\" version=\"1.3\" description=\"Example of a Schedule Zimlet\"&gt;\r\n    &lt;include&gt;com_schedule_example.js&lt;/include&gt;\r\n    &lt;includeCSS&gt;master.css&lt;/includeCSS&gt;\r\n    &lt;handlerObject&gt;com_schedule_example_HandlerObject&lt;/handlerObject&gt;\r\n    &lt;resource&gt;logo.png&lt;/resource&gt;\r\n&lt;/zimlet&gt;</pre>\r\nA few notes about our definition file...\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>The name attribute is the unique name of the Zimlet. Zimbra follows the same naming convention as Java does for it\'s packages. Your final zip file and the definition file itself will both share this name.</li>\r\n	<li>Version is the version of the Zimlet itself.</li>\r\n	<li>Description will show up on the Preferences-&gt;Zimlets tab after the Zimlet has been installed</li>\r\n	<li>com_schedule_example.js is our main Javascript file where the bulk of our Zimlet\'s logic is defined. You are free to break apart your source code into multiple files, each of which can be defined with their own &lt;include&gt; element. Files are loaded in the order of the elements.</li>\r\n	<li>The handlerObject is the \"main\" function of the Zimlet and is a JavaScript class where all the Zimlet\'s life-cycle events are implemented. It is contained in com_schedule_example.js</li>\r\n	<li>Resource elements define any external files needed in your Zimlet (images, plain text, binaries, etc).</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h2>Zimbra Configuration File</h2>\r\nThe Zimlet Configuration File, config_template.xml, defines specific global and host properties that affect the operation of your Zimlet. For the purposes of this tutorial, we don\'t need any special configuration settings, so we will not be providing any example code, but this is, none the less, a very important file. A complete reference of the structure of the file can be found at <a href=\"http://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/ZCS_6.0:Zimlet_Developers_Guide:Zimlet_Configuration_File_Reference\" target=\"_blank\">Zimlet Configuration File Reference</a>\r\n<h2>Creating the Handler Object</h2>\r\nAs mentioned previously, the HandlerObject is where all the Zimlet life-cycle events are defined along with their corresponding logic. To create our HandlerObject, we open up our com_schedule_example.js file and implement a class using the same name defined in our definition file.\r\n<pre>function com_schedule_example_HandlerObject() {\r\n\r\n}</pre>\r\nThis class\'s subclass will be ZmZimletBase so we have access to all the API methods.\r\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype = new ZmZimletBase();\r\ncom_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.constructor = com_schedule_example_HandlerObject;</pre>\r\nNow that we have defined our HandlerObject, we need to implement the three main events of a Zimlet\'s lifecycle: init, appLaunch, and appActive.\r\n<h2>Event: init</h2>\r\nThe init function is the equivalent to the OnCreate event in other platforms and is triggered once during loading of the Zimbra Desktop. This method is where we create our Tab Application via the createApp method. We store the app name returned by the method as a class property for access later on.\r\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.init =\r\n        function() {\r\n            this._AppName = this.createApp(\"Schedule\", \"tabIcon\", \"Display the Engineer and Technical Consulting schedules\");\r\n        };</pre>\r\nA few notes about the arguments of createApp....\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>The first argument is the name that will appear in the tab for the application</li>\r\n	<li>The second argument is the CSS Class that will define the icon in our tab. \"Img\" will be prefixed to the CSS Class at runtime so the actual CSS Class will be \"ImgtabIcon\".</li>\r\n	<li>The final argument defines the message displayed in the tool-tip when you hover over the tab itself.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nWe\'ll also take a moment to define our \"tabIcon\" class in our master.css stylesheet to wrap this up...\r\n<pre>.ImgtabIcon { background: url(\"logo.png\") no-repeat 0 0; width: 16px; height: 16px; overflow: hidden; }</pre>\r\n...so we get a nice professional looking tab...\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_11.png\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5576\" src=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_11.png\" alt=\"Example of Tab\" width=\"569\" height=\"38\" /></a>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Figure 1: Example of a Tab</p>\r\n\r\n<h2>Event: appLaunch</h2>\r\nThe appLaunch event is similar to the OnLoad event in other platforms and is triggered the first time the Tab application is clicked. The event arg, appName, informs the method which Zimlet is triggering the event. We use it in a switch statement to call our logic for only our Zimlet.\r\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.appLaunch =\r\n        function(appName) {\r\n            switch (appName) {\r\n                    case this._AppName: {\r\n                            this._createMainContent();\r\n                            this._createToolbarContent();\r\n                            this._createOverviewContent();\r\n                    }\r\n            }\r\n        };</pre>\r\nInside our case statement, we call three method, each responsible for creating the content for a different part of the anatomy of a Zimlet.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/zimlet-tab-anatomy.png\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5575 aligncenter\" src=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/zimlet-tab-anatomy.png\" alt=\"Anatomy of a Tab Application\" width=\"784\" height=\"496\" /></a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Figure 2: Anatomy of a Tab Application</p>\r\nDetailed explanation of the methods will be provided later.\r\n<h2>Event: appActive</h2>\r\nThe appActive event is a combination of OnPause and OnStart events in other platforms. It is triggered both when the tab for the application is selected and unselected. Like appLaunch, it receives the app name as an event arg, but also a boolean value which informs us of whether or not the Zimlet is active.\r\n\r\n<strong>IMPORTANT: When designing your Zimlet, it is important to know that appActive fires during the initial load of the Zimlet, along side appLaunch. After tracing the stack, it seems it fires BEFORE appLaunch as well. </strong>\r\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.appActive =\r\n        function(appName, active) {\r\n\r\n            switch (appName) {\r\n                case this._simpleAppName: {\r\n\r\n                    if (active)\r\n                        this._createMainContent();\r\n\r\n                break;\r\n                }\r\n            }\r\n        };</pre>\r\nIn our Zimlet, the main content is retreived via a web service, so every time the Zimlet is activated, we want to call the web service and refresh the content. To do this, we check to ensure the Zimlet calling the event is our own and than check to see if the Zimlet is active. If it is, we recreate the main content using our createMainContent method.\r\n<h2>Creating the Main Content</h2>\r\nCreating our Main Content is relatively simple. We get the ZmZimletApp object for our Zimlet and call the setContent method with a string of HTML as an argument. In the context of our Scheduling app, we make a call to a SOAP client that returns a string of HTML representing the schedule. For the sake of brevity, we won\'t go into the details of the SOAP client, but you have our personal assurance that it works!\r\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype._createMainContent =\r\n        function() {\r\n            var app = appCtxt.getApp(globalAppName);\r\n            var html = this._callSOAPClient();\r\n            app.setContent(html);\r\n        }</pre>\r\n<h2>Creating Buttons in the ToolBar</h2>\r\nNow, it\'s time to add Buttons to our ToolBar and things will get a bit more complicated. The logic for accomplishing this will be defined in our createToolbarContent method that we called during appLaunch. Unlike the dynamic content of the Main Content area, the Toolbar buttons will be static and unchanging for the duration of the Zimlet\'s life-cycle and do not need to be recreated during appActive.\r\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype._createToolbarContent =\r\n        function() {\r\n\r\n        }</pre>\r\nThe step in creating buttons in our Toolbar is to get the ZmZimletApp object and the ZmToolBar object itself from ZmZimletApp.\r\n<pre>var app = appCtxt.getApp(appName);\r\nvar toolbar = app.getToolbar();</pre>\r\nFor the context of our scheduling Zimlet, we need two buttons, one that changes the date range for the schedule to a previous 3 week period and another that changes it to the next 3 weeks. To begin we will, create the previous button.\r\n<pre>var prev_button_params = {\r\n     id: \'com_egroup_schedule_prev\',\r\n     text: \'Prev 3 Weeks\',\r\n     image: \'leftArrowIcon\',\r\n     tooltip: \'View the Schedule for the next 3 weeks.\'\r\n}\r\n\r\nvar prev_button = toolbar.createButton(prev_button_params, prev_button_params);</pre>\r\nFirst, we define a hash of our parameters for the buttons. We are using a few basic ones. A detailed list can be found in the ZCS 6.0 API Specifications. A few notes about this...\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>ID is an unique identifier for retrieving the button object via the API</li>\r\n	<li>Text is the display text of the button</li>\r\n	<li>Image is the CSS Class which defines the icon, identical to the tabIcon class we created for our App. \"Img\" is also prefixed to these CSS Classes, making the actual class name at runtime ImgleftArrowIcon</li>\r\n	<li>Tooltip is the message displayed when hovering the button.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nThe params must be supplied as an argument twice to the createButton method. We don\'t fully understand the reasoning behind this or if there is any distinction between the two param arguments. What we can tell you is that omitting one of the arguments will cause a runtime error and including the same set of params as both arguments successfully creates a working button.\r\n\r\nNow, that we have our button created, we need to add a listener event so something magical happens when it is pressed. This is done via assignment of an AjxListener object\r\n<pre> var prev_button_listener = new AjxListener(this, this._eventPrevThreeWeeks);\r\nprev_button.addSelectionListener(prev_button_listener):</pre>\r\nThe first argument in the AjxListener consructor determines which object will call the provided method. In this case, it is the HandlerObject. The second argument is the actual method that is called when the listener is triggered. In our example, it\'s a custom method called eventPrevThreeWeeks. Finally, we call addSelectionListener so the AjxListener is called when the button is selected.\r\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype._eventPrevThreeWeeks=\r\n        function() {\r\n             // Normally, this event would make an SOAPClient call to update our Main Content area with a new schedule that represented the previous three week period, but for the sake of staying on topic, we\'ve removed that code.\r\n        }</pre>\r\nWe repeat the above process to create a next button and the end result looks something like this...\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_2.png\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5583 aligncenter\" src=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_2.png\" alt=\"Two Buttons in a Zimlet Tab Application\'s Toolbar\" width=\"311\" height=\"89\" /></a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Figure 3. Two Buttons in a Tab Application\'s Toolbar</p>\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left\">Adding a TreeView to the Overview</h2>\r\nNow, we have a Main Content area with content and a Toolbar area with buttons, but our Overview is a little bare. For the context of our Zimlet, we need a way to switch back and forth between the schedule for Engineers and for Technical Consultants. We are going to implement this feature as a TreeView in the Overview section.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_3.png\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5584 aligncenter\" src=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_3.png\" alt=\"Example of a Tree View\" width=\"229\" height=\"208\" /></a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Figure 4. Example of a Tree View in an Overview</p>\r\nThe logic for this will be called in the createOverviewContent method we implemented in appLaunch. Much like the Toolbar, this is a static feature and does not need to be recreated via appActive\r\n<pre>com_schedule_example.prototype._createOverviewContent =\r\n        function() {\r\n\r\n        }</pre>\r\nThe first step in the process is to get the ZmZimletApp object and from that, the ZmOverview object.\r\n<pre>var app = appCtxt.getApp(appName);\r\nvar overview = app.getOverview();</pre>\r\nAfter that, we need to create our ZmTreeView object. We pass the object a hash of params. We define the ZmTreeView\'s parent as the ZmOverview object. Don\'t be confused by overviewID. It\'s the unqiue ID for the ZmTreeView object, not the ZmOverview object. We are only using the basic params to create this object. A detailed list is in the ZCS 6.0 API Specifications.\r\n<pre>var treeview = new ZmTreeView({\r\n     parent: overview,\r\n     overviewId: \'com_egroup_schedule_treeview\'});</pre>\r\nNext, we create the dwHeaderTreeItem for our zmTreeView. As a quick note, the API documentation for TreeView suggests there is an alternative way to implement a DwHeaderTreeItem that will be recognized by the getHeaderItem method, but if it exists, it is not listed. As such, we are forced to implement our dwHeaderTreeItem like a dwTreeItem.\r\n<pre>var tree_item_header = new DwtHeaderTreeItem({\r\n     parent: treeview,\r\n     text: \'Schedules\',\r\n     className: \'treeHeader\'\r\n});</pre>\r\nWe set the parent for the DwtTreeitem to the ZmTreeView object, define the display text to be \'Schedules\' and give it an unique CSS Class so it can have it\'s own custom CSS. The CSS Class will have -Text appended onto it during runtime, so the actual CSS Class will be \'treeHeader-Text\'\r\n\r\nNow, we define our two TreeItems, one for Engineers and one for Technical Consultants.\r\n<pre>var tree_item_engineer = new DwtTreeItem({\r\n     parent: treeview,\r\n     text: \'Engineers\'\r\n});\r\n\r\nvar tree_item_tc = new DwtTreeItem({\r\n     parent: treeview,\r\n     text: \'Technical Consultants\'\r\n});</pre>\r\nWe make sure the header is not able to be selected, but the two child items are.\r\n<pre>tree_item_header.enableSelection(false);\r\ntree_item_engineer.enableSelection(true);\r\ntree_item_tc.enableSelection(true);</pre>\r\nThen, we add the all the items to the zmTreeView\r\n<pre>treeview.addChild(tree_item_header);\r\ntreeview.addChild(tree_item_engineer);\r\ntreeview.addChild(tree_item_tc);</pre>\r\nAnd, finally, we add the zmTreeView to the zmOverView.\r\n<pre>overview.setTreeView(treeview.overviewId);</pre>\r\nNow that we have our ZmTreeView , we need to assign it a listener, much like we did with the buttons, so we can fire logic when one of the items is selected.\r\n<pre>var engineer_button_listener = new AjxListener(this, this._eventTreeViewSelected);\r\ntreeview.addSelectionListener(engineer_button_listener);</pre>\r\nThe listener for the ZmTreeView works a little differently than the one for the buttons. Instead of having one method for every dwtTreeItem, we have a single method that receives a hash as an event argument. This hash allows us to determine which dwtTreeItem was selected.\r\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype._eventTreeViewSelected =\r\n        function(ev) {\r\n            if (ev.items.length == 1 &amp;&amp; ev.detail == DwtTree.ITEM_SELECTED) {\r\n                var tree_item = DwtControl.getTargetControl(ev, false);\r\n                if (tree_item.getText() == \'Engineers\' )\r\n                    // Logic to retreive the engineering schedule\r\n                else\r\n                    // Logic to retreive the technical consultants schedule.\r\n            }\r\n}</pre>\r\nTo break down the above, we check to see if the event triggering the method was a dwtTreeItem being selected. If so, we get the actual dwtTreeItem object via getTargetControl and check it\'s display test to determine what dwtTreeItem it is. This allows us to execute the proper code for retrieving the engineering or technical consultant schedule.\r\n\r\nWith it all said and done, we get an Overview that looks like this...\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_4.png\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5588 aligncenter\" src=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_4.png\" alt=\"Example of Custom Overview\" width=\"177\" height=\"207\" /></a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Figure 5.

This method is where we create our Tab Application via the createApp method. We store the app name returned by the method as a class property for access later on.\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.init =\n        function() {\n            this._AppName = this.createApp(\"Schedule\", \"tabIcon\", \"Display the Engineer and Technical Consulting schedules\");\n        };</pre>\nA few notes about the arguments of createApp....\n<ul>\n	<li>The first argument is the name that will appear in the tab for the application</li>\n	<li>The second argument is the CSS Class that will define the icon in our tab. \"Img\" will be prefixed to the CSS Class at runtime so the actual CSS Class will be \"ImgtabIcon\".</li>\n	<li>The final argument defines the message displayed in the tool-tip when you hover over the tab itself.</li>\n</ul>\nWe\'ll also take a moment to define our \"tabIcon\" class in our master.css stylesheet to wrap this up...\n<pre>.ImgtabIcon { background: url(\"logo.png\") no-repeat 0 0; width: 16px; height: 16px; overflow: hidden; }</pre>\n...so we get a nice professional looking tab...\n\n<a href=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_11.png\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5576\" src=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_11.png\" alt=\"Example of Tab\" width=\"569\" height=\"38\" /></a>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Figure 1: Example of a Tab</p>\n\n<h2>Event: appLaunch</h2>\nThe appLaunch event is similar to the OnLoad event in other platforms and is triggered the first time the Tab application is clicked. The event arg, appName, informs the method which Zimlet is triggering the event. We use it in a switch statement to call our logic for only our Zimlet.\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.appLaunch =\n        function(appName) {\n            switch (appName) {\n                    case this._AppName: {\n                            this._createMainContent();\n                            this._createToolbarContent();\n                            this._createOverviewContent();\n                    }\n            }\n        };</pre>\nInside our case statement, we call three method, each responsible for creating the content for a different part of the anatomy of a Zimlet.\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/zimlet-tab-anatomy.png\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5575 aligncenter\" src=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/zimlet-tab-anatomy.png\" alt=\"Anatomy of a Tab Application\" width=\"784\" height=\"496\" /></a></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Figure 2: Anatomy of a Tab Application</p>\nDetailed explanation of the methods will be provided later.\n<h2>Event: appActive</h2>\nThe appActive event is a combination of OnPause and OnStart events in other platforms. It is triggered both when the tab for the application is selected and unselected. Like appLaunch, it receives the app name as an event arg, but also a boolean value which informs us of whether or not the Zimlet is active.\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.appActive =\n        function(appName, active) {\n\n            switch (appName) {\n                case this._simpleAppName: {\n                    var app = appCtxt.getApp(appName); \n\n                    if (active) \n                        this._createMainContent();\n\n                break;\n                }\n            }\n        };</pre>\nIn our Zimlet, the main content is retreived via a web service, so every time the Zimlet is activated, we want to call the web service and refresh the content. To do this, we check to ensure the Zimlet calling the event is our own and than check to see if the Zimlet is active. If it is, we recreate the main content using our createMainContent method.\n<h2>Creating the Main Content</h2>\nCreating our Main Content is relatively simple. We get our Zimlet app object and call the setContent method with a string of HTML as an argument. In the context of our Scheduling app, we make a call to a SOAP client that returns a string of HTML representing the schedule. For the sake of brevity, we won\'t go into the details of the SOAP client, but you have our personal assurance that it works!\n<pre>com_schedule_example.prototype._createMainContent =\n        function() {\n            var app = appCtxt.getApp(globalAppName);\n            var html = this._callSOAPClient();\n            app.setContent(html);\n        }\n</pre>\n<h2>Creating Buttons in the ToolBar</h2>\n','ZIMBRA ZIMLETS - CREATING A TAB APPLICATION','','inherit','open','open','','5571-revision-3','','','2011-12-06 17:57:31','2011-12-06 17:57:31','',5571,'http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/5571-revision-3',0,'revision','',0),(5578,8,'2011-12-06 19:02:50','2011-12-06 19:02:50','If you have decided to capitalize on VMware\'s Open Source email and collaboration software, Zimbra Collaboration Suite 6.0, you might be struggling a bit to find in-depth tutorials on Zimlet development that give you the information you need to take advantage of Zimbra\'s rich AJAX web interface.

For the purposes of this tutorial, we don\'t need any special configuration settings, so we will not be providing any example code, but this is, none the less, a very important file.

To create our HandlerObject, we open up our com_schedule_example.js file and implement a class using the same name defined in our definition file.\n<pre>function com_schedule_example_HandlerObject() {\n\n}</pre>\nThis class\'s subclass will be ZmZimletBase so we have access to all the API methods.\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype = new ZmZimletBase();\ncom_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.constructor = com_schedule_example_HandlerObject;</pre>\nNow that we have defined our HandlerObject, we need to implement the three main events of a Zimlet\'s lifecycle: init, appLaunch, and appActive.\n<h2>Event: init</h2>\nThe init function is the equivalent to the OnCreate event in other platforms and is triggered once during loading of the Zimbra Desktop. This method is where we create our Tab Application via the createApp method. We store the app name returned by the method as a class property for access later on.\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.init =\n        function() {\n            this._AppName = this.createApp(\"Schedule\", \"tabIcon\", \"Display the Engineer and Technical Consulting schedules\");\n        };</pre>\nA few notes about the arguments of createApp....\n<ul>\n	<li>The first argument is the name that will appear in the tab for the application</li>\n	<li>The second argument is the CSS Class that will define the icon in our tab. \"Img\" will be prefixed to the CSS Class at runtime so the actual CSS Class will be \"ImgtabIcon\".</li>\n	<li>The final argument defines the message displayed in the tool-tip when you hover over the tab itself.</li>\n</ul>\nWe\'ll also take a moment to define our \"tabIcon\" class in our master.css stylesheet to wrap this up...\n<pre>.ImgtabIcon { background: url(\"logo.png\") no-repeat 0 0; width: 16px; height: 16px; overflow: hidden; }</pre>\n...so we get a nice professional looking tab...\n\n<a href=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_11.png\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5576\" src=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/blog_11.png\" alt=\"Example of Tab\" width=\"569\" height=\"38\" /></a>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Figure 1: Example of a Tab</p>\n\n<h2>Event: appLaunch</h2>\nThe appLaunch event is similar to the OnLoad event in other platforms and is triggered the first time the Tab application is clicked. The event arg, appName, informs the method which Zimlet is triggering the event. We use it in a switch statement to call our logic for only our Zimlet.\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.appLaunch =\n        function(appName) {\n            switch (appName) {\n                    case this._AppName: {\n                            this._createMainContent();\n                            this._createToolbarContent();\n                            this._createOverviewContent();\n                    }\n            }\n        };</pre>\nInside our case statement, we call three method, each responsible for creating the content for a different part of the anatomy of a Zimlet.\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/zimlet-tab-anatomy.png\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-5575 aligncenter\" src=\"http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/zimlet-tab-anatomy.png\" alt=\"Anatomy of a Tab Application\" width=\"784\" height=\"496\" /></a></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Figure 2: Anatomy of a Tab Application</p>\nDetailed explanation of the methods will be provided later.\n<h2>Event: appActive</h2>\nThe appActive event is a combination of OnPause and OnStart events in other platforms. It is triggered both when the tab for the application is selected and unselected. Like appLaunch, it receives the app name as an event arg, but also a boolean value which informs us of whether or not the Zimlet is active.\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype.appActive =\n        function(appName, active) {\n\n            switch (appName) {\n                case this._simpleAppName: {\n\n                    if (active)\n                        this._createMainContent();\n\n                break;\n                }\n            }\n        };</pre>\nIn our Zimlet, the main content is retreived via a web service, so every time the Zimlet is activated, we want to call the web service and refresh the content. To do this, we check to ensure the Zimlet calling the event is our own and than check to see if the Zimlet is active. If it is, we recreate the main content using our createMainContent method.\n<h2>Creating the Main Content</h2>\nCreating our Main Content is relatively simple. We get the ZmZimletApp object for our Zimlet and call the setContent method with a string of HTML as an argument. In the context of our Scheduling app, we make a call to a SOAP client that returns a string of HTML representing the schedule. For the sake of brevity, we won\'t go into the details of the SOAP client, but you have our personal assurance that it works!\n<pre>com_schedule_example.prototype._createMainContent =\n        function() {\n            var app = appCtxt.getApp(globalAppName);\n            var html = this._callSOAPClient();\n            app.setContent(html);\n        }</pre>\n<h2>Creating Buttons in the ToolBar</h2>\nNow, it\'s time to add Buttons to our ToolBar and things will get a bit more complicated. The logic for accomplishing this will be defined in our createToolbarcontent method that we called during appLaunch. Unlike the dynamic content of the Main Content area, the Toolbar buttons will be static and unchanging for the duration of the Zimlet\'s life-cycle and do not need to be called during appActive.\n<pre>com_schedule_example.prototype._createToolbarContent =\n        function() {\n\n        }</pre>\nThe step in creating buttons in our Toolbar is to get the ZmZimletApp object and the ZmToolBar object itself from ZmZimletApp.\n<pre>var app = appCtxt.getApp(appName);\nvar toolbar = app.getToolbar();</pre>\nFor the context of our scheduling Zimlet, we need two buttons, one that changes the date range for the schedule to a previous 3 week period and another that changes it to the next 3 weeks. To begin we will, create the previous button.\n<pre>var prev_button_params = {\n     id: \'com_egroup_schedule_prev\',\n     text: \'Prev 3 Weeks\',\n     image: \'leftArrowIcon\',\n     tooltip: \'View the Schedule for the next 3 weeks.\'\n}\n\nvar prev_button = toolbar.createButton(prev_button_params, prev_button_params);</pre>\nFirst, we define a hash of our parameters for the buttons. We are using a few basic ones. A detailed list can be found at <a href=\"http://files.zimbra.com/docs/zimlet/zcs/7.1.2/jsdocs/symbols/ZmToolBar.html#createButton\" target=\"_blank\">ZmToolBar. </a>A few notes about this...\n<ul>\n	<li>ID is an unique identifier for retrieving the button object via the API</li>\n	<li>Text is the display text of the button</li>\n	<li>Image is the CSS Class which defines the icon, identical to the tabIcon class we created for our App. \"Img\" is also prefixed to these CSS Classes, making the actual class name at runtime ImgleftArrowIcon</li>\n	<li>Tooltip is the message displayed when hovering the button.</li>\n</ul>\nThe params must be supplied as an argument twice to the createButton method. We don\'t fully understand the reasoning behind this or if their is any distinction between the two param arguments. What we can tell you is that omitting one of the arguments will cause a runtime error and including the same set of params as both arguments successfully creates a working button.\n\nNow, that we have our button created, we need to add a listener event so something magical happens when it is pressed. This is done via assignment of an AjxListener object\n\n<pre> var prev_button_listener = new AjxListener(this, this._eventPrevThreeWeeks);\nprev_button.addSelectionListener(prev_button_listener):</pre>\nThe first argument in the AjxListener consructor determines which object will call the provided method. In this case, it is the HandlerObject. The second argument is the actual method that is called when the listener is triggered. In our example, it\'s a custom method called eventPrevThreeWeeks. Finally, we call addSelectionListener so the AjxListener is called when the button is selected.\n<pre>com_schedule_example.prototype._eventPrevThreeWeeks=\n        function() {\n             // Normally, this event would make an SOAPClient call to update our Main Content area with a new schedule that represented the previous three week\n             // period, but for the sake of staying on topic, we\'ve removed that code.\n        }\n','ZIMBRA ZIMLETS - CREATING A TAB APPLICATION','','inherit','open','open','','5571-revision-4','','','2011-12-06 19:02:50','2011-12-06 19:02:50','',5571,'http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/5571-revision-4',0,'revision','',0),(5579,8,'2011-12-06 20:21:06','2011-12-06 20:21:06','If you have decided to capitalize on VMware\'s Open Source email and collaboration software, Zimbra Collaboration Suite 6.0, you might be struggling a bit to find in-depth tutorials on Zimlet development that give you the information you need to take advantage of Zimbra\'s rich AJAX web interface. This is normal with any new software release, particularly with a platform that supports a complex and rich API for plug-in and app development. To help make the power of the ZCS 6 API available to the general development community, we\'ll be enhancing some of the basic tutorials and providing more advanced knowledge of some of the common features you will want to implement in one of your Zimlets. This article will focus on creating a Tab Applications that provides real world functionality in the Main Content, Toolbar, and Overview areas.\n\nIf you are new to Zimlet Development or have absolutely no idea what Zimbra is, we recommend visiting the <a href=\"http://www.zimbra.com/about/\" target=\"_blank\">VMWare Zimbra website</a> and reading the <a href=\"http://wiki.zimbra.com/index.php?title=ZCS_6.0:Zimlet_Developers_Guide:Introduction\" target=\"_blank\">ZCS 6.0 Developers Guide</a> before reading the tutorial.

The names have been changed to protect the innocent\n<h2>Zimbra Definition File</h2>\nThe first step in defining your Zimlet Definition File, an XML file that defines the core behavior of the Zimlet and the resources included in the Zimlet package. If you wanted to implement your Zimlet as a content or panel Zimlet or create context menus, you would do so with XML elements in your Zimlet Definition File. The concept of the file is very similar to an Android Manifest file for any Droid developers out there.

Two Buttons in a Tab Application\'s Toolbar</p>\n\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left\">Adding a TreeView to the Overview</h2>\nNow, we have a Main Content area with content and a Toolbar area with buttons, but our Overview is a little bare. For the context of our Zimlet, we need a way to switch back and forth between the schedule for Engineers and for Technical Consultants. We are going to implement this feature as a TreeView in the Overview section.\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"image/png;base64,[encoded data, 8480 characters]\" alt=\"Example of a TreeView\" width=\"248\" height=\"242\" /></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Figure 4. Example of a Tree View in an Overview</p>\nThe logic for this will be called in the createOverviewContent method we implemented in appLaunch. Much like the Toolbar, this is a static feature and does not need to be recreated via appActive\n<pre>com_schedule_example.prototype._createOverviewContent =\n        function() {\n\n        }</pre>\nThe first step in the process is to get the ZmZimletApp object and from that, the ZmOverview object.\n<pre>var app = appCtxt.getApp(appName);\nvar overview = app.getOverview();</pre>\nAfter that, we need to create our ZmTreeView object. We pass the object a hash of params. We define the ZmTreeView\'s parent as the ZmOverview object. Don\'t be confused by overviewID. It\'s the unqiue ID for the ZmTreeView object, not the ZmOverview object. We are only using the basic params to create this object. A detailed list is in the ZCS 6.0 API Specifications.\n<pre>var treeview = new ZmTreeView({\n     parent: overview,\n     overviewId: \'com_egroup_schedule_treeview\'});</pre>\nNext, we create the dwHeaderTreeItem for our zmTreeView. The first item will be our header item. As a quick note, the API documentation for TreeView suggests there is an alternative way to implement a DwHeaderTreeItem that will be recognized by the getHeaderItem method, but if it exists, it is not listed. As such, we are forced to implement our dwHeaderTreeItem like a dwTreeItem.\n<pre>var tree_item_header = new DwtTreeItem({\n     parent: treeview,\n     text: \'Schedules\',\n     className: \'treeHeader\'\n});</pre>\nWe set the parent for the DwtTreeitem to the ZmTreeView object, define the display text to be \'Schedules\' and give it an unique CSS Class so it can have it\'s own custom CSS. The CSS Class will have -Text appened onto it during runtime, so the actual CSS Class will be \'treeHeader-text\'\n\nNow, we define our two TreeItems, one for Engineers and one for Technical Consultants.\n<pre>var tree_item_engineer = new DwtTreeItem({\n     parent: treeview,\n     text: \'Engineers\'\n});\n\nvar tree_item_tc = new DwtTreeItem({\n     parent: treeview,\n     text: \'Technical Consultants\'\n});</pre>\nWe make sure the header is not able to be selected, but the two child items are.\n<pre>tree_item_header.enableSelection(false);\ntree_item_engineer.enableSelection(true);\ntree_item_tc.enableSelection(true);</pre>\nThen, we add the all the items to the zmTreeView\n<pre>treeview.addChild(tree_item_header);\ntreeview.addChild(tree_item_engineer);\ntreeview.addChild(tree_item_tc);</pre>\nAnd, finally, we add the zmTreeView to the zmOverView.\n<pre>overview.setTreeView(treeview.overviewId);</pre>\nNow that we have our ZmTreeView , we need to assign it a listener, much like we did with the buttons, so we can fire logic when one of the items is selected.\n<pre>var engineer_button_listener = new AjxListener(this, this._eventTreeViewSelected);\ntreeview.addSelectionListener(engineer_button_listener);</pre>\nThe listener for the ZmTreeView works a little differently than the one for the buttons. Instead of having one method for every dwtTreeItem, we have a single method that receives a hash as an event argument. This hash allows us to determine which dwtTreeItem was selected.\n<pre>com_schedule_example_HandlerObject.prototype._eventTreeViewSelected =\n        function(ev) {\n            if (ev.items.length == 1 &amp;&amp; ev.detail == DwtTree.ITEM_SELECTED) {\n                var tree_item = DwtControl.getTargetControl(ev, false);\n                if (tree_item.getText() == \'Engineers\' )\n                    // Logic to retreive the engineering schedule\n                else\n                    // Logic to retreive the technical consultants schedule.\n            }\n}</pre>\n<pre>To break down the above, we check to see if the event triggering the method was a dwtTreeItem being selected. If so, we get the actual dwtTreeItem object via getTargetControl and check it\'s display test to determine what dwtTreeItem it is. This allows us to execute the proper code for retrieving the engineering or technical consultant schedule.</pre>','ZIMBRA ZIMLETS - CREATING A TAB APPLICATION','','inherit','open','open','','5571-revision-5','','','2011-12-06 20:21:06','2011-12-06 20:21:06','',5571,'http://egroup.jasonmangone.com/5571-revision-5',0,'revision','',0),
