[11:48] <robi42> fyi: just a short remark that the new convenient way to create gae helma ng apps via shell script works fine so far: http://hello-ng.appspot.com/
[12:21] <emilis_info> is "uneval()" a feature of Rhino or of Helma? As much as I understand it is not part of some standard?
[12:41] * simono looksup uneval
[12:41] <emilis_info> helma> uneval({a: 1})
[12:41] <emilis_info> ;)
[12:43] <simono> it's a rhino thing, never used it :) http://www.mozilla.org/rhino/rhino15R5.html
[12:43] <simono> why do you think you need it?
[12:44] <emilis_info> I've just made myself a module for embedded JS parsing. Thought I could use uneval() instead of escaping quotes and slashes in strings
[12:46] <emilis_info> aha
[12:46] <emilis_info> thanks for your url
[12:46] <simono> okay :)
[12:46] <emilis_info> seems it is only implemented in both mozilla engines
[12:46] <simono> ah yes spider & rhino
[12:46] <emilis_info> yup
[12:47] <simono> i can only tell you we use toSource() smtimes but that's equally bad..i don't understand the difference of the two, if there is any
[12:47] <emilis_info> to Source() is also non-standard: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Reference/Global_Objects/Object/toSource
[14:16] <emilis_info> Do you know where I could get documentation on request and module objects? I can't list all of their properties in console.
[14:27] <robi42> emilis_info: there's some initial jsdoc support: http://helma-ng.appspot.com/jsdoc/
[14:30] <robi42> cf. http://groups.google.com/group/helma-ng/browse_thread/thread/bb959aa8a7a23698/f61957f7fb54451d
[17:10] <triotex> has anybody here ever used the SERIAL datatype of postgres for ids?
[17:10] <triotex> is it working like a normal integer?
[17:15] <triotex> ahh not like an integer, like you would expect by setting _idgen = COLUMN_WHICH_IS_A_SERIAL
