Managing Content through Tagging in Grails: Part 1

Managing Content through Tagging in Grails: Part 1: "Tagging is a loose, community-based way of categorizing content. It allows a group of people to categorize by consensus. Anyone is able to tag a piece of content. The more a tag is used, the more meaning it takes on and the more widely used it becomes. This categorization by consensus has been dubbed as folksonomy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folksonomy)

So let's get started by building our tagging support."

Using GSPs with Mail plugin

Nabble - grails - user - Using GSPs with Mail plugin: "Sending email created from GSP templates. After a lot of research and tests, I came up with the service that I've attached to this email. It works perfectly, as long as the templates are stored in grails-app/views.

What I've done was to separate the template processing from the mail sending, so this service is only for the first part of the process. You can then use mailService.sendMail(), passing the result of this service to the html or body methods."

PermGen

Frank Kieviet : Weblog: "What is PermGen space anyways? The memory in the Virtual Machine is divided into a number of regions. One of these regions is PermGen. It's an area of memory that is used to (among other things) load class files. The size of this memory region is fixed, i.e. it does not change when the VM is running. You can specify the size of this region with a commandline switch: -XX:MaxPermSize . The default is 64 Mb on the Sun VMs.

If there's a problem with garbage collecting classes and if you keep loading new classes, the VM will run out of space in that memory region, even if there's plenty of memory available on the heap. Setting the -Xmx parameter will not help: this parameter only specifies the size of the total heap and does not affect the size of the PermGen region."
