Turing Off Luminis IV Cache
At Summit a presenter casually mentioned having the ability to turn off caching on the development box so you didn't have to bounce luminis whenever you made a change to nested-tables.xsl or any other file.
I posted a message to the LUMTECH list and here are the settings (thanks to Omar Barrera of South Texas College) :
$CP_WEBINF/uPortal/properties/portal.properties
org.jasig.portal.utils.XSLT.stylesheet_set_caching=off
org.jasig.portal.utils.XSLT.stylesheet_root_caching=off
org.jasig.portal.PortalSessionManager.url_caching=off
Make these changes, bounce luminis and you're set.
One thing I did notice is that when editing some of the skin files, I had to log out and back in, but that's a FAR CRY from waiting 5-10 minutes for luminis to bounce for each change you need to see.
My overall impression ... it rocks!
I just designed our Prospective Student Portal, and it took about 1/4 of the time it would have if I had to bounce every time.
enjoy !

Looks great
Have you seen any issues with performance since turning the cache options off?
caching off
I tried turning caching off on my test LumIV and it took about 5 minutes to log in. I don't recall which exact caches I tweaked though. I'll try with the above listed ones.
edit: I just tried those settings and they work really well. I must have gone overboard and turned off more than I needed to last time:) Thanks Jon.
