Skip Dever commented on OFBIZ-1383:
-----------------------------------
Ah David
Perhaps you misunderstood. This does use the entity engine as well as the
service engine and much of the Ofibz framework and Order services.
The difference is that with the existing DataConnection, it runs them on the
users desktop. The DataConnection however can easily be re-written to connect
to the Ofbiz server in different ways. This version runs the Ofbiz logic on the
users desktop.
It works EXACTLY like the POS project you will now find in specialpurpose.
This means that it can utilize the same synchronization features etc et. al.
In fact, is uses the shopping cart, and much of the helper code in th e
shopping cart directories. As well as services and helper code from lots of
places.
About the only thing new here is a layer between the GUI and Ofbiz code to
allow the use of SOAP or java-rpc to the Obfiz server, a GUI and a new piece of
code to print on high speed line printers (although, that is quite a lot).
I suspect that if you take the time to download and install it, you will find a
customer for it someday.
> Standalone Java Application for Sales Order Entry

> Key: OFBIZ-1383
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1383
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: order
> Reporter: Skip Dever
> Attachments: fssoe.ZIP, startfs.bat
>
>
> This issue makes available a new desktop application that allows sales order
> entry. It is similar in concept to the pos module.
> The difference is that it essentially duplicates the functionality
> Order-Order Entry screen. It is useful if you have backoffice sales people
> taking lots of orders.
> It is architecturally different from the POS in that it is designed to have
> an interface to the Ofbiz engine in whatever manner you want. My intent was
> to produce both direct and java-rpc connections, but only the direct
> connection is done. See the com.fs.data.DataConnection and com.fs.data.
> OfbizDataConnection classes for more details.
> This runs, but is not finished. I have been pulled off to finish the AR and
> Purchasing work, and I expect that to take a month or two. So, I am offering
> this advanced look in case there are others who can use it or would like to
> contribute.
> Note that I do not expect this to be part of the Ofbiz distribution because
> the code formatting does not follow the Ofbiz guidelines. However, I have no
> intention of changing the formatting. I have over a million lines of java
> code using this formatting and I do not intend to change at this point.
> To install this, unzip the attached file in your specialpurpose directory and
> follow the minimal installation instructions in the docs subdirectory.
> The basics are reprinted here:
> Copy specialpurpose\fs\configfiles/fssoe-containers.xml to
> framework\base\config.
> Copy specialpurpose\fs\/configfiles/fssoe.properties to
> framework\base\build\classes\start\org\ofbiz\base\start
> Add:
> <load-component component-location="${ofbiz.home}/specialpurpose/fs"/>
> To specialpurpose/component-load.xml
> Run ant with no arguments in the Ofbiz root directory
> You can then run the application with:
> java -Xms256M -Xmx512M -Duser.language=en -jar ofbiz.jar fssoe
