Yes, that's true, Jtalk is for the client-side. The truth is that I don't know or even if Jtalk will change Iliad. Sure that could be great to make them work together, but here I would have to deal with our existing apps, written in Iliad. Also, would people be happy about it? > > - How can we (or can we (or should we)) bring together two applications > written in Iliad and Jtalk?

A stateless server side serving dynamic pages in Jtalk with a way to discuss with the server from Jtalk, like JSON data exchanges, could be a good idea. > > - For example, when I think of the forum I wrote, the whole application > except for the persistency part could be written in Jtalk?

I think that the entire user interface can be written in Jtalk. Now you would still need the server for the database, user identification, etc. Cheers, Nico _______________________________________________ help-smalltalk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-smalltalk
