Hi all,
because of the reorganization of our code we have to think about two new areas XML and ACLs.
The todays implementation of ACL is not really easy to understand and manage. Therefore we think about a reorganization. Does anybody has a opinion about Data::ACL or Decision::ACL?
Before starting the menu generation routine, then, we should chose the access control method and integrate it into the command from the beginning, don't we ?
We want generate our menus dynamical. The description of the menus should be included in an XML file. This XML-file should be parsed and then a script should generate a XHTML-file. Any ideas are welcomed. We think about things like XML::XSLT, XML::DOM and XML::Generator. Massimiliano manages this area but we are pleased with any ideas, recommendations or help.I will appreciate any help you can give me. I heard good words also
about the XML::Simple module (for xml parsing). I don't know anything about
server-side xsl transformations so, if you have any experience in the
field, let's share it :-D
I would also move configuration files, if everything goes well with xml-menu management, to xml: this will require only the OpenCA::Configuration module
to be modified to support xml and will allow for better configuration maintenence (and the chance to write a web-based configurator, someone wants
to voluteer ? ).
