Where I put my business logic ?

2003-06-26 Thread Alberto Zanon



Hello,
 
as I written in a previous message (see below), I have to 
build an intranet
and I want to use a solid system (= Cocoon) that helps me to 
separate
presentation, logic and database. At this moment I don't know 
where to put
the "logic". For example, when a user of my 
site posts an html-form, I have to
do some sql selects, evaluate the results, do an sql update on 
table and finally, if all is ok,
insert the user data. Where and how I write it?
If I don't use Cocoon, I will write it in a Java 
class.
 
I have two days to decide if I will use Cocoon.
 
Thanks

Suggestion for a Cocoon newbie

2003-06-24 Thread Alberto Zanon
Hello!

I'm a Java developer and I'm looking for a solid system to construct my
sites.
I have already realized an e-commerce site, but without rules.
My jsp pages contain both logic and presentation layer.
Only the data layer is encapsulated into java classes called from jsp.
Now I have to construct an intranet at my company where employees
will register their activity during the day.
The site involves form validation, business logic, and the use of a
database.
Before becoming aware of Cocoon, I thought I would build the site this way:
- a layer of java classes that interface with the database;
- a layer of java classes for business logic;
- a layer of jsp for presentation;

Now I have downloaded the latest version of Cocoon and read many pages of
documentation.
But I'm very confused! I read about XSP but I read also about XMLForm ...
and where I put
my business logic? For example, I downloaded a tutorial from IBM about
Cocoon and databases
but it shows only the XSP pages to dialog with the database and format the
data ... no business
logic in it.
I'm interested about Cocoon because one goal of it is the "MVC" or "SoC"
approach
when a site is developed.

Please, can anyone suggest me the right way to use Cocoon?

Thanks
