Re: cforms, flowscripts and database
Nick Again, a plea from the "community" - many people have expressed a deep interest in seeing a sample of this work (along with, if possible, a brief explanation of how to set such a system up) and it would be excellent if you could spare some time to do so... Thanks Derek >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004/06/03 08:28:57 PM >>> Hi, I'm developing a webapp that also needed persistency.

Not too much flow script, only a few lines for each form. I hope this will help you.

Re: cforms, flowscripts and database
Hi, I'm developing a webapp that also needed persistency. I decided to use Hibernate (it is very easy to learn and use) in conjunction with CForms and the woody data binding framework. Till now I think it a good choice. Not too much flow script, only a few lines for each form. I hope this will help you.

Re: cforms, flowscripts and database
Stephane One or two of us (and probably others) are working to try and get a decent sample for the use of Hibernate as a persistence layer, acting in concert with POJO, as well as the usual flow/cforms. I do not believe it will be that hard to do, but it is quite a mouthful of technology to swallow at one go!! Perhaps we can call this LATCH (Linux/Apache/Tomcat/Cocoon/Hibernate) [nb. avoid adding in mysql as this solution is meant to be db independant!] Derek >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004/06/02 04:40:48 PM >>> Hi, I need to develop a webb app based on a PostgreSQL db.

The BEST way in general is: — business logic in Java — ...with object persistence via Hibernate, OJB or whatever — controller logic in flowscript However, if you have legacy data in PostgresSQL, then the general "best" way might not be the "best" way for you! You would probably be better off with a data access layer of simple Java classes using JDBC. I took a look at the petstore sample and saw database.js. I haven't looked at that, so I can't comment on it. Maybe that would be a good way to go, all things considered. Using flowscript as the implementation language for an application, i.e. for application/business logic, is somewhat of an "abuse" :-). I think flowscript is primarily intended for controller/presentation logic. You get sort of a two-level controller layer, with little controllers written in flowscript, and the sitemap as a kind of "super-controller" or dispatch layer. But flowscript was never meant to be "the programming language of Cocoon applications". that's a pretty thing but maybe not as strong as actions and so on. I already saw that there was quite a long discussion around that (cocoon-devel sthg around April 20th ) Man, I need to get caught up on that list... it's been a while :-) ~ml - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
