Hello. I was actually looking to pump in my enhancements to the Widget module. I've incorporated some Ajax-facilitating or Ajax-related features directly into the Widget module, so I won't have to do HUGE .ftl(s). Imagine being able to use and reuse a widget-screen for 2 (or more)

You ask about whether there are Javascript experts around. Of course if you were to use GWT (Google Widget Toolkit), you do the programming in Java and it is translated into Javascript. That way you get all the strict typing of Java but the implementation on the browser without addons. GWT is

Jonathon, Probably the best approach would be to write an xslt script which would parse the OfBiz XML descriptors and generate skeleton code which could then be subclassed to put in specific processing (it may be possible to generate the whole thing, I have not looked closely enough). I am

David, we did a number of pilots with GWT (and other frameworks) in OFBiz and were much happier with the dojo toolkit. The GWT, while having the bonus of being able to do everything in java, also required a bit more of a tight coupling with the HTML - which in my mind - made it less

Tim, I am not at all sure what you mean by tight coupling with the HTML. As you never (or should never) write any HTML as part of the GWT code this makes no sense. Yes the GWT controls are mapped to HTML, but you can make your own controls quite easily, and integrate them into the GWT framework

Re: Google Widget Toolkit and OFBiz Widget module

I have not looked in detail, but given that OfBiz has an abstract definition of the UI and the processing it should be possible to have an xslt transform that generates a set of GWT java source that can be compiled and then used by the browser. Doing it dynamically would not seem sensible, but

I have a tool that creates SWT code. the problem with JAVA based UI is that the application runs on the client not the web server. So a interface has to be written to communication with the ofbiz. Where I am going with this, is the Widgets xml is converted already in ofbiz. So I would liked to

Definition of Derivative Work under OFBiz Framework

What is the context for this question? Do you mean OFBiz itself (the Apache OFBiz code base), or do you mean something like opentaps that has OFBiz plus GPL (well, actually HPL) licensed add-ons? In general remember the ECAs in an add-on component are NOT OFBiz calling into that code,

Vinay, Unless you're looking for a technicality or a loophole theory (any of which are for the most part, untested by U.S. case law), it would probably be better to ask a project that uses those licenses as they'd be more familiar with the ins and outs...that or an Intellectual Property lawyer.

The things to keep in mind is the second bit I mentioned, and that makes it even simpler than the Linux OS case. In the OFBiz case there is no Apache License v2 code calling GPL/HPL code, it is only the other way around. The GPL/HPL code uses the AL2 only. With that setup the GPL has no
