it really wouldn't be that hard. basically you would create a java class to
generate your RPC calls and internally within your java app it would share
data via java objects. i believe they would be serialized so you could
easily access and share them.
the bulk of the work would be having the tapestry java component generate
the resource location on the fly when an external service is invoked. Kinda
like how AJAX invokes an XML document on the fly.
i completely forgot about applets. We dont usually use them at work so i
always forget. go figure. Anyways, the ability to easily allow applets to
communicate with a java backend running on a servcer would be amazing
powerful. forexample, you could use your applet to handle only UI data and
other smaller processes which the client side could handle. have it
communicate directly with a java app running on the backend which could be
hooked up to a mainframe or network which could be used to massive rendering
jobs or datamining.
a possible use of this integration would be a realtime, high resolution
rendering of say a molecule, CAD drawing, or 3d animation accesable from the
web. The server could process the rendering and outputs the frames to a dir,
you could have the applet pick up the frames via JSON (IE. passing the
applet the URI of the rendered frames, then have the applet sequence them. A
fbig enough mainframe could even cahce the rendered frames and map them to a
URI. This could open up tapestry with the ability to program and host say a
Web based 3d rendering program such as Maya or something. The possibilities
are endless.

Subject: Re: T5 : potential feature - JSON component
Hello,
I'm interesting by the subject. How to integrate JSON with Tap5 in a
nice way.
For the moment I'm using http://oss.metaparadigm.com/jsonrpc/ to
communicate between Java Applets and WebApps.
But I didn't integrate it in Tapestry ; I'm using the JSonRpc Servlet
and share objects with WebApps using SpringFramework.
It would be nice to get Tapestry managing JSonRpc calls.
I'm new with Tapestry, and Java in general, so I could not bring any
idea about the way to do this.
But I can participate to the discussion and make some tryies.

Evan Rawson - Work a écrit :
It would be great if a JSON component could be created for T5. After some
extensive research i feel that this feature really would add a ton of
flexibility of how your tapestry application can communicate with other
tapestry application running on a network. For example my company needs to
split up our monstrous application now consisting of about 700 to 1000
pages, and and a few thousand components. We are branching off our sub
applications to run as there own independent application. The ability to
allow these separate application to talk to each other is very ambigious,
meaning that we need to transfer data via http sessions or via a db.
with the implementation of JSON we could easily setup a java component
service which could allow another tapestry application to request data
from another server by giving it the domain, app name, and service name
(what you wanna look up)
due to JSON 's extreme flexibility and speed, tapestry applicatiosn
powered by JSON could allow our application to talk to and interact with
pretty much any other application coded in any modern language. wether it
be another web application or backend process, or even a desktop
application.
i believe that JSON would be a better langauge versus say XML becuase its
parser is faster, and its easier to intrepret in human language. JSON is
also a more superior way to handle AJAX requests rather then using XML
streams. (smaller size, and faster to parse)
just a thought.
