the following snippet is from the WizardAction in the cocoon XMLForm Sample
public Map perform (){
// get the actual model which this Form encapsulates
// and apply additional buziness logic to the model
UserBean jBean = (UserBean) getForm().getModel();
jBean.incrementCount();
if ( getCommand().equals( CMD_NEXT ) &&
getForm().getViolations () != null )
{
// errors, back to the same page
return page( getFormView() );
}
else{
getForm().clearViolations();
String command = getCommand();
String formView = getFormView();
if ( formView.equals ( VIEW_USERID ) ) {
if ( command.equals( CMD_NEXT ) ){
return page( VIEW_DEPLOYMENT );
}
}
else if ( formView.equals ( VIEW_DEPLOYMENT ) ){
if ( command.equals( CMD_NEXT ) ){
return page( VIEW_SYSTEM );
}
else if( command.equals( CMD_PREV ) )
return page( VIEW_USERID );
}
else if ( formView.equals ( VIEW_SYSTEM ) ){
if ( command.equals( CMD_NEXT ) ){
return page( VIEW_CONFIRM );
}
else if( command.equals( CMD_PREV ) )
return page( VIEW_DEPLOYMENT );
}
else if ( formView.equals ( VIEW_CONFIRM ) )
{
if ( command.equals( CMD_NEXT ) ){
-----> here u can call ur Businees method that insert this data into DB for e.g :
-----> call the method :
submitData(jBean);
Form.remove( getObjectModel(), getFormId() );
return page( VIEW_END );
}
else if( command.equals( CMD_PREV ) )
return page( VIEW_SYSTEM );
}
}
return page( VIEW_START );
}
------> so u can implement this method in the SAME Action
private void submitData(UserBean bean){
if u want for e.g input the user data into DB:
String fName = bean.getFirstName();
String lastName = bean.getLastName();
String age = bean.getAge();
String email = bean.getEmail();
then now u have the data entered by the User
so u can map or insert these data in whatever mapping tool u have and then this tool will do the rest as I think.
(In my case I use EJB here to insert these data into DB but In OJB I don't know how it is implemented)
}
BTW: u can find this action code in the cocoon source distribution in the pacjage : org.apache.cocoon.samples.xmlform
I wish this clarify ur needs
Thanx

Thank you Mohamed. I don't use EJB but I use an RDBMS-object mapping tool named OJB. I haven't enough know-how in XMLForm to apply easily what you said. Have you a short example to demonstrate it?

I wish this will help Mohamed [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: hello, I'm trying to write my first XMLForm form and I follow the doc example (wizard howto). In the last step (step 5) you have to (re)build the entire Cocoon app using the command build ... webapp to have a new cocoon.war. Is it possible to compile only the new java files and add the .class directly in the Tomcat webapps directory (without using the .war). And when you want the up-to-date .war, you make the command jar .... ?? Thank you for your suggestions and experiences.
