My plan is to make some of the most useful Woody classes directly visible in the JS snippets. This includes ValidationError, among others.


Seems like a hack, but anyway...


I thought it could make life easier. But if it feels hacky, we can also live without it!

Does this mean like import in Java, so that it is possible to access the class without package?


In the CVS version of Cocoon, flow scripts can use packages under "java" , "javax", "com", and "org" without the "Packages" prefix. In addition, the importClass() and importPackage() functions should be usable now (in previous versions these failed when a script was reloaded).


You could add the same functionality to your implementation Javascript snippets in Woody form definitions.

My personal opinion is, however, that these snippets should be eliminated (as well as repeater-action addrow and repeater-action delete-rows and the like) and instead that functionality should be provided by the Woody flowscript API.


I made no answer to your recent addition to Woody because of lack of time, but will do it very soon (it contains very interesting stuff). I do think, however, that the flowscript integration should just be an /integration/ and not an extension. By this, I mean there should be no Woody features only available in flowscript except those that are intimately flowscript related such as form redisplay using continuations.
