XSD Schemas for CForms Development
----------------------------------
Key: COCOON-2137
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-2137
Project: Cocoon
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Blocks: Forms
Reporter: Gabriel Gruber
Priority: Minor
A common pitfall in developing cforms applications is the misuse of certain
cforms tags.
A schema for the forms files (definition, binding, template) would greatly help
in writing forms code faster and more accurate and minimizing syntax errors in
the first place.
I have started writing such schemas for the binding and definition files and
added notations out of the current (2.1.10) cforms documentation. those
schemas are quite completet (well almost).
I also added starting points for this schemas:
- i18n transformer
- jx template generator
furthermore form template generator (and form instance) would be interesting.
the major problem with the template is that we are heavily mixing different xml
gramars here and state-of-the-art xml editors (like oxygen) have their problems
with providing auto-complete features here.
the code-completion (assistance) feature for the form-definition and
form-binding works quite well. it also has the added benefit, that the
important bits of the cocoon forms docs are being displayed.
