David E. Jones commented on OFBIZ-1383:
---------------------------------------
If this does not use the existing services (and preferably the ShoppingCart and
related classes as well) then I would recommend against using is. The same goes
for not using the entity engine for data access. For these reasons alone it
should not be included in OFBiz, nor recommended for use by those in positions
of responsibility with OFBiz.
The reason is that we're fighting hard to avoid duplicated logic and such. That
is why the POS stuff uses the ShoppingCart and related objects, the same
services as the Order Manager and ecommerce, and of course a lot of the service
and entity engines to reuse and share logic with other places in OFBiz.
Given the scope of OFBiz, and even more the potential scope for the future,
this is pretty much a must to avoid more effort and complexity than is needed
for the applications, for initial creation as well as maintenance.
I'm guessing you already get this Skip, so don't take it personally. I'm just
commenting to help make it very clear to everyone...
> Standalone Java Application for Sales Order Entry
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OFBIZ-1383
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1383
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: order
> Reporter: Skip Dever
> Attachments: fssoe.ZIP, startfs.bat
>
>
> This issue makes available a new desktop application that allows sales order
> entry. It is similar in concept to the pos module.
> The difference is that it essentially duplicates the functionality
> Order-Order Entry screen. It is useful if you have backoffice sales people
> taking lots of orders.
> It is architecturally different from the POS in that it is designed to have
> an interface to the Ofbiz engine in whatever manner you want. My intent was
> to produce both direct and java-rpc connections, but only the direct
> connection is done. See the com.fs.data.DataConnection and com.fs.data.
> OfbizDataConnection classes for more details.
> This runs, but is not finished. I have been pulled off to finish the AR and
> Purchasing work, and I expect that to take a month or two. So, I am offering
> this advanced look in case there are others who can use it or would like to
> contribute.
> Note that I do not expect this to be part of the Ofbiz distribution because
> the code formatting does not follow the Ofbiz guidelines. However, I have no
> intention of changing the formatting. I have over a million lines of java
> code using this formatting and I do not intend to change at this point.
> To install this, unzip the attached file in your specialpurpose directory and
> follow the minimal installation instructions in the docs subdirectory.
> The basics are reprinted here:
> Copy specialpurpose\fs\configfiles/fssoe-containers.xml to
> framework\base\config.
> Copy specialpurpose\fs\/configfiles/fssoe.properties to
> framework\base\build\classes\start\org\ofbiz\base\start
> Add:
> <load-component component-location="${ofbiz.home}/specialpurpose/fs"/>
> To specialpurpose/component-load.xml
> Run ant with no arguments in the Ofbiz root directory
> You can then run the application with:
> java -Xms256M -Xmx512M -Duser.language=en -jar ofbiz.jar fssoe
