Hi all, The closest RFE we have for Ilango's concern is this one: "Support XQuery and XForms" http://restlet.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=8 I'm not sure yet how exactly the framework could help, but this might be worth exploring. The RFE points to an interesting article: "XRX: Simple, Elegant, Disruptive" http://www.oreillynet.com/xml/blog/2008/05/xrx_a_simple_elegant_disruptiv_1.html XForms on the client REST interfaces and XQuery on the server Best regards, Jerome _____

I don't know very well about OPS. I just like to let you know that I have been able to integrate successfully (so far) Saxon and Restlet. I might publish it as an extension. Basically, Restlet does the handling of requests delegating processing to xqueries. All the application logic and presentation logic is written with xquery. I don't really know what kind of framework you would like to use to "connect" to your datasources but I think that Restlet has no builtin for these concerns. Hope it helps, Rémi On Tue, Jul 8, 2008 at 1:30 AM, ilango <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi Could you elaborate more on this Resource subclass? thanks ilango --- On Mon, 7/7/08, Avi Flax <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Avi Flax <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: XForm integration with the RestLet framework possible?

Rather than use the OPS pipelines for connecting my XForms to datasources I would like to use the Restlet Framework to connect my XForm fields to datasources like MySQL, a Web Service, XML databases like eXist, etc. I would like to get XML data into my XForm, regardless of the type of datasource. I'm not feeling this. Not sure this is something that the framework, or even an extension, should handle. Could be a slippery slope towards the framework trying to be everything for everyone. Why not just write the glue yourself in a Resource subclass? -- Avi Flax » Lead Technologist » Partner » Arc90 » http://arc90.com
