@NotZippy, this is not that important to know this now. It have to be a goal. @DL, my project, as it is a meta meta meta tool can produce code for java as .net, even PHP5 pure oo or old style. This to say the language here is not the matter too. I would prefer Java =) I believe that something which integrate all theses things is a matter, a solution. Even a goal. Something like IT generator. UI in LZX. Backend in whatever you want. 2007/4/21, DL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > On 20 Apr 2007 at 12:02, David Temkin wrote: > > This reflects some thoughts I have had for an IDE .. prototype under > development .. > > > We definitely need to sort out internal priorities here before we > > commit resources, but this is where I think we'd like to go: > > > > * This visual design tool would consist of a Laszlo front end > > (browser-based) that is paired with a Java back-end that manipulates > > LZX files on the server's filesystem > _________________________________________________ > > I'm adopting PHP5 as my preferred back-end script, with database to hold > designs. > _________________________________________________ > > > * The normal mode of using this tool would be within the Tomcat > > installation (or other app server) on the developer's machine > > _________________________________________________ > > Yes > > and another option .. > > (collaborative) visualisation/development might be on an Apache/PHP5 > server with lzx > compilation on backend Tomcat. > _________________________________________________ > > > * It would support "Round-trip" editing of LZX code.
