I never said the back-end was complicated. In fact, I pointed out that I've
written THREE different back-end "servers" and each of them was TRIVIAL--
the most recent of which was the most trivial of all. What I DID say seemed
complicated and absurd was the machinations required to get data packaged up
and ready to GO to the back-end. As Jim and I were discussing, it should be
really easy-- a JSON object or something similar. It SHOULDN'T take three
whole days to figure out how to add extra parameters or turn a model into a
regular array or to have to hoist it into being an object again in order to
get it to the back-end. But that's what happened. Everything that seemed
like it should be simple and obvious turned out to be complicated and
obscure. And in fact, I wasn't able to reach a satisfactory conclusion
without digging through the bowels of the framework code to figure out how
they pick apart the object. If any of that is documented in the manual
someplace, I've completely missed it.
