Hi Folks,

 

I`m starting with SCA/Tuscany and I have a few conceptual questions: I need
to build some kind of "Dashboard/Portal" application composed by a
"Dashboard View" (a dynamic layout) and various dynamic Dashboard Gadgets
that I'd like to develop in a component model like SCA. 

 

In fact, I could use "Portlet JSR 268" but I would need a traditional
"server centric" Portal product - and my impression is that the portlet
model is old fashioned (although I'm not completely sure). I'd like to have
only one SCA (Java) component that should be able to:

 

- FIRST: Serve "Web Static Content" (HTML5,  CSS3 and  Javascript files) to
be rendered in a dashboard panel/gadget area (this would probably be
persisted locally by using HTML5 Local Persistence) 

- SECOND: To keep RESTful Ajax interations with the client

 

My questions are:

 

1. I didn't find examples of SCA components serving client content (HTML)
directly. The HTML/CSS/JS files are normally deployed in the client
application. But it's a reasonable architecture? Is there any problems to do
that that I can't see (as a begginer)? 

 

2. If it's reasonable: Must I deliver this component as a regular JAR or is
there another more appropriate format in SCA/Tuscany? 

 

3. Does anyone have links (or arguments) about "portlet JSR268 x SCA"?

 

Thanks in advance! I intend to study Tuscany in depth but any tip at this
moment will help me a lot...
