Ah,
so in an overly-simplified manner: we'll simply exchange xml files as
defined in the dtds directory using the oagis-services, correct? And
any
exchange will then be listed on the UI, right?
Well, if that's it, than you are perfectly right: it is exactly what
I was
looking for :)
Yeah, that's pretty much the idea.
A follow-up though: can I edit the dtds in a way that is more
fitting to our
logistics partner, or is the whole idea of OAGIS a standardized
concept that
has been agreed upon from the OAGIS Group?
If you look at the specs you'll see elements designed specifically for
extending the standard elements. Just be careful when you use those...
make SURE there is nothing in the standard elements that meets your
needs (this is a very common problem with such standards, ie people
make stuff up instead of learning how the standard elements are meant
to be used). Anyway, there are a few examples of using those in the
OFBiz OAGIS message send/receive code.
