I have a scenario which is to do the following The web browser will call the server via ajax. At the server the system should produce a pdf file and store it in the file system. Next make a database update and return some data back to web browser using json
Below is the steps as per my understanding to do the same · Front end to call a controller entry for a particular request map · Request map to call a service and do some things and then kick off the view map of type screenfop to generate pdf. · This screen fop is mapped to custom handler based on org.ofbiz.widget.screen.ScreenFopViewHandler which has code tweaked to store the pdf as file on hard disk and then call another request map entry in the controller.xml · This request map to do the rest of things like update database row and then return data in json back to client Is there a better way to execute the above scenario Secondly from my customer ScreenFopViewHandler how do I call another request map entry in controller.xml. Will it via RequestDispatcher?
