Hi Thomas,
I'm building a simple CrUD (Create/Update/Delete) db app, similar to the users/groups and users/depts examples, and I'd like to use
- XSP/ESQL for queries (some of which could get quite complex)
- modular DB actions for insert / update / delete.
This is from experimentation and from studying... you are looking in all the right places
- Christian Haul's excellent GT 2003 paper: http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=GT2003Christian
ModularDB actions, however, still have me baffled. Before cluttering up the list with boring RTFM questions, I'd like to check which F***ing Manual I should be reading :-)
Have you taken a look at: http://localhost:8888/samples/databases/mod-db/user-list
Yup - this is what I've found most valuable so far.
It is what I used to really figure out how to configure/use the modular db actions.
Ok, thanks - I'll persevere.
Searching the list archives I can find other similar questions with few answers, does this mean ModularDB is best left until it is more stable / better documented?
ModularDb is quite stable and Christian has been very helpful in answering any questions.
Thanks, that's good to hear - I really didn't like any of the alternatives as much.
I can't quite put a finger on what is "wrong" with the current docs. The information is there but the examples are almost too involved when you are just starting out. A very simple CRUD example using a single table would be very helpful when starting out. I'll see if I can find some time to put one together...I had said I'd do this a while back and never did though... :^)
This would be, to coin a phrase, "truly awesome". I shall live in hope :-)
HTH Steve
Thanks, Thomas.
