Bert It sounds like you have managed quite a bit of learning here; I have been thinking about going this route in the future but have not yet convinced myself that all this complexity is worth some (possible?) benefit. Is there any possibility you could start writing up an "idiots guide" on the wiki - you may not think you know much but you do know a lot more than many others!
Thanks Derek >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004/02/18 01:15:29 PM >>> I have been trying for several days to get grips on the "super trio" Woody, Flow and OJB/JDO. I don't have any succes yet, but that is mainly to the complexity of getting OJB/JDO to run. Could someone please shed a light on this to get me going again? I have created a bean to store all form data. The Woody form and the FlowScipt have been created too. I have used the obj/woody sample as a template to get things running. That's the easy part (relatively speaking). I'm using mySQL as a databasource and have a datasource configured in cocoon.xconf. This datasource is used in XSP pages using ESQL without any problem, so that works for sure. My biggest confusion is where I need to configure the link from the bean datastore to the database. Where do I configure OJB and JDO? I have OJB.properties, package.jdo, repository.dtd and repository.xml in the WEB-INF/classes directory. I see a total overlap in the configuration in the package.jdo and repository.xml file. Why is that? Is either of them not needed? I have created a DAO class file too. This is a direct copy of the Employee_DAO class file from the samples. I only replaced the package and replaced the bean methods with the ones from my bean. All this compiles without any problem. The bean and the DAO class are packaged in a jar file and put in the WEB-INF lib directory. I assume this is where I will eventually create queries using OJB code to fill the bean with data. Am I correct?
