Well, there are some task that will be accomplished to get cocoon work. Basically the process to create a form is: 1.- Create the form definition file (mapping the fields that exists in the db tables) 2.- Create the binding file (mapping the fields that exists in the java beans)
This points (1 and 2) lies on xml, jxpath. 3.- Create the template file (this is the presentation tier, lie on jxpath) The links: xml: http://www.w3.org/XML/ jxpath: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/jxpath/users-guide.html JXPath is "in my words" a query language to java beans like XPath is a query language to xml documents. Of course, I suppose that you has been successfully installed cocoon. If not read this: http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/installing/index.html To get information about java and the object/relational bridge: Read here: http://db.apache.org/ojb/ And finally, you can study the examples that are included in the cocoon distribution.
