Hi,
I still try to understand how submission put and get works. Exist-db comes
with the example
exist/webapp/xforms/hello2.xml (I assume it is known to you?! see
http://exist-db.org/exist/xforms/hello2.xml).
This example works basically as one expects. In order to learn from it I
made copy to
/db/my-hello.xml
and changed only two paths in that file to fit to my setting:
<xf:submission id="put-to-db" method="put" replace="none"
resource="../rest/db/xforms-example-hello2.xml">
to
<xf:submission id="put-to-db" method="put" replace="none"
resource="/exist/rest/db/xforms-example-my-hello.xml">
and
<xf:submission id="get-from-db" method="get" replace="instance"
resource="../rest/db/xforms-example-hello2.xml?_query=/person&_wrap=no">
to
<xf:submission id="get-from-db" method="get" replace="instance"
resource="/exist/rest/db/xforms-example-my-hello.xml?_query=/person&_wrap=no">
And this is my problem:
Let's say the initial content of /exist/rest/db/xforms-example-my-hello.xml
is
<person>
<name>Otto</name>
</person>
When I go to http://localhost:8080/exist/rest/db/my-hello.xml everything is
displayed as in the hello2 example.
Now I type in the text: Anna
and push the button: Safe
This changes /exist/rest/db/xforms-example-my-hello.xml to:
<person>
<name>Anna</name>
<name>Otto</name>
<name/>
<name/>
<test/>
<name/>
</person>
Actually this is the same effect as in the hello2 example. The first
question here: why is
<name/>
<name/>
<test/>
<name/>
added? I would expect only a change to
<person>
<name>Anna</name>
<name>Otto</name>
</person>
But even more strange is the effect of the following interaction:
Let's start again with
<person>
<name>Otto</name>
</person>
Now I type again the text: Anna
but push then the button: Refresh from DB
Still the content of xforms-example-my-hello.xml is (as expected):
<person>
<name>Otto</name>
</person>
However, when I type again: Anna
And then push the button: Safe
Then the content of xforms-example-my-hello.xml is:
<exist:result>
<name>Anna</name>
</exist:result>
That's not I would expect. Instead I would expect again:
<person>
<name>Anna</name>
<name>Otto</name>
</person>
For me the behaviour of submission is thus rather unpredictable. Or do you
have an explanation? I would be very happy to learn how this submission
really works.
