RE: [SPAM] - repost : creation of UI from DB - Bayesian Filter
de tected spam
Hi!
Well, my objective is as follows :
The user will have the ability to decide what kind of layout he would like
to have. So, the first time he logs in , I will show him some UI which is
created by default. Then, the user will customize how and what data he
wants to see. This may be thru drag and drop in the UI itself. (Though, I
really have zero idea on how to do this!).
Then, he will save the configuration.(This is similar to the way yahoo works)
Now, when the UI comes up next time, there will not be any hard-coded
column names in the jsp
pages. Instead, the entire UI, ie look and feel, buttons or tabs, column
names will be taken from the DB and then generated.
I guess, you can call this 'on the fly'.
I am not clear abou the 'generate then deploy' approach.
Please elaborate on the same.
Thank You,
Richie
