Query regarding Cocoon Forms:JxForms,Wody,CForms
Hi all,
Was going thru the Cocoon forms site.
Found out that there are various ways of coding using cocoon forms
namely JXForms, Woody and CForms. I would like to know which is
recommended.
As per the Cocoon site : -
http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/forms/#Introduction
Cocoon has an advanced form framework. It is simply called "Forms" or
"Cocoon Forms", but mostly referred to as CForms. Previously it was
called "Woody".
WARNING: CForms is still under development. We are currently working
towards its first stable release.
Also found the following from Cocoon Docs: -
Woody is another form framework that can be used in your Flowscripts.
Woody is marked as "unstable" block because it is under active
development!
Would appreciate if someone can let me know what is the difference
between these and what is recommended.
Also would be grateful if someone can point out what the following code
snippet (XML File) is written in (JX Forms, Woody or CForms)
form xmlns="http://apache.org/cocoon/forms/1.0#definition"
xmlns:i18n="http://apache.org/cocoon/i18n/2.1">
<widgets>
<field id="displayMode" required="true">
<label><i18n:text>Test Format</i18n:text></label>
<datatype base="string" />
<selection-list>
<item value=" Apple ">
<label>Apple</label>
</item>
<item value=" Oranges ">
<label>Oranges</label>
</item>
</selection-list>
</field>
<field id="selectFields">
<label><i18n:text>Select fields in desired
order:</i18n:text></label>
<datatype base="string" />
</field>
<repeater id="entries" initial-size="1">
<widgets>
<field id="name" required="true">
<label><i18n:text>Field</i18n:text></label>
<datatype base="string" />
<selection-list src="cocoon:/select-fields/Display"
dynamic="true" />
</field>
<row-action id="add-entry" action-command="add-after">
<label>Add</label>
</row-action>
<row-action id="delete-entry" action-command="delete">
<label>Remove</label>
</row-action>
</widgets>
</repeater>

CForms is recommended, although it is not yet in a released Cocoon. Will
be in 2.1.5 expected on Friday.

If you find references to Woody on the site, please report them as they
need removing/replacing.

It is a CForms form definition file, as you can see from the namespace
definition at the top.
