Journal TekZen's Journal: J2EE + .NET + PHP = CEP
First off, we are changing the module lifecycle to something like:
- authenticate (if needed)
- verify permissions
- init module
- handle events
- display
- destroy
We have also made some decisions to include more code in the core framework. We are no longer going to just provide "example" modules and libraries. We are going to provide some more serious functionality out of the box (group document management system, user/permission management tools, etc). In addition we are also looking to provide native ports of a few successful PHP projects (coWoki, Serendipity, etc).
In order to do this we are going to include some reusable components in the core framework. Including an OOP interface to the HTMLarea WYSIWYG tool.
For all of the components and modules they are only going to output XML that will be transformed with XSLT. We hope to get to a point where developers can set styles and attributes of components and modules through an OOP interface and without touching any XSL files.
We are not sure if we are going to still use a templating system for the final output or if we are going to move that to XML/XSLT too.
Sound interesting? Visit our Sourceforge page. Feel free to join the developer list or post comments in the CEP section at TekZen.
