Support Forums: Message List - AribaWeb Framework becomes open source

... or still hot?

Wed, 08 Sep 2010 03:05:26 -0400

I got the Preview 4 from May '10 and I'm impressed how easy it is to create and extend a DB-based AJAX-enabled web application. I can see that the AribaWeb Forums aren't heavily used because the framework is (mostly) just doing what it should and...

dead?

Really like the flexibility provided by the metadata driven approach with AW's MetaUI. Concerned that the project is now dead though. Craig gone back to Apple? Anyone know what's happening at Ariba?

Aribaweb Rocks!

I love java but I haven't been able to use it for ages because being the single developer at a small business forced me to use other languages PHP/Python to get things done quickly on the web. Along comes AribaWeb with its flexible domain model and...

Support for OpenXava annotations in AribaWeb?

Mon, 23 Feb 2009 11:11:20 -0500

We'll take a look! (Generally, adding support for new annotations to metaui is easy: you could even do it yourself by registering a few annotation listeners in your module initialization code -- still it would be higher leverage if we provided this...

Both frameworks uses JPA annotations, but each also use their own annotations (ie, AribaWeb has Action, Property, Trait), but it is very possible that a class can work with both frameworks at the baisc level.

Session timeout can still happen. What Ariba's apps do is set a "SessionManager" that will pop a panel on the client browser warning them of a pending session timeout (about 5 minutes before the timeout). The user can then select to extend the timeout....

State Management / Wicket

Sat, 21 Feb 2009 18:05:38 -0500

One thing to keep in mind when comparing AribaWeb's state model with that of Wicket: AW supports (and makes extensive us of) *stateless sub-components*. This means that if your app has a page that is, say, rendering a list of 1000 products and those...

I read in the Ariba site:

This seems very alike OpenXava.

>Wicket, AW transparently manages component server state

Does this mean AW keep page object states on the server side just like Wicket?

That is right. Page state and page history is kept on the server side.
