Nick change: btami -> btami_away johannes (~johannes@M1264P006.adsl.highway.telekom.at) left irc: "Client Exiting" icltlfatppl is an accountant company using sql-ledger for companies or the individual companies sql-ledger? The individual companies. I manage three companies right now, and for one the bookkeeper moved to france, so I wanted to keep her and I set her up with sql-ledger. The second company I just started, and I wanted to go with something free that I understood and was web based. It's very handy. interesting. I see it the same way I see RT or Squirrelmail. No reason it shouldn't integrate with GNUe. Those apps aren't exactly three teir, unfortunately. It's possible to make a web app three tier, but you have to seperate code for generating the web interface from decision making code. There is a protocol for the data tier, always a protocol for that. But server side interface scripting gets used for logic. That makes it hard to re-use these web apps. One alternative is to graft a control protocol onto them, if they don't offer it already Actually, it's the only practical alternative in most cases. Case in point is Interchange. No way anyone is going to plug serious logic underneath that beast. But they have a SOAP interface that just might work. There should be a law. Requiring people developing killer web apps to either stick to three teir network design and put a protocol in between their interfaces and their logic, or design with a comprehensive API available via a commodity protocol (distant second best). Lets say I want to develop a CRM application. I decide to go with the old school crowd an look at the interfaces to the customer. I've got apps for phone/call center, email, im, personal information management, etc. that can at least interface to the data tier. What happens when I want to throw my gnue logic tier in there? O.K. I'll tell you. I have to look at these presentation level apps (and they cover a lot more than presentation, but from my CRM view they don't) and stick something in between them and the data tier. 2 tier gnue apps are out there. 3 tier not sure if any productive. ->gnue application server still lot of work in progress (siesel, reinhard main developers for app server) How about interfaces to other applications? Something equivalent to interfacing a GNUe sales app to SQL-Ledger. gnue forms (presentaion layer) likes to talk to databases. not sure if non-databases are supported yet. jamest is gnue-common man SachaS: Sorry to ramble so much, but I've got a weak grasp of gnue architechture. I have been following it, but haven't checked the architecture diagram for years. i am not a gnue developer so stay suspicious about my comments :) Let's agree to be co-backseat drivers! gnue-common is about communication eg forms - database gnue-forms presentation of forms - user input output Well, what if I want to write a non-form object, something that is just a logic method, and it will need to swap out depending on changes in data. Take the CRM example I have an object that monitors the inbound traffic to my company, and based on algorithm x, it prioritizes it. This happens all the time in call centers. gnue-report creating reports (pdf etc) ok A common algorithm might be to bring the customers worth the most money to the front of a call center queue or support queue A different algorithm might get applied, or a more complex one, based on business changes. For instance, most of the phone companies actually make people who are "willing" to wait on hold, or have a history of waiting long periods, wait longer. Sucks, doesn't it. Anyway, there are lots of examples of queue prioritization, that's just one business object. most of the phone companies??? SBC, AT&T, et al. bad guy :( So my architecture question is, where does a business logic object fit into gnue? business logic objects currently there is logic in the form (presentation) when application server is ready there can be business logic objects in the appserver use this info with cautious :) guess these are central questions, so not sure what the gnue-developers have decided on Components like app server usually get ignored. That's how things get done quickly. Still, there ought to be a law. It's quite painful trying to integrate an open source business environment built from 2-tier apps.
