Integrated deployment of JSP and Xforms

Hello, Alex,
Under Orbeon 3.9, we used the integrated deployment of JSP and Xforms for a custom application.  Under Orbeon 4.10, the jsp seems to be only partially working.  It seems integrated deployment was deprecated in 4.5 according to http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/developer-guide/xforms-with-java-applications .  Does this mean that it just will not work anymore, and you have to move to a seperate deployment?  If so, why are there still xforms-jsp examples in Orbeon 4.10? Thank you~


Henry

Hi Henry,

Integrated deployment should still work. We deprecated it as we think separate deployment is a superior alternative, and prefer not to spend cycles supporting, testing, and documenting the integrated deployment going forward.

However, if you have something that is working with integrated deployment, I would imagine it could still work with 4.10. What is the issue you're seeing? Is this something we would be able to reproduce?

Alex

Hi, Alex,
 
The problem we are seeing is that no instances are loading when we access form=RM-999-FM-01. Attachment below are index.jspindex.jspunder set-viewer folder and model.xhtmlview.xhtmlunder RM-999-FM-01 folder.

Henry,

I am seeing that the index.jsp is loading many more files that I don't have. Would you be able to simplify the test case so it doesn't require or include all those files?

Alex

Hi Alex,

I've simplified Henry's test case for you here (I work with Henry). Part
of the problem is related to namespaces, and another part is related to
nested includes.

The following works in 3.9:

/xforms-jsp/custom/index.jsp:

<xh:html
     xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"
     xmlns:xxi="http://orbeon.org/oxf/xml/xinclude"
     xmlns:xf="http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms"

     xmlns:xh="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
     xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

     <xh:head>
         <xh:title>Nested includes</xh:title>
         <xf:model>
             <xi:include href="oxf:///apps/model.xhtml"
xxi:omit-xml-base="true" />
         </xf:model>
     </xh:head>
     <xh:body>
         <xh:div class="container">
             <xh:h1>Nested includes example</xh:h1>
         </xh:div>
    <fr:xforms-inspector/>
     </xh:body>
</xh:html>

/apps/model.xhtml:

<include
     xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"
     xmlns:xxi="http://orbeon.org/oxf/xml/xinclude"
     xmlns:xf="http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms"
     xmlns:xxf="http://orbeon.org/oxf/xml/xforms"
     xmlns:fr="http://orbeon.org/oxf/xml/form-runner"
     xmlns:xh="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
     xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

         <xf:instance id="some-id">
                 <data/>
         </xf:instance>

         <xi:include href="/apps/model2.xhtml"/>
</include>

/apps/model2.xhtml
<include
     xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"
     xmlns:xxi="http://orbeon.org/oxf/xml/xinclude"
     xmlns:xf="http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms"
     xmlns:xxf="http://orbeon.org/oxf/xml/xforms"
     xmlns:fr="http://orbeon.org/oxf/xml/form-runner"
     xmlns:xh="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
     xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

         <xf:instance id="some-id2">
                 <data/>
         </xf:instance>

</include>

When I say "works", I mean you can navigate to
"http://...:8080/orbeon3.9/xforms-jsp/custom/" and via the xforms
inspector, you see both instances ("some-id" and "some-id2" from each of
the included files).

Under 4.10, the includes won't load.  If we try the trick of the
xpointer="xpath(/*/*)" on the xi:include, then we get an Orbeon error
page.  I've tracked this down the nested include... "/apps/model2.xhtml"
is not found.

Hi Bob,

Adding xpointer="xpath(/*/*)" on both <xi:include> works for me. Here are the files I have:

https://gist.github.com/avernet/1d3af554fe96f95895e8

You'll let me know if this works for you.

Alex

I noticed you added "oxf:" to your href in model.xhtml.

This does indeed work for this example, but will this same technique
work from non-jsp pages as well?  (I have included files shared between
JSP and non-JSP pages).

Thanks!

Hi Bob,

Yes, you can also use oxf:/ if you're not in a JSP, and it will work in the same way.

Alex

Excellent, thanks Alex!  This should clear up many of our issues.
