Hello,
I've finally managed to integrate an Orbeon form in one of our webapp page, thanks to some java trick that I'll post later but I cannot get that form answer : when I set a
in my XForm, it's submission doesn't work in my page.
Here's how my webapps are set :
- Orbeon is in tomcat webapps dir under "orbeon" directory
- my webapp is in tomcat webapps dir under "myapp" directory (for example)
Here's what I added to my web.xml file in myapp :
<filter>
<filter-name>ops-xforms-filter</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.orbeon.oxf.servlet.OPSXFormsFilter</filter-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>oxf.xforms.renderer.context</param-name>
<param-value>/orbeon</param-value>
</init-param>
</filter>
<!-- Any web resource under /xforms-jsp is processed by the XForms engine -->
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>ops-xforms-filter</filter-name>
<!--url-pattern>/jsp/site/*</url-pattern-->
<url-pattern>/xforms-jsp/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<!-- This is necessary so that XForms engine resources can be served appropriately -->
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>ops-xforms-filter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/orbeon/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
When myapp starts, it loads a jsp file : /jsp/site/index.jsp
I've added an orbeon form as an XPage so that it can be accessed from /jsp/site/index.jsp?page=xforms
In order to do that, I've written a custom ResponseWrapper from which I can retrieve the response stream (the generated HTML code for the given XForm) :
String ops ="/orbeon";
String srv="/xforms-renderer";
ServletContext opsContext = config.getServletContext().getContext(ops);
if (opsContext == null) throw new RuntimeException("can't find Orbeon context; tomcat /MYWEBAPP webapp is missing <Context crossContext='true' />");
RequestDispatcher dispatcher = opsContext.getRequestDispatcher(srv);
if (dispatcher == null) throw new RuntimeException("can't find Orbeon request dispatcher");
ReadableResponseWrapper wrapper = new ReadableResponseWrapper(response);
dispatcher.forward(request, wrapper);
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader ( wrapper.getInputStream() ) );
Thus I can put the generated HTML code in myapp page.
The problem, as you may see is that /jsp/site/ isn't filtered by Orbeon (or else it doesn't let me have my site pages displayed) and hence I cannot use any submission (GET/POST/PUT answers) from the generated form, which make them a bit useless, if not completely...
However if the form is in a filtered directory, the submission works well but the display lost (which is not acceptable).
Of course a way around would be to use iframes but it is not a solution at all as it would be an issue for accessibility.
Any idea in how to handle orbeon properly would be welcome...
Thanks,
Loceka.
