    Thank you for the link!
    It's certainly relevant.

    However, the information in the thread almost raises more questions than it answers. I will post these questions there, to avoid fragmentation.

  • on-the-fly creating/modifying DataSource XMLs on the server side

    Dear Isomorphic,

    I would like to create (or modify) the ds.xml files in shared/ds on the fly.

    (Of course, this only makes sense before the client downloads the DS, so this would happen right after server startup.)

    I could mess with the XML file directly, but I guess there must be some higher-level way of doing this. (For example, VisualBuilder is saving such DS XML files.)

    What is the recommended approach for doing this?

    Background: the current concept of DataSources is indeed a powerful and well thought-out one, but I still miss some of the features of my previous (home-made) framework. Specifically, when handling relationships between entities, I would like to describe things on a higher level than I currently have to. So, instead of adding SQL templates manually (and so on), I would like to do this automatically, based on some other configuration.
Working...
