Request Controller

Every generated output begins with a request that is intercepted by the components control-servlet. The servlet will look up the definition, inside the component’s controller.xml:

Annotation

 
 
 
 java
 
@ControllerConfig(description = "My first Webapp Controller")
public interface MyComponentController {}

@Request(
 uri = "main",
 secure = "true",
 auth = "true"
)
@Response(name = "success", type = "view", value = "main")
public interface Main {}

@View(
 name = "main",
 type = "screen",
 page = "component://mycomponent/widget/MyScreens.xml#main"
)
public interface MainView {}

Screens, Widgets & Decorators

Scipio ERP uses fragments of reusable code to put together individual screens. Screens can range from HTML or XML responses to PDFs. The rendering is usually triggered by an event, such a request processed by the controller . A screen consists of:

A Screen-Widget definition
A “decorator “, that specifies standards in an overarching layout, including other widgets
Multiple “Widgets ” (Code fragments) that make up the inner content of a screen. These can be:
1. Screen widgets
2. Menu Widgets
3. (Form Widgets)

Assuming that you’d want to generate a screen outlined in the image above (html response). Then you’d start by defining a screen widget in one of the screenwidget definition files within your component’s widget directory
