Component : Java

Maintainer: alka13

The Java server side integration for FCKeditor. It is released a standalone package called "FCKeditor.Java".

Check out this component status.

Currently this page is intended as scratchpad for the Java Server side integration. Depending on the size of this sub-project, we may create more pages with further details.

Component Goals

  • Offer a Java class (probably a JavaBean) that generates the HTML that creates an FCKeditor.
  • Offer a Java Taglib based on the above mentioned JavaBean.
  • Offer options to enable / disable most of FCKeditors features from the JavaBean / Taglib.
  • The Java codebase should be generic, so that it can be easily used even in complex Java projects that make use of FCKeditors more advanced features.
  • The Java codebase should be cleanly written and fully documented using JavaDoc.
  • The Java codebase should have a small footprint not use too many external Java libraries.
  • The Java codebase should follow common Java coding standards (to be defined).
  • The Java codebase should contain JUnit test cases where possible.

Please note: This is just a first draft of the goals. Please comment / extend this with you own ideas. Once we agree on the goals, we should "freeze" them and start / continue to develop the real stuff.

TODO's

  • Define the team that works on the Java component.
  • Finalize the goals for the Java Server component (see above).
  • Agree on a common Java coding standard.
  • Stop talking and start coding :-)
