ABOUT HELMA OBJECT PUBLISHER
|
||||||
|
============================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Helma Object Publisher is a web application server.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
With Helma Object Publisher (sometimes simply refered to as Helma or Hop) you
|
||||||
|
can define Objects and map them to a relational database table. These so-called
|
||||||
|
HopObjects can be created, modified and deleted using a comfortable
|
||||||
|
object/container model. Hence, no manual fiddling around with database code is
|
||||||
|
necessary.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
HopObjects are extended JavaScript objects which can be scripted using
|
||||||
|
server-side JavaScript. Beyond the common JavaScript features, Helma provides
|
||||||
|
special "skin" and template functionalities which facilitate the rendering of
|
||||||
|
objects via a web interface.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Thanks to Helma's relational database mapping technology, HopObjects create a
|
||||||
|
hierarchical structure, the Url space of a Helma site. The parts between slashes
|
||||||
|
in a Helma Url represent HopObjects (similar to the document tree in static
|
||||||
|
sites). The Helma Url space can be thought of as an analogy to the Document
|
||||||
|
Object Model (Dom) in client-side JavaScript.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
