Forest Web Application Builder Released

The first version of the Forest Web Application Builder is available. This version is based on the version 1.3 of the Oak and Oak-Web perl modules.

*How it works?*

On the first version it manage the XML of top-level components for a Oak::Web::Application. You can design the interface for a Oak::Web::Page or a Oak::Web::Additional::Included and then use the XML in your application.

*How can I use it?*

To use the Forest Web Application Builder, you must use the Oak framework. Using the Oak::Web::Application object.

*And how Oak::Web::Application works?*

It looks like a delphi application. You define the top-level components, defining also the class of the component and the XML file of the component. Then you say which is the default component. The default component is the component that will be shown when the first submission is made. The rest is events... You can define, for example, an ev_onClick event for a submit button, the ev_onClick contains a call to a method that will be executed. And in this method you will call show of another page.
