[Php-java-bridge-users] Integrating phpJavaBridge for usage with Java EE/Spring: Refactoring - how & should I commit changes?

[<php...@li...>]

Hello,

I'm in the progress of creating an adapted version of the phpJavaBridge for
usage with, currently a Spring Web Context.

The idea behind it is:
I'm moving from a complex php-website to a java powered website. While in
the transition I want to code the java backend
and change the php-implementation piece by piece to use the java backend.
But I don't want the php-code to call whatever it
wants, I just want some specified services (interfaces, classes) available
to php. I want the transition as smooth as possible,
so extracting interfaces/data-methods in my php code which then calls the
services of the java backend. These services will
then be used by the final product of the transition.

For this, I'm currently refactoring some parts of the php-java-bridge to be
more losly coupled and allow the usage of
dependency injection frameworks (spring / guice / seam, etc. )

I want to specify in my Java-Application / servlet-configuration
a) which services should be available to php
b) which classes should php able to load, e.g. java.util.*, java.lang.*;
com.mydomain.app.domain.* etc.

My question now, as I'm planing to publish the resulting work as soon as
finished
a) do you want me to add it to your repository or publish it separatly
b) if you want me to publish it, where & how can I submit it to the
repository
c) are you even interested in these changes? Or do you simply don't care,
because the current code "just works"?

I want to publish this code, as soon as it's finished, maybe even some
middle steps before the final result.
Also I'm trying to create some uml-class diagrams to understand the
relationships between the classes of
the php-java-bridge.. is there a place i can add them to the documentation
part of the project, so to help other
people work with and understand the bridge?



thanks for your answers,
