Warp SDK

4WS.Platform is a product created starting from Warp, an open source framework based on JEE 5/6 that adds more powerful features to JEE 5 and 6 and to Sencha ExtJS 3.4.It can be used to develop rich web applications, based on JPA, JDBC, EJB, Java Beans, JAX-RS, ExtJS technologies .

Basically, Warp is a series of software layers, one for each application tier, that manage a specific task:

• Warp.ExtJS is an extension to the Sencha components ExtJS 3.3.1 and enriches them by providing more powerful features, including:

  • editable grids with multi-sorting, quick filter, persistent storage of last applied settings (filtering/sorting conditions, columns width, columns position/visibility), binding to a CRUD buttons palette

  • data export from grid

  • editable detail forms with binding to a CRUD buttons palette

  • code selectors

• Warp.Rest is a library to use when developing Restful web services invoked by the ExtJS tier; this layer automates and simplifies the retrieval of data coming from the ExtJS components, such as filtering/sorting conditions, data to and from grids/forms or other graphics components.

• Warp.Server is a library used on the server tier to make it easier the development of the business logic, based on JPA or JDBC; it simplifies the fetching of list of objects filtered/sorted according to conditions coming from the Rest/ExtJS tiers.
