[opencms-dev] General Tecnical Information

[Daniel V. Viveiros]

Thank you very much for the answers. I just have one more question (referenced to the first question): how can I keep the content inside OpenCMS and just import it to a regular JSP in (perhaps) another webapp (not opencms.war)? Just some pages in my application uses content manager, so OpenCMS needs to be just another component. In other words, my developer´s team don´t have to know OpenCMS is there, just a couple of guys who will develop the content manager´s use cases.

Thanks again!

1- I´m desiging a enterprise portal and some pages need to have managed
content. How can I include content stored at OpenCMS´s VFS in a regular JSP?
I´ve tried to use taglibs but they are not writing anything in the output;
[Olli Aro] 

Is you JSP in OpenCMS? If  not then you are not able to use JSP include,
since I think it only works within a single webapp. One way to do this would
be to write a JSP within OpenCMS which returns your content body and then
include this within your external JSP using Sockets. 

2- Does OpenCMS have workflow (not tasks)? For example, some ordinary guy
create a content to publish and the manager has to approve this content;
[Olli Aro] 

OpenCMS has couple of default groups for this Users and Projectmanagers. If
your new content management group inherits from users then they can create
content but not publish and if your content management group inherits from
the Projectmanagers they can publish as well as create content. So, this
gives you 2 tier workflow and then you can use the tasks interface for
creating communication between the content editors and managers.

3- Can I schedule some content to be automaticaly published? For example: I
want to schedule some news to appear in the front page of an intranet for 3
days starting at some pre-defined date;
[Olli Aro] 

The version 5 does not have this functionality, however I have build a patch
for this and distributed it on this list couple times in past when someone
has been after the functionality (have not publish it as module because it
is a bit messy to install). I have heard that version 6 would also implement
this functionality. 

4- I want to know somes cases, success uses of OpenCMS. Can anyone help me
with that?
[Olli Aro] 

We have been using OpenCMS successfully with various public sector portal
projects in the UK since version 4.x and have been very happy with it. More
success stories can be found at
http://www.opencms.org/opencms/en/support/references/index.html in case you
have not been there already. 

Hopefully this helps,

Olli
