Project Goal

Develope an adapter to expose NexJ Express Server objects using JSON

Current Status

Phase 10: Apply Changes as per Code Review 4
Ongoing...

Project Phases

Phase 1: Design Proposal (Done)

  • Get requirements from NexJ
  • Incorporate requirements from NexJ into Design of JSON Adapater
  • Proposal proposal for review, make changes as by NexJ until approved

Phase 2: Coding (Done)

  • JSONMarshaller
    • Develop marshaller to transform NexJ Server Objects into JSON representation
  • JSONUnmarshaller
    • Develop an marshaller to transform JSON representation into NexJ Server Objects
  • JSON Server
    • Develop a JSON Server to expose NexJ Server objects in JSON
  • Demo application that interacts with the Server using JSON
    • Read Server Objects
    • Update Server Objects
    • Create Server objects

Phase 3: Code Review 1 (Done)

  • Send patch to NexJ for review

Phase 4: Make Changes as per Code Review 1 (Done)
