Hi Cristiano,

great to hear what you are doing.

Obviously we havnt tried a touch screen desktop point of sale before with Riena. So you have to find out for yourself how to do the virtual keyboard.
well, I had to construct one once but using swing... I don't think that would be muuuch difficult do the same with swt... at least I think :) 


Also not sure if the fastview thing for navigation is such a good idea. Since you cannot hover on a touch screen, its tricky to let the view fly in again, when you need it.
You are right, we can't hover with TS. But I was thinking about some small button on corner that could be pressed to show the module view again. it is possible? 
Could you point me to some place to read about the tricky you refer?


The rest seems to be just a matter of doing it.

;-) yep... I already started to play....
So there is obviously no built-in integration for JBPM or a Rules server in Riena.
JBPM and Drools are services, probably I will install them as bundles together with Riena ones. What I'm investigating now is WHERE and in WHICH moment at Riena I will apply them...
Reading a little bit the wiki it seems that UI Filter is the peace that I will use with Drools... not sure about JBPM yet... 


Keep us posted how you are doing and if there is anything that stops you from having success that we can fix in Riena.


ok, thanks

Hi guys,

I have some master requirements for one system module that I'm planing
to implement using Riena (I think its features could help, as
communications, security, client monitoring, p2 update and others).
I would like to exchange some words, and maybe someone already had some
experience in this subject and could help me measure the challenge ...

The module is a kind of desktop Point of Sale and It needs to:

- run in a full screen mode.
   -- * already tested with SWT.shell.setFullScreen that works properly...

-  run in a touchscreen station (without a physical keyboard). because
this I need some changes on default main interface:
    -- As I need to put big buttons on screen, probably I'll need to
hide the module menu (perhaps as a fast view if possible);
    -- need to create a virtual keyboard;
    -- Login display should show all registered employers with
credentials to login and use the virtual keyboard to type the password.

- be able to work offline (if server, or network go down)...
  -- need to show the connection status on status bar
  -- need to sync local data persisted on off-line mode when went
on-line again

- need to integrate with JBPM and Rules server
-- user interface will change according to process and rules stages;

- need to access local devices as Printer and IR barcode reader

any tip will be welcome.

thanks

Cristiano
