Hi all,
the problem: i am in a Crisis-Team
for Covid, here in Italy. I have to create / modify some web forms in a
very short slice of time, because the rules / fields / informations
needed are always changing, day after day. The situation evolves
constantly, and so the requirements.
Until now, we have used
an automatic generator of php code (PhpMaker) to solve the first
requests. The people involved wanted some web forms to save / view
records stored in a db. But now, the requirements tends to become more
sophisticated, and PhpMaker has reached a limit.
So...
i think i could create some TAdvDBFormBox - like component for WebCore,
to maintain the "automatic" behavior of form generation, and use all
the freedom of WebCore to code the "dedicated complexity" of the
requirements.
Can you suggest me how to proceed
? Could i take, for example, the VCL TAdvDBFormBox code, and try to
convert it to FNC ? It's the wrong road ? Maybe it requires months of
work ? It's better to create from scratch the code to generate fields
automatically on the panel, based on field types ?
...Or it's better to learn to code in Php ?
Thank you, ciao !
Arnaldo
