JS Domain evaluation

[linvicch]

Hi, I have to say I am starting to lose faith in JS pro especially while playing around with domain. Firstly from my previous post,  I erraticly receive  JSON exception thrown which no one seem to have an ans to.

secondly, there doesn't seem to be a way for me to display my tables or results easily to validate that the query have been parsed correctly. A simple output of the sql would have been handy.

Thirdly, building the domain using the domain builder doesn't allow me to use aliasing while dragging or selecting the table. this causes alot of confusion because imagine if we have a table call tableA

tableA.id1=tableB.id

tableA.id2=tableB.id

tableA.id3=tableB.id

if I am unable to set a  meaningful aliasing for tableB, it is easy to get confused

Fourthly, while selecting the field to be display,  the source of the property is ALWAYS too long for me to be able to view the source in one glance. 19" monitor.

If i am wrong with any of the points above, please do correct me :) I really like the concept of the domain since if we have any future changes made to the business, we theortically will be able to make the appropriate changes at the data layer, abstracting it away from the presentation layer

JasperAnalysis, uploading a validated schema by jasper workbench only to receive a invalid schema or some other error due to schema structure is a common occurance.

OK, good feedback.

 

There was a workaround for the JSON error - remove returns from the query string.

 

The usability issues in the domain designer are noted.

 

Hopefully, have called out the problems with the workbench. We know there is an issue with reloading a schema over an existing schema in the repository, otherwise the schema changes are ignored. You need to restart the server after uploading the schema, or save it as a different name or folder in the repository. If this does not fix things, let us know.
