RIA Options and Springframework

[chenrici]

This quite a general question ;-)

What are the Option's for Rich Internet Application Technologie specially used with the Springframework in a Servlet Container (Tomcat eg.)

And where could i find further information?

Any input is greatly appreciated,
Christoph

As I see it, you have a couple of options:

1. Ajax - with projects like DWR (http://dwr.dev.java.net)
2. Flash - with projects like OpenLaszlo (http://www.openlaszlo.org)

DWR allows you to expose your Spring beans as JavaScript objects. With Laszlo, you'll need to expose your beans as web services, then talk to them with Laszlo's APIs.

Hope this helps,
