LibreCCM
LibreCCM is a highly advanced (Web-) Content Management System based
on Java EE.
This is the next generation variant of LibreCCM. In this version which
currently developed in parallel with the current version, several custom APIs
like the persistence layer have been replaced with standard APIs from the
Java Community process.
Please note that this is a project in its early phase of development. Some
aspects may change without warning.
The most notable change is the move to JPA as
persistence layer. We are using Hibernate as implementation because
Hibernate currently provides one important feature which other JPA providers
do not provide: Versioned or better audited entities. This extension is
called Envers. Auditing is currently not part the JPA standard therefore
we need to use a specific implementation.
Another notable change is that the build system is now using
{{{http://maven.apache.org/}Apache Maven}}. The project is a standard
multi module project. More informations can be found at the
{{{./building.html}Building LibreCCM}} page.
For testing {{{http://junit.org/}JUnit 4}} is used. For testing Java EE
components like CDI beans the {{{http://arquillian.org/}Arquillian}} testing
platform is used. More details about the test system can be found on the
{{{./testing.html}Testing LibreCCM}} page.
Please note that this documentation is work in progress and is may
incomplete.
