Forum OpenACS Development: Response to ecommerce: reason behind item-quantity-change design

I am working on releasing it. I have recently discussed this with Don. The requirements are that the package gets ported to Oracle. It is currently written for PostgreSQL.

Notes:

  • Merchant-System relies on Query-Writer for insert/update/delete operations. This has to be ported first to Oracle. It is available from http://multi.zmbh.com:8300/query-writer-0.5.3.apm
  • This package is about 240 files, with only a few .xql files, but the customer UI is very small and simple. My thought was that each site would want their own method of organizing the ui, I didn't spend much time on that part.
  • This package doesn't have an interface with a payment gateway. It should be easy to add because the coded doesn't really rely on how the order state change is triggered. This trigger pushes the order along.
