The WDDX module provides the bridge between the WDDX exchange format and BoxLang. It involves reading and parsing XML, converting data types, handling errors, and ensuring performance and compatibility. The module enables the integration of legacy systems with new applications.
It provides the wddx component along with its actions of bx2wddx, wddx2bx, bx2js and wddx2js. Note that if the compatibility module is installed in the BoxLang runtime, the usage of bx in the action changes to cfml.
Important Note: WDDX is, effectively, no longer supported for new development and its continued use as a data interchange format is is highly discouraged. This module should only be used to maintain compatibility for legacy code and developers should be encouraged to sunset its usage.
The compat module will contribute the following components globally:
- wddx ( e.g.
<cfwddx.../>and<bx:wddx.../>depending on the template type, andwddx...;in script )
BoxLang is a professional open-source project and it is completely funded by the community and Ortus Solutions, Corp.
