BabelObjects is a template engine that separates presentation from logic.

BabelObjects provides a framework to write components you can reuse in different context (web, text, ...). These components can then be used through DreamWeaver with extensions, without programming skills.

Thanks to the framework, you will be able to call components in different languages through SOAP, .NET, ... to avoid to create the wheel again.

You can see a demo at : http://www.BabelObjects.Org/html/common/demo/bo

• INSTALL : how to install this package
• CONFIGURATION : how to configure BabelObjects to suit your system
• TODO : what will be done next
• BUGS : no bugs, just features :-) Tell me.

This distribution comes with one sample and tutorial programs in the BabelObjects/Component directory.

• Test/BabelObjects/Test.pm

  a test component that prints the famous 'hello world' you can use to develop components of your own

Other components can be downloaded from CPAN. For example :

• BabelObjects-Component-Data-Configurator.pm :

  a one shot installation and configuration program for complex applications installation

• BabelObjects-Component-Directory-Bookmark.pm :

  an open directory web application to view bookmarks ala Yahoo.

Thanks for reading!
