From Cyclone3 Wiki

Cyclone3 XULadmin is a GUI tool for managing addons and several other framework features. This means it is mainly a content management tool. The GUI is based on the [XUL] technology and JavaScript . It is implemented as a Mozilla Firefox addon, which can be downloaded and installed.

XULadmin uses standard XML-based SOAP protocol to communicate with the Framework (eg. with http://cyclone3.org). This provides an interface for all the actions that can be executed in XULadmin (login, loading the content tree, creating a new article or uploading a new file). The communication is based on and works thanks to the AJAX technology.

What XULadmin does?

  • Using an XML protocol acquires data which is displayed to the user in the GUI
  • Sends requests to the back-end (framework) to execute changes

How is it connected?

  • Communicates with the back-end by means of a SOAP protocol (ie. a domain service run on the Cyclone3 Framework, eg. http://www.cyclone3.org/rpc).
