RE: [Mav-user] I want to switch to Maverick....

To answer your last question, maybe you can split your xml file using external 
entities (as explained f.e. here: 
http://xml.oreilly.com/news/learningxml_0101.html?CMP=ILC-0PY480989785). Though I did 
not use this personally with the maverick xml file, it should work with any xml file.

Re: [Mav-user] I want to switch to Maverick....

2004-06-15 Thread Eelco Hillenius
1. It sounds to me that you do not need a lot of different commands, but
possibly a lot of different views... If you need to do some Java action on a
specific request, you can do that with a controller. You will (probably) at
least end up with the number commands that you need to have controller
classes. On the other hand, if most of your processing actually takes place
in the XSL processing, and most of the time your controller does little more
than just getting the XML from your XML repository, you could just define
one command for that, and e.g. use a request parameter to figurure out which
view (and thus which XSL transform) to use.

2. If the above works for you, your configuration file is probably not that
big. Note that you can define your views globally (with all the transforms
etc.) and reference them in the command definitions. If it still is too big,
see if pre-prosessing the config file with XSLT works for you. See
configuration option 'configTransform'.

Subject: [Mav-user] I want to switch to Maverick


 Hi,

 We have used Cocoon for 2 years and sadly it has evolved into a 234 armed
 octopus.
 Last night I was again trying to fix another Cocoon2 issue, and in
 desperation I started googleing for another java xml xslt framework than
 Cocoon.

 After a some time I ended up with Maverick.java

 We are running a live website using Cocoon2/eXist xmldb/xslt/jBoss and if
 possible move slowly towards Maverick, implementing the Maverick servlet
 alongside the cocoon servlet.

 I have read the manual looked at the examples downloaded the source and is
 very impressed of the simplicity of this implementation.


 1. we have a ton of xml docs located in the eXist db. They are all
transformed
 using xslt and serialized as html. I can do all this using xslt in Mav.
 without any problem but how do I serve all these html pages just using one
 command (is this right).

 1a. can i use wildcard/regex in the command name=product_* ?

 3. what html form template/validation system is the defacto standard with
Mav.

 4. does it require 2 Mav. servlets to serve /product/xx.html and
 /distros/xx.html.

 5. can is split the maverick.xml file into more files so it would be
easier to
 manage. (some of our cocoon.xml files are +1500 lines)


 Thanks in advance.

Re: [Mav-user] I want to switch to Maverick....

2004-06-15 Thread Peter
Hi Eelco,

Thank you for your reply - you are spot on in your assumption.
I am now trying to implement a first try of Mav and find  it is so simple 
and clean compared to Cocoon. 

To illustrate my problem described in my previous post.

eg: http://easyspeedy.com/products/pricelist.html 
http://easyspeedy.com/products/datatransferusage.html
is this the way to implement one directory many different documents command.

command name=products
!-- somehow get hold of the request param--
 view path={here I would like to have $documentname}.xml/
/command

or should i implement the ShuntFactory interface to make my own controller 
that exposes the request obj ? 

Peter
