I don't know how AxKit tracks dependancies - but I would have thought it possible to derive that if the original .xml hadn't changed and the .xsl hadn't changed, then the output of that translation (the XSP page) hadn't changed and therefore it wouldn't need to be re-compiled. But perhaps I'm asking too much ;-)
Yes, you'd be asking us to solve the Halting problem. :-)
Can you explain how the Halting problem applies in this situation? I would have though this was similar to the problem that 'make' faces and solves.
But now I've seen more of what you want to achieve I've realised that all you need is a plugin. And probably Apache::AxKit::Plugin::AddXSLParams::Request will do everything you need.
Ok - I hadn't seen that yet. It will certainly help, but it is limited to only allowing inserts of existing data (you can't do things like set cookies, or produce data from other perlish sources) - so it certainly isn't the magic bullet.
