That was also my first intention, but as others said, it should be the task of the container to do the job of compression (depending on the url pattern). I sent a patch for web.xml for this. This is the fastest solution. But: E.g. tomcat looks into the Request Header if the browser accepts gzip or zip. I you have a download programm which doesn't send this accept header, tomcat does not compress the output. Maybe for this or also to be independant of any url pattern a Helper class and a "compression" parameter to the serializer would be of interest. > > Ivelin Michael > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Enke, Michael" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2002 10:51 AM > Subject: Re: New ZipArchiveSerializer > > > Cool. > > But two questions: > > 1) can we configure if zip or gzip? > > 2) wouldn't it be better to add zip/gzip functionallity to > > AbstractSerializer so that we have it for all? > > I thing that someone want to have html zipped ... > > > > Michael > > > > > > Sylvain Wallez wrote: > > > > > > Hi team, > > > > > > I just added a new ZipArchiveSerializer that builds a zip file whose > > > entries are fetched from sources (including all of our fancy protocols). > > > > > > I wrote this to generate OpenOffice files, but this can be used to > > > generate any zip-based file format. > > > > > > Enjoy ! > > > > > > Sylvain > > > PS : I even wrote a (minimal) documentation ;-) > > > > > > -- > > > Sylvain Wallez Anyware Technologies > > > http://www.apache.org/~sylvain http://www.anyware-tech.com > > > { XML, Java, Cocoon, OpenSource }*{ Training, Consulting, Projects } > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
