This is what I really hoped to be able to do with SWT originally, I was building up to it in the samples in <slash-edit/>, but others beat me to find the problem ;) All my samples so far generate the whole source from the Request and do not generate from the source being altered, as you do. As a workaround, if you have data to insert into a larger source, try out Carsten's great new <source:insert/> addition to SWT (in the HEAD branch only), it allows you to do the insert XML into a Source using an XPath directly, not using XSLT as you are at the moment, saving you the need to Generate from the same Source as you are modifying. Meanwhile, it would be great to solve the problems with pipeline having simultaneous reads and writes to the same Source failing. Can this be "co-ordinated" at the Source level? TBH, I am still struggling to work out what could be going wrong. If SWT is writing the whole Source (to a temporary file), the FileGenerator must have finished reading that Source by the time SWT detects the closing <source:write> tag and, having already passed the closing tag of the Generated Source, attempts to replace the original Source file with the new one? regards Jeremy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
