I'm trying to get my head round SourceResolving and would be grateful for clarification.
There appear to be at a number of SourceResolver classes: > org.apache.excalibur.source.SourceResolver > org.apache.avalon.excalibur.source.SourceResolver > org.apache.cocoon.environment.SourceResolver I want to use a SourceResolver in one Component but in two different kinds of context. In the first case, I would like to use a SourceResolver during Configuration to obtain a ModifiableSource relative to the root context, and then refer to it from time to time. I think that I need something like this... > this.resolver = (SourceResolver) > this.manager.lookup(SourceResolver.ROLE); > Source source = this.resolver.resolveURI("context://path/to/file"); > // Do something with source > > // After a while... (when source may have changed) > if (source instanceof ModifiableSource) { > ( (ModifiableSource) source).refresh() > } > // Do something else with source > > // Finally (not sure if this is required) > this.resolver.release(source); In the second case I would like to be able to use a SourceResolver to obtain a Source relative to current context when this component is called from within another sitemap component. In these cases a SourceResolver is already passed to the Action or Generator, so I can pass this on to my component for use. Stuart.
