Hello, If I modify sitemap.xmap during runtime, the Cocoon 2 system notices this change, and attempts to recompile the map. I see this exception in the cocoon.log file: ERROR 33448 [cocoon ] (Thread-6): Error compiling sitemap java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.cocoon.environment.AbstractEnvironment.resolve(AbstractEnvironmen t.java:206) at org.apache.cocoon.components.language.generator.ProgramGeneratorImpl.generat eResource(ProgramGeneratorImpl.java:230) at org.apache.cocoon.components.language.generator.ProgramGeneratorImpl.load(Pr ogramGeneratorImpl.java:206) at org.apache.cocoon.sitemap.Handler.run(Handler.java:224) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:498) Not sure if anyone else sees this error. Doesn't seem to affect the running of the system. I am forced to restart Servlet engine (Resin 2.0) to recompile the sitemap. I am using the IBM JDK 1.3 on Linux 2.2.
