Thanks again for answering,
but I really think I'll have to drop my idea, as the new message is:

org.apache.cocoon.ProcessingException: Language
Exception:org.apache.cocoon.components.language.LanguageException: Error
compiling make1_xsp: Line 143, column 29: Identifier expected. Line 75,
column 13: class org.apache.cocoon.www.pages.make1_xsp must be declared
abstract. It does not define void generate() from class
org.apache.cocoon.generation.AbstractGenerator

I think it'll never end.
My aim is to add comments to long text following the TEI dtd.
The text is made, and a database stores the comments. The pages are then
build by xsl and substring before templates to inserts comments at the right
place. I thought I had better re-build each xsl when a comment was added to
db, or pages would take quite a long time to be made.

Here is the version of my make1.xsp, which engendered that error message.
I've tried (from a book on java) to add "abstract" in front of "class
make_xsl" or before public void main and even both, but with the same
results.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<xsp:page
          language="java"
          xmlns:xsp="http://apache.org/xsp";
          xmlns:esql="http://apache.org/cocoon/SQL/v2";>

<xsp:structure>
  <xsp:include>java.io.*</xsp:include>
</xsp:structure>

<xsp:logic>
class make_xsl {
   public void main(String[]) throws IOException {
 FileReader entree = new
FileReader(("http//:localhost/cocoon/test/make.xsl"));
  FileWriter sortie = new FileWriter("output.txt");
 int c;
 while ( (c = entree.read()) != -1 )
sortie.write(c);
sortie.close();
entree.close();
     }
}
</xsp:logic>

  <page>

<xsp:logic>
    make_xsl anObject = new make_xsl();
    anObject.main();
</xsp:logic>


If you see this, it works.

  </page>
</xsp:page>

I reckon you are busy so don't bother too much on me.
