Hi, We are new to Cocoon here, and hope to use it in an application in which we will make heavy use of ESQL with Oracle 8i. I have two basic questions:
First, regarding documentation: The ESQL examples, as well as the ESQL schema and Taglib documentation page, all have been very useful to get us up and running. Before delving directly into the esql logicsheet next, can anybody point me to any other existing docs -- formal, informal, whatever -- on the ESQL taglib itself that can supplement what is provided with official C2 distribution? Second, I am setting up a bare-bones test environment for executing ESQL queries and sending the serialized XML to my browser without additional transformations... This was easy using the file generator, SQL transformer, and xml serializer. This allowed me to process any old XML file with <execute-query> etc. elements using the namespace xmlns:sql="http://apache.org/cocoon/SQL/2.0";. But -- please bear with me here -- to use ESQL (updated schema and ESQL logicsheet) I think I will need to use the "serverpages" generator (along with compliant XSP pages) since this is an XSP logicsheet. Since I would still like to serialize result as plain XML and strip out extraneous tags, I am applying a simple XSLT transformer and XML serializer. This works fine but is this the most "stripped down" way to use the ESQL taglib, or could I utilize ESQL outside of XSP?
