http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32541 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-12-08 14:32 ------- In fact, my transformer isn�t a real include transformer, since it doesn�t act as a content aggregator. More I think on it, and more I believe HTTPRequestTransformer should be a more appropriate name. I wrote this transformer because I didn't want to use the SourceWriting Transformer hack for doing SOAP call (it is not its function anyway). Since SOAP call is POST request containing XML, I thought of writing a transformer able to do (at least) GET and POST requests. The transformer is useful in many use cases like doing Google search, retrieving stock quotes, post form etc. Beside that, you can specify header-request to pass additional information about the request, and about the client itself, to the server (like cookies). In addition, the transformer supports challenge-response authentication mechanisms (Basic and Digest) which can be used by a server to challenge a client request and by a client to provide authentication information. It also support NTLM authentication. Finally, it uses JTidy for formatting HTML content in XHTML format. You can�t do all these stuffs with the CInclude Transformer, unless I misunderstood. I saw a real need on the user mailing list for such a transformer and I thought sharing it with the Cocoon community would be profitable.
