Hi,
I'm writing a custom Source and SourceFactory for Cocoon, which takes
uris in this form: mysource:context://foo/bar.zip:mydir/myfile.gif.
The part between the two ":"'s is a "sub-uri", which I need to resolve.
How can I do this, so that any Cocoon URI works, for example:
cocoon://foo.bar and html://foo.bar ? The Source stuff seems to be
changed lately, so what is the right way to go?
Just implement a SourceFactory with your own Source - you can lookup
the SourceResolver in your implementation and use the resolver to
resolve any Cocoon uri. So in your example above, you have a factory
for your mysource: protocol and inside the factory you use the
resolver to resolve the context: protocol.
There is only one subtle trick with using a resolver inside a
source factory: you can't lookup this component inside the service()
method. If you do so, you end up in an initialization loop.
You have to do a lazy look up of the resolver: the first time you
really need it.
