what about specifying the repo as parameter, e.g.
<map:generate src="jcr://..."> <map:parameter name="repo" value="..."/> </map:generate>
Because this is a source, not a generator. The parameter would be a parameter to the generator.
ok. Well, I thought the generator could pass it on to the source, but I guess I
don't fully understand how it should work. Will try to figure it out.
But on the other hand I don't fully understand why Sylvan would like to use
jcrX://... instead of jcr://X/... as Stefano suggested, which seems to make
more sense.
same here.
The repository configuration could be done in the source configuration (.xconf) but I guess that Sylvain is aware of this ;-)
My suggestion of having different protocols for different repositories comes from lazyness as with jcr://repo/ the first path element has to be handled by the source factory implementation that then needs to call the appropriate repository (and also manage a collection of repositories) whereas having several protocols allows all this stuff to be handled automatically by the service manager and the source resolver.
Or we could also have a RepositorySelector and select a repository using the first path element. Hmm... that may be a good option as an application also need to access a repository directly and not only through a source. Hmm...
