I submitted bug COCOON-1816 because the cocoon object model was not
set up in a way that I expected. It cost hours of lost productivity
only to find out I have to bounce my processing for a static page
(with a couple variable pieces) through a flowscript just to access
cocoon.request. To me that is an example of something that can be
fixed to improve the perceived simplicity of the system. It seems
unreasonable to require Flowscript first for a largely static
page--nothing has to be set up, I just need to get a bit of
information from the request object.
I believe the cocoon object model is a great selling point--as long as
it is set up consistently and available to all sitemap components
without forcing one component to be executed before another. Not all
problems require flowscript.
Is the COM strictly tied to the flowscript engine? Is there any way
we can safely and simply extract that out?
yes, IIRC this is a problem of JXTemplate(Generator|Transformer) and
should be solved by the backported template block. I'm sure that Leszek
can tell us more about this.
I am sorry not to reply to the list for some weeks now. I am buried
under tons of work.
The backported template block effectively solves the problem described.
The main problem was the inconsistency between direct invocation from
sitemap ( request.something was only available ) and from flowscript (
cocoon.request.something available ).
