Hello everybody!

I would like to use javaflow from Cocoon 2.2 since javaflow offers more ways to test the code than flowscript. When I run the example I get the error message:

2008-04-16 11:18:13,839 ERROR http-8080-Processor25 org.apache.commons.javaflow.bytecode.StackRecorder - stack corruption. Is class org.apache.cocoon.components.flow.java.Invoker instrumented for javaflow? java.lang.IllegalStateException: stack corruption. Is class org.apache.cocoon.components.flow.java.Invoker instrumented for javaflow?

I think the main difference between Cocoon 2.1 and Cocoon 2.2 regarding javaflow is that javaflow is now based on commons.javaflow. commons.javaflow needs an enhancement of these classes, that are part of the continuation. So, we can't use the default system class loader. However, commons.javaflow provides an appropriate ContinuationClassLoader.

JavaInterpreter.java as part of cocoon-javaflow-impl still uses the default system class loader:

final Class clazz = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().loadClass(clazzName);

My idea is to replace it by ContinuationClassLoader

That's not a really good idea. In 2.2 javaflow basically works hand in hand with the RCL from JCI.

The idea is that you can basically point cocoon to your eclipse environment and JCI will pickup the class file changes whenever you change a class through eclipse ...and it will instrument it. This is for development.

For deployment the idea is that you should include the instrumentation phase into your build process. Unfortunately there is still only an ant task for it. The idea was to write a maven jci compiler plugin that would essentially replace the original maven one. Being more flexible and supporting things like instrumentations on compile time. But as I don't see that happen in the near future it might be easier to just turn the ant task into a very simple maven javaflow plugin ...or call the ant task from maven.

Important thing to note is that in 2.2 the instrument/don't instrumentation is handled via class separation - not a marker interface. So essentially you have one jar with your custom classes and one jar with your flow that should have been instrumented.

HTH
