I have a content management system with its own system of templates and database stored-pages that I'm trying to integrate with laszlo.

The first trick is handing my dynamically generated LZX XML into the Laszlo compiler. I've seen examples for how to use a JSP to do this, but it's something of a hack for me right now. Ideally I could have just a straight-API call passing in a String of LZX XML and get a byte[] back of the generated movie.

That is somewhat manageable, but the real killer is dependencies. I simply do not have my media resources (JPGs, GIFs, mp3s, whatever) in the file system, they all are accessible via regular URLs through our content management system, or via Hibernate/JDBC if I could implement my own resource manager.

So for now I have no ability to include the media resources at compile-time, instead they have to be loaded at runtime. I looked into the API some (very new to all this code) and the compiler seems extremely tied to java.io.File.

Is there any thoughts in the future for a pluggable resource provider for the Laszlo compiler?
