Zahida,
There are two different perspectives to consider:
1. The processor API, which allows you to implement your own processors.
2. The XPL pipeline engine API, which allows you to embed the pipeline engine in your application to run piplines.
For the processor API, see:
http://www.orbeon.com/ois/doc/reference-processor-api
as well as the Java processor documentation:
http://www.orbeon.com/ois/doc/processors-java
There is some Javadoc as well under doc/index.html, which is a little incomplete, I realize.
For the pipeline API, the main documentation at the moment is the page you pointed out:
http://www.orbeon.com/ois/doc/integration-pipeline-api
See also the source file OXF.java, which is the main command-line application class.
What information are you looking for that you think is missing? Just running a pipeline is actually a fairly simple matter. Where I see some documentation missing is:
1. Use of the ExternalContext interface by processors 2. Caching facilities offered to processors
Both of those areas are more related to the processor API.
To answer your second question, there is no guarantee that the documented API will never change (there is no W3C or POSIX spec for it!), but if it does it will be hopefully for good reasons, and we will try to keep backward compatibility if possible, especially if some users are depending on it.
