In development it would take a minute or two to fully translate our menu file (large chunk-o-javascript) with the XMLResourceBundle based approach. While some of the abstractions of the XMLResourceBundle are nice, it isn't really neccessary to parse an XPath each time a value is retrieved. I parse the i18n dictionaries at startup and store the key/values in an unsynchronized hashmap and the transformer flies now. Perhaps we can abstract out an interface for the I18nTransformer to talk to a catalogue/dictionary source so the XMLResourceBundle usage is optional?

I was sure that it was for exactly the same thing, though my information can be our of date, hadn't a look at it for a long time. Also, I can remember some Hashtables there, they should be replaced by HashMaps too. Yes, I did. It just moves the speed hit around a bit :) Also due to how we use the I18nTransformer, we pass our content through multiple times (2-3) with the first stage generating lots of misses, also expensive time-wise. Yes, that would be fine! I think that the best thing would be to separate dictionary handling from the transformer at all and use either a custom source, say: transform src=i18n:db:/catalogue/messages / or transform src=i18n:xml:/catalogue/messages /, or configure it like an SQL connection and use a short name of it for the transformer configuration/parameterization: transformer ... bundle-factoryxml/bundle-factory /transformer or something like that.

In my project source tree I have root | +- build/ | +- source/ | +- web/ | + WEB-INF/ | + lib/ And more, but that's the guts really. web is our version of the cocoon2 webapp folder, source is our personal source tree, and build is where we build the code. I don't sync with Cocoon proper on a regular basis, but when I do I: 1) Get latest of the Cocoon source 2) compile as: build -Dinclude.webapp.libs=yes webapp javadocs 3) copy the contents of the generated webapp/WEB-INF/lib into my corresponding folder 4) manually update my cocoon.xconf and logkit.xconf to match whatever new constructs/log targets have been added. Thus the cocoon.jar that I am using is always local to my project in its web/WEB-INF/lib directory (and same with all of the other jars that Cocoon depends upon).

map:transform type=statistics/
map:redirect-to uri=barrier/{1}/
/map:match
But both alternatives do not work after generator- and transformer-calls.
Do I oversee something ? Or do I have to implement an action...
I would recommend implementing an action and calling the action before the
generator. Once you start the SAX stream, you may no longer be able to

Re: Transformers vs. Generators
On Thursday 15 November 2001 11:50 am, you wrote: Okay, one piece of theoratical question. If I want to use xml data output from a bunch of EJBs (JBoss+Cocoon stuff), shall I better write a Transformer or a Generator for getting the data? I'd vote for Transformers, which looks for xml tags in a source xml like customer-data/, and replaces it with the business data coming from EJBs, which gets rendered by an other (eg. the default XSLT) Transformer right after. Is that the correct way handling the situation? That works, but exception handling that way can be a pain because you can only throw a SAXException once the transformer gets going. I recently refactored my project to use a lot of transformers, I think its more manageable that way. I have a transformer that inserts data similar to your need, and it works by loading the data in the setup() method, and then spitting it out once the appropriate tag is seen. I like that approach because if there is an error loading the data I can throw a ProcessingException and there is the chance for a nice error page to be shown to the user. Once the SAX stream starts going, an exception could result in a 1/2 rendered page for the client, not good IMHO. So my suggestion to you would be to see if you can load your customer data in the setup() of a transformer, and then only serialize it once the tag you are looking for is encountered. I hope that makes sense :) -pete -- peter royal - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Do you really gain in performance, or in architecture design? (I mean comparing this to util:include-file from XSP or Xinclude) More from the design standpoint. We're working on creating a web-based application here, and we have a single XML document that describes menus and different lists of data the user can display (defining columns, sorts, etc). At server startup this file is parsed and two types of objects are created from it, menu objects and list objects. To spit out a piece of the menu, I have a generator that looks up the appropriate menu node, and then calls toSAX on it, generating the event stream. While I could use XSP for this, the overhead of recompiling the XSP isn't worth it. My generator class is very simple. I guess other sources needs to be qualified a bit. If you are loading XML that can be represented via a URI, then the methods that you mention work fine. But if you want to generate XML from sources that cannot be represented as an URI, a generator is the way to go, imho. -pete -- peter royal - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What's wrong? This happens because Cocoon needs a DOM Level 2 implementation and you probably have a DOM Level 1 included in your classpath before xerces.jar. So, place the xerces.jar archive that comes with Cocoon before all the other jar packages in your classpath. Some servlet engines, such as Tomcat, construct a CLASSPATH automatically based on all the jar files in a lib directory. In this case, you may need to rename the jar file containing the DOM Level 1 (xml.jar or parser.jar) to something like zzz.jar to force it to come last, or even move it out of the lib directory altogether. If even that doesn't work, also check that there is no XML parser in your JDK's lib/ext or jre/lib/ext directories. If there is, remove it. Unfortunately, some servlet engines require DOM Level 1 to be ahead of DOM Level 2 in the CLASSPATH - conflicting with Cocoon!

Are there any editor which support XSP/JSP like mixed syntax? Not that I know of. We use XML Spy here for our XML/XSLT/XSP work. I've been following the trend that the logicsheets that are shipped with C2 use, which is to move most of the java code into a class module with static methods, and just put simple function calls in the logicsheet. That way you can write your class module in your favorite java IDE with all the bells and whistles, and you have minimized the amount of java code in your logicsheet. If you find that you do have an overwhelming need to put a decent amount of java code directly into the logicsheet, maybe JBuilder 5 has support for that. I know that they do ship a version of C1 with the program, and maybe it had support for XSP. As a last resort you could always use a JSP editor, and use the JSP syntax for editing, and then change the JSP code-marker tags to the XSP tags when you save the file. I think that'd be a PITA though. As a last resort, if you want to invest a small amount of time into making a solution for yourself, would be to check out the Multiple Major Modes package for Emacs (http://mmm-mode.sourceforge.net/). I'm sure Emacs has good support for Java code and XML (syntax highlighting for sure, but I'm uncertain about code insight-type features), and using the MMM package you can have multiple modes active in a single buffer. It was original designed for use with the HTML::Mason perl package, which uses markers like %perl and /%perl to delimit code sections. I'm sure you could modify it to check on xsp:logic and xsp:expr. With about 30m of work I was able to get it to work decently with XPathScript, a perl-and-XML language for the AxKit project.
