Hi all!
I am currently working on the rendering of output for a show,
specifically orders, invoices and the like.
If what I found is right, OFBiz currently takes the conversion from
in-memory data to XSL-FO in one goal through FTL templates.
Would it be a) possible and b) desireable to make this a 2-step process,
i.e.:
1. have OFBiz generate XML, for example:
<order>
<head>
<party id="XX">
...
</party>
...
</head>
<items>
...
</items>
</order>
2. turn that XML into XSL-FO using an XSLT stylesheet.
I can for sure create FTL templates which generate the XML I am looking
for. But is there a mechanism for chaining the steps, i.e. FTL
processing, then XSLT processing, then FOP processing?
Does this make sense at all?
Regards,
Torsten
