Hello Oleg,

first the bad news: XMLForms is deprecated. The good news: The recommended form framework for Cocoon is Woody. I never have used it until now, but it seems to be much more sophisticated.

The second part is SOAP. On a running Cocoon 2.1 system having the samples installed you can find the following:

http://127.0.0.1:8888/samples/soap/ with a description: "Cocoon ships with facilities for immediate connection to SOAP resources. These examples show you how to connect to any web service with a few lines of XML markup using SOAP XSP Logicsheet."

http://127.0.0.1:8888/samples/axis/status.xsp: "Examples using Apache Axis to give access to Cocoon via SOAP."

I hope it mets you needs.

Regards,

Joerg

I am working on a proof of concept demo to determine whether using some if the newer Cocoon 2.1 features makes sense in our application. The ultimate goal is to minimize the amount if Java code required to write,

The requirement is fairly simple:
-  Show a form to the user
- Validate the form
- Submit form values to a SOAP service

Now, there are the following constraints;
- We need the solution to be generic enough to be able to create new forms and access new soap services with minimal code changes; ideally it should be a matter of modifying an XML file




The calculator XMLForm example seems close enough except it is missing SOAP calls. I looked at AbstractControllerAction source code and noticed a comment that this is an experimental class. How experimental is it ? Are there any better ways to fulfill my proof of concept requirements ?

Kind regards,
Oleg
