Dear Cocoon users,
I need help in understanding the following xmap snippet
--------------
...
<map:selectors default="browser">
<map:selector logger="sitemap.selector.config" name="config"
src="org.apache.cocoon.selection.SimpleSelector" />
<map:selector logger="sitemap.selector.exists" name="exists"
src="org.apache.cocoon.selection.ResourceExistsSelector" />
</map:selectors>
...
<map:pipeline>
<map:match pattern="**book-*">
<map:select type="exists">
<!-- <map:when test="content/xdocs/{1}book.xml"> -->
*** <map:when test="{1}book.xml">
<!-- If a hand-created book.xml exists, use it -->
<map:parameter name="url" value="{1}book.xml" />
<!-- <map:generate src="content/xdocs/{1}book.xml" /> -->
<map:generate src="{1}book.xml" />
<map:serialize type="xml"/>
</map:when>
<map:otherwise>
<!-- If no book.xml, generate it from the linkmap. -->
<!-- <map:generate src="cocoon:/{1}menulinks-{2}" />
--> <!-- The above generates the subset of the linkmap
relevant to our directory. -->
<!-- <map:transform src="resources/stylesheets/site2book.xsl"
/>
-->
<map:parameter name="url" value="{1}book.xml" />
*** <map:generate src="{1}book.xml" />
<map:serialize type="xml"/>
</map:otherwise>
</map:select>
</map:match>
...
<map:pipeline>
-------------------------------
the xmap is copied from the forrest app (menu.xmap) and modified for my
path structure. I also did set the otherwise case to read the book.xml
by default.
Here is my question. I can't figure out, why the first line marked with
"***" does fail to recognize the existence of the file {1}book.xml (it
always executes the otherwise case), if the second line marked with
"***" does read it with no complaint.
Any ideas? Is the class that defines the "exists" type for the selector
known to be brocken? Could I illigally/falsly have overwritten the
"exists" type?
Thanks for the help
K<o>
