...I have read your summary and I think it is great. First question: Is the
paper the summary is based on "Open Source" :-) ?
Thanks - it is not a big paper actually, only a collection of examples with some explanations, meant to support a "live" workshop.
I will probably add the examples to the Cocoon samples once I find some time to package them into something useful.
...Right now, my facade and the business layer are on the same machine, but
in order to have my application distibuted I would like to connect the
bisiness layer via RMI and/or SOAP. So I have to extend my facade with
those facilities. Are there any "helpers" within the cocoon distribution
or do I have to implement the RMI/SOAP stuff myself?
For SOAP, the axis block contains examples and the required libraries.
I haven't checked if the examples include dynamic invokation, see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=107619342911531&w=2
RMI clients are really simple to implement and do not need much support from Cocoon. What I use sometimes in my (currently non-Cocoon) RMI applications are proxies which can automatically reconnect to an RMI server if the connection is lost, this is useful when running multiple services. But it shouldn't be hard to write your RMI clients or facades as Avalon components.
