Here is the binding framework missing, I think. Is your solution
without
using the binding framework? How is the binding form vars <=> input
xml
doc done?
It's just shortened to the necessary :) Yes, the standard function needs
some parameters.
No problem. Just want to clarify it! ;-)

This is not as easy. Because my transformer has configuration files
and
so on.
What does "configuration files" mean? The component I think about is
just the same like the transformer, but only misses the implementation
of the transformer interface. So I see no problem to extract the
"connect to backend" logic from your transformer. Both the generator and
the transformer use this component then.
My backend classes have a global configuration file. The file is passed in 
sitemap:

  <map:transformer name="mytrans" src="myTransformer">
    <configdir>work</configdir>
   <configfile>myconfig.cfg</configfile>
  </map:transformer>
The configuration is passed by transformer to backend classes, because my 
backend classes don't have any clue where to get configuration from. So I 
have to pass this via transformer.



Pass some of this configuration to my backend processes. (it's not
just
one class)
From what I see you only need to separate the "connect to backend"
logic from the cocoon specific interfaces generator and transformer. It
allows higher reuse as you can access it directly from flow, no need to
go through a superflouos pipeline.
Will have to think about it ;-)

What about a SQLTransformer? ;-)
I don't like it for exactly that reason. And would not use it.

I don't like it, too. See discussion about where to hold business logic.
