Hi Jeff,
The source resolving mechanism is for you :).
SourceResolver resolver = null; Source source = null;
try {
resolver = (SourceResolver) manager.lookup(SourceResolver.ROLE);
processor =
(XPathProcessor) manager.lookup(XPathProcessor.ROLE); source = resolver.resolveURI("cocoon://blah");
// or source = resolver.resolveURI("http://blah";);
// then do what you want from your source : get the file, the
//input stream, and so on...
} catch (ComponentException e) {
getLogger().error("Could not lookup for component : ", e);
throw new CascadingRuntimeException(e.getMessage(), e);
} finally {
if (resolver != null) {
if (source != null)
resolver.release(source);
manager.release(resolver);
}
}Your Action must be Serviceable (ie must extend ServiceableAction) to get access to the cocoon component manager.

I'm getting lost in Cocoon docs and could use a pointer or two. Could anyone help me out?
I'm writing an Action to perform the following steps:
Pull a couple query parameter values from the request URI Perform some simple Java manipulation on them Use the manipulated values to request an XML document, either externally (http://) or internally (cocoon://) Extract several values from the resulting XML document and insert them into the action result map Return the map to the pipeline
The only thing I don't see how to do is extract data from the XML document; or, to put it another way, I don't see how to use an XML document as the source of data for an Action. I realize I'm probably missing something simple, but I'm kind of stuck on this point... or maybe I should be using something other than an Action to begin with. Can anyone give me a push in the right direction?
Many thanks,
