Thanks - I will give this a try (cannot be slower than what I have
now and looks pretty straightforward). It had not occurred to me
because it seemed this would require 50+ calls to the same
pipeline.. instead of just one pass through one... but I'll check.
Re the caching - surely its Cocoon's "job" to check the files
being used (if they are static, as in this case) and send through
the latest version... but I will run some tests and see what occurs.
Thanks
Derek

Is the XPath expression the same in every case ("//inml:ind/meta")?
If so, then it would be easy to switch to using CInclude, which is
cached:
<file name='101.xml'>
<ci:include src='cocoon:/101.meta.xml'/>
</file>
And then define a new pipeline to produce 101.meta.xml:
<map:match pattern='*.meta.xml'>
<map:generator src='{1}.xml'/>
<map:transform src='pull-out-ind-meta.xslt'/>
<map:serialize>
</map:match>
I'm pretty new to Cocoon, actually, and I've been using this technique
a
lot,
for example, to generate my nav bar. I'm not altogether happy with it,
though,
mainly because I can't figure out how to control the cache -- i.e. to
make sure
that it gets invalidated whenever {1}.xml changes. But, it's pretty
fast.
