I still can't seem to find any information on an equivalent solution for an application-scope object.
I've switched to JavaFlow and JX templates now. Would a class variable in a JavaFlow be considered as an application-scope variable, if I had the flow run through every page? The problem I'm trying to solve is, I have a list X items (which very gradually increases, maybe a couple a week). On each page click in my site, I want to randomly grab a few of them to display to the user. In JSP, I implemented this by storing all the items in an application object, which was essentially a vector of the items, and randomly grabbed a few from this vector on each page click. In this situation, if the number of items increased, I would need to restart the container to initialize the vector with the new amount. But, I wouldn't have to hit the database on every click. I wonder if there is a better way to do this in Cocoon. I envision having a custom tag, say <featured_items/> which would be replaced with XML data on the randomly chosen items and then formatted in an XSL transformation. I am having trouble figuring out the logistics of doing this. Can anyone offer some advice?
