Hi Simon
the resource protocol gives access to the java resource system, that is
files which reside inside the classpath, so or packed in a jar or in a
"classes" directory.
In a web application context, this mean tou can put your files inside
the WEB-INF/classes/ directory, so for example :
tomcat
webapps
cocoon
WEB-INF
classes
myresources
mystyle.css
can then be access with resource://myresources/mystyle.css
OR, you can put them inside a jar, with all their folders, for example :
# jar -tf resjar.jar
/myresources/mystyle.css
The you put the jar in WEB-INF/lib/ and you can access them same as above.
Mind that when accessing resources in a jar (and maybe also in the
classes directory), you will have probably to restart the server, or
reload the context or something similar to have them loaded correctly if
you modify them, but this depends on your container. With the default
jetty that comes with cocoon you have to reload it when you modify a jar.
Regards,
Simone

Hi,
I'm having trouble using the 'resource://' protocol from my web-app.
I've got the default cocoon web-app installed (2.1.8) on tomcat 5.5.9. I
have a sub-directory called myApp containing my application like:
tomcat
|
->webapps
|
->cocoon
|
->myApp
I have copied some stuff from the samples in order to get cforms to
work.
myApp/sitemap.xmap:
<map:pipeline>
<map:match pattern="resources/*/**">
<map:read
src="resource://org/apache/cocoon/{1}/resources/{2}"/>
</map:match>
</map:pipeline>
I then want to have stuff like CSS's in a resources folder. What I don't
understand is where to put the resources folder, and if I have to
configure something else (in web.xml?) to get it to work.
if I browse to http://localhost:8080/cocoon/myApp/resources/css/my.css I
get "Resource Not Found". I've tried putting the css under...
cocoon/resources/css
cocoon/WEB-INF/resources/css
cocoon/WEB-INF/css
cocoon/myApp/resources/css
all with no luck.
I've stepped through all the ResourceReader code down until it passes
off to the Tomcat WebappClassLoader, which returns null.
