I like to understand Cocoon 2.2 better. Is there updated documentations
along with the daily src?
As Cocoon is in an early stage, there is unfortunately not much more
available than the src. Daniel's presentation [1] on the Cocoon GT might
be the best available documentation. Don't know about any official
documentation.
Also, regarding the JSPs, are you saying that in 2.2, my Cocoon
application (which uses JSPs) will still run within the Cocoon servlet
context? Will I have to rewrite a part of my app to fit into Cocoon 2.2?
Are you just starting with the application? Then I personally would
refrain from JSP at all and have a look on the Cocoon-techniques
(JXTemplate, XSP). We recommended the JSP block mostly for migration
support, i.e. switching from a JSP-based application to Cocoon.
If you want to use JSPs AND Cocoon, you really might have a look on
Cocoon 2.2 as it easies the integration. Cocoon 2.1 uses it's own
environment abstraction. As you might see in the code ([2], [3]), Cocoon
needs to setup some really specific things (retrieving HttpServlet*
stuff, fixing urls, etc.). These are things the servlet container
already implements and handles probably in a much better way.
With the simplification in Cocoon 2.2 XML can be retrieved directly from
other servlets using the blocks pseudo protocol as "explained" in the
presentation.
Regarding your specific questions: 1. Yes it will. It also will no
longer run in Cocoon's abstraction of the environment. 2. You will
probably not need to rewrite it, but it would be recommended then to use
the new features. If we decide to remove the JSP block in 2.2
completely you might need to adapt your sitemap switching from
JSPGenerator to FileGenerator retrieving from a block source.
