Alright, so since you're already in the groove of answering my questions
(thanks btw), I would need my generator class to also have access to the
entire Request Map (preferably in the form Map<String,String[]> where the
String[] key is the set of values in case a value is declared twice, but
that's not so crucial) as well as the Session object / map... how would I go
about that?
Generators are SitemapModelComponents [1] and so have access to a map
that we call object model in the setup(..) method. If you extend from an
existing generator (ServiceableGenerator [2] is mostly a reasonable
choice) you only have to override the setup(..) method and the
generate(..) method. You can access request from the object model using
the ObjectModelHelper [3]: ObjectModelHelper.getRequest(objectModel);
Disclaimer: What I explained is pretty much the Cocoon 2.1 way. If you
use 2.2 this will still work but there might be better ways to do that
like component setup through Spring. But I guess this does not make
setup(..) obsolete, only additional component configurations.
