Hi all,

 

Taking a quick look at the cocoon 3 sample I noticed that the
"transformer-pipeline" and "serializer-pipeline" are sort of the same
except for myParam which get's another value.

I noticed as well that I can't leave out the <map:serialize type="xml"/>
from the transformer-pipeline.  Otherwise I get following exception
"java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot execute pipeline, last pipeline
component is no finisher".

 

So is it fair to conclude that every 'transformation servlet service' is
inherent also a 'serializer servlet service'?

 

And what bugs me a bit is that [1] throws in a free transformer...
"simple.xslt". [2]   This makes things a bit confusing in my opinion.
It seems that these servlet-services actually do more then their names
imply.

 

 

      <map:match pattern="ssf/transformer-pipeline">

        <map:generate type="service-consumer" />

        <map:transform src="sax-pipeline/simple.xslt">

          <map:parameter name="myParam" value="transformer-pipeline" />

        </map:transform>

        <map:serialize type="xml" />      

      </map:match>

 

      <map:match pattern="ssf/serializer-pipeline">

        <map:generate type="service-consumer" />

        <map:transform src="sax-pipeline/simple.xslt"> [2]

          <map:parameter name="myParam" value="serializer-pipeline" />

        </map:transform>

        <map:serialize type="xml" />

      </map:match>

    

 

    <map:match pattern="ssf/calling-a-transformer-servlet-service">

        <map:generate src="sax-pipeline/simple.xml" />

        <map:transform type="servlet-service">

          <map:parameter name="service"
value="servlet:/ssf/transformer-pipeline" />

        </map:transform>

        <map:serialize type="xml" />

      </map:match>

 

 

      <map:match pattern="ssf/calling-a-serializer-servlet-service">

        <map:generate src="sax-pipeline/simple.xml" />

        <map:serialize type="servlet-service">

          <map:parameter name="service"
value="servlet:/ssf/serializer-pipeline" /> [1]

        </map:serialize>

      </map:match>

 

Cheers,
