I have been given some time at work during which I would like to implement a CocoonBean (name and much of the below suggested by Vadim). I should have time over the Christmas holiday. I would therefore like to try to pin down a spec for it before then.

I would propose the following, as a code sample:

CocoonBean cocoon = new CocoonBean("c:/working", "c:/context");

/*** Set up Cocoon instance (optional) ***/
cocoon.setConfigFile("WEB-INF/cocoon.xconf");
cocoon.setBrokenLinkFile("c:/brokenlinks.txt");
cocoon.setAcceptOptions("acceptoptions");
cocoon.setAgentOptions("agentoptions");

cocoon.setPrecompileOnly(false);
cocoon.setRecursionOn();

Is it "follow-links"? Then it's better be

setFollowLinks(true);
setFollowLinks(false);

/*** Set up logging (optional) ***/
cocoon.setLogKit("logkitname");
cocoon.setLogLevel("ERROR");
cocoon.setLogger("loggername");

/*** Process a single URI and pass results to an output stream ***/
String URI = "cocoon:/blah/foobar.html?page=1";

File f = new File("foobar.html");
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(f);

cocoon.processURI(URI, fos);

/*** Process a number of URIs, sending the results to a 'destination' ***/
cocoon.addTarget("cocoon:/blah/foobar.html?page=2");
cocoon.addTarget("cocoon:/blah/foobar.html?page=3");
cocoon.setDestination(new FileDestination("c:/destination"));

cocoon.process();

cocoon.setDestination(new FTPDestination("c:/localfolder", "ftp.myhost.com", "bill", "myPassword", "foo/bar/"));
cocoon.process();

There is another option - but I'm not sure that it is better. Just for you consideration:

cocoon.process(ArrayList targets, Destination destination);

This way cocoon bean could be made thread safe (if the rest of it is threadsafe).

Unless I hear from anyone, I'll just get on and do it like this.

Go ahead.

Also, does anyone know of any decent java FTP client classes?

sun.net.ftp.FtpClient has couple of bugs and limited functionality, but it's Ok for many cases.
