You know what? You're right. My description below was wrong. What I should have said is that I created a simple _JavaScript_ database API that can be used to implement business objects in JavaScript.
Nononono... Now I don't get you anymore...
Did you read Sylvain's message (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=104533819604446&w=2)? What I'm trying to do is give people what they need to start using the flow layer. They need a "bean" to pass to sendPage*(). They want to use a database. They don't want to use an O/R tool. I don't think you want them to do this: http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-09-2002/jw-0920-cocoon-p2.html, do you?
Would you at least agree that this is a better alternative than doing database processing in an xsp or jsp?
The example you've given says:
var conn = cocoon.getConnection(this.poolId); var result = conn.query("select * from PRODUCT where CATEGORY =
What does _conn_ (JDBC wrapped connection, I believe), has to do with _cocoon_ (sitemap 'n pipelines)???
Nothing, other than the fact that the database connection is configured in "cocoon.xconf".
Anyway this was just a temporary entry point, to get started. I'm open to suggestions on a better solution.
