Hi Markus,
first of all make sure that you have no blank before .setAttribute
request .setAttribute ("hello", "world");
But this could be caused by the mailer.
You can get the request within an xsp by accessing the "request" variable in
this way:
<xsp:page>
<xsp:structure>
<xsp:include>org.apache.cocoon.environment.Request</xsp:include>
</xsp:structure>
<xy>
<xsp:logic>
Object theAttribute = request.getAttribute(...);
</xsp:logic>
</xy>
</xsp:page>
Best regards

Subject: Can�t get Request from an Action
Hello Folks,
I added a self-developed action to org/apache/cocoon with a path from there
like ask/auth. Under auth I have created a servlet called Login.java. You
guessed!.. I am trying to create a login-action for internal use (I know
there is a sample, but that doesn�t fit our needs).
The Login-Servlet gives me a Map back (nothing new) and it sets an attribute
to a Request like ...
Request.setAttribute("hello","world");
as in the docs from Cocoon!!! "Creating and Using Actions".
The value of the Map is read successfully in the sitemap.xmap, but the
request values can't be read out within an xsp-page. Got only null.
What's wrong?
--------------------------------Login.java----------------
package org.apache.cocoon.ask.auth;
import org.apache.avalon.framework.parameters.Parameters;
import org.apache.avalon.framework.thread.ThreadSafe;
import org.apache.cocoon.acting.AbstractAction;
import org.apache.cocoon.Constants;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.HashMap;
import org.apache.cocoon.environment.*;
import org.xml.sax.EntityResolver;
public class Login extends AbstractAction
implements ThreadSafe {
public Map act (Redirector redirector,
SourceResolver resolver,
Map objectModel,
String source,
Parameters params
) {
Map sitemapParams = new HashMap();
sitemapParams .put ("authArt", "login");
Request request = (Request) objectModel.get (Constants.REQUEST_OBJECT);
request .setAttribute ("hello", "world");
return sitemapParams;
}
}
--------------------------------login.xsp----------------
...
<para><xsp-request:get-attribute name="hello"/></para>
...
The rest of xsp-page is correct.
--------------------------------login.xsl----------------
...
<p><xsl:value-of select="//para"/></p> <br/>
... Rest OK.
--------------------------------sitemap.xmap----------------
...
<map:actions>
<map:action name = "xifs-login"
src = "org.apache.cocoon.ask.auth.Login"/>
</map:actions>
... within a pipeline!!!
<!-- SERVLETS -->
<map:match pattern="auth/**">
<!-- Performe login ... -->
<map:act type="xifs-login">
<map:generate type="serverpages" src="../xsp/login.xsp"/>
<map:transform src="../styles/login.xsl"/>
<map:serialize/>
</map:act>
<!-- If all fails ...-->
<map:redirect-to uri="../welcome"/>
</map:match>
...
Thanks for any help.
Regards Markus
