Vadim will tell if I am wrong, but Cocoon is a servlet, ie a Java class. It needs several Java dependencies for XML parsing and other fundamental things to work properly. Additionnal Java libraries can be added to extend its functionnalities (fop for PDF rendering, batik for SVG and graphics management). They are not mandatory. If they are needed in your application, you have to list them in cocoon.xconf and/or sitemap.xmap. For example, for wikiLand, I needed the basic Cocoon stuff and the chaperon parser. So I removed all the .jar uneeded that are usually shipped with Cocoon (big) archive, and added chaperon.jar. If you want, you can take the .war available at the homepahe of wikiLand, and study it. In fact, to remove the dependencies of Chaperon, simply have a look at the beginning the sitemap.xmap and comment everything that talks about chaperon or wiki-parser. Then you will have the skeleton for any Cocoon application. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faq/index.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
