Hi,
I've put
together an implementation of Luke Hubbard's RT on calling web services
from the flow layer.
The code is
available from http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/FlowAndWebServices if
you're interested in taking
a
look.
The impetus for
getting this going came from an application I was working on where I needed to
direct the
flow of control
based upon the response from a remote service, something not easily done using
the SOAP
logicsheet or
WebServiceProxyGenerator.
The code probably
needs a bit of a tidy up, I'm not hugely familiar with the Avalon component
lifecycle. I also
lifted the
CompilingClassLoader code directly from the FOM _javascript_ interpreter - I'm
sure it could be better
optimized
for this
purpose.
Cheers
Adam
