....Aren't you really talking about just a transformer then?...
...Then the generator simply becomes a virtual one:
<map:generator name="template"> <map:absolutize param="templatename"/> <map:generate type="file" src="{templatename}.xml"/> <map:transform type="template"/> </map:generator>
A two for one! Only one codebase to maintain. Nothing to keep in sync.
I see the idea, but I think the same thing can be done quite easily in code by reusing the same processing code in the generator and transformer.
