Hi, as there seems to be a growing demand for some Cocoon debugging tools we (s&n AG) want to jump in and help to develop a debugger infrastructure for Cocoon.
As an initial starting point we want to contribute the Sitemap Debugger/Trace which is a part of sunBow (http://www.s-und-n.de/sunshine/ccos/de/produkte/english/sunbow). We have ported the client to Eclipse 3.1 and the server-side part to Cocoon 2.1.8dev and 2.2dev, so we have a working initial version. Some more information about the debugger can be found here: http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/LepdioSitemapDebugger The contribution can be found here: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=109367 With this contribution and our engagement we want to help the Lepido project to grow and to attract more developers and users. If you want to see some more parts of sunBow in Lepido have a look at http://www.s-und-n.de/sunshine/ccos/de/produkte/english/sunbow and let us know which features do you want. As an addition to the functions mentioned there we have a basic prototype of a flow-script debugger based on Eclipse (it's more or less a port of the one which is included in Rhino, but there is some work to do). (Please keep discussions about this contribution on the Lepido mailinglist and newsgroup. See http://www.eclipse.org/lepido/ for more details) -- kind regards Carsten Ziegeler & Jens Maukisch Open Source Group, s&n AG
