Hi guys,
I was just having a chat with my colleague about writing servlet
services in one block and using them in another block. And I told him
apparently you can only return xml from a servlet service. I found
this out by writing a service (plain old XSLT) which takes as input
XML and returns text or in my particular case JSON.
Whereas this XSLT gets the job done if I use it in a regular pipeline,
I could not use it in a servlet service. Is there a good reason the
output from a servlet service can only be XML? On the docs from C3
for instance
http://cocoon.apache.org/3.0/reference/html-single/index.html I read
following statement:
It is the responsibility of the |Producer| to decide whether a
specific |Consumer| can be linked to it or not (that is, whether it
can produce output in the desired format of the |Consumer| or not).
Does this mean C3 would not have this restriction?
I am not sure what you are referring to but it strikes me ought "a
servlet service can only be XML". Need to find some time to setup a
small test myself, but AFAIK the service can return whatever.
