Works nice !!

function generateValuePropositions() {
   var id_collection = 
Collection.fromArray(getJson('getCommaSeparatedBasicTypeIds'));
   print('Starting generation of ' + id_collection.getLength() + ' value 
propositions!!');
   var index = 0;
   id_collection.forEach(
       /** we write the map and topics for each id **/
       function(id){
           //We delay invocation of the pipeline with 3 seconds
           setTimeout(
               function() {
                   print('Generating value proposition ' + id);
                   cocoon.processPipelineTo("write-map-and-topics/" + id, null, 
new Packages.java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream());
               }, index * 3000);
           index++;
       }
   );
   cocoon.sendPage('index.html');
}

I found a nice article on stackoverflow showing how to create my own 
implementation in flowscript.  I will of course first need to thoroughly test 
it but it looks promising so far ;-)

var setTimeout,
    clearTimeout,
    setInterval,
    clearInterval;

(function () {
    var timer = new java.util.Timer();
    var counter = 1;
    var ids = {};

    setTimeout = function (fn,delay) {
        var id = counter++;
        ids[id] = new JavaAdapter(java.util.TimerTask,{run: fn});
        timer.schedule(ids[id],delay);
        return id;
    }

    clearTimeout = function (id) {
        ids[id].cancel();
        timer.purge();
        delete ids[id];
    }

    setInterval = function (fn,delay) {
        var id = counter++;
        ids[id] = new JavaAdapter(java.util.TimerTask,{run: fn});
        timer.schedule(ids[id],delay,delay);
        return id;
    }

    clearInterval = clearTimeout;

})();

Hi guys,

I was bulk processing DITA maps and topics from flowscript and noticed that 
following code is executed parallel.  So basically the cocoon.processPipelineTo 
returns immediately so it seems.  This results in max sessions reached to XMLDb 
and I run into an exception.  Just checking what is best way to put some delay 
in the execution.

function generateValuePropositions() {
   var id_collection = 
Collection.fromArray(getJson('getCommaSeparatedBasicTypeIds'));
   print('Starting generation of ' + id_collection.getLength() + ' value 
propositions!!');
   id_collection.forEach(
       /** we write the map and topics for each id **/
       function(id){
           cocoon.processPipelineTo("write-map-and-topics/" + id, null, new 
Packages.java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream());
       }
   );
}

Kind regards,
Robby
