Logger category control

2003-02-02 Thread Christopher Watson

Hi All,

I'd like to control the target/catgory of some logging at the level of a
map:match, 
or alternatively, change the target/catgory within a bit of xsp.

The most 'atomic' I've managed to control the target it is at
map:generator level for the whole (sub)sitemap.

I've tried changing logger with  but looking at the
logicsheet log.xsl, if there's a logger already, then it won't
'override' it.

Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks,

Christopher

1)

When I last got the drivers there were 3 jars, namely
msbase.jar
mssqlserver.jar
msutil.jar

Try putting all 3 jars into cocoon's WEB-INF/lib

2)

For mssql add following lines (between ... ...) to in WEB-INF/web.xml
within

  load-class
  

...

com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
...

3)

Add following jdbc element within  in cocoon.xconf


  
 
jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://localhost:1433;DatabaseName=mydatabase

  sa
  mypassword


assuming database on 
Server: localhost
Port:   1433
Database:   mydatabase
and user and password as specified
please edit as necessary

4)

You can now (after restarting servlet engine) do something like

I want to use a microsoft sql server with cocoon, so I downloaded

Another XSP - and no mention of Cocoon

2002-11-11 Thread Christopher Watson

Someone else is using the name XSP and XML Server Pages,
and as far as I can tell gives no mention of Apache or Cocoon
I'm not sure from what I've seen whether it's the same technology ...

Thought we all should know

Look at http://xsp.triloggroup.com/flowbuilder/site/f5_1_Tech_XSP.xsp

or http://www.flowbuilder.com/xsp as mentioned on p59 of Java Developer's

Vadim, well spotted !
You are as ever, a brick!
I reset the compiled sitemap and it worked
... and I thought I'd eliminated that from my enquiries. I had too many
machines and versions hanging around ...

> These were fixed later on, in 2.0.4-dev.

I'd rather use the interpreted sitemap. It seems to improve reload
dramatically!

Could you tell me what files I would have to update, and how to get them?
I looked at http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi but don't see a 2.0.4-dev
branch ...
How would I get 2.0.4-dev ?

Thanks Again

Cocoon 2.0.3 Tomcat 4.1.10 sub sitemap problem - failed sitemap 'inheritance' - anyone seen this and have any ideas?

2002-09-30 Thread Christopher Watson


Hello

I'm having problems with a sub-sitemap

I'm on 2.0.3 release. It works on tomcat 4.0.1 and 4.0.4 but doesn't with
4.1.10 or 4.1.12

The example subsitemap http://10.1.1.2:8080/cocoon203/sub/ shows the same
problem.
It's a problem of sitemap 'inheritance' as far as I can tell.

The error I get from the example URL above is as follows ..

Description:org.apache.avalon.framework.configuration.ConfigurationException
: Type 'wildcard' is not defined for 'match' at
file:/F:/jakarta-tomcat/webapps/cocoon203/sub/sitemap.xmap:21:26

True, the wildcard matcher component is not declared in the subsitemap, but
used to 'inherit' it from the 'root' sitemap
at file:/F:/jakarta-tomcat/webapps/cocoon203/sitemap.xmap in the above
example.

If I declare the lost wildcard matcher component in the subsitemap then it
works, or at least, I get the next error caused by the failed 'inheritance'

So I guess I have a workaround in declaring everything in the subsitemap,
but this kind of defeats the object !?

I've just done a clean install on tomcat 4.0.1 (works) and 4.1.10 (doesn't)
to check my sanity on this!
It's weird that the version of Tomcat should create this different
behaviour.
Does anyone have any idea what's going on?

Christopher

Failing that you can try the online docs,
ESQL is part of XSP, so I'd start at

http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/userdocs/xsp/index.html
or on your installation at
http://localhost:8080/cocoon/documents/userdocs/xsp/index.html

to get started with XSP. Then try the EQL link

http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/userdocs/xsp/esql.html
or on your installation at
http://localhost:8080/cocoon/documents/userdocs/xsp/esql.html

--- OR ---

You could use an SQL transformer to get at SQL. See

Lars

Assuming you're using the Microsoft 2000 JDBC driver,

1   Copy the three libraries from the unpacked distribution

msbase.jar
mssqlserver.jar
msutil.jar

to WEB-INF/lib

2   Add com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
to init-param in WEB-INF/web.xml, ending up with someting like ...


  load-class
  


com.mysql.jdbc.Driver


com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver


  


3   Declare the datasource in cocoon.xconf, thus



jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://localhost:1433;DatabaseName=mydb
myuser
mypassword


By the way, as far as I can gather, you CAN'T use windows authentication
with the JDBC driver,
so you must set the server to use mixed security. That might cause your
sysadmin to flutter!

Now you can use mypool as a pooled connection name, e.g. in esql as
  mypool

As for what you can do with esql, that's another story !

Carsten.

I think it's not the same problem, since I'm just doing a map:read to get
the .gif :-(
(The bug you mentioned below seemed to be resolved by a patch to batik, so I
guess it was a generated svgjpeg image in their case)

I'm just going to look at something Vadim has suggested ...

Anyone seen this cache problem?: - java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.cocoon.caching.CachedEventObject

2002-08-20 Thread Christopher Watson


Could anyone help with this cache problem ...

I seem to get these errors creep into existence for certain static document
(e. g. images).
Everything is fine for a couple of days, then I start getting cache errors
on access to some static files.
Once a certain URI starts failing, it keeps failing, then gradually others
join in.
To restore access to them, I have to stop tomcat, delete the work directory
(which includes the cache of course!) and restart tomcat.
Then everything is fine for a couple of days again.

I've checked the recommendations for heapsize and freememory as far as I
understand them.

I've done a search of the mailing list, but have not managed to find
anything specific to this error.

System is Windows 2000 IIS5 using ISAPI to tomcat 4.0.1 to cocoon 2.0.1
jdk1.3.1

Here's the error I get.


(By the way, /main/ is the name of my cocoon context and directory)

I suspect you need

in your opening xsp:page tag
along with
  xmlns:util="http://apache.org/xsp/util/2.0";
and the like

otherwise the xsp-request: stuff doesn't get translated

try replacing this with

Correct syntax is:

For:

Result will be:

For:

The EJB bit is beyond me, I guess yes if it's in the same JVM ...?

You can actually use request.getParameter within a bit of

There's an example bundled with cocoon, on my tomcat installation it's at
http://localhost:8080/cocoon/xsp/upload
(cocoon version 2.0.1)

It uses an xsp page which follows. NB, the bit where it 'contextualizes' is
basically to get the upload directory name from web.xml - you may not need
this,
nor may you need the logging it does, but it's there to show you how .

  xmlns:xsp-request="http://apache.org/xsp/request/2.0";
  xmlns:xsp-response="http://apache.org/xsp/response/2.0";

  File uploadDir = null;
  /** Contextualize this class */
  public void contextualize(Context context) throws ContextException {
uploadDir = (File) context.get(Constants.CONTEXT_UPLOAD_DIR);
  }
  

  
   This form allows you upload files
   
 
   
 File:  
 
   
 
 
 
   
getLogger().debug("Dir=" + uploadDir);
 String[] filelist = uploadDir.list();

Deepak, I suspect you've got something like
myStringVariable

try replacing this with
myStringVariable

Also, to use the util: logicsheet, you'll need to add

  xmlns:util="http://apache.org/xsp/util/2.0";

to your opening xsp:page tag

RE: Cocoon 2 + Access

2002-05-16 Thread Christopher Watson


Cyril,

If you MUST use access (I do while testing !) ...

looking at your example ...

http://apache.org/xsp";>
  xmlns:esql="http://apache.org/cocoon/SQL/v2";>

you've got an extra > after the xmlns:xsp="http://apache.org/xsp";
it should be

http://apache.org/xsp";
  xmlns:esql="http://apache.org/cocoon/SQL/v2";>

===
Don't expect to see much until you do something like the following.
I wouldn't know how to use column numbers with esql; I always use names


http://apache.org/xsp";
  xmlns:esql="http://apache.org/cocoon/SQL/v2";>


   
 pool

 
  
  select userid, sessionid, visitdate, referrer, page from visit
  

  
   


 
 
 
 
 


   
  

 

   



BUT I agree with others, you're probably safer using MySQL. It's free too!
There's even an ODBC driver for it, so you could set an ODNC datasource and
look at it through access.

Hi Perry,

I've tried with // instead  of / ,it isn't better...
Anyway, I've configurated with esql and pool.
the cocoon.xconf looks like this:


jdbc:odbc:logs  (with odbc, we don't need to write the
complete url, right??)



and I didn't forget to load the driver in web.xml...

My file base1.xsp is this one, as simple as possible, just to test the
connection

To my great surprise, when I execute this file, I obtain:

I think, it's not normal...I should not see the connection element...  I

Hi Cyril,

In theory it should work, as it's just some Java code, similar to that
produced by ESQL. The disadvantage, is that you don't have any error
checking or logging to fall back on when situations like this occur, and
ESQL would provide that.

Anyway, the only obvious thing that I can see, is to put \\'s in your
connection string, e.g:

("jdbc:odbc:localhost:8080/c:\\Mes_documents\\JAVA\\JDBC\\logs");

Also turn on ODBC tracing and see if any other information is logged, to
help you resolve the problem.

jdk1.4 revisited . What CVS branch? How is 2.0.3?

2002-05-10 Thread Christopher Watson

Can someone recommend..

I'm about to have another go at getting jdk1.4 and cocoon working together.
I've tried 2.0.2 release with failures on
1)  ESQL, specifically with connection pooling, once I'd patched
EsqlConnection ;->
2)  the bug in AbstractValidatorAction.java (Thanks Vadim for helping me with
this bit! )

I'm a bit nervous about using CVS HEAD since it's alpha-quality? Should I be
nervous?

Could someone inform ..
What is the status of 2.0.3?
Is there still a release of this planned?
If so, are there still things to be fixed, and what are they?

Every so often I get a reply to my (much earlier) list message about this
subject.

Later follows my reply to the latest one, which someone may want to correct
or complement ...
but it has prompted me to ask again ..

I want to get JDK1.4 and connection pooling working.

1)  Can I?

2)  What CVS (HEAD or 2.0.3) do I need?

3)  Is a 2.0.3 or other dist where this works forthcoming?

Sorry to be a nag.

For completeness, I think Cocoon is marvellous!


My reply .
==

I kind of gave up and went back to Cocoon 2.0.1 , Tomcat 4.0.1 and jdk 1.3,
since I've no pressing need to get to jdk1.4 !

There was a recent 'howto jdk1.4' in the users mailing list, in response to
which I asked if connection pooling worked with it but got no response.

Last I saw on the developers list was talk of a forthcoming 2.0.3 release.
There's a branch ready for this on the CVS, but it's not been put into the
dist

You MAY find that the latest (HEAD) CVS works, albeit with perhaps a bit of
judicious editing of EsqlConnection.java to get it co compile.
(I.E. Just take the /* */ to uncomment the JDBC3 specific stuff)

Also, in 2.0.2 there was a bug in AbstractValidatorAction.java (Thanks Vadim
for helping me with this bit! ) so get that from the CVS -

Frankly, I can't completely remember how my last try with jdk1.4 worked. I
think ESQL Connection Pooling was OK !
But going to whatever the CVS version I last tried had unconnected
side-effects for what I had done, which, although probably more correct,
would have meant me changing what I had done ...

(Aggregation on 2.0.1 with a missing map:part URI would just leave the
missing part out of the aggregate,
on whatever CVS it was I tried with jdk1.4, it did a 404 resource not found)

I'm going to forward this to the user and dev lists since there's been
nothing about progress on this for a while.

I'll change your name in case you don't want it

Sorry I can't be of more immediate help

Christopher

RE: HOWTO install cocoon under JDK 1.4

2002-05-03 Thread Christopher Watson


Robert,

Well done getting it to compile.

Now that it has, do you know if Connection Pooling works for ESQL etc?

By the way, when I've tried jdk1.4 before, with Michael Enke's help I
believe,
the _first_ time I used a pooled connection it was OK,
but if I tried it _again_ then it failed?

If you get a chance to test it, please let us know.

RE: newbe database question

2002-04-29 Thread Christopher Watson


Edgar

The documentation is out of date. Someone helped me with this earlier.
It needs some different Avalon type stuff
Try this example xsp page which gets the URL from the metadata (or the
Exception) as a check
For XSP at least, it NEEDS to be in a try block or it won't compile.


http://apache.org/xsp";
>
 

String fish="flounder";
try {
ComponentSelector mySelector = (ComponentSelector)
manager.lookup(DataSourceComponent.ROLE + "Selector");
// edit following line as necessary
DataSourceComponent myDatasource =
(DataSourceComponent)mySelector.select("myCocoonXconfEntry");
  java.sql.Connection myConnection = myDatasource.getConnection();
  java.sql.DatabaseMetaData dbmd = myConnection.getMetaData();
  fish = dbmd.getURL();
} catch (Exception esqlFail) {
fish="" + esqlFail;
}
fish




Which is adapted from looking at the file generated from an esql xsp.

I think the point in the docs about leaving the connection open still
stands,
I imagine the pooling delas with this
though perhaps someone more knowing could comment?

I can't find roles in the cocoon jar either. But it is in j2ee.jar (maybe
you have to get it from Sun first). Maybe it is not the one you search for,
but then again I have never tried to make a database connection like this.
(by the way: com.sun.enterprise.deployment.Roles)
www.cocooncenter.de may offer some help.

I just started developing with cocoon and I have a basic question (I think).

I'm trying to use the datasource pooled connection like what is detailed in
the cocoon user guide but I'm having trouble location the
org.apache.cocoon.Roles class. I have the web.xml files and the cocoon.xconf
files configured correctly because I can see the connections being created
when I start cocoon. But my import statement fails when I try to compile my
class that implements Avalon Composable ifc because it can't find the
Roles.class file in any of the jars.

Can someone please let me know where I can find it.

Thanks in advance.

Does xsl:strip-space work ?

Hi, can anyone help
I want to rid my html of whitespace.

According to the XSLT spec, if a text node contains just whitespace - tab,
space, CR, LF
it will be stripped,

Also I'm trying belt abd braces, but still I'm getting the whitespace from
my XML throuhg into the HTML,
using a stylesheet like this ...

The  makes no difference

Anything else I need to do?
Do I somehow need to persuade xalan to take notice?
Does it take notice?

RE: sendmail xsl problem - singleton mail session?

2002-04-23 Thread Christopher Watson


Hello,

I've played with sendmail.xsl a bit recently.
I notice that it uses
javax.mail.Session.getDefaultInstance

I had trouble getting this one to change mail hosts via the parameter:
subsequent messages continued to use the host I'd used in the first message

I haven't delved into javax.mail far enough to be sure,
but my guess from the behaviour is that getDefaultInstance sets up a
Singleton session.

To get round the not-changing-mailhosts problem
I did myself a clone of sendmail.xsl but using
javax.mail.Session.getInstance instead of
javax.mail.Session.getDefaultInstance
and whacked into
\WEB-INF\classes\org\apache\cocoon\components\language\markup\xsp\java

and now I can use different hosts at will

I'm wondering whether it might be a useful improvement to have a parameter
to decide between

javax.mail.Session.getDefaultInstance and javax.mail.Session.getInstance

Hope this is of use to someone

RE: Problem with 'large' STATIC pdf files

2002-04-22 Thread Christopher Watson


Mike

Using the CVS version made it 'better' ...
wget seemed to reliably get all the file.
But I was still having intermittent problems when using a browser.
The browser problems seemed to go away if I put a dummy query string on the
end of the URL, e.g.
http://server/something.pdf?a=a
That's with IE6, haven't tried it elsewhere

Sorry about the use of the word seemed , but then it's an intermittent
problem :-?

However, other bits of the CVS version functioned differently from release
2.0.1, (see my separate message)
so I had to abandon it for now for my own purposes.

I ended up defining a new tomcat context (in config/server.xml) to serve the
pdf files, which seems (there's that word again) fine.

Vadim, the plot thickens.

I've unearthed cygwin's wget. 
On the 2.0.2 release build it gets all 175958 bytes !
Shame my browsers don't :-<

BUT On the current CVS (HEAD branch) it only gets 32768 bytes.

Problem with 'large' STATIC pdf files

2002-04-20 Thread Christopher Watson


Can anyone help - from the archives I think there've been a few people down
this road, but I haven't see anything very hopeful.

I'm trying to serve up static PDF files using

   

   

These are simply exposed as download/viewable files by 

If I right click and download, I only get the first 32768 bytes.
The .pdf file file is 115Kb.

Bizarrely, I can download all of an 82KB one with no problem


I did a sanity check with a large (300kb) image file
served by

   

   

which I could right-click and save OK.


What am I doing wrong?
Why the different behaviour?
Is there anywhere where a max file size is set for static .pdf's or other
file types?

PS I can serve the pdf through another tomcat servlet OK

Same behaviour in ie6, opera 6.0.1, ns 4.73

Tomcat 4.0.1 Cocoon 2.0.1 WinNT4 jdk1.3.1

Problem with 'large' STATIC pdf files

2002-04-20 Thread Christopher Watson


I'm trying to serve up static PDF files using

   

   

These are simply exposed as download/viewable files by 

If I right click and download, I only get the first 32768 bytes.
The .pdf file file is 115Kb.

Bizarrely, I can download all of an 82KB one with no problem


I did a sanity check with a large (300kb) image file
served by

   

   

which I could right-click and save OK.


What am I doing wrong?
Why the different behaviour?
Is there anywhere where a max file size is set for static .pdf's or other
file types?

Hope somebody can help.

Regards,
Christopher

PS I can serve the pdf through another tomcat servlet OK
Same behaviour in ie6, opera 6.0.1, ns 4.73

I just popped the CVS AbstractValidatorAction.java into the 2.0.2 dist

Title: RE: Cocoon 2.0.2 JDK1.4 Tomcat 4.0.4b1 JDBC Connection Pooling Doesn't Work (for me) - any ideas



Thanks, Tom
 
I 
suspect the problems are not only with cocoon, but excalibur too 
!
 
COCOON
===
The comment lines in the CVS EsqlConnection have 
@JDBC3_START@ and @JDBC3_END@which the ant task comments out if it FAILS to 
detect jdbc3 present.
 
In the 
cocoon dist version, these lines are commented out by /* and */  (it's 
the same in both the src.tar.gz and the src.zip) - so you have to remove them 
manually to get a clean jdk1.4 compile
 
EXCALIBUR
=
I 
noticed one Michael Enke on cocoon-dev asking about recompiling excalibur under 
jdk1.4 ...
 
There 
are similar @JDBC3_START@ lines in JdbcConnection and AbstractJdbcConnection in 
org.apache.avalon.excalibur.datasource
 
I 
tried myself recompiling the latest excalibur source dist (excluding the 
scratchpad stuff), 
having 
corrected a couple of typos in the parameter resulSetType 
[sic]
on 
lines 237, 251, 265 of
Jdbc3Connection.java
 
but 
even with that library,  http://localhost:8080/cocoon/xsp/esql still 
doesn't work

Interestingly enough, my firewall monitor show port numbers open

cocoon just can't seem to get hold of the correct connection objects 
?!
 
COCOON-DEV GUYS

I'm perhaps cheekily putting this out to cocoon-dev also 
- sorry to trouble you guys.
 
Am I right in thinking that jdk1.4 ESQL 
compatibility will be a while yet?
 
Any ideas how long ?
 
I was encouraged to try jdk1.4 by reading the installing/index.html document which seemed 
optimistic about jdk1.4 and 
tomcat4.0.4b1.
Having 
already been to jdk1.4, then back to jdk1.3 and now jdk1.4 again, with all the 
other hoop-jumping that involves, I'm inclined to stay here - fortunately I have 
another machine with jdk1.3 !

hopefully

  I don't know about your compile problems, but I do know that

  things.  I had no problems building the CVS a few weeks ago, but the ESQL

Cocoon 2.0.2 JDK1.4 Tomcat 4.0.4b1 JDBC Connection Pooling Doesn't Work (for me) - any ideas

2002-03-27 Thread Christopher Watson


Hopefully someone can help me ?

Followed the advice in cocoon-2.0.2\docs\installing\index.html, i.e.
created the endorsed directory, copied xerces xalan and xml-apis

Build clean then build installwar

Compile falls over EsqlConnection, saying it should be declared abstract due
to missing methods.
Discovered some commented-out methods which seem to implement the missing
methods - e.g. setSavePoint, setHoldability
Uncommented those lines
Also noticed a line which read /*  */ between setLimitMetod and
createStatement - wondered about this, whether I should comment out some
lines as well as uncommenting those I just mentioned, but could see clearly
what I should do so I left it ??!!

Build installwar now worked
Tomcat now runs cocoon mostly OK, but ESQL example doesn't work.

Specifically it's POOLING that doesn't work !

It seems to have helped someone, and may be of use to others.

How do I use pooled datasource in an external java class?

Hello 'spinners'

I would like to pass a connection from the pool to a java class

The documentation at
http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/developing/datasources.html is out of date I
think.

It suggests I do 

import org.apache.avalon.framework.component.ComponentManager;
import org.apache.avalon.framework.component.ComponentSelector;
import org.apache.cocoon.Roles;
import org.apache.avalon.excalibur.datasource.DataSourceComponent;

import java.sql.Connection;

//  Skip a lot of lines until we are in the method you use
//  to initialize the DataSourceComponent 

private DataSourceComponent datasource;

public void compose(ComponentManager manager) {
ComponentSelector selector =
(ComponentSelector) manager.lookup(Roles.DB_CONNECTION);
this.datasource = (DataSourceComponent)
selector.select("MyConnectionName");
}

//  Skip more lines until we actually need to use the datasource

private void meMethod() {
Connection myConnection = this.datasource.getConnection();

//  perform SQL code here

myConnection.close();
}

...

but there's no longer an org.apache.cocoon.Roles class in the classpath

can anyone help?

Thanks

Someone else had this same problem recently.

Use .  It will parse the text that you pass in to it, and
generate SAX calls from it (as opposed to writing the text straight to the
output - after escaping all the control chars - like it's doing now).

1) Include the namespace xmlns:util="http://apache.org/xsp/util/2.0"; in your
XSP or the  won't get called properly.

2) the call you need to make this work:
myString

myString takes the value of String  myString, which is

Could someone help

I have a method on an object that produces XML as a string.
I wish to incorporate it into an XSP page.

myString 
doesn't work, since it kindly changes < into < etc.

I have tried various approaches, each with various unwanted side effects.

Could someone tell me what is the BEST way to achieve this?

i.e.

Parse it? 
DOM vs SAX? 
use this.contentHandler?
use myStringAsANode?

some other Cocoon technique/ generator/transformer etc

RE: How do I use logicsheets parameters

2001-11-30 Thread Christopher Watson


Christopher,

Many thanks for a model answer,

The missing penny has dropped because of your comment

"remember that a logicsheet is just an XSL stylesheet that gets applied to
your XSP document to transform it into another XSP document."

I had forgotten-cum-misunderstood!

For your info C2 does things rather differently than C1, namely, instead of
using cocoon processing instructions,
you define "pipelines" in a sitemap.xmap file (an xml file that takes over a
lot of what was cocoon.properties),
which says how the xml file is generated (xsp, jsp, Tidied html, etc)
then how it is transformed (generally xslt, but there are also transformers
for log, sql, xinclude etc)
then how it is serialized (html, xml, wap, svg2png, etc)

That was for me the biggest change from the way C1 worked and it took a
while to get the hang of, though "I sense it has more power"
but the same thing can be achieved as you suggested from C1.

Sent: 29 November 2001 21:55
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Re: How do I use logicsheets parameters



Christopher,

first, may I suggest some general strategies for developing logicsheets?
- start simple and extend by small increments, e.g., instead of trying to
get this working by passing either an attribute or a child element, get it
working one way, then get it working *seperately* the other way, then put
them together.  On another dimension, get it working first using a plain
text element, then get it working with a Java variable.

- remember that a logicsheet is just an XSL stylesheet that gets applied to
your XSP document to transform it into another XSP document.  You can take
advantage of this for debugging by simply changing your processing
instructions to pass your XSP through your logicsheet using the XSLT
processor only, then viewing the output.  (Some XML editors will also let
you do this pretty easily.)  This will give you insight into what the
"final" XSP code looks like before conversion to Java.  (This is easy to do
in C1; I assume you can do it in C2.)

- in addition to the above, write a plain XSP first, without using a
logicsheet, that produces the expected output.  In other words, write and
debug an XSP that looks like the XSP you want after your logicsheet is
applied.  This will help you develop your logicsheet.

Okay, so here's what I think you need to do what you are trying to do:

<  XSP - Calling page  >>>



http://apache.org/xsp";
  xmlns:mytags="http://dummy.org/mytags";
>

  
String bag="56891";
  
  
 
   bag
   
 
   bag
 
   
   




  
  

  

  


<< Logicsheet >


http://apache.org/xsp";
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
  xmlns:mytags="http://dummy.org/mytags";
  version="1.0">


  


  

  



  


  

  

  



  
  

  

""

Hope this helps.

Note that I did this all in C1, which has some different processing
instructions and namespaces and so forth to use logicsheets.  I've tried to
return everything to a form that looks like what you had originally, but be
warned I may have missed something.

Subject:  How do I use logicsheets parameters


Could someone help me? I could benefit from a "logicsheet parameters 101"

I want to use my own logicsheet and pass in runtime parameter(s)

I have set up a logicsheet with the namespace mytags and a "function"
get_my_param,
to which I want to pass an xsp/java variable. In the following xsp I have
three goes at passing
a String variable called bag - with the value "56891" - but with no
success.

(The logicsheet is based on guesses from what I found in session.xsl,
util.xsl etc.)

  the results, and the logicsheet follow the listing of the page

Note that the bag gets 'resolved' in the calling page,
but its value does not get passed into the logicsheet
The  element shows that a literal value gets passed OK

I guess it's to do with the order in which xsp: and mytags: are
'processed',
but I don't know how to control this - any answers?

If I chaneg the priority of the "copy over" template in the logicsheet
(quoted below), thus:
  
then I get ...
