Re: XML + XSL + SVG --> PDF. SVG, Not working on Cocoon

[Stephan Kassanke]

Versions of FOP on your local machine and the one of cocoon might differ.
You cannot infer from a correct output on your local machine that it will
work in cocoon too when versions differ. You may exchange the cocoon fop
version with your local version which is most probably more recent.

Another clue would be to make sure that you have x11 installed or xvfb due
to the JDK bug that references x when it comes to including the batik
classes.

I need to use SVGs. These a Autocad images converted to SVG. For one the
image quality is much better, and i´ve been told that the editing
capabilities are desired.
Given that it works using FOP on my local box, the problem should have an
easy solution the cocoon (using fop) box.

Poi has an example that works with current cocoon webapp samples.
Just copy the directory under /cocoon/mount and copy the poi jars under
/WEB-INF/lib/ and restart the servlet engine.
Detailed instructions are in the distribution.

You can download it from http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/  .

esql Vs SQLTransformer

[Miller, Grant]

Hello,
Can anyone explain what are the advantages/disadvantages of using the esql
logicsheet as compared to the SQL transformer?
At the moment it seems to me that SQL transformer is better because you can
chain arbitrary sql transformers together where as esql can only be done in
the generate step. In other words, why have esql at all?
Are there other issues, such as does SQL transformer use connection pooling?

Cheers,

Grant

Select on Browser Capabilities

[Peter Hargreaves]

Like many others (I imagine), I want to serve up wml to mobile users and 
html to  desktop users from the same request:

http://www.mysite.com

The example in the sitemap shows the use of a selector to choose a 
pipeline based on the name of the browser, then deliver html or wml.

But, I don't know the name of all the browsers that might use my site! 
Wouldn't it be better to match/select/action on browser capabilities to 
determine whether to send html or wml? Do mobile phones (etc) declare 
browser capabilities in their headers? Do all html browser declare 
themselves as html? Would this approach work? Is there a way to do this now?

Any help/views welcome.

Many thanks,
Pete Hargreaves.

P.S. I am familiar with the use of selectors to select on browser name, 
and familiar with the use of browser-capabilities in xslt.

I'm Using: NT4.0sp6, jdk1.3.1, jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1, Cocoon 2.0.

There is a proposed patch by Peter Durrant on it (which I
unfortunately didn't manage to apply) a one written by myself which
is a bit more flexible I think. Today I tried it with an INFORMIX
IUS9.23 but got an "The cursor has been previously released and is

I will to verify my suspicion of the cause with another RDBMS shortly
(i.e. PostgreSQL).

Had just now some problems with CVS but will try to commit what is
already there ASAP. (It doesn't hurt but doesn't fly either.)

Re: Caching and accessing Cocoon 2 via mod_proxy

I did it once with Cocoon 1.8. It works but don't expect high figures: 
we are working on it, but as of now there is almost no way to cleverly 
work on the "Expires" headers so that a proxy can really cache content 
since it's always flagged as expired. Basically you'll see a noticeable 
performance inmprovement due to the optimization of network communication.

Anyway I'd consider using Squid for better performance.

getServletPath and getPathInfo

[Helly, Aidan]

Hi,

 I am attempting to get C2 working with weblogic sp2 (using J2EE 1.3
functionality), after successfully getting C2 to work with Tomcat 3.2.3.
One important difference between these 2 environments is Tomcat complies
with version 2.2 of the Servlet Spec. while my weblogic setup adheres to
version 2.3.

 My question concerns how the URL received from a browser is split up
into servletPath and pathInfo. Cocoon's web.xml has the servlet mapping


  /


if I attempt to access cocoon/protected/login via my Tomcat config I
see the following in the cocoon log file
CONTEXT PATH: /cocoon
SERVLET PATH: /protected/login
PATH INFO: null

while if I do the same using my weblogic config, I get the following
CONTEXT PATH: /cocoon
SERVLET PATH: /
PATH INFO: /protected/login

as a consequence of this with my weblogic configuration, I get an 
exception telling me 
"The current URI(/protected/login) doesn't start with given prefix
(protected)

Looking at the code for CocoonServlet.jar tells me that the source of
this problem is weblogic setting the SERVLET PATH to "/" since the uri
is got by combining the servletPath and the pathInfo (resulting in a
url of //protected/login). If it was either null or even an empty string
then all would be fine!

Having looked at the servlet spec's for 2.2 and 2.3 I'm a little confused
as both spec's seem to suggest that the weblogic handling is the more
correct, i.e. 

servletPath = what was matched - context
path info = url - servlet path

(also the 2.3 spec states that a pattern match of /*, should result in
 a servlet path of an empty string. Unfortunately the weblogic
implementation
 doesn't quite stretch that far, it still sets the sevlet path to "/").

So the question is what should servletpath and pathinfo be set to in this 
case?

I realise this is more of a servlet engine question, but I was just
wondering if anyone out there in C2 land had any ideas!

thanks 

Aidan

In most cases, you could get the information on User-Agent strings from the
vendor websites. Good starting points are:

http://forum.nokia.com
http://devforum.openwave.com/

>From my experience mobile phones do not declare (enough of) their
capabilities in the header. Therefore I prefer to decide from the User-Agent
what to serve. In most cases the UA-Strings will give you not only the name
of the browser used, but also the model of the phone. Most vendors also give
information about the capabilities of the phones on their websites. With
this information you could already serve very optimized code to the
different phones or PDAs. If you just want to decide whether to serve html
or wml the UA-string is IMHO by far enough since there are only very few
devices that are capable of displaying html an wml with the same browser.
Unfortunately the WAE implementations of different mobile phones generate
quite different output from the same wml code. Therefore it makes sense to
have specific wml according to the requesting phone/PDA. Openwave wrote a
guide that shows the differences between Openwave and Nokia browsers:

http://demo.openwave.com/pdf/styleguides/gsm.pdf

Getting information on the behavior of other wml-browser requires a lot of
testing :-(

I think generally you are right. It would be nice to get the capabilities
directly from the header and serve the content accordingly. But I guess this
will have to wait until the next(?) generation of mobile phones.

I'd suggest to download Cocoon sources and re-compile (using build,bat).
I downloaded the binaries too... but never managed to make them run (on the

Probably a stupid question...

I'm using Windows 2000, Tomcat 3.3, Cocoon 
1.8.2
 
That said, here's the question:  I want a 
single xml file to be rendered in (at least) html and PDF and who knows 
what.  I know I can have multiple style sheets (for a given xml file) based 
upon Browser type (media)  Can I use something similar to add a stylesheet 
reference to a PDF style sheet?  That is, I have the following lines in my 
xml file"
 

Can I add another 'xml-stylesheet' statement to 
handle PDF conversion?

Implement a Generator or a URLStreamHandler?

[Conal Tuohy]

I've considering a small project to publish a usenet newsgroup using Cocoon
2. I've used Cocoon for a couple of months, for publishing static xml source
(DocBook) as PDF and HTML, but now I have to write some Java! ;-)

I think my options are either to write a NewsGroupGenerator in the Cocoon
framework, or a URLStreamHandler (and URLStreamHandlerFactory) in the Java
URL framework. With a URL-handler I could just use the standard
FileGenerator like so:


news:{1}"; />




I am intending to use the URL framework, but can anyone suggest why a
Generator might be better?
