Re: cocoon 2.2 tutorial won't work with tomcat5.5

2009-01-06 Thread Mathias Reem

Hi Benjamin


I remember some colleague of mine once had some problems deploying a
cocoon application on Tomcat 5.5, I am not sure about the exact
error and solution but he was able to quickly fix it after he enabled
some more logging options on tomcat as described at [1].


Can't find any error or problem in the logs, even though tomcat was
running on log-level ALL. But everything works fine in Tomcat 6. So I'll
stick to that version.

Thanks a lot!
Mathias

Using cocoon pipeline for import

2009-01-06 Thread Mathias Reem

Hi

I've got to fetch some XML data from an external webserver, preprocess 
it - using XSLT - and store the result in our database. At the moment 
this is done by a shellscript.


As this shall now be integrated to our application, I was wandering if 
using a cocoon pipeline for this task would be feasible, or a really bad 
idea? As far as I can see. I would only have to write my own Serializer, 
which instead of writing stuff to an OutputStream would commit the data 
to the database.


Any comment is welcome.

Mathias,

you won't have to write your own serializer but you can use the SQLtransformer 
[1].

last september I had the same problem and I sent a question to the mailing 
list, but unfortunately I couldn't solve the problem.

My impression is that it should be something related to the ubuntu 
distribution/configuration, because I could run the same WAR file on openSUSE 
10.3 using the same java and tomcat version.

Unfortunately our deployment server is running ubuntu: when I'll have more 
time, I'll look again at the problem.

Re: Display tag library with cocoon 2.1

Well, the problem as I see it is that you want to use a CForms
definition & template "like a JSP".  Except it isn't a JSP, so a JSP
tag library isn't going to be much use to you in this context as it's
too dependent on the JSP page lifecycle and process flow. You might as
well ask "how can I use this tag library in a Perl script?"...

About the only way it might work would be to create some sort of "JSP
tag" Cocoon transformer, that can instantiate an instance of the (or
any?) tag class, simulate enough of the JSP PageContext to allow the
tag to execute, then call its doStartTag/doEndTag/etc. methods when
the triggering open & close elements are observed in the SAX event
stream (and buffering anything in between as necessary if it's a
BodyTag).  But that's not something I'd recommend unless you know
exactly what you're doing...

In my opinion you'd be better off figuring out some other way to
achieve similar effects with tables in Cocoon rather than trying to
get this taglib working in an environment it's not designed for.
http://displaytag.sourceforge.net/1.2/index.html mentions "sorting,
paging, cropping, grouping, exporting, ..."  I've not done much with
CForms myself so I don't know if it's got other ways to do these, but
many of them could be done in an XSL transformation, or through
client-side javascript; the paging could be done through a
FilterTransformer; the exporting could be done through a separate
pipeline based on the same data source but with a different
transformation and a FOP or HSSF serialiser...

Hope this helps,


Andy

form validation bug re. the aggregate field?

2009-01-06 Thread Paul Joseph

Hi,

(Using Cocoon 2.1.7)

I have a form with an aggregate field whose "required" property is set 
to "false" like so:




I also have a save button that is set to validate the other fields whose 
required property is "true" like so:

  

The net result is that I still have to put something into the aggregate 
field before it will save--else it simply flashes the form on the screen 
without saving anything and without entering the flow script.


Once I set the save command to NOT validate, then I don't have to fill 
in the aggregate field.


Is there some bug where the validate= "true" does not play with the 
aggregate field, always expecting it to be set to some value?


thx
Paul

Access Settings object of Spring Configurator inside sitemap.xmap?

2009-01-06 Thread Gabriel Gruber
hi,
just a quick one... is it possible to access the "settings" object of the 
cocoon spring configurator (to get the supposed cache dir) within the 
sitemap ? or do I have to write my own input module in order to get that 
running?

cheers,
gabriel

Re: Using cocoon pipeline for import

2009-01-06 Thread Mathias Reem

Hi Jasha


you won't have to write your own serializer but you can use the
SQLtransformer.


Thx. I had seen the SQLtransformer but thought, that it's intended to 
add data (from a DB) to a XML document. And doesn't each "match-block" 
in a pipeline need a sink (Serializer), for all the SAX Events. As this 
transformer would consume all events, I thought that would lead to errors.


I'm totally new to Cocoon, so sorry if I write bullshit.

Hi Jasha,

If I am interested in xml-relational mapping only, should
I use SQLtransformer or Hibernate?  Thanks,
