This is a general question as to the suitability of
Cocoon2 for an application I am investigating.
I have taken a look at the samples and it appears
very impressive. Unfortunately it is difficult to see from those if it
would be suitable for my requirements, or the best way to approach proving
it.
A bit of advice from someone who understands the
philosophy behind Cocoon, would be appreciated to help me on my
way.
I have Struts based application front-ending a Java
API call set, which enables it to talk to a back-end server. This produces
an acceptable user interface. What I want to be able to do is, deliver
several different html 'look & feel's from the same interface, without
having to get into code [jsp] editing.
My [newbie] thought is if I made a one-time change
to my jsp's to output xml content, I could then deliver it via Cocoon with a
run-time switch, based on uri, as to which transformer it was parsed by to
deliver the version required.
Would it be possible to embed my Struts application
as a Generator within Cocoon, or would I be expected to re-write it in xsp, or a
bit of both?
Any thoughts would be most
appreciated.
