There is no way for the generator to know how xml can be generated

even better do it yourself - you'll get a better knowledge of how
cocoon works.
Yes, I thought already that it would go in that direction. I was
hoping that reflection was used to get information about a class
(e.g. as in Castor).
you can of course use castor generator but I do not know if castor is
able to generate anything if it has no mapping file.
I meant transformer
Actually, it can, it will use reflection, at least the documentation
tells so:
"Castor can marshal "almost" any arbitrary Object to and from XML. When
descriptors are not available for a specfic Class, the marshalling
framework uses reflection to gain information about the object."
see http://castor.codehaus.org/xml-framework.html
It does require that the object implements the java.io.Serializable
interface, though, implying that one has to change the relevant
DomainObject class (or extend them to create cocoon/castor specific
classes).
