Hi, It was a rather short and quick answer, but yes, depending on the component that extracts the files and writes them, it is in principle possible to extract all types of files. SourceWriting component however uses XML/DOM as intermediate, so that component is unuseable as it is. (At least how it was around versions 2.1.4 - 2.1.6..)
The SaveFiles transformer however is exactly written for this task. It doesn't cache anything, it redirect an inputstream to an outputstream internally and is therefore capable of handling binary. Only the outcome (fail or success) is passed to cocoon as xml. More about it on wiki: http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/SaveFilesTransformer My zipsource produces on long xml with the full contents. One xsl pass converts this to savefiles instruction sheet, just a long list of save:file elements with a src and a target attribute. These can be processed in a single pass with the transformer. The end result of this transform can be used to produce a fail/success report. One final note on Cocoon Actions, the alternative on which Joerg Heinicke responded: be aware of the moment on which actions are executed. Regardless of where they are called within a request-chain, they are always executed _before_ the actual processing in a pipeline. This is only important if you intend to process the files with the same request that also extracts the files. It might be very useful, but can be a bottle-neck just as easily.
