Hi all,
Apologies if this has been sent around before.
Hi Dominic,
Actually, if you was going to apologize for anything cross-posting to
two lists would be my first choice. ;-)
I'm trying to figure out how I can access resources outside of a
Block jar's, just from a directory within the Webapp:
For example:
I have the simple pipe line:
<map:pipeline>
<map:match pattern="static/*.shtml">
<map:generate src="content/{1}.xml"/>
<map:serialize type="xml"/>
</map:match>
</map:pipeline>
This is part of the block called Homepage. In Homepage block, I
have /src/main/resources/COB-INF/content/index.xml. This is all
fine, when access the block via jetty and tomcat, the
content/index.xml file is served from COB-INF in the Homepage.jar.
However, I don't want to have to store my xslt, xml and all other
static files in a jar. I don't want to have to re-jar the block and
redeploy it to tomcat or start up jetty each time I make a small
change an xslt.
I want a directory content/ within my webapp, where index.xml is read
from there. i.e.:
webapps/Homepage
content/index.xml <---- serve this
.xml file so I can make changes to it quickly and see the results
WEB-INF/lib/Homepage.jar <--- don't
look at COB-INF/content/index.xml, if the above exists.
This is so I can do RAD development on my local development
environment. This was possible in 2.1, but it seems in 2.2 I can't
find any documentation on how this is possible. It seems like a
simple thing….
Your resources should be always (or almost always) stored in a block.
For RAD purposes we have created special helper plug-in[1] for Maven.
You can see it in action here:

Oh gosh, I forgot that I promised to publish it officially on our
site. I'll try to do it over this weekend.

Thanks for the tutorial video. The more of these the better for those of
us who don't yet know
Java, Maven, Eclipse, ...
BUT... at the end of the video you say "Isn't that really really RAPID
development?"
My answer is "No, not compared with editing the sitemap or other static
file and pressing
refresh in my Browser. That's been my working method for several years
of Cocoon use."
OK, so this is more like minor tweaking than 'development' but that's
the way I like
to do things.
Please make this possible again, or if it already is possible, tell us how.
