Hi Roy While the approach sounds interesting with some caveats: It has the whiteboard.listener property twice and it attaches to the default Http Context which may or may not reflect Sling’s own servlet context (mostly it does, but there is no guarantee). What you could do is use the CONTEXT_SELECT property and select the org.apache.sling context.
But then, I don’t think we should expose the Servlet Context Path in the Sling Settings. IMHO Sling Settings is about the Sling Application as a whole and not a specific aspect of Sling. And if the context path is properly exposed to your TransformerFactory, I think you just have everything you need. As I expect your TransformerFactory to only be used as part of request processing anyway, right ?
