ProducerFromRequestClass Equivalent in version 1.8?

[AK...@burntsand.com]

I was trying to implement Eoin Lane's J2EE Example using JBoss, Tomcat,
Cocoon which was published recently in Javaworld.
 
The problem is that I have version 1.8.3 of Cocoon and the example is
implemented using version 1.7 of Cocoon, as a result
of which I was getting the "ProducerFromClass" class not found error. This
class existed in version 1.7 of Cocoon
 
Does anyone know what the equivalent class or a woraround for this is in
version 1.8.3 
 
Thanks

that example was, IMVHO, a terrible example of interacting with cocoon.

there is none. the ProducerFromRequest class was removed or security
reasons. in general, accepting either XML data with processing
instructions or XSL stylesheets from remote untrusted sources is _VERY_
dangerous - tantamount to giving anonymous remote users a shell account on
your server.
