Re: [IMAP Generator] status webapp
hi, team
some status notes about the MailGenerator.
The MailGenerator is dead, long live MailAction!
I moved over to a MailAction instead of a MailGenerator.
Some explanation to this move:
* MailAction puts javamail objects as XMLizable objects
into the request attribute
* Generators xsp page can pick these XMLizable objects
and generate XML very easily,
eg.: <xsp-request:get-attribute name="messages" as="object"/>
* MailAction understands a series of commands, which triggers
what javamail object should get generated,
today following commands are supported:
cat-folder : put folder object into request attribute
list-folder-messages : put messages of a folder into request attribute
search-folder : use javax.mail.search for searching for messages in
folder
I moved to MailAction, as it is still to access the original javamail
objects, folder, message, etc, and to decide later in the xsp for
example what kind of object should get marshalled.
Now I'm finalizing the stuff, in the next days i'd like to write some
doc, and put it into scratchpad.
to-do:
* accessing some strange mail-body
* generating and displaying a list of attachments
* brush of example Mail webapp.
some quick snapshot of the mail webapp:
http://members.a1.net/berni_huber/cocoon-webmail-1.gif, and
http://members.a1.net/berni_huber/cocoon-webmail-2.gif.
ah by the way as i have not imap access all the time i wrote an mbox
provider for accessing mbox files, downloaded the cocoon-user mboxes,
and do testing with these mboxes, but this needs some work as writing
an mbox to jisp writer, ....
any comments?
regards bernhard

Just to be sure:
i'm going to create a new org.apache.cocoon.mail directory
putting the mail releated stuff there.
moreover i'll create an mail directory in the scratchpad webapp
area.
Auxilliary sitemap components of the Webmail application i'm going
to put into
org.apache.cocooon.generation,
org.apache.cocooon.seclection, etc.
that's all releates to the main-trunk, and not for the 2_0_3 branch.
just to be sure that scratchpad is the right are to put everything...
ups, need to add the cocoon apache header to eache java source

okay, seeing forward to get it done.
I was very surprised how easily a static html version of the webmail
application could get generated, as more as i use Cocoon, the more
i love it, see

As said very often, once you understand the cocoon-way, things get
very easy.

Geez, you're going to do all my work for me! Not a bad thing though.
It's looking really good.

IMAP is pretty easy to add, I think my IMAPGenerator was committed to CVS
into scratchpad, so check it out if you need any examples. I'm looking
forward to seeing this stuff in scratchpad soon!

Yep yep. Semi-OT, I finally checked out the third Cocoon book, and it's
looking stellar... I think Amazon has it on sale.. must pick up... so much
to do and learn, so little time.

I love it!!!
IMAP reading and CVS reading/writing were the things that Cocoon was
missing. I see very exciting things coming up this year :)
