Output to XML
Hi, I'm trying to create XML output for the blog as I want to create a
custom GWT theme. I don't want to use the velocity engine , I want to use
direct Java object so I can produce well formated XML.
Any idea ?
Example
Service.jsp?action=page&pageid=1
Out:
<Page>
<Title>Hello World</Title>
<Content>Welcome to the First Page<Content/>
</Page>
Thanks in advance

Thank you all for the help, I like the feed idea WEB-INF/velocity/feeds.vm ,
so I will create a clone of that and modify it.
But how to request user's account ? so basically if I have a Tom and Mike,
and wants to get Mike's blog posts, how to pass that ?
So I'm not sure how to do those points:
1-I want to create a file name service.jsp and be connected to my service.vm
(Never used velocity )
2-I want to do call like this service.jsp?user=mike&action=post&post_id=4 ,
this should return the post as XML (I don't need help in doing the XML) I
just don't know who to get the service.jsp up and connect to volicity file !
Thanks in Advance.

What do you need to modify? The output generated follows the
conventions/data established by RSS and Atom, so there's a good chance
they use frameworks to generate their content. As for the specific
files that do this, I'm unsure but hopefully one of the other
developers can help you.

I would recommend grabbing the Atom or RSS feed for the blog rather
than the HTML output.

The Velocity engine can be used to produce well-formed validating XML,
in fact, that's what we use to create the RSS and Atom feeds. See
WEB-INF/velocity/feeds.vm and WEB-INF/velocity/templates/feeds.
