Cocoon Usage and Code Samples
Hi,
I am new to Cocoon and wanted to evaluate it in the following perspective
for some of my projects
Dynamic excel generation based on xml (if not cocoon, is there any better
open source framework for this)
Dynamic UI content generation
Can it take xml data input as web services?
There are only a few samples there in the site. If any of you can share more
samples / additional details it is really appreciable.
Thanks,
Gopu

Thank you veru much for your details and it gives me more confidence in
evaluating Cocoon. I will try out the options you suggested.

Hi Gopu,
I've generated Excel sheets using the HSSF serializer (http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/xls-serializer.html), works great. Just transform your data to the Gnumeric XML format and use <map:serialize type="xls"/> at the end of your pipeline to have Cocoon serialize your Gnumeric XML to a MS Excel sheet.
Regarding your second question: it's what Cocoon is about, generating content dynamically. Every URL you can think of can be handled dynamically or mapped to a file.
I cant really parse your second question. If you want to use XML from web services as input to Cocoon, sure, you can do that easily. Just use <map:generate src="http://your.webservice.com/blabla"/> or use the Cinclude transformer to load XML from a URL you constructed from other input.
Hartelijke groet,
Huib Verweij.
