Take a look at
http://www.inventivedesigners.com/products/scriptura/demo.html

Inventive Designers' product Scriptura was used to design the document and
merge the dynamic data (as text and as a bar code). Cocoon is serving the
page (using its built-in FOP rendering capabilities).

Re: Proposal: Documentation about database connection

Posted by Barbara Post <ba...@ifrance.com>.
This is great, I can provide the part for Tamino 3.1, XML native DB.

However, I would need to host a small zip file somewhere, since the
officially released jar is not ok for now... A colleague modified the
classes for it to work with Cocoon.
Within some months changes are expected : version 4.1 of Tamino will be
issued in December so I don't know about the driver's usability....
Unfortunately I leave the company the same month (end of internship, looking
for a first job... I live in Paris, France) so won't be able to help more
afterwards. Official link will be provided in what I have to prepare to post
:-) and whic will then only be a summary.

Idea for my page's name : Tamino31;
Let me know when I can link it and where :-)

I think this is fine. What about to make it in Wiki?

Proposal: Documentation about database connection

Posted by Gabriele Domenichini <ga...@fastmail.fm>.
What about setting up a page with the configurations needed to connect cocoon 
to the various database ?
There is already something but is distributed among web pages, cocoon official 
documentation, mailing lists, etc...

I was thinking about a page in which for any commercial or open source 
databases is written:
* where to find jdbc drivers
* how to modify the configuration filles
* notes about personal experiences

Example:
Oracle:
1. download the drivers from ..
2. the jar you need to add to the cocoon\web-inf\lib is ... (Idon't remember 
sorry)
3. web.xml: add the following lines.....
4. cocoon.xconf: add the following lines.....
5. sitemap.xmp: add lines like the following
Notes:......

IBM As400:
1. download the drivers from ..
2. the jar you need to add to the cocoon\web-inf\lib is ... (Idon't remember 
sorry)
3. web.xml: add the following lines.....
4. cocoon.xconf: add the following lines.....
5. sitemap.xmp: add lines like the following

I could do it for theese database and the ideal page is on cocoon wiky.
If you give me suggestion on where to put it and the mailing list can 
contribute I can start the page

RE: XML to PDF

Posted by Tony Goodwin <go...@quinn-group.com>.
I have achieved this using some work originally done by
 Nikolai Grigoriev at renderx.com.
You may still be able to find some examples from their
web site. If not come back, and I'll email some privately
rather than clog up this list.
