Random generator
Hi Folks!
Is in Cocoon support for generating random database keys? Or a function that
can return a random number?
I know that in Java is support for the Random class. This class generate a
sequence based on a seed (like always).
The point is: I need generator of random numbers that will live all the
run-time to return for every request a new random number lets said: 2^32.
Maybe this generator of random numbers can be called inside an action or in a
xsp fashion.
Thanks in advance
Antonio Gallardo.

There's an InputModule for that. It might not fulfill all your needs
but could be a starting point. You can simply specify it in the mod-db
descriptor to be used for a column.
