Cocoon 2.2 install
Is there a simple howto to install/run Cocoon 2.2? I have been looking
around and I haven't found anything that explains how to do it. I
haven't found any download links at the cocoon site.
With 2.1 was just download, extract, run the startup script. I have no
idea how to begin, or were to find 2.2

Um? No I don't think so.
I download the source from the subversion server [1].
The instructions to build that are in the README file (and yes... Maven
is also used to build that!) This file also contains some very useful
links [2] and [3] which may answer all your questions.

Why do you need sources? If it's for debugging purposes then answer is yes, Maven will download
needed sources for debugging.

I'd like to get the source code when 'installing' Coccon 2.2. Can I
get the source code for 2.2 using maven, also?

This site may be handy:
http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.cocoon
Also you should always check our website. For example, if you want to check artifact id of template
block you can find all needed information here:
http://cocoon.apache.org/2.2/blocks/template/1.0/project-summary.html

*My* problem is that I don't know what the artifact-ids for the
various blocks are. I imagine I have to specify these maven
dependencies in my POM, right?

Ah!... I understand ;-)
Maven does all the 'installing' for you. As I said, Cocoon 2.2 is very
different from earlier versions. Maven is the key. If you run Maven
from the command line as shown in the tutorial [1] it will download what
it needs from a remote repository and build a skeletal Cocoon 2.2
application for you. Then you have to figure out how to split up your
existing app into suitable blocks and fit them into the new structure.
Following the other tutorials in sequence will help you understand how
to connect up other blocks.
Maven is used to do most of the heavy lifting from compiling your source
files to creating javadocs, running tests and deploying your final
application. It would be wise to read up on Maven a little.

I did, I was looking for a sample using eclipse and the maven plugin. I
guess I have to install the console version of maven, right?

I don't mind it being different, the problem is no documentation on how
to do things (or if there is, I can't find it) and I can't even figure
out how to install it.

Well a wiki on how to get a basic cocoon 2.2 environment working in
eclipse would be useful. I have an application working in cocoon 2.1
(some ServletGenerators, StreamGenerators, Actions,...) and want to see
how to start moving things to the new version.

When you say:
"I wonder why the version number went from 2.1 to 2.2 "
I assume you meant:
I wonder why the version number ONLY went from 2.1 to 2.2"
Basically Cocoon is one of the most conservative software systems
in terms of numbering that I have seen - the fact that we have gone
from version (about) 1.9 to 2.2 in 8 years does not mean there is
nothing happening - quite the contrary in fact - but it does seem
strange to those new to it.
Personally I quite like the Ubuntu system of YY.MM format for their
release numbering; its unambiguous and provides an instant "history"
for the project (of course, Cocoon would have started off, say, as 99.01
and moved on to 00.08 or some such... ;).

Hi Fawzib,
The main overview of Cocoon 2.2 can be found on the apache web site. [1]
You should also take a close look at the section titled 'Your first
Cocoon application using Maven 2' [2]
Cocoon 2.2 is radically different but I definitely think it's worth it.
The fact it uses Maven and Spring and makes a decent attempt to
modularize are reasons enough for me to update.
Keep in mind that you no longer get a bucket-load of examples ready to
run once you have built it and the documentation is still very
fragmentary at this stage. I wonder why the version number went from
2.1 to 2.2 when things have changed so much?
