[C2] How to get web.xml parameters in an XSP ... ?
Hello all,
Is there any way to grab the <init-param> parameters defined in the web.xml
via an XSP? Or is this be considered a big no-no?

There is not a way currently, but you could do it if you wanted to dig a bit :)
Those parameters are read in the CocoonServlet class
(org.apache.cocoon.servlet package). Values in there are stuffed into the
Context (an avalon context, not servlet).
You could modify that class to put those parameters into the Context, but
then you have to get them out. AFAIK an XSP page is not Contextualizable
(an Avalon interface). You could give it that by modifying the styleshete
used to create the compiled XSP forms.
So yes, its possible, but it would take some legwork. It might be nice to
have a generic way to pass parameters to an instance of cocoon via web.xml,
maybe via the context. I'm sure if you wrote that the developers would
consider the patch.
