Where to put Selfmade Taglibs

[Eduard Ralph <ra...@mecmedia.de>]

Hi,

I've been experimenting with own Tag Libs. I took the existing Tag Libs as
basis and worte a very simple one myself.
My Question ist, where to I place this Tag Lib, if I want it to be included
like esql-Tag Lib? Is there some sort of standard directory, or how does
Cocoon find the actual file? Unfourtunenatly the Documentation on those
details are a little thinner ....

The mapping of those tag libs is specified by the configuration files.
In Cocoon 1 it is through cocoon.properties, and in Cocoon 2 it is
through cocoon.xconf.  You will see a number of taglibs using the URL
resource:/org/apache/cocoon/.... The "resource" pseudo protocol loads
the Taglibs from the classloader.  You can use the File protocol, or
in Cocoon 2 you can use the context protocol--which will load the
resource relative to the root of your context.

Using that approach I map my taglibs to
context:/WEB-INF/logicsheets/mysheet.xsl

Note: I may port this pseudo protocol to Cocoon 1 in the near future.

check out cocoon.properties.
