[C3] i18n support

[Francesco Chicchiriccò <il...@apache.org>]

Hi folks,
yesterday Thorsten wrote something about C3 and i18n support, and we 
also discussed something about this a while ago [1].

Since I need now this kind of support for my Hippo Cocoon Toolkit 
project [2], I think in the next weeks I'll be working on this topic, 
so: is there anything I can start from? Do you think that migrating 
Cocoon 2.2 components (as suggested in [3]) would be the easier / better 
way to do it?

Thanks.

Nice I will try it out ASAP. 

Thanks for your efforts.

Gents,
I've just committed all the modifications involved with issue 
COCOON3-64: I've ported the i18NTransformer in cocoon-sax (since no 
additional dependencies are involved), added some unit tests and some 
sitemap samples in cocoon-sitemap.

Some remarks:

1. With respects to comments into COCOON3-64, I've NOT ported all the 
classes from the trunk, but only the transformer: in particular, I 
thought - at least from the moment - not to consider XML catalogs but to 
use instead standard JDK ResourceBundle, much like other frameworks - 
namely Wicket - are doing.

2. This porting is for C3 only, even though I think it could be quit 
easily adaptable to C2.2 as well.

3. I've taken as reference for writing unit tests the old but still well 
written [4]: I think we should enclose something similar in C3 
documentation.

4. In C2.1 there used to be a "type" attribute, already deprecated in 
some situations like as

<i18n:param type="date" pattern="dd-MMM-yy" />

C3 I18NTransformer does not consider such situations at all; the sample 
above becomes - like it also used to be in C2.1

<i18n:param><i18n:date pattern="dd-MMM-yy" /></i18n:param>

5. I needed to port ParamSAXBuffer extending SAXBuffer (from 
cocoon-xml): for the moment I put its source in cocoon-sax, but of 
course the right place would be in cocoon-xml, so how could we handle 
this? Can I move that class to cocoon-xml's? In which SVN place? And how 
can we release a SNAPSHOT version of this subproject?

Regards.
