Migration to Cocoon 2.2

Why changing from Cocoon 2.1 to 2.2 ? Because, Cocoon 2.2 will provide :

  • easy installation
  • real modularization

Easy installation

Cocoon 2.2 is totally mavenized. Some thinks it was not a good idea. Indeed, the mavenization process took a long time, and it's not obvious to learn then use maven, especially when documentation is lacking. But maven provides automatic packaging.

So, with Cocoon 2.2, it will be possible to have an OpenBlueLab war, that will permit one step installation.

Real modularization

Cocoon 2.2 provides the block concept which permits to enforce OpenBlueLab modularization.

Since the beginning, OpenBlueLab is based on the following modules :

  • cms
  • locator
  • guardian
  • navigation
  • ...
  • data-tamer
  • reporter
  • ...

These modules look like servlet contexts but are not. With cocoon 2.2, we'll have real servlet contexts.
