[opencms-dev] Java class to translate XML code contained in the VFS in HTML page source code

[Stephan Hartmann]

Hi Massimiliano,

the launcher mechanism calls a getContent method of an instance of
com.opencms.template.CmsXmlTemplate and writes the result (a byte[])
directly into the http response.
You should try something like this:

CmsXmlTemplate cxl = new CmsXmlTemplate();
byte[] result = cxl.getContent(cmso, "/vfs/path/to/file", null, new
Hashtable(), null);

Bye,
Stephan
