Field Detail

### UNCACHEABLE

    public static final Changeable UNCACHEABLE

Method Detail

### getInstance

    public static Engine getInstance(Configurations confs,
                                     java.lang.Object context)
                              throws java.lang.Exception

  This will return a new instance of the Engine class, and handle pooling of instances. In this implementation, one instance is created per servlet context. This replaces using the constructor directly, because now the Cocoon servlet can initialize the Engine, and other servlets and classes can use the same engine, in order to funnel requests through Cocoon.
  Parameters:
    `confs` - - Configuration file information
    `context` - - Object to use for Servlet Context
  Returns:
    Engine - instance to operate on
  Throws:
    `java.lang.Exception` - - when things go awry

### getInstance

    public static Engine getInstance()
                              throws java.lang.Exception

  This is the `getInstance()` version that should be used by anything other than the Cocoon servlet itself. This assumes that the engine has been set up and is ready to be used. If this is called before the instance has been correctly created, it throws an exception.
  Returns:
    Engine - instance to operate on

### handle

    public void handle(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
                       javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response)
                throws java.lang.Exception

  This method is called to start the processing when calling the engine from the Cocoon servlet.

### getStatus

    public java.util.Hashtable getStatus()

  Returns an hashtable of parameters used to report the internal status.

### destroy

    public void destroy()
