| <h1>Goal</h1> |
| |
| <p> |
| This document lists all of the available readers of Apache Cocoon and |
| describes their purpose. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| <h1>Overview</h1> |
| |
| <p> |
| A reader is the starting, and end point of an xml pipeline. |
| It collapses the features of a generator, transformer, and serializer. |
| Readers are useful for delivering binary content like images; more |
| general readers deliver content as-is. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| In the sitemap file, each reader has a unique name which is mapped |
| to a java class. |
| One reader name must be declared as the default reader. |
| Each reader may have additional configuration information specified in |
| child elements. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| For conceptual information on readers see the user's guide document |
| <a href="../concepts/sitemap.html">The Sitemap</a>. |
