The question I have is on what could you mean by "generate files".
If you can just have an job to hit a particular url, then you can use
tapestry to generate that url.
If you want tapestry to programmatically generate a page, that is
conceptually possible, and I think I saw some code floating around, but
I've not done it, and it's not generally used.
You can also have a component capture the output of it's rendering and
have it do whatever it wants with that. For example, I have a Buffer
component that caches the output and puts it in memcached. You could
have a component that dumps its output to a file (but it would still
require an outside process to hit a url to generate the page to have the
component generate itself)..
Have I confused you enough yet?

Hello all,
Our application has the need to generate files.
I'm interested in trying to use Tapestry to do this since we're already
using T5 on the presentation layer.
Has anyone extracted the Tapestry templating engine to do other
processing? Something like the pseudo-code below:
// BEGIN
@Inject
ComponentRenderer cr;
MyComponent component = new MyComponent();
component.setName("Test");
OutputStream os = cr.render(component);
// END
Can anyone point me to the right package/class to look at for something
like this?
Thanks!
Joel
