28 | /** | |
29 | * The idea of a pipeline is being taken from Catalina | |
30 | * in its entirety :-) | |
31 | * | |
32 | * I would like to take the idea further and implement | |
33 | * Valves instead of hardcoding particular methods | |
34 | * in a pipeline. | |
35 | * | |
36 | * It would be more flexible to specify Valves for | |
37 | * a pipeline in an XML file (we can also rip off the | |
38 | * digester rules from T4) and have invoke() as part | |
39 | * of the interface. | |
40 | * | |
41 | * So a set of Valves would be added to the pipeline | |
42 | * and the pipeline would 'invoke' each valve. In the | |
43 | * case Turbine each Valve would produce some output | |
44 | * to be sent out the pipe. I think with another days | |
45 | * work this can be fully working. The first pipeline | |
46 | * to be fully implemented will the ClassicPipeline | |
47 | * will emulate the Turbine 2.1 way of doing things. | |
