embedd a component in another

[Olaf Lüke]

Hallo,

I wrote a component that can render me an olap table using mondrian with a customized jpivot. this component should be independent from all other components, so the olap support can be enabled/disabled easily. What is the best way to embedd this component in the main component?
I am new to ofbiz and a little bit puzzled by the huge amount of configuration files.

To make this clear, there is something like
applications/frontend/...
and
applications/mondrian/...

and i want to embedd things from mondrina/ (which does have an own webapp and so on) in frontend.

cheers,
Olaf

Jacopo recently added the olap functionality to OFBiz in the special
purpose folder.  I gave instructions on how to incorporate openI last
year that uses mondrian
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Load+OpenI+%28Mondrian+Implementation%29+under+OFBiz

but to answer your question, the easiest place to put your customized
component is in the hot-deploy folder.  It will automatically get
loaded provided it has an ofbiz-component.xml file in the root of the
component.

The mondrian component itself works fine allready, but what is the best way to access it from another component? is it possible to configure the controller.xml from the frontend component in a way, that it renders a jsp from the mondrian component and shows it? I cant find any hints in the documentation for this.
