Re: [TRINIDAD] New element in trinidad-skins.xml /SkinImpl/SkinAddition

[Jeanne Waldman]

I should mention that the customer wants to bind to an XLIFF file which will get automatically converted to a Map in Jdeveloper, and maybe other IDEs. I don't know. I still need to test out this automatic conversion. So they get a Map for free. Simon Lessard wrote: Hello Jeanne, I could live with that as long as the XSD should prevents the usage of both a bundle and a map at the same time. However, I would prefer a "resource-bundle" element than a "translation-map". For one, it's much easier to create a ResourceBundle from a Map than the other way around. Also, that would be more aligned with JSF 1.2 since its include a way to define resource-bundle with a var name within the faces-config.xml. ~ Simon On 9/21/07, Jeanne Waldman < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi, I have a new issue I need to resolve and I wanted to run by my solution -- https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRINIDAD-728 "support for el to be used in a skin to bind to other translation data sources" Currently, a SkinExtension and SkinAddition can have resource bundles associated with them so that a person can "skin" text. We have customers who want to use a Map that is EL-accessible instead of a ResourceBundle. I'd like to add a  'translation-map' element to the <skin> and <skin-addition> elements in trinidad-skins.xml. I'd add new constructors to SkinExtension and SkinAddition to accept a translationMap ValueExpression. Let me know what you think and if you think 'translation-map' is a good name for the new element. See below for an example.
