is anyone planning on commiting that VelocityLayoutServlet code? I'm still in need of a layout mechanism for use with webwork, these jsp:includes are not cutting it, I also put up a jira issue a while ago: http://jira.opensymphony.com/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=WW-232
so we could use ww2 tags in sitemesh decorators

If you have looked at the Velocity Tools project and like the VelocityLayoutServlet idea, you may try what is described in

It works for me (have not used it very much though), but it is not part of WW2. The usage of Velocity Tools is also very ugly in that solution described.

to put the includes in your page...

Subject: [OS-webwork] velocity, layouts, and flow



I'm beginning work on my velocity templates for my ww2 app, and I'm having a bit of an issue. Ideally, I'd have a template that contains my header and footer, and then a token that inserts the appropriate screen into it.


In my xwork.xml, I would have a result that points to screen1.vm, and screen would be inserted into my layout.

As it stands, it looks like I will have to include the header at the top of everyone of my screens and include the footer at the bottom. My other option would be have one velocity template that takes a parameter which is the screenname, and then icnludes that. that'd be pretty ugly also, in that I can't just make the result the destination screen.

Any ideas on the best way to skin this cat?
