What's the use case here? If you're thinking about easy editing, why not putting the templates in the classpath and running an exploded WAR so it can be edited live when needed? -- Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo Independent Java, Apache Tapestry 5 and Hibernate consultant, developer, and instructor Owner, Ars Machina Tecnologia da Informação Ltda. http://www.arsmachina.com.br - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tapestry.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tapestry.apache.org
Re: T5: alternative template location
example: if you have a packaged blog system, user can customize it by editing those tml files, but when a new version is out, those 'in place' editing will be replaced, if user copies those tml file into a new directory, say 'plugins', then they will be preserved.

You can subclass the pages, use this customized template as the subclass one and use URL rewriting to do that.

You can contribute your own ComponentTemplateLocator.

T5: alternative template
Hi, I know T5 always team up template with java class using the same name, say, MyCars.java, then you need a MyCars.tml, is it possible we can have MyCarsAqua.tml, MyCarsClassic,tml, and we can programatically chose which tml to be rendered at runtime? this will bring a degree of configurability to the app, what do you think?

By the way, you can @InjectPage the other version, choose programatically the one you want and redirect to the chosen one by returning it in onActivate(). this will bring a degree of configurability to the app, what do you think? I don't think it is a good idea.

Re: T5: alternative template
Hi Thiago, Thanks, Inject page is an option, it will look like this: localhost/mycars localhost/mycarsaqua is there a way that, even I inject MyCarAqua, its url still localhost/mycars?

I've never actually tried it, but I would create a block (or component) in each alternate page, create a getter that returns this block, inject the alternate pages in MyCars and use the Delegate component to render the block. This is similar to how BeanEditFrom/BeanEditor works: it renders components and blocks that are located in other pages. -- Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo Independent Java consultant, developer, and instructor http://www.arsmachina.com.br/thiago - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tapestry.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tapestry.apache.org
