How are decorations/layouts located
Hi,
I want to make a new style based on tigris (basically, I just want to
adjust the header and some CSS settings).
I wonder if this is possible without copying the complete tigris tree.
The documentation about decorators says
"Individual decoartions are housed in thier own
directories underneath these two directories. The name of the
directory you create for under either layout or portlet is how
Jetspeed will locate your decoration. We will go into further
detail on how this works later on in this guide."
Well, "later" in this case refers to the future, not to a subsequent
part of the document ;-). Before I start digging in the sources: can
somebody describe the lookup algorithms for the decoration files within
the tree? Does it include using a "fallback", i.e. a "path of styles"?
This would ease the creation of "derived" styles tremendously.
Regards,
Michael

There is fallback logic, but it fallsback from language, country code,
media type (see JetspeedTemplateLocator.java)
The fallback does not go past the decorator directory (i.e. tigris)

Hi Michael, jetspeed finds the theme and portlet decorators in
decorations/layout and decorations/portlet. I looked into the
implementation and I can't say that I remember seeing a fallback
logic.
