[Jelly] invokeBody with nested tags?

[Vincent Massol <vm...@pivolis.com>]

Hi,

I'd like to create a dynamic tag which can be used with nested tags.
Here's what I'd like to write:
 
  <define:taglib uri="cactus">
    <define:tag name="cactus">
      <cactus [...]>
        [...]
        <define:invokeBody/>
      </cactus>
    </define:tag>
  </define:taglib>

Then, it would be used like this:

  <cactus:cactus>
    <ant:batchtest>
      <ant:fileset dir="${cactus.src.dir}"
        includes="${cactus.src.includes}"
        excludes="${cactus.src.excludes}"/>
    </ant:batchtest>
  </cactus:cactus>

I would like this to be equivalent to a call to:

  <cactus [...]>
    [...]
    <ant:batchtest>
      <ant:fileset dir="${cactus.src.dir}"
        includes="${cactus.src.includes}"
        excludes="${cactus.src.excludes}"/>
    </ant:batchtest>
  </cactus>

Is that possible? I've tried it and it seems the <ant:batchest>[...]
part is simply ignored.

Does invokeBody only works with text? Can it work with nested tags too?
How can I achieve the above?

Thanks a lot
-Vincent

Thanks Peter,

Here is an example (I've created
http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=JELLY-95):

<project
  default="mytest"
  xmlns:j="jelly:core"
  xmlns:maven="jelly:maven"
  xmlns:ant="jelly:ant"
  xmlns:define="jelly:define"
  xmlns:mytaglib="mytaglib">

  <define:taglib uri="mytaglib">
    <define:tag name="mytag">
      <ant:condition property="ok">
        <define:invokeBody/>
      </ant:condition>
    </define:tag>
  </define:taglib>

  <goal name="mytest">

    <mytaglib:mytag>
      <ant:equals arg1="arg" arg2="arg"/>
    </mytaglib:mytag>

    Result = ${ok}
    
  </goal>

  <goal name="mytest2">

    <ant:condition property="ok2">
      <ant:equals arg1="arg" arg2="arg"/>
    </ant:condition>

    Result = ${ok2}
    
  </goal>
  
</project>

Calling mytest fails whereas mytest2 works.

Thanks

 From what I know, it *should* work. invokeBody invokes nested tags when 
called from tags defined in java, i don't see why it should be 
different for jelly-based tags. if you work up a testcase and stick it 
in jira, that'll increase chances of other eyes looking at it :)
