<pages package="...." should also recursively search for Page classes
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CLK-786
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLK-786
Project: Click
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Reporter: Matt Skinner
I would like to have the configuration option :
{noformat}
<pages package="some.package.pages" />
{noformat}
be able to have an option (or by default) to search for pages recursively through the package structure. I believe the Spring framework does this with its autowiring so I think it would be beneficial to also have this in click.

Bob Schellink commented on CLK-786:
-----------------------------------
Hi, Click already supports this option, <pages package="com.mycorp.page"/>, but instead of scanning classes it scans the templates. It is much easier to scan for templates as there is a standard way to do this. Scanning classes in a J2EE server is hard and some servers implement their own file systems (JBoss 6) which means one has to implement server specific ways of scanning the classpath.
What is the use case for this feature?
