Jetspeed and Dojo
I am looking to use dojo 1.1.1 in a new layout decoration. Jetspeed-2
comes with dojo 0.4. AFAIK it's only for desktop themes. I need to use
the latest one in my decorator, and may be in a new desktop theme. How
can I integrate the latest dojo, or replace the other one with breaking
anything? I am considering copying the new dojo over the old one in the
jetspeed/javascript directory. I am sure this will break some desktop
layouts, but that's ok with me. Will be there any other effects?
I am not very strong in spring, so I am wondering if I need to modify
anything in assemble/headtag.xml which initalizes the dojo and
configures it.
Any comments ?

Thank you for clarification. So j2-admin portlets WILL break as they use
the dojo included in jetspeed application. In this case I will keep the
default dojo and just add mine as I described.

Do not override the existing Dojo distributed with Jetspeed. It will
break several administrative portlets and the desktop
Sounds like you are taking the right approach. We have decorators
integrated with other clientside libraries such as Backbase with no
problem

Ok, I found it. For anyone who needs the new dojo, here's my notes.
In order to use the latest dojo just exctract the tar file into
"javascript" directory and make sure that the name does not conflict
with the older release. The older release is dojo 0.4 and it's in the
directory "dojo" which resides in the javascript directory.
So we will have something like this:
javascript
dojo
dojo-release-1.1.1
....
now in your template for the decorator, include this line:
<script type="text/javascript"
src="#BaseHref()javascript/dojo-release-1.1.1/dojo/dojo.js"></script>
and this will include the new release of dojo in your decorator.
Alternatively you can always, write a macro that will expand to the
above line, and save time on upgrade.
Later, if you are not going to use any of the available desktop themes
you can remove the old dojo, and update the dojo.path in
assembley/headtag.xml.
I am not sure if this will break any of the portlets available in j2-admin.
Can someone advice me on this ?
