Newbie: Multiple screen elements in one page?
Hello,
I'm wondering how to include multiple screens in my page? Is there only
one $screen_placeholder defined?
I would like to do something like
#if ( $data.getMessage() )
{
$data.getMessage()
}
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td>$navigation.setTemplate("/default_top.vm")</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>$screen_placeholder_for_headlines_only</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>$screen_placeholder_for_articles</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>$navigation.setTemplate("/default_bottom.vm")</td>
</tr>
</table>
Any hints?
/peter

It depends what you are using for your default Velocity layout class. Check
the following setting in your TurbineResources.properties file:
services.VelocityService.default.layout = VelocityOnlyLayout
Take a look in the "org.apache.turbine.modules.layouts" package to see the
layout classes that come with Turbine. The most commonly used layout classes
in Turbine 2.x are VelocityECSLayout and VelocityOnlyLayout. These layout
classes allow you to only have a single $screen_placeholder defined in your
layout template. This placeholder ends up being replaced by the screen the
client is requesting (ie: the "template" parameter in the request).
However, if you really need to have more than one screen in a single page
(ie: if you are creating a portal style site), you can use
VelocityDirectLayout and you should be able to do what you want by using the
following references in your layout template...
$screen_placeholder
This will be replaced by the screen the user is requesting.
$screen_placeholder.setScreen("Headlines")
This will be replaced by the output of the "Headlines" screen

I am not sure that using VelocityDirectLayout is the best solution to your
problem. An alternative is to use a navigation template for your headlines
and a screen template for your articles. Another alternative is to just
place all your required display logic within a single screen... it really
depends on your requirements.
If you need more help, you may want to explain your requirements in more
depth.
Cheers!

Thanks for the help.
I will use a Navigation screen that puts the articles i need into the
context.

Re: torque: linking custom tables to TURBINE_USER?
Posted by peter neubauer <pe...@yahoo.se>.
Btw.
Torque installs my Flux table into the application database. But that
means that the generated classes get into
com.mycompany.myapp.om.TurbineUser etc. structure. Now when I link
something to these classes, it becomes incompatible with the default
behavior:
Schema (this is in the turbine-schema, I should probably use your
suggestion, but this one works right now):
<table name="AUTHOR" idMethod="idbroker">
<column name="AUTHOR_ID" required="true" primaryKey="true"
type="INTEGER"/>
<column name="NAME" size="255" type="VARCHAR"/>
<column name="USER_ID" type="INTEGER"/>
<foreign-key foreignTable="TURBINE_USER">
<reference local="USER_ID" foreign="USER_ID"/>
</foreign-key>
</table>
Velocity:
User: $user.class.name
User: $article.Author.TurbineUser.class.name
HTML:
User: org.apache.turbine.om.security.TurbineUser
User: com.techtor.fotonytt.om.TurbineUser
Is there a way around it? Now I cannot cast these classes against each
other. Is there a config for that? Can I get FLux to use my classes
instead of the default binary ones?

Posted by Scott Eade <se...@backstagetech.com.au>.
Peter,
You need to look at the extend-user howto up on the turbine site:
http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/turbine-2/howto/extend-user-howto.html
This is based on turbine 2.1. I am pretty sure this is not a solution for
turbine 2.2 or 3.0. Someone in the know will need to update this for
turbine 2.2 if the same approach is indeed appropriate. I was going to look
at this today, but other things have cropped up that have demanded my
immediate attention. Hopefully I will get some time to have a look at it
next week or so.
HTH,
Scott

torque: linking custom tables to TURBINE_USER?
Posted by peter neubauer <pe...@yahoo.se>.
Hello,
I would like to create a link between a custom table and the user table
in the turbine-schema.xml in order to be able to connect the user and my
custom object. when I try to reference that table in my-schema.xml, I
get an error that the table is not existent, running "ant init". Do I
have to include my schema in the same file as turbine-schema.xml in
order to make it work? Both schemas are using the same databse.
