implicit sling:resourceType?

[sam lee <sk...@gmail.com>]

Hey,

I have a node:

/content/page

whose sling:resourceType = "/apps/foo/bar"

So,  GET /content/page.html  will be handled by /apps/foo/bar/html.jsp

I cannot modify sling:resourceType of /content/page.

However, I would like GET /content/page.edit.html  to be handled by
/apps/foo/bar2/edit.html.jsp

Is this possible? I cannot modify /apps/foo/bar  and /content/page. But I
want .edit.html to be handled by /apps/foo/bar2.

Should I add a servlet with:
sling.servlet.resourceTypes = sling/servlet/default
sling.servlet.selectors = edit

to capture all .edit.html  and somehow "call" /apps/foo/bar2/edit.html.jsp
?  (maybe a redirect?)

Hi Sam

I think the RequestDispatcherOptions[0] might be what you're looking
for. It allows you to control certain aspects of re-dispatching
("forwarding" and "including") a request, including forcing a
different resource type. You could use this API in a servlet
registered for the "edit" selector, as you suggested.

Hi Sam,

Why does it have to be handled by /apps/foo/bar2?  In your /apps/foo/bar,
create a jsp called edit.jsp and you're done because that one will be called
based on your "edit" selector when you call /content/page.edit.html  What is
the reasoning behind another component handling your edits?
