Changing the default location of the component template
Hello,
I am trying to use annotations instead of .jwc files.
I have a custom BaseComponent with a template. However, I want the
template to be located under WEB-INF/component/mycomponent.html.
Going through some of the code, I found out that you can specify the
location of the template using an asset named '$template'. This is
great, but how can I use it with annotation?
The only solution that I can think of is introducing a new annotation
say '@AssetTemplate("context:/WEB-INF/component/mycomponent.html")' .
This annotation will simply insert an asset named '$template' with the
given value.
I have seen other solutions using the ISpecificationResolverDelegate,
(http://wiki.apache.org/tapestry/PagesAndComponentsInWEB-INF), but the
Wiki is saying that there is a bug
(http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-894) that will prevent
the delegate solution from working correctly?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Better not use the $template asset - it's completely undocumented
and could go away without notice.
Go with the wiki suggestion - you can easily invent variations on it, i.e.
we like keeping the templates (for both pages and components) in the
same folder
as the .java files - a ClasspathSpecResolverDelegate and a
ClasspathComponentSpecResolver
are enough to do the trick.
fyi, TAPESTRY-894 has been fixed

Nevermind, get$template() was absolutely correct! Man that's ugly....

Was there something else to this? Any changes to the pages that use the
component? I cannot get this to work.
I presume you meant "getTemplate()" as opposed to "get$template()".
