[jira] [Closed] (TAP5-768) When Tapestry includes a JavaScript library, it should look for an adjacent second file that lists dependencies of that library

    Resolution: Won't Fix

The way Tapestry's JavaScriptStack mechanism has evolved overlaps with this in a way that would make implementing this problematic. It's now easy (and getting easier) to add JS to a stack, which is more performant at runtime anyway.

> Or, perhaps this should be a bit of configuration in some service.  Either way, there should be a way that a component can includes a JavaScript file, and automatically get the dependencies of that JavaScript file.  For example, I'm working on some code that uses Modalbox, and it has a dependency on scriptaculous' builder.js ... if I have multiple components that use Modalbox in different ways, each of them needs to know about that relationship.
> In fact, for YUI this is even more important as each component has some very specific dependencies.
> This could even be generalized to allow both dependent libraries AND dependency CSS (a common feature for Ajax libraries) to be automatically included.
