Hello.
I'm new to Maverick, and I'm trying to make my first Maverick application. I
like what I see, but I'm sure I'd like it a whole lot better when I learn
things that I don't see yet :)
I have an arbitrary collection of .vm files, which I present to my user as a
dynamically generated choice of links on one page. I'd like the link to be
something like "choose.m?page=seventeenth", and to have the choose command
render the /collection/seventeenth.vm. If I understand correctly, I can make a
"null" or "trivial" view, then have the controller manually invoke Velocity to
render the response. Is there a better way? Can I somehow set the path for the
"document" view from inside the controller? Or, does something like the
following have any chance of working? (it doesn't, but could it, with minor
adjustments which I currently cannot fathom?)
<command name="choose">
<controller class="...Choose"/>
<view name="success" type="redirect" />
</command>
class Choose
public String go(ControllerContext cctx)
throws ServletException {
HttpServletRequest req = cctx.getRequest();
String page = req.getParameter("page");
cctx.setModel("/collection/" + page + ".vm");
return "success";
}
}
I tried looking at the source, but I can't figure out how the document type
invokes the Velocity, so I can't go and replicate it... Help?
Thanks
Goran
