---------------------------------------
Assignee: Jeanne Waldman
> Allow registering stylesheets on a particular skin via an xml config file
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ADFFACES-292
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ADFFACES-292
> Project: MyFaces ADF-Faces
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Jeanne Waldman
> Assigned To: Jeanne Waldman
>
> Background:
> > Let's say a custom component developer created some new components. He
> > wants those components to "fit in" with the
> > 'simple' skin. He also wants them to "fit in" with the 'minimal' skin
> > or any other public skin out there. He doesn't have access to the files
> > where we
> > have this information -- our base-desktop.xss, simple-desktop.xss,
> > simple-pda.xss, etc.
> >
> > With Trinidad's Skin API, he can call the
> > skin.registerStyleSheet
> > ("styles/myCustomComponentsSimpleDesktop.css")
> > method on the skin instance. Aside: I'm not sure *when/where* the custom
> > component developer would do this, because it would need to be after we've
> > registered our base skins and any skin extensions, so presumably it
> > would need to be after the TrinidadFilter.
> >
> > It would be much nicer for the custom component developer if all he has
> > to do is create an .xml file and stick it in the META-INF
> > of his jar file. Then we'll parse the xml file and register the
> > stylesheets with the skins for him.
> Conclusion:
> On the list, we decided to add a <skin-addition> element to the
> trinidad-skins.xml file.
> We definitely want to allow these skin-additions to be in a .jar file,
> therefore we'll need trinidad-skins.xml to be able to be in a jar file.
