Package name : jsilver Version : 1.0.0 Upstream Author : David Beaumont, Ben Dodso URL : http://code.google.com/p/jsilver License : Apache 2.0 Programming Lang: Java Description : Clearsilver templates in pure Java JSilver is a pure-Java implementation of Clearsilver. Key benefits of JSilver over Clearsilver include: Performance - Templates are only parsed when the file changes - not for each request. - Optionally, templates can be compiled directly to Java bytecode, making rendering super-fast. - Once-off template optimization step simplifies template making rendering even faster. - Internal optimizations to streamline string manipulation. Avoids the complexities of JNI - Avoids the risk of native code taking down the JVM. - Avoids JNI marshalling overhead. Simplifies IDE use (no more forgetting java.library.path). - Allows for easy extension in Java - API allows template functions to be defined in Java allowing logic to be pulled out of templates. - Custom escaping / text filters can be plugged in. - Makes plugging in translations much simpler (e.g. <?cs var:translate('some.message') ?>). - API designed with testability in mind. - Custom mechanisms can be plugged in for loading templates and caching. - Low-level access to template AST for advanced transformations. I am packaging this as it is needed as a dependency for Google Web Toolkit. It is based on the existing package in Ubuntu by Alexandre Rossi. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
