Hi,
to avoid double efforts in the same area, I just wanted to inform you that I will try to write a new tree processor for 2.2 in the next few days.
Why? There are several reasons:
- Reverting to ECM in 2.2 requires some changes to the tree processor used in 2.1.x anyway
Curious : are these changes those related to the changes on Environment, or are there more?
- Implementing Virtual Sitemap Components
- Implementing Inheritance of Views
I do have some ideas about this and am willing to participate. Where do we start?
- Being Container Independent
Is it really possible? There needs to be some dependency on the container somehow to create and fill it, no?
- Adding a profiling/debugging api
Cool. It would be good for this API not to be limited to the sitemap only, but also be able to include other components such as JXTemplate, XSP, CForms, etc.
So, apart from reverting to ECM, I will start to implement some of the new features we planned for 2.2. Please note that we haven't discussed all points from above in detail but I think it's easier to discuss on an implementation base instead of duing endless discussions.
I will try to reuse as much as possible from both tree processors (2.1 and 2.2). And I hope to come up with a working solution by the end of next week.
With all features? That's quick!
