Bring back the Any and Image components for more previewable templates
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TAPESTRY-1733
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-1733
Project: Tapestry
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 5.0.5
Reporter: Nick Westgate
Priority: Minor
The Any and Image components were removed despite the fact that expansions are
not a complete replacement.
Some examples where Any or Image are necessary or superior:
<!-- a static class for preview; a dynamic class at runtime -->
<span t:type="Any" t:class="prop:someMethodToGetTheClass"
class="previewDisplayClass">${message:someText}</span>
<!-- using a mixin -->
<div t:type="Any" t:mixins="myLayout">My layout</div>
<!-- previewable image that is still an asset (localized etc) at runtime -->
<img t:type="Image" src="images/other/header.gif" alt="informals rendered"
border="0"/>
In addition, by adding another blade to Any's swiss army knife even more
previewable templates can be achieved:
<!-- demo body for preview; dynamic body at runtime -->
<h3 t:type="Any" t:body="item.itemName" class="itemClass">Example Item</h3>
The tag body is replaced by the contents of the body parameter.
(I've also suggested this as a solution to TAPESTRY-1642.)
Cheers,
Nick.
