Re: cheetah template questoin

[Jose Galvez]

Thanks Thomas for the confirmation.  That's pretty much the conclusion I had come to, but was hopping that I was missing some magic declarative that would do the trick for me, I had written a extension for webware that compiled templates on the fly for me, but the code was pretty messy and I'm not sure how/if  it would work with turbocheetah.  In any event I'll most likely just compile the parents by hand since that seems to work the best anyway

I can't speak specifically in the context of Pylons or Buffet, but with
Cheetah by itself, I know that you do have to compile the parent before you
can inherit from it.  They use a standard python import when using the
extends directive.

Before I started playing around with Pylons, I was working on my own framework
that used Cheetah, and while it was pretty easy to get it automatically
recompiling and using templates, it was non-trivial to automatically compile
a template's parent templates.
