That's fantastic Daniel, it's great to see the whole summary in one place. One thought is that it might be helpful to split the items under 'API and architecture' and 'Template language' into those intended for a first release and those that are 'nice to haves' that may come later. My

Re: [FM3] Remove BeansWrapper and some of its settings

2017-02-24 Thread David E Jones
These all sound like good changes, and clarify what is really going on. Removing object wrapping IMO is more important than removing the *Template*Model* interfaces. These interfaces don't have the same runtime and GC overhead as object wrapping and they can be nice for type checking to

This is cleaner, more obvious what's going on underneath, but since the DefaultTemplateResolver will be the most commonly used you could just leave the current setting methods as they are and just document that if you set a different TemplateResolver they will be ignored. -David On Wed,

Re: Template Loader Implementation that loads from a database (DataSource)

A simpler TemplateLoader would be helpful. One approach I've used to simplify it is to override all loading by creating an object that extends the freemarker.template.Configuration and override this method: Template getTemplate(final String name, Locale locale, Object

+1 for #3 as well. Modern designs are getting more flat and simplistic (which IMO is great). It seems to be related to people becoming more familiar with standard UI elements so there really is no need for 3D effects and other fancy things (including shadows, etc) that usually end up

It is useful to allow macro overrides, ie replace the macro and don’t throw an exception. As a specific use case: in Moqui for screen/form rendering (translating XML screen/form/etc definitions to HTML, data XML, CSV, XSL-FO, etc) there are macro libraries with around 65 macros for each
