You would use lift core if you wanted to include all this jars in your project. It in itself does not do anything and it's just a pom module. Does that help? Cheers, Tim Sent from my iPhone On 10 May 2009, at 07:49, Charles F. Munat c...@munat.com wrote: What exactly is Lift-Core. When I

I think you'll find it's called that because it's a part of a pattern. If you google loan pattern you'll get a scala wiki answer that should help you :-) Cheers, Tim Sent from my iPhone On 10 May 2009, at 07:59, Charles F. Munat c...@munat.com wrote: Why is it called LoanWrapper?

Hi, I would like to use ProtoUser in my unit test so that I could set it's id's value. One way to do this is that I would create a mock object of the ProtoUser and then define what the id returns. However, I would rather like to use just the real class as it is. Is there a possibility to give

A long time ago, I insisted that Lift was everything that we had in all the Lift packages. When DavidB split Lift into different packages, he called the whole thing that includes all Lift packages Lift Core. It would probably be better named Lift Bloat (this is a joke), but it is what it is. On

fyi. if you smash css into a single file but continue using relative urls in the css you'll end up with a slower page in the case that you're using asset hosts to work around the browsers http connection limit. when smashing into one file make sure to also apply the asset host trick to any url()

Yeah google analytics is a good use case. I think talking about smashing static files is off topic, but there is some value in having a tail merge for when you want to put stuff in just before the body tag. My only thinking right now is that why do we need a specific snippet to do this? Right

Been thinking about this more, just trying to explore where this idea leads: - Where tail merge would really shine is that a snippet could be embedded inside a div tag, for example, but still have a tail pushed to the end of the page body. - Script entries in the head and tail blocks could be
