Paul,
Interesting note you make there. Maybe Tacos should
indeed come with the different versions of the dojo toolkit and
load only the applicable version at run time. This should involve building some
kind of dependancy systems, but as Tacos is now really centering around dojo
we'll probable see the question popping up more often.
I think that this would really be a cool feature
for beta 1. It would at the very least remove one of main arguments
against Tacos, which is the massive _javascript_ loading and
downloading. Just my $0.02.
Kind regards,
Dennis Fleurbaaij

Subject: Re: [Tacos-devel] Any
alternatives to the bloated kitchen sink dojo?
Maybe I didn't make it sufficiently clear, but I *did* try one of their
prebuilt packages -- the "ajax" distribution -- and it didn't work.
The issue seems to be that the tacos components require a bunch of dojo
packages like dojo.fx.html and dojo.widgets, even if I'm not actually doing
any effects.
Is there a way to manage or disable these dependencies...?
Cheers,
Paul

You'll have to probably checkout dojo from
subversion, or try one of their pre-built packages. It's not very hard to
do, but does require a little bit of intellectual investment. (Mainly just
passing the right command-line arguments to their ant build script, it's
pretty easy if you look at the ant build file or help options).
I
haven't sat down and made a tacos only dojo build yet, but I hope to soon.
Dojo has plenty of documentation on this in their wiki already I think
though. http://dojo.jot.com

is massive. It slows down page load/rendering time, and drastically

I'm using AjaxDirectLink and
AjaxForm. That's it. I don't need (or want) any visual effects, much
less the fancy client-side word processor and self-cleaning toaster
oven functionality that comes with Dojo. I mean, it's all impressive,
but I don't need it. Just Ajax.
The Tacos docs imply that I may be
able to use a lighterweight distribution of Dojo, or even another
library altogether through Hivemind config. However, the docs don't
explain how to do this. Just dropping in the "Ajax" distribution of
dojo doesn't work....
Anybody tried this? Any hope for keeping my
app lean and
mean?
