Hi there.
Does anybody know where to find good examples on annotations in T 4.0.
This new feature looks so attractive to me. I just wish I could simply
get rid of .page files and mantain code of my page only in two files
.java and .html. But it would be great if I could look at a few good
examples before I start rewriting my current app.
Thanks
I have been workign with a brand new sandbox app so I can test out the
new 4.0 functionality before I migrate my applications, you may want to
do this in case there is a bug in the first beta and you don't get
frustrated. In terms of annotations, I've found they are best
documented new feature, take a look at
http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry/tapestry-annotations/index.html. I
have been playing around with nnotations and they are pretty solid,
although I have found a couple of issues. FYI--I can't create a
component without a .jwc because of a bug.
Here is how to have a page without a .page file
1. Setup your .application file to have a page search path, below is my
file
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE application PUBLIC
"-//Apache Software Foundation//Tapestry Specification 4.0//EN"
"http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry/dtd/Tapestry_4_0.dtd";>
<application name="Tapestry Component Workbench">
<meta key="org.apache.tapestry.template-encoding" value="ISO-8859-1"/>
<meta key="org.apache.tapestry.page-class-packages"
value="com.scottwalter.sandbox.tapestry4.pages"/>
<meta key="org.apache.tapestry.component-class-packages"
value="com.scottwalter.sandbox.tapestry4.components"/>
<library id="contrib"
specification-path="/org/apache/tapestry/contrib/Contrib.library"/>
</application>
2. If you want to have a page called "Home", create a java class file
named "Home.java" in one of the packages sepcified by
"org.apache.tapestry.page-class-packages" in step 1.
3. Create an html page called "Home.html"
4. Success!!!
