I have a template file1.tt that I would like to INCLUDE in a higher level template. But I would like to override the default values. Looks like overriding boolean values which have a default of 1 does not work correctly. I tried this in two ways: by using another 'calling' template and also by using a hash to define these values and passing that to the template, neither of which gave the result I desired. Below are the examples and outputs.
[%# ---------- file1.tt ----------%]
[% DEFAULT
MY_BOOL_D0 = 0,
MY_BOOL_D1 = 1,
MY_INT_D10 = 10 %]
Print Values:
MY_BOOL_D0 = $MY_BOOL_D0
MY_BOOL_D1 = $MY_BOOL_D1
MY_BOOL_D10 = $MY_BOOL_D10
[%# ---- End of file1.tt --------- %]
If I run this template by itself , then I get the following lines
MY_BOOL_D0 = 0
MY_BOOL_D1 = 1
MY_INT_D10 = 10
I would like to override these values from a higher level template:
[% INCLUDE file1.tt MY_BOOL_D0 = 1
MY_BOOL_D1 = 0
MY_INT_D10 = 20 %]
If I run this Interestingly, I get
MY_BOOL_D0 = 1
MY_BOOL_D1 = 1
MY_INT_D10 = 20
i.e the boolean values that had a default of 1 could not be overridden from the calling template. All other values/types were overridable. Any ideas?
Thanks
