At the moment I have configured my controller.xml like this:
<site-conf xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="

<include

<description>OFBiz: Cloned eCommerce Controller Configuration
File</description>
<!-- Overloaded view-map -->
<view-map name="main" type="screen"
page="component://eshop/widget/CommonScreens.xml#main"/>
<view-map name="category" type="screen"
page="component://eshop/widget/CatalogScreens.xml#category"/>
</site-conf>
and it seems that the <view-map> tag overload does work!
I have not changed the ecommerce controller.xml and the main and category
requests are now served with my local CatalogScreens.xml

Anyway, there goes my two cents:
I think you already have the answer. AFAIK there is no mechanism in OfBiz
to "overload" a request-map/view-map (which you'd need to change the
location of the widget XML file)
If I am not wrong you have two options:
1- Copy over the controller.xml file from ecommerce and make your local
changes.
2- Use a different request name for your modified screen than the
original.

Hi,
as long as I go deeper and deeper in ofbiz I can appreciate the very
good
design of this application.
Now I need to make a my own eshop module and I want to be sure I am
using
all the re-use mechanism you have designed.
- I have created an eshop application under the hot-deploy, here I have
all
my data files using the "ext" reader, with the data file I have defined
my
show, website, facilities, catalogs and categories.
- In my eshop application, I have the controller.xml file that (as seen
in
ecommerce clone example) includes the ecommerce application controller
with
the line
<include
location="component://ecommerce/webapp/ecommerce/WEB-INF/controller.xml"/>
- In my eshop application there is also the images folder with a
modified
copy of the ecommerce.css file and all required gif
Now I need little changes in some of the .ftl files. I want not to
modify
the original files of the ecommerce application so that I can better
follow
the development and update without conflicts.
Is there a mechanism that let me have one or more additional .ftl files
in
my application and all standard .ftl under the original ecommerce?
For example:
I have changed the minilastviewedcategories.ftl. I would like to have a
modified copy of this file in my own application.
I can create a copy in my application but in order to make ofbiz using
it I
need to local copy also all the other files in the chain that are:
CatalogScreens.xml, CommonScreens.xml and the controller.xml
Could anyone make some light for me on this?
