Well, you could bind a hidden attribute to a backing bean and set the local of
the view root there by way of the facesContext. Or, you might be able to set
the local of the view root in the shale view controller's prerender callback.
However, I agree that this is something missing in Clay. JSF 1.2 adds a couple
important attributes to the view root that we will want to support besides the
locale.
renderKitId, beforePhaseListener, afterPhaseListener
Clay has a couple comment directives:
<!-- ### clay:page charset="UTF-8" /### -->
<!-- ### clay:remove ### -->
<!-- ### /clay:remove ### -->
What if we added another for the view root?
<!-- ### clay:view locale="en_US" beforePhaseListener="@[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
/### -->
However, if we made it a base component definition, we could take advantage of
the metadata inheritance.
<component jsfid="f:view" componentType="javax.faces.ViewRoot">
<attributes>
<set name="locale" bindingType="VB"/>
<set name="renderKitId" bindingType="VB"/>
<set name="beforePhaseListener" bindingType="MB"/>
<set name="afterPhaseListener" bindingType="MB"/>
<set name="afterPhaseListener" bindingType="MB"/>
<attributres>
</component>
<component jsfid="page1" extends="f:view">
<attributes>
<set name="locale" value="en_US"/>
</attributes>
</component>
And, then use it in HTML.
<span jsfid="page1"/>
Or, we could do something like this:
<!-- ### clay:view jsfid="page1" /### -->
What do you think?
