I did create a library, in which I refer to the pages and jwc files
explicitly. This seems to aid finding the pages and components, but
not the templates. Somehow the search-rule of finding the templates
along with the components and pages in the same directory does not work.
I started out with all in the WEB-INF directory. If you want to put
the .html/.jwc files in the same directory as the .page you can,
Tapestry will find it automatically. Then the .java file can be
anywhere, you just specify it's location in the .jwc. That is the
simplest model. A bit more complicated is to create sub-directories
under the WEB-INF, then you have to tell Tapestry, via the
.application file where to find the components.
A more complicated, but more in line with the Tapestry Model is to
create libraries, like "contrib". I started out with the simple
model and then needed to create libraries. Eventually, I wanted to
create libraries, in order to do that I had to move everything around.
Creating libraries is pretty simple. In the directory/package for
the .java, I put the .html and the .jwc. I put a .library file and
jar it all together. Then I include the .library in the
.application. Then whenever, I want to reference one of my
components, I just prefix it like you would "contrib".

Subject: defining paths for templates
The people in the project I'm in prefer to keep the java-sources and
tapestry files that belong together in one and the same directory
(Home.java together with Home.page en Home.html, for example). This
basically means that all Tapestry-files will be placed outside of
WEB-INF.
Now I finally succeded to get Tapestry to find the jwc and page files.
Alas, tapestry won't load the related templates. I even tried the
trick of using an asset, like this:
<asset name="$template" path="Home.html"/>
But this doesn't work either, as Tapestry complains about not being
able to find the html file on the class path. It also seems
superfluous to me, since tapestry is supposed to find the templates in
the same directory as the page or component files.
If anyone has any pointers, I'll be grateful.
