hmm, how about using the tapx TemplateAPI and TemplateRenderer within a
tapestry app?
I don't need to do anything fancy like Page rendering, and infact am
just using a Page instance as useful hook for ajax methods.
>From this method I just want to return some html rendered with tml,
using tap's templating & expression language.
I've used tapx TemplateRenderer before with success, for sending HTML
emails. Was hoping to do something similar now, although having tried it
I get the following error:
TemplateAPI templateAPI = new TemplateAPI("mypackage.web", new
File("/web/components"));
TemplateRenderer renderer = templateAPI.createRenderer("Tiles", "en",
"default");
RenderedStream renderedStream = renderer.render();
throws:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Location 'default' is not
defined. Defined location names: (none).
Any clues as to how to fix that error?
