Hi all,
I'm just trying to work out if this is possible and how it would be done:
The problem:
------------
Currently, we're using FileResourceLoader to retrieve templates from the
filesystem in the normal. I'm in the process of putting together a slightly
customized version of this to resolve ambiguous requests (e.g. if templateName
== null or length == 0, use look for a welcome file as configured in web.xml)
... we need to do this because the way we're running velocity is through a
servlet which takes the template path as a request attribute, parameter or path
info.
However, this means that it becomes impossible to #include or #parse a file
without referencing it using the full path (i.e.
#parse("anotherFileInThisFolder.vm") fails)
What I would like to do is, if we get a request like this, to add a test which
discovers the path from _where_ the call was made and then normalizes it based
on that information.
Possible?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
p.s. congratulations on going TLP! :D
