Hi guys,
In our shop we use only around 10 common templates for the majority
of our work and the current procees is to copy a current WOComponent
and update it to work with the object we need with minor changes. I
was going through the plugins source for the wizard and found the
following comment in 'WOComponentCreator.java' and it gave me hope
that we could better adapt our templating a bit if this feature was
there.
' // TODO: select template in the user interface
componentEngine.setSelectedTemplateName(componentEngine.names()[0]);
'
So in a way it is a feature request but I am willing to try to take a
shot at updateing this myself if I could get a little direction on
what/where I need to look, it would take a bit though as I am just
starting to really dig into Eclipse Plugins and the WOLips code. It
seems like some of the wocomponent.vm strings are currently hard coded
what was the orginal thinking regarding that TODO? Was it that the
template engine would read the template.xml for the different
components and then look for a directory with files named along the
lines of "wocomponent.wod.vm". Or if there were to be a woComponent
select should the name it looks for in the wocomponent folder be of
the type "selectedTemplate.wod.vm"?
thx again guys for all your hard work,
~jake
