Hi all,
I just committed an implementation of the CForms template language as JX
macros. There already was some prototype version of this (written by
Chris Oliver) which wasn't complete. This new version implements the
full template language, including class, union, etc.
To use it, just add the following in your template (which should of
course be processed by the JXTemplateGenerator):
<jx:import
uri="resource://org/apache/cocoon/forms/generation/jx-macros.xml"/>
You can then remove the forms transformer from you pipeline and use the
additional JX variables provided by these macros:
- within a <ft:form-template>, the "form" variables points to the...
form (eh!)
- within any <ft:*> element, the "widget" variable is the current widget
idendified by the template element.
- within a <ft:repeater>, "widget" is the current row, "repeater" the
enclosing repeater and "repeaterLoop" as JX status iterator (see
jx:forEach) for the row loop.
I updated the "form1_template.xml" example (see the "contacts" repeater)
to showcase some of the nice things it allows. More will come soon as
I'm currently preparing my GT talk that will explain this in more details.
Lovely!
Is there any noticable performance impact comparing to a transformer?
