s:decorate - default template

[kragoth]

Hi all,

I'm not liking the fact that I have to write code like...

<s:decorate template="/path/to/template.xhtml">
 <h:inputText ...../>
</s:decorate>

all the time for every input component.

Does anyone know any possible way of setting the default template that will be used by the s:decorate tag?

If not, how hard would it be to create my own tag so that I can do this?

<mytag:validate>
 <h:inputText ..../>
</mytag:validate>

And this would basically just put the <s:decorate template="...."> in for me.


Any ideas or help is greatly appreciated.


In fact it would be totally awesome if we had some sort of <s:decorateAll> tag but... could be difficult I'm guessing.

No, but open a feature request and we can perhaps look at doing it. You can always define the template using a factory in components.xml and reference it

<s:decorate template="#{defaultDecorateTemplate}">
 ...

Thanks pete.

I'm not sure what you mean by a factory in components.xml but I'll try and see if I can find some doco about that.

I really appreciate all the help you guys give.


I have submitted the feature request. I'm not sure of the details I should give it but it's there.
