    Shared Resources and Templates Across War/Ear Deployments

    kmsmgill

      I am relatively new to Seam and am looking to start using it as our base application framework. What I am looking to do is have multiple web apps, each with their own war or ear deployment due to differing development schedules, requirements, etc, but all supported and (hopefully) integrated by a core application. The problem I am having is that I would like to have common page templates and such across these deployments so as to maintain a consistent look and feel.

      I have thought of two methods, neither of which work :)
      1. The core application acts as a proxy to the individual apps, embedding their content within the body space of the template facelet.
      2. The individual tools access the template from the core and render it themselves.

      Ultimately, the goal is to have multiple tools that can be (un)deployed without affecting the others each with a common look & feel.

      Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated as I am hoping to present this as our main web toolset, and already have some projects lined up to utilize it.

      Thank You,
      Kevin
