TPL issue

Hi

I have a 500 lines of code which has to be used by all my tpls.(Dummy tpl file attached in the post). I want to put it in a sigle file. Please tell me what methodolgy I should use for this.

I want this reusable part to be put into a single file ,could be text file or anything, so that it can be used by other tpls as well .Because I have used things like iwpt_dcr_value etc , I cant have it in a PM. Any suggestions on that? Can I use tag or some thing like whichis used in DCTs ?

Thanks in advance

You certainly can use PM.

To do that you would have to rework your code slightly to use TeamSite: Smiley Very Happy

CRnode::value and TeamSite: Smiley Very Happy

CRnode::get_node_list
in place of iwpt_dcr_value/iwpt_dcr_list and pass root DCR Node as a parameter from your PT.

You might also wanna take a look at <iw_include pt="PathToYourTpl" mode="cwd"> tag.

That will never work in wild123 case.

If you take a look at his attachment you will realize that he's coding his template entirely in Perl, within single iw_perl Tag.
You can not nest IWOV Tags within it, iw_include or any other

Hey

Because of some environment related issue I cant use DCRnode. I have another idea . Why dont I use

$com="$iwhome/iw-perl/bin/iwperl $iwhome/bin/iwpt_compile.ipl -pt \"$PTpath\" -iw_pt-dcr \"$DCRpath\" 2>&1";

$result = `$com` ;

in all my TPLs and run the $PTpath tpl (which has the common 500 line tpl code) for all the $DCRpath dcrs.

I guess this should work well. Any issues on this ?Please suggest...

Hey - why don't you figure out the reason for this instead of just sweeping it under the rug?

Why dont I use

$com="$iwhome/iw-perl/bin/iwperl $iwhome/bin/iwpt_compile.ipl -pt \"$PTpath\" -iw_pt-dcr \"$DCRpath\" 2>&1";

$result = `$com` ;

in all my TPLs and run the $PTpath tpl (which has the common 500 line tpl code) for all the $DCRpath dcrs.

Well - if you want to use the exact same PT code for all your different data-types you could do that - or you could potentially list the value of

$PTpath

in templating.cfg for each data-type - I've seen entries like:

<category name="cat_name"> 
  <!-- ... -->
  <data-type name="dt_name" dcr-type="xml"> 
    <presentation> 
      <template name="../../common/presentation/pt_name.tpl" extension="html"> 
        <!-- ... -->
      </template> 
    </presentation> 
  </data-type>
  <!-- ... -->
</category>

with some success - or the PT is in it's "normal" place but consists of something like:

<iw_include pt="../../common/pt_name.tpl"
            mode="ptlocal"/>

<iw_include pt="../../common/pt_name.tpl"
            mode="ptlocal"
            dtype_param="dt_name"/>

where the "common" PT can use the value of

$iw_arg{dtype}

for conditional testing to have data-type-specific code within the common PT.

Hey... You can probably make it work this way but frankly - it'**** and run Development.

Be a good guy and code modular PM Library that people working on the Project after you
would be ably to modify without undue hassle
