You can install from within Eclipse via the NEW update site at: http://tapestrypalette.sf.net/update   ]]> Tue, 15 Nov 2005 20:30:32 -0800 http://tapestrypalette.mjhenderson.com/C868201159/E20051115203032/index.html http://tapestrypalette.mjhenderson.com/C868201159/E1533907018/index.html This new release is required after upgrading Spindle to 3.1.21, without this update you will be left with a non-functioning palette view.

Would you like to help? ]]> Tue, 29 Mar 2005 09:24:24 -0800 http://tapestrypalette.mjhenderson.com/C868201159/E975054546/index.html http://tapestrypalette.mjhenderson.com/C868201159/E409355006/index.html An updated version of the Tapestry Palette plugin adds support for Anonymous Implicit components, these are components declared in the template only with a jwcid value that consists only of the component name prefixed with an @ sign, e.g. @Insert.

The update also includes the ability to customize the default OGNL expression inserted for required component parameters during drag and drop editing.

The preferences options are documented on the SF project web site here .

The update can be installed from with Eclipse via the update site at: http://tapestrypalette.mjhenderson.com/unstable ]]> Tue, 29 Mar 2005 09:20:02 -0800 http://tapestrypalette.mjhenderson.com/C868201159/E409355006/index.html http://tapestrypalette.mjhenderson.com/C868201159/E2036400194/index.html The latest unstable version (0.1.8) of the Tapestry Palette now supports Component library dependencies. The library supplier can declare a list of dependent library jar files for a component library. When the component library is dragged from the palette onto the application specification editor the component library and it's dependencies are all downloaded to the WEB-INF/lib folder and added to the project build path.

The latest version can be downloaded from within Eclipse from the update site at:

It looks like MindBridge has implemented Ajax functionality for Tapestry and posted it on t-deli.com .

A new version of the palette, version 0.1.8, can be downloaded from the unstable update site at:

http://tapestrypalette.mjhenderson.com/unstable

This version adds the XTile component library to the Repositories folder so you can install the library by dragging it from the palette tree and dropping it onto your application specification. The library will be downloaded to WEB-INF/lib and added to the project build path and the specification file edited to include the library declaration. You can start using the XTile component as soon as the drop operation is complete.

Spindle is in there as well. Thanks to all those who rated the palette. I'm looking forward to the first third-party libraries coming on line on the palette soon. ]]> Mon, 21 Mar 2005 15:17:59 -0800 http://tapestrypalette.mjhenderson.com/C868201159/E1866019519/index.html
