It always troubled me when I need to extend an
existing component, because I have to copy all the
spec from the parent component. Not an OO way. And
when I need my pages to have some properties or
injected services in common, I have to duplicate the
page spec again. Not good either.
Thanks to hivemind, we can extend/replace the engine
when we need. I have an implementation for the feature
I need. All you have to do is to declear a property in
your specification, for example,
<property name="_inheritance"
initial-value="contrib:Table" />
where the property name is always "_inheritance", and
the initial-value is the parent name. For page
inheritance, the parent can be a page specification
only, you do not need to define the corresponding
template.
