Hi Scott, > So make your own Table component that does the same, but includes your own > TablePages component.
Well, that's a lot of changes for such a trivial thing. Given that component A includes component B includes component C. I only want to change C. It seems that I have to create my own B that includes my own C and then of course I have to modify A to include my new B. If this containment hierarchy is very deep you'll have to change them all - right? > As for feature requests see the JIRA > http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/BrowseProject.jspa?id=10573 Thanks, I created one: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-889 Does every issue get at least attention? I am asking because entering such an issue into mozilla's bugzilla for example is mostly pointless, as entries linger around there for years sometimes... or am I better off trying to build tapestry myself and to change it to my needs? > But I don't necessarily think that the ability to override any component > jibes > with a component-oriented framework necessarily. Component-oriented > frameworks typically emphasise customisation by encapsulation rather than > extension. Yeah, every framework has got its own definition. I personally associate dynamic configuration with component frameworks that's why I am asking here about this.
