Well.....You "can" go that route if you want to, or you can do it the way that the new Autocomplete component does it by implementing the IJSONRender interface:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tapestry/tapestry4/trunk/tapestry-framework/src/java/org/apache/tapestry/dojo/form/Autocompleter.java?view=markup Basically it's another renderComponent() type method, with the difference being that instead of an IMarkupWriter being passed to you you get a special JSON syntax writer instead. The method is also only called on "json" mimetype requests. On 10/17/06, James Carman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Once you get the hang of HiveMind, you'll never look back, man (of course I'm biased because I'm on the HiveMind team). The "Friendly URLs" stuff is just cut/paste into your hivemodule.xml from what I remember. -----Original Message----- From: Patrick Moore [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 17, 2006 2:16 PM To: Tapestry users Subject: Re: [SPAM] Re: Using tapestry as a Servlet Hi Kegan -- You can get the registry from any servlet by : registry = (Registry) this.context.getAttribute("org.apache.tapestry.Registry: "+tapestryServletNam e); I suspect doing the engine service might be the more 'correct' way to go. At the time, I found that hivemind/tapestry documentation in this matter was scattered and not coherent so I went with the easiest route. The explaination for how to get 'friendly' urls I found eye-glazingly confusing to a novice Tap user (myself) and I think that documentation might be a starting point. -Pat On 10/17/06, James Carman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > If you want to just return "stuff" and not HTML from a page/component, then > you can create your own engine service, I would imagine.
