Hello Ulrich, thanks for the quick response! I would like to use a component template but this is one of the few cases where this is afaik impossible due to the need for recursion in the rendering.
Thanks for the pointer on how I can proceed! Kind Regards, Wulf -----Original Message----- From: Ulrich Stärk [mailto:u...@spielviel.de] Sent: Mittwoch, 5.

What you want to do is to mimick some of Tapestry's internals that are abstracted away for a reason. Now would be the time to start using a component template. (If you really really have to do this which I strongly discourage, you would probably need to cast the Block to it's implementation, a BlockImpl, instantiate a RenderQueueImpl, call BlockImpl's render() method to push the child elements to the queue and afterwards call the RenderQueueImpl's run method. No guarantees though.)
