Re: Simpler Hello World

[Chris Mylonas]

For future noobs, this is not a simpler hello world, it's making tapestry
respond with text only, no template, nothing but pure text.

I had to do this today and this thread caught my eye last month.

In the standard tapestry 5.3.7 archetype, my Contact.java looks like this.


package org.example.pages;

import org.apache.tapestry5.StreamResponse;
import org.apache.tapestry5.util.TextStreamResponse;

public class Contact {

    StreamResponse onActivate(){
        return new TextStreamResponse("text/plain","some plain old text -
no .tml file, no nothing. plain old text - yay!");
    }
}

I wouldn't describe it as a simpler hello world at all because you're
making tapestry end it's goodness prematurely.  Like learning how to write
a program and the first statement in main() you learn is exit(1);
