Widget templates containing widget declarations not rendered correctly

[egor.margineanu@…]

Widget template containing widget declaration of the same type (but with different template) not rendered due to too much recursion error.

[egor.margineanu@…]

This is template code for widget X. Depends on frameset attribute value:

Widget X template (frameset="test"):

<div style="height:100%;width:100%;">
   <div dojoType="egmar:Splitcontainer" orientation="horizontal" sizerWidth="2" activeSizing="1" style="height:100%;width:100%;margin:0;padding:0;">
      <div dojoType="ContentPane" widgetId="" sizeShare="49" sizeType="%">
         <div dojoType="egmar:Frameset" frameset="lt"></div>
      </div>
      <div dojoType="ContentPane" widgetId="" sizeShare="51" sizeType="%">
         <div dojoType="egmar:Frameset" frameset="lt"></div>
      </div>
   </div>
</div>

Widget X template (frameset="lt"):

<div style="height:100%;width:100%;">
   <div dojoType="egmar:Splitcontainer" orientation="horizontal" sizerWidth="2" activeSizing="1" style="height:100%;width:100%;margin:0;padding:0;">
      <div dojoType="ContentPane" widgetId="" sizeShare="20" sizeType="%"></div>
      <div dojoType="ContentPane" widgetId="" sizeShare="80" sizeType="%">
         <div dojoType="egmar:Frameset" frameset="ts"></div>
      </div>
   </div>
</div>

Widget X template (frameset="ts"):

<div style="height:100%;width:100%;">
   <div dojoType="egmar:Splitcontainer" orientation="vertical" sizerWidth="2" activeSizing="1" style="height:100%;width:100%;margin:0;padding:0;">
      <div dojoType="ContentPane" widgetId="" sizeShare="20" sizeType="%"></div>
      <div dojoType="ContentPane" widgetId="" sizeShare="80" sizeType="%"></div>
   </div>
</div>

one widget can only have one template

if you want different templates, than make more than one widgets.

close this as invalid

[egor.margineanu@…]

If we talk in terms of widgets powered by templates your point of view is wrong. Widget templates can be generated on server side depending on multiple factors. And from point of view of developer your point of view is wrong. I'm not crazy to have 5-6 widgets with the same code but different name. Seems you don't understand complexity of managing code changes in this case.

I can not come up with a workaround for this

feel free to contribute patch

[liucougar]

and I don't really see why you can't make them different widgets (rather than sharing the same name)

[egor.margineanu@…]

Because I don't know how many levels i'll have. may be 2 or may be 10. all I know is that there is no recursion.

[liucougar]

this is definitely not Editor related ;)

You can always make multiple widget definitions with different templates but sharing the same code (this is what javascript prototypes are for), and in Dijit 0.9 we will have mechanisms like the WidgetDefinition? widget that make this really simple.
