Class TemplateBinding

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.tapestry.binding.AbstractBinding
      net.sf.tacos.binding.TemplateBinding

All Implemented Interfaces:

Locatable, org.apache.tapestry.IBinding

public class TemplateBinding
extends org.apache.tapestry.binding.AbstractBinding

An implementation of Tapestry IBinding that provides a binding similar to LiteralBinding with the additional benefit that it can also include variables. The variables should be put into ${} .
Here's an example: <binding name="effects" value="template:some id is ${currNote.id}."/>

The binding can also get its content from resource bundles. It will still go on and process it - looking for variables to substitute.
Example: <binding name="effects" value="template:%message-code"/>
