Re: [Cppcms-users] razor like syntax for templates

[Lee E. <lee...@gm...>]

Thanks Artyom,

Marcel when you say razor like template system - are you talking about
building the templates differently - so that the end result CPP will be
compatible with the skin system, but that templates needs to be
restructured to the new system?
or do you see the same existing <% ... %> code structure converted to
something more readable like the @ prefix?

If you think about the first - i suggest do it from scratch, and generate
cpp (and perhaps h files) from the template file independently of the
cppcms_tmpl_cc - also adopt some limitation on the generated cpp code that
will make your life easier (like each file have only one implicit template
in it - or that @section "name"{ ... } will define another template, but
have it follow a predefined signature), and i would also adopt a separate
extension like cpphtml to follow the razor convention for c# and vb

if you think on the second approach - it will be much faster, i would base
it on the existing cppcms_tmpl_cc script, but the end result will not feel
razor IMO since you will not be able to use C++ language constructs freely
inside the page

i do not have the time to pick up this project on my own right now - but if
you say what direction you are going, i'll try and help
