I have read all the wiki's and smalltalks regarding how to use folder based themes but I cannot get my themes to register or work.
I not only created my own theme using the ztx.bat script but also downloaded the dark demo theme from it's smalltalk project.
I will show my code below, I am trying this with 7.0 EE eval.
My application Root is WebRoot where META-INF and WEB-INF are, I put the theme folder on the same level :
Tags
People
Badges
Help
WebRoot
-> META-INF
-> WEB-INF
-> theme
->OneViewDefaultTheme
->dark
In my zk.xml (full file below)
<library-property>
<name>org.zkoss.theme.preferred</name>
<value>OneViewDefaultTheme</value>
</library-property>
I added the required dsp elements to web.xml (full file below) and in my WebAppInitListener I added the following code :
Themes.register("dark", ThemeOrigin.FOLDER);
Themes.register("OneViewDefaultTheme", ThemeOrigin.FOLDER);
In my home page, in the doAfterCompose I run the following to see what themes are registered :
System.out.println("Current Theme = " + Themes.getCurrentTheme());
String[] themes = Themes.getThemes();
for (int i=0;i<themes.length;i++)
System.out.println("Theme[" + i + "] = " + themes[i]);
This is what I get for output :
16:06:48,405 INFO [stdout] (ajp-dhl06-127.0.0.1-8009-1) Current Theme = breeze
16:06:48,424 INFO [stdout] (ajp-dhl06-127.0.0.1-8009-1) Theme[0] = silvertail
16:06:48,425 INFO [stdout] (ajp-dhl06-127.0.0.1-8009-1) Theme[1] = breeze
16:06:48,426 INFO [stdout] (ajp-dhl06-127.0.0.1-8009-1) Theme[2] = sapphire
I have no idea why I cannot get them to register, been trying all day, going over smalltalks and questions, it appears I am doing what I am supposed to do but it's not working.

Hi,
thanks for all the details... I hope I didn't miss the anything - I just could not see your WebAppInitListener being registered anywhere in zk.xml as described here (3rd paragraph).
maybe also put a log statement into it to see it actually executes and the themes become available.
Regards,
Robert
The WebAppInitListener is being called as I have a break in there, but your right, the listener is not defined in that zk.xml - very strange. We are deploying several applications to jboss at once, I will talk with the packaging person tomorrow. Maybe I need to move the themes to one of the other applications instead - seems strange to me but would explain why it's not working.
Do you see anything else I may be doing wrong?
Thanks! Andy
It seems strange, that the listener is called, but if it is as you say can you check it is actually registering it for the same WebApp instance? e.g.output the same log statements, as you do in "doAfterCompose" and log the WebApp instance or the context name at the same time.
cor3000 ( 2013-11-14 03:08:35 +0800 )editThanks so much for your help. I ended up getting the themes to register and show up, but I had to move where I was registering them from the WebAppInitListener to my home page doAfterCompose. That is not where I will leave the registration but they registered correctly and switched to the one I wanted - so it's huge progress.
The other issue I had was in my packaging.xml file - the include name="*" was preventing the contents of the theme directories from being packaged. So in the deployed .war file the directory names were there but no contents. So it looks like I am moving forward!
<zipfileset dir="WebRoot/theme" prefix="theme">
<include name="*" />
</zipfileset>
yes when it is an ant build file... it should be **/* to recursively pick up all subfolders and their content.
