Thorsten Scherler commented on FOR-800:
---------------------------------------

Hmm, I do not understand.

I am looking for all aviable properties. I read something about default.forrest.properties.xml, ... but which can I request ( I do not know with which I need to substitute the *)

To pass all this props in the sitemap is not efficient, that is the biggest problem of input modules in general (you cannot use them directly in xsl). 

We can not decide which properties a contract will need and further it is not easy to extend because you need to touch the sitemap. A contract should be able to request any given prop from *.properties.xml.

Please see the master.ft:
...
<!-- If you need default variables: -->
      <!--<xsl:param name="defaultVariables" select="'test.html'"/>-->
      <!-- then extract the variable like: -->
      <!--<xsl:variable name="skin-img-dir" select="$defaultVariables/*/*[@name='skin-img-dir']/@value"/>-->
      <!-- more information which variables are aviable can be found at lm://transform.xml.variable.helper 
        
          FIXME: This property xsl is in early stage and aims to be connected to the new established input module based one.
          We need to write a custom generator for this. The generator will contact the prop-input module to get all aviable key/values and
          outputs them to xml (dtd like forrest.properties.xml). -->
