30 | * The Pull Service manages the creation of application | |
31 | * tools that are available to all templates in a | |
32 | * Turbine application. By using the Pull Service you | |
33 | * can avoid having to make Screens to populate a | |
34 | * context for use in a particular template. The Pull | |
35 | * Service creates a set of tools, as specified in | |
36 | * the TR.props file. | |
37 | * | |
38 | * These tools can have global scope, request scope, | |
39 | * authorized or session scope (i.e. stored in user temp hashmap) | |
40 | * or persistent scope (i.e. stored in user perm hashmap) | |
41 | * | |
42 | * The standard way of referencing these global | |
43 | * tools is through the toolbox handle. This handle | |
44 | * is typically $toolbox, but can be specified in the | |
45 | * TR.props file. | |
46 | * | |
47 | * So, for example, if you had a UI Manager tool | |
48 | * which created a set of UI attributes from a | |
49 | * properties file, and one of the properties | |
50 | * was 'bgcolor', then you could access this | |
51 | * UI attribute with $ui.bgcolor. The identifier | |
52 | * that is given to the tool, in this case 'ui', can | |
53 | * be specified as well. | |
