[stringtemplate-interest] Attributes in derived templates.

Mon Apr 23 01:14:29 PDT 2007

Hmm....

I have thought that code below assigns attribute value to template:

StringTemplate stContent = stg.GetInstanceOf("someContent");
stContent.SetAttribute("attr", "Derrived Content");

Maybe ST does not allow set attributes in this way?
