Bitrix Framework

Enhanced template buffering methods permit not to use EndViewTarget() any longer because the end of a template automatically terminates buffering.

Now, there is a standard caching support in components.

• template.php:

  <?$this->SetViewTarget("sidebar");?>
  
  	<div class="element-filter">
  		<!--filter display -->
  	</div>
  
  <?$this->EndViewTarget();?>
  
  <div class="element-list">
  	<!--list display -->
  </div>

• header.php:

  <div id="sidebar">
  	<?$APPLICATION->ShowViewContent("sidebar")?>
  </div>

Methods available in a template (through &this)

• CBitrixComponentTemplate::SetViewTarget($view, $pos)
• CBitrixComponentTemplate::EndViewTarget()

$APPLICATION global object methods

• Cmain::AddViewContent($view, $content, $pos)
• Cmain::ShowViewContent($view)

where:

$view is the buffered area identifier;

$content is the buffered content;

$pos is the sorting of the displayed contents.
