Description

Use to configure a global setting or set a default for a function.

Examples

// 1. Set the `URLRewriting` global setting to `Partial`.
set(URLRewriting="Partial");

// 2. Set default argument values for the `buttonTo` view helper.
// This pattern works for most Wheels helper functions and their arguments.
set(functionName="buttonTo", onlyPath=true, host="", protocol="", port=0, text="", confirm="", image="", disable="");

// 3. Set default values for the `textField` form helper to control label placement and wrapping markup.
set(functionName="textField", labelPlacement="before", prependToLabel="<div>", append="</div>", appendToLabel="<br>");

// 4. Apply the same defaults to multiple helper functions at once by passing a comma-delimited list to `functionName`.
set(functionName="textField,passwordField,textArea", labelPlacement="before");
