[Chameleon] Widget Dependency

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Abe,

did you set the minimum maturity level of your application properly in the index.phtml?

$oApp->mnMinimumMaturityLevel = MATURITY_ALPHA; 

Otherwise the JSAPI widget never loads.

Best regards,
Bart

Yeah, this is the way I was trying to do it before (saw it in other
widgets).  Not only was I hoping for a more formal approach to
dependencies, but this doesn't seem to work anyhow.  The
isset($this->maSharedResourceWidgets["CWCJSAPI"]) test always comes
back false.  It doesn't matter if the cwcjsapi widget is or isn't
included, nor does it matter where in the template it's included
(above or below the depending widget).

Thanks.
