Wt

Or maybe an abstract class for WTemplate?

Just a little more information.

The purpose of this feature request is to minimize memory overhead by storing all rules and templates in backend database tables(I'm using different tables for templates and rules). Instead of loading the selector/declarations strings for each rule in every session, I'm using a derived class called DboCssRule which stores a Dbo::ptr to that rule so the strings can be shared between sessions.

For minimizing template/language strings, I don't know how Wt's tr() function stores the strings so I can't suggest a solution for weather modifying tr() or WTemplate. Maybe there should be a way we can manage how tr() stores the strings. I want to store the strings using Dbo::ptr to share the strings between sessions.

Hey Saif,

WString::tr() does not actually store the value --- the value itself is always requested from WLocalizedStrings which you can reimplement to cope with different trade-offs.
