I have the following code:
@(data: model.FrontPageData, list:List[model.FrontPageData])(
implicit
params:play.mvc.Scope.Params,
flash:play.mvc.Scope.Flash,
errors:Map[String,play.data.validation.Error]
)
@import controllers._
<html>
<head>
<title>some title</title>
</head>
<body>
....
And Play Framework returns this error:
The file /app/views/Application/frontPageEditor.scala.html could not be compiled. Error raised is : illegal start of simple expression
on line @↓import controllers._
You can't use import
statements from a template in the middle of the code, it's a limitation in Play templates. You must put them at the beginning of the template, as per documentation.
You can use fully qualified names though. In you case, if you have controller XController, do:
controllers.XController.method()
to access it
