TemplateAsset (GSF Core 12.0.2 API)

java.lang.Object
- tools.gsf.facade.assetapi.asset.TemplateAsset

```
public class TemplateAsset
extends Object
```
This class provides easy access to AssetData, to be used in rendering code in read-only mode. Is is called TemplateAsset because the intent is that it is to be used in Templates. It has casting accessors for values of the different attribute types. It must be noted that naming conflicts between flex attribute names and meta attribute names are resolved by giving the meta attribute preference.
```
 
 TemplateAsset asset = ...;
 String name = asset.asString("name");
