Jaroslav Tulach resolved NETBEANS-4222.
---------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 12.0
Resolution: Won't Fix
I guess I scared the reporter enough... Sorry for that, I hope you will not
give up on NetBeans, Markus.
> Open up more of APIs in Node and PropertySheet
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NETBEANS-4222
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-4222
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: platform - Explorer, platform - Nodes
> Reporter: Markus Sunela
> Assignee: Jaroslav Tulach
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 12.0
>
>
> Currently it is hard to customize Node, Explorer and PropertySheet behavior,
> because there are too many private instead of protected methods, package
> private and final classes in the API.
> Some examples I have stumbled on include
> * private doSetNodes method in PropertySheet (no way to override the use of
> ProxyNodes)
> * final and package private ProxyNode class
> * package private constructor in ProxyNode
> * package private getOriginalNodes method in ProxyNode
> * package private and final {color:#000000}ProxyProperty{color} class in
> ProxyNode
> * final Sheet class and its inner class Sheet.Set
> * most private methods in Sheet and Sheet.Set should be protected instead
> * PropertySupport.Reflection class should have getters for read and write
> methods
> I wonder, what is the rationale for so strict and static API design? I would
> assume the performance gains from these limitations are meager. Opening these
> classes for sub-classing and modifications would result in much more flexible
> system with much less code duplication.
