Juergen Donnerstag reassigned WICKET-3673:
------------------------------------------
Assignee: Juergen Donnerstag
> A little heuristic for "Unable to find component" exception
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: WICKET-3673
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-3673
> Project: Wicket
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: wicket-core
> Affects Versions: 1.4.17
> Reporter: Ondra Žižka
> Assignee: Juergen Donnerstag
> Fix For: 1.6.0
>
>
> Sometimes it's easy to get lost in the structure of a page / component.
> This leads to a situation when the component is correctly created in HTML and
> code, but at different level, like
> {code}
> form.add(new Label("foo", ...))
> add(new Label("bar", ...))
> {code}
> instead of
> {code}
> form.add(new Label("foo", ...))
> .add(new Label("bar", ...))
> {code}
> I suggest that the component map could be searched for components with the ID
> which is not found where expected, and if such ID would be found at different
> level, it would advice the user to check whether the structure is ok instead
> of simply stating "not found".
> Since this is the most common cause of that exception (from my experience),
> I think this could save users from loosing time on checking typos etc, when
> they are out of caffeine and start doing mistakes at the end of the day :)
> Thanks for considering.
