Martin Grigorov commented on WICKET-4535: ----------------------------------------- The CssProvider deals with the value of the CSS class, so it could be only a String, I think. I'll try your quickstart to see why it fails with ClassCastException. > Inconsistent use of generics in sorting APIs > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: WICKET-4535 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-4535 > Project: Wicket > Issue Type: Bug > Components: wicket-extensions > Affects Versions: 6.0.0-beta1 > Reporter: Jesse Long > Assignee: Martin Grigorov > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 6.0.0-beta2 > > Attachments: WICKET-4535-1.patch, WICKET-4535-2.patch, > WICKET-4535-3.patch, WICKET-4535-4.patch, WICKET-4535-5.patch, myproject.zip > > > The Sort APIs use very generics inconsistently. Classes like > SortableDataProvider, ISortState, SortParam etc do not all uniformly cater > for sort properties other than string. There is a lot of unchecked casting, > which is not really required, if generics were used across the board. > Fixing this will probably cause API changes for 6. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
