Martin Grigorov resolved WICKET-5692.
-------------------------------------
Resolution: Incomplete
Please provide a patch and we will reopen the ticket.
I cannot see the whole picture from your description.
Additionally org.apache.wicket.model.AbstractPropertyModel#propertyExpression()
has 'protected' visibility. I believe this issue is not a good enough reason to
make it 'public'.
> Misleading message in PropertyValidator
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: WICKET-5692
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-5692
> Project: Wicket
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Thibault Kruse
> Priority: Minor
>
> in org.apache.wicket.bean.validation.PropertyValidator.java:
> {code}
> if (property_ == null)
> {
> throw new IllegalStateException(
> "Could not resolve Property from
> component: " +
> component +
> ". Either specify the Property
> in the constructor or use a model that works in combination with a " +
>
> IPropertyResolver.class.getSimpleName() +
> " to resolve the Property
> automatically");
> }
> {code}
> The error message is misleading, as other causes might lead to a result of
> null. As PropertyResolvers can be of any type, the message should not assume
> any given cause, but may hint at common errors.
> In particular in my case when Using a bean Foo having a field bar of Type
> Bar, and a Model on an instance foo of Foo having null for field bar.
> Instead, it would be nice if the Error Message made an attempt to cast the
> component model to AbstractPropertyModel and print the propertyExpression, as
> well as the type of the modelObject, but without failure if the cast is not
> possible, and reporting the modelObject is null if so.
