Your solution works, tetting path to "." and passing another path in a
config element works. But I don't think it's a logical solution, since
all binding elements look like <fb:... id="x" path="y"/>, except for
this one, where the path is passed in a config node.
this is a matter of viewpoint I'm afraid
personally I don't find it logical that your property might be null :-)
There is still a (small) problem however, I need a service manager.
yep, got that, that's why I suggested the own binding builder
If I want to straigt for my own binding builder, I have another very
very small change I need. The class
JXPathBindingBuilderBase.CommonAttributes and the method
getCommonAttributes() needs public (or protected) scope. That way I can
create the builder in my own packages.
sure, makes sense!

Subject: Re: [CForms] Change proposal in Custom bindings
I had a quick scan through your problem and patches (and sorry for not
doing that earlier)
AFAICS you would get the same effect by just ommitting the xpath from
the binding and adding it as a nested config
ie not
<fb:custom id="x" path="something"
builderclass="mypack.CustomValueWrapBinding"
factorymethod="createBinding" />
but rather
<fb:custom id="config"
builderclass="mypack.CustomValueWrapBinding"
factorymethod="createBinding" >
<fb:config propspath="some" />
</fb:custom>
that way the path="." will be assumed on the wrapper and the
parent-context will be passed down so your custom binding can narrow
down with the local config 'propspath' (potentially checking for null's
first)
see http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/forms/binding.html#fb%3Acustom
if you need more control then this, I suggest skipping the
custom-binding alltogether and go straight for the own builder and
binding + declaring the builder in the xconf file. (you're not that far
off)
see
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/cocoon/trunk/src/blocks/forms/conf/for
ms-binding.xconf?rev=30945&root=Apache-SVN&view=auto
above seems to indicate that what you need can be done already, pls
comment if that is not the case

Hi all,
A few weeks ago I made a request for a small change in
CustomJXPathBinding. It can be found here [1]. I already implemented
the
change, made a patch, and placed it in bugzilla [2]. But noone was
gave
me some response to this change (maybe due to vacations?) So I was
wondering; are there people interested in this change, or do I need to
maintain this change in the source tree of my project?
Bart.
