#35542: BoundField's label and help_text and renderer should be properties not class members -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: | Owner: Christophe Henry Christophe Henry | Type: | Status: assigned Uncategorized | Component: Forms | Version: 5.0 Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: | Has patch: 1 Unreviewed | Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 0 UI/UX: 0 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- `BoundField` exposes [https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/forms/boundfield.py#L23 label] [https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/forms/boundfield.py#L27 help_text] and [https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/forms/boundfield.py#L28 renderer], all of them are copies of underlying members of `Field` and `Form`.
This is a bit misleanding since you can modify `Field`s member in `Form`'s `__init__` [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/forms/fields /#fields-which-handle-relationships like documented here] but any modification of `help_text`, `label` or `renderer` after `super().__init__` won't be reflected on the bound which can leand to incomprehensible behavior in templates -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/35542> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
