Thanks! I added this information to the bug in Jira. Perhaps I can resurrect the change that I had to back out at a later date.

I wonder if there are other places where the new delegate mechanism is going to capture the wrong method. That would be bad...

I didn't want to wave through this change without tracking down what went wrong. So, here is the result: "LzLayout#construct(..)" creates a delegate for the "LzLayout#update(..)" method [1], but as "construct(..)" gets called before "LzNode#__LZapplyArgs(..)" and because we're no longer storing the method-name in LzDelegate, but the function itself, we'll have at this point a reference to "LzLayout#update" instead of the custom update-method for the window's titlelayout [2].
How to prove? Compare:
fw.title_area.subnodes[0].updateDelegate.m === fw.title_area.subnodes[0].update fw.title_area.subnodes[0].updateDelegate.m === LzLayout.prototype.update
Or simply call:
fw.title_area.subnodes[0].updateDelegate.execute()
fw.title_area.subnodes[0].update()


[1] will be overridden by layout subclasses
[2] see windowpanel.lzx

Change 20080621-ptw-z by [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 2008-06-21 06:54:53 EDT
   in /Users/ptw/OpenLaszlo/ringding-clean
   for http://svn.openlaszlo.org/openlaszlo/trunk

Summary: Revert 9782 which broke too many things

Bugs Fixed:
LPP-6370 'window component broken'

Technical Reviewer: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (pending)
QA Reviewer: max (pending)

Details:
   This was an attempt to save a little space by not emitting
   instance classes.  But I cannot figure out how that is breaking
   the window component.  It seemed like a bad idea in the first
   place because it made the tag compiler differentiate the code it
   generated based on runtime -- runtime distinctions really should
   be kept to the script compiler back-end.

Tests:
   windows look correct again
