I started to use Spec, i love nested layouts and so on. But i've got a little
problem. I'm creating a Window with 14 TextInputFieldModel and 14 ButtonModel
and, to avoid the definition of 28 different instance variables (obviously), i
created two arrays which contain the ButtonModel and the TextInputFieldModel
that i need.
^ SpecLayout composed newColumn: [ :columnTeam |
1 to: 14 do:[:i| columnTeam
newRow: [ :rowPlayer |
rowPlayer add: (textPlayer at:i)
; add:#captainButton;
add: (buttonStartingEleven at:i).
].
.....
This is what i did in the defaultSpec of my Player class. captainButton is a
RadioButton defined in self instantiateModels: in initializeWidgets, while
textPlayer and buttonStartingEleven are the arrays of above.Theoretically the
idea is great, while in practice it doesn't work. It give me the following
message: TextInputFieldModel>>layoutFrame:
Help me please!
