@Meta and @InjectMeta with a boolean type
I saw a neat solution to meta data using annotations in the Vlib example that comes bundled with Tapestry 4.1.1. *Code:* @Meta({anonymous-access=false, admin-page=false}) public abstract class VlibPage extends BasePage implements IErrorProperty, IMessageProperty, PageValidateListener, OperationsUser { ... @InjectMeta(anonymous-access) public abstract boolean getAllowAnonymousAccess(); @InjectMeta(admin-page) public abstract boolean isAdminPage(); ... public void pageValidate(PageEvent event) { if (isAdminPage()) ensureUserIsLoggedInAsAdmin(); if (!getAllowAnonymousAccess()) ensureUserIsLoggedIn(); } ... } Subclasses of VlibPage can over-ride the value for anonymous-access or admin-page using the same @Meta annotation: *Code:* @Meta( { page-type=Search, anonymous-access=true }) public abstract class Home extends VlibPage ... I thought I'd give it a go: base class for pages, defaults meta value to true *Code:* @Meta({meta-secure=true}) public abstract class BasePage extends org.apache.tapestry.html.BasePage implements PageValidateListener { @InjectMeta(meta-secure) public abstract boolean isMetaSecure(); ... public boolean isSecure() { return true; } ... public void pageValidate(PageEvent event) { System.out.println(this.getClass().getName() + - method: + isSecure() + - meta: + isMetaSecure()); } ... } home page over-rides meta value to false *Code:* @Meta({meta-secure=false}) public abstract class Home extends BasePage { @Override public boolean isSecure() { return false; } } list clients page over-rides value to true (for testing purposes) *Code:* @Meta({meta-secure=true}) public abstract class ListClients extends BasePage ... list projects page does not over-ride super value *Code:* public abstract class ListProjects extends BasePage unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. The value always reads false. *Code:* $Home_84 - method:false - meta:false $ListProjects_95 - method:true - meta:false $ListClients_137 - method:true - meta:false I've stepped through some stacks and have found that the value is being correctly set to the String true and false in the components properties, but somewhere between ComponentPropertySourceImpl.getComponentProperty and my property injected method isMetaSecure, true is not being converted to boolean true. Has anyone come across this problem? Has anyone successfully used booleans in meta data via the page specification as opposed to class annotations? -- Paul Stanton Gunn Software PH: (02) 9918 3666 (ext 503) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: @Meta and @InjectMeta with a boolean type
If I change the accessor method boolean isMetaSecure to String getMetaSecure it works fine. So the problem can be defined as: @InjectMeta only works with String types. This is obvious after reading the documentation, but the Vlib example (written by howard?) is misleading as it suggests usage with booleans works.

Ah...I knew this sounded familiar.

Re: @Meta and @InjectMeta with a boolean type
Thanks Jesse! I'll upgrade as soon as 4.1.2 is released. http://www.tapestryforums.com/ Jesse Kuhnert wrote: Ah...I knew this sounded familiar.
