@Meta and @InjectMeta with a boolean type

2007-04-22 Thread Paul Stanton
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?

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.

I think it's fixed in 4.1.2-snapshot

Thanks Jesse! I'll upgrade as soon as 4.1.2 is released.
