[jira] [Commented] (TAP5-1495) tapestry expressions should support a map creation

Howard M. Lewis Ship commented on TAP5-1495:
I think Igor's point was that there was a need for arrays, to support more
complex page activation contexts, but there's no components *currently* in
Tapestry that require a literal map syntax ... though I have no doubt that once
a literal map syntax exists, it will be utilized.

Key: TAP5-1495
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-1495
Project: Tapestry 5
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: tapestry-core
Affects Versions: 5.3
Reporter: Robert Zeigler
Assignee: Robert Zeigler
Currently, tapestry expressions support property access, method calls, null
checks (?.), and quick list creation (['a',b,...]), but there is no support
for map creation.
It would be nice to be able to write:
{a=b,c=d}
to quickly and easily create maps.

Fair enough. For the record, I thought of the map support while considering the
need to be able pass request parameters to the link components. Map is a
natural fit for that, and it then occurred to me that expression support for
maps would be useful.

What is actually the use case?
Currently there is a coercion String-SelectModel:
t:select value=paymentType model=literal:cc=Credit Card,bt=Bank Transfer,
ca=Cash,pp=PayPal/
Maybe we could provide same for String - Map

That's not the syntax I'd prefer, as it won't work well inside an XML document
such as a Tapestry template: Maybe something more like JSON syntax.
{ 'a': b, 'c': d}

Igor: By that argument, what's the use case for list/array creation support in
the property language? We could have provided a coercion from String to List...
Howard: Yeah, the syntax was more just to get the idea down. Json-like syntax
might work nicely.
