Re: [T4] Component initialization and PageBeginRender

2007-05-04 Thread Jorge Montero
First, thanks for the answer. It turns out a version upgrade improved 
things quite a bit: I just upgraded my ancient 4.0 distribution to 4.1, 
and now parameters are loaded before the pageBeginRender in  the component.


The only problem I had with the upgrade was to find the apropriate 
replacement for requestCycle.getRequestContext().getRequest(): I wish 
that the injections that replace the call were mentioned in the javadoc. 
The rest of the upgrade was relatively painless.


Unfortunately, the page's pageBeginRender is always called before the 
component's. This means I can't use the  from the component during page 
initialization, since they are not available yet.


I could use pageValidateListener to do the component initalization, 
since it happens before page validation. I've already tried it, and it 
seems to work. Still, it feels like I'm twisting the lifecycle in ways 
that it was not supposed to be.


Chances are that I just should just not use a component this way, but in 
this case, I think that the alternative is just some code duplication.


Jorge.

I'm trying toconvert part of a tapestry page into a component for reuse.
The part of the page I want to reuse renders two PropertySelectors with
different data depending of the value of a property, and updates another
property by processing the original property and the current values on
the PropertySelectors. When this is part of the page, the filtering and
creation of the models is done during pageBeginRender, and everything
works fine.

My original plan was to just move the code over to the component's
pageBeginRender(). The problem is that, as it is mentioned here (
http://wiki.apache.org/tapestry/Gotchas ), the component is not
guaranteed to have received its parameters in pageBeginRender(), so the
component might fail to initialize properly.

Is there any other way to initialize my component after the parameters
have been populated?
Is there any other scheme that could make such a component work?
