Possible BUG in 5.3-alpha-13 : Parameter in Child default value in Parent throws Exception

[dragan.sahpas...@gmail.com]

Hi,
I would like to know if the following is a bug or a feature of tapestry 5.3
because it works in 5.2.5.

I get the following exception:
Unable to locate Method public java.lang.String getDefaultParam1():
com.test.components.Child.getDefaultParam1()

Child.tml
http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_1_0.xsd";>
${param1}


public class Child extends Parent{
@Property
@Parameter(value="defaultParam1")
 private String param1;
}

The parent doesn' have a template
public class Parent
{
 @Log
public String getDefaultParam1(){
return "Default value for parameter 1 in parent";
 }
}

tapestry: 5.3-alpha-13
java: openjdk version: 1.6.0_22 32 bit
os: ubuntu 11.04

Cheers,
Dragan Sahpaski

Well, selenium tests are mainly in the integration apps app1 to app6.
IDK if other tests besides these are selenium tests.

Oh, and if you explicitly want to disable tests just change the enabled

If you use eclipse just run eclipse:eclipse (generates classpath entries for
eclipse) and import the project as an existing project in eclipse and it
will build it for you.

Otherwise, just run gradle tasks and you will see all available tasks.
Here are some of the tasks.

assemble - Assembles all Jar, War, Zip, and Tar archives.
build - Assembles and tests this project.
buildDependents - Assembles and tests this project and all projects that
depend on it.
buildNeeded - Assembles and tests this project and all projects it depends
on.
classes - Assembles the main classes.
clean - Deletes the build directory.
jar - Assembles a jar archive containing the main classes.
testClasses - Assembles the test classes.

In ubuntu I just update the symlinks.
IDK if you can instruct selenium to use a custom command instead of just
firefox.

Hi,
Which version of firefox do you have?
the current selenium version in t5 is compatible with 3.6 but not with
firefox 4
and firefox 5.

Yes. Just return MultiZoneUpdate from the event handler - updating zone2,
with it's id and desired body.

As Thiago said, you (the developer) are responsible of doing this.
One solution is to check the user-agent header. Here is a list of common
user agents http://www.robotstxt.org/db.html.
You can get the user-agent header by injecting the Reqest in your page

@Inject
private Request request;

and use
String getHeader(String name);

Also you can see all headers using  List getHeaderNames();

Wow, thanks for they example, that certainly points out the advantage of
using the annotation approach instead of the naming convention approach.

I'm just not sure why I've never used it. Guess I never thought about this
advantage too much. Thanks for the example once again.

Another advantage of the annotation approach would be that it can be easy to
rename an event during development of a custom component for example by
using @OnEvent(value=MyEvents.SOME_EVENT), using simple refactor->rename in
an IDE. This doesn't happen with tapestry events I suppose because they are
considered as a public api, but can clearly happen during development of
some t5 project using new events.

Also, sorry for stealing the thread :)

Interesting,
As I never had used annotations for event handlers in any project so far.
I choose the name of the event to imply what is needed to be done in the
method, which I prefer to keep it as short as possible (3-4 lines of code,
rarely any more).

Anyway it's nice to hear different opinions.

Re: Form using both a zone and no zone.

[dragan.sahpas...@gmail.com]

I wasn't aware you had nested zones.
Please paste the code here.

It probably is the case that when the outer zone gets updated, tapestry
changes the id of the inner zone, so if you wire the inner zone to the form
using the zone paramter with a literal value of the id, than the form cannot
find that zone.

Anyway please paste the code here and the exact error.

Re: Form using both a zone and no zone.

[dragan.sahpas...@gmail.com]

Hi,
When you submit a form using ajax you can return a Link that will send a
redirect read more in the doc
here
.

When having two submit buttons you can identify which one is clicked by
using
the onSelected event. For example submit with t:id="saveDB" will fire
onSelectedFromSaveDB.

Just customize the bean edit form by adding a delete button, by copying the
entire tml and java class in your components package and make the needed
changes. I use this approach and works for me.

I often use complex components, that let me assemble pages like lego boxes.
I prefer extreme scenarios where for CRUD pages (Even customized crud pages)
don't have ANY (or a few lines at max) java code in the page class, just TML
;)

on rendering JSON in different states (all the logic is based on states).
Using tapestry you can make a GET request and return a JSON response. So
that's maybe the simplest scenario.

More complex scenario would be that you integrate zone's in the whole
picture. This one's tricky and I wouldn't suggest much at the moment. Maybe
one idea would be: when you make an ajax request using an EventLink you
somehow put the name of the action (or some other ID) in the URL and also
the context and the parameters in the URL (basically all info that the
EventLink carries), so if you bookmark and make a GET you make an Ajax call
using those parameters and update the corresponding zone reconstructing the
link that triggers the update.
I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but as I said generalizing
the functionality using zones is not trivial.

Re: Ajax Navigation

[dragan.sahpas...@gmail.com]

Hi,
The approach in general is either use HTML5 history (works for html5
compatible browsers only), or use the hash change mechanism.

As far as I know there is no out of the box integration with tapestry5, but
there are various js scripts like the
history.jsjquery plugin
(supports html5 history and fallback for html4 with the hash
change mechanism), that you can try and share your experience with
community.

Please use the add parameter which adds fields not present in the default

Hi,
You are not missing anything.

Insert an onPrepare() with no arguments.
tapestry will not call onPrepare(Integer officeId) with null for officeId.

Re: updating a zone on form submit

[dragan.sahpas...@gmail.com]

The form will change it's id on a zone update, so either manualy generate it
or maybe do it like this

@InjectComponent
private Form addToLightboxForm;

public String getAddToLightboxFormId(){

return addToLightboxForm.getClientId();

}

and
onchange="$('${addToLightboxFormId}').fire(Tapestry.FORM_PROCESS_SUBMIT_EVENT);"

Re: updating a zone on form submit

[dragan.sahpas...@gmail.com]

Probably the request is not ajax.

You can do it like this, but don't forget to bind the zone parameter in the
form

$('formId').fire(Tapestry.FORM_PROCESS_SUBMIT_EVENT);

tapestry-hibernate TypeCoercers

[dragan.sahpas...@gmail.com]

Hi,
Is there a reason why tapestry-hibernate does not provide a TypeCoercer
between String<->EntityType or ID<->EntityType. it provides ValueEncoders
and the implementation would be pretty much the same.

I have a problem when I re-throw an event from an triggered from an
eventLink. If I catch the eventLink event I can put an entity as a context,
but If I put the same entity as a context to the re-thrown event, than I
cannot have the entity as the context on the re-thrown event handler,
because I guess it needs a TypeCoercer to do the conversion.

Just curious why is there no TypeCoercers for entities and does someone
think this use case is justifiable to file a JIRA.

Render a block and a div in render phase methods

[dragan.sahpas...@gmail.com]

Hi,
I just can't wrap my head around on how to do the following.

@Parameter
private Block block;

void afterRender(MarkupWriter writer)
{

writer.element("div");
// here I want to render the block
writer.end();

}

I cannot use tml template and also I cannot implement this is different
passes of beginRender afterRender etc. rendering the div in one of the
passes and the block in another by returning the block from the render phase
method.

Advice would be very appreciated.

Re: GSOC 2011 ideas for custom components

I guess this could be done when tapestry creates the GridModel and
GridDataSource from the List. Off course for smarter
HibernateDataSource more work needs to be done by pushing the sort in the
hibernate criteria.

Maybe we could do this as a configuration symbol maybe.

GSOC 2011 ideas for custom components

[dragan.sahpas...@gmail.com]

Dear users,
I'm applying for GSOC 2011 to work on tapestry and I really hope you can
give ideas on what you like too see as a part of tapestry.
Maybe focus on some new custom components that you think will popularize the
framework more and be useful for the majority of users.
Please fill free to step in with a suggestion.

My ideas for now are:
1. Right click menu (find existing js implementation and integrate with it?
or make something more generic that can be used with different js
implementations of a right click menu?)

2. Grid enhacements: 1. better pager, 2. sorting params go in URL, 3. Better
HibernateDataSource (more generic). 4.Changing column order and visibility
and saving this in a db.

3.  Integrate Tapestry with some NoSQL database like Couch DB but possibly
not tie ourselves with one driver (Java adapter).

4. Enhance the hibernate support with some extra annotations providing
better control over the type of transactions and open/close of
a transaction in one session (session is opened/closed per request as i
understand).

5. What about making a tab component (like in Jira) that works with the back
button and makes an ajax call when pressing back). Also while on the topic,
can we make ajax updates (zone updates) to add parameter in the URL so that
the back button also reverts the action or so? I know its pretty complex,
but would a simple scenario be useful for the majority of users?

6. Maybe making a notification bubble like in gmail when it says loading..
or sending etc.and also providing the "Are you sure you want to navigate
away from this page" the dialog when closing a browser tab/window when you
have some process in the background (like post or a zone update).
