BeanModel and complex types?

2008-06-25 Thread Udo Abel 
Hi,

in many situations I have objects containing other objects as fields, resulting 
from a 1:1 reference in a database. E.g., an employee has a refrence to the 
subsidiary where he is working.
In those cases I want to display the name of the subsidiary in a Grid component.
The property can be accessed by something like
employee.getSubsidiary().getName();

Is there a way to extend the BeanModel to access those properties?
Or do I have to duplicate all fields from complex types in simple fields at the 
top level object, like
employee.getSubsidiaryName();
?

Thanks,
Udo.

hi udo,

you have to  contribute the child property type to the 
DefaultDataTypeAnaylzer
so the BeanModelSource will not ignore it

public static void contributeDefaultDataTypeAnalyzer...{
   configuration.add(MyType.class,myType);

take a look https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-2460
it has two examples how to display a complex child property with another
block (containing another BeanEditor)

g,
kris
