Re: Help needed for persistent properties initialization in components (4.1.2)

2007-05-27 Thread Alexander Lamb

Hello,

So if I understand correctly the two answers I received,

I should NOT use the initial-value attribute since I will not yet  
have session information (and probably component parameters).


If I need a place to initialize some persistent properties which will  
be called after the component parameters are set but before the  
component renders I need to implement pageBeginRender.

But it is important to keep in mind the semantics of initial-value. It
is evaluated when the component is first created and when it _returns_
to the pool (and not when it is fetched from the pool). Hence, if you
write an initilization function that uses data from the current  
session,

you will not get what you expect.

Re: Help needed for persistent properties initialization in components (4.1.2)

A few things:

-) property-specification is the old 3.0 dtd way of doing things, it should
look more like:



-) There are two relatively easy ways to provide default values :



or

implement PageBeginRenderListener in your component (the name of the
interface is unfortunate as it can be applied to any component - which pages
are themselves):

from http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry4.1/usersguide/events.html  &&
http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry4.1/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry/event/PageBeginRenderListener.html

public void pageBeginRender(PageEvent event)
{
   // initialize your property somehow
  setRegistryCenter(new RegistryCenter());
}

Hello list,

I am stuck with something.

I have a component which goes through several states. Therefore I
need to keep some persistent properties.

That's why in the jwc file I have:



However, I need to initialize some of those properties prior to the
first rendering of the component.

I though I could do it in "prepareForRender(...)" I simply did a
"setRegistryCenter(...)"

But it didn't work, I got the following message:

Persistent properties may only be changed prior to the rendering of
the response page.

Where can I initialize my properties???

Thanks,
