It's not a matter of luck... You can simply have many components all sharing the same class. Think for instance all those template-only components... their class is BaseComponent. So, in a word, Tapestry cannot use the class name (neither the simple nor the full) in order to make apart a component. It always needs the type. type has been made optional to facilitate cases where it matches the class name. I believe that's what stated at http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry4.1/tapestry-annotations/index.html If this causes confusions , i'm 100% for making type required again. >> >> In my application file I indicate that the components are in the >> 'com.transparentpolitics.web.components' directory (or its >> subdirectories).
