Hi Thiago, Thank you for your help (again). I know how to use the radio/radiogroup component in tapestry - I'm am lucky. But i would never know how to use it just with the api docu link provided. Using a radio/radiogroup element should be done in few minutes. (and IS done in few minutes also with tapestry if you know how to do it)
I see myself "as a mobile developer" - and all the server stuff is done because I have to for my mobile clients. Writing the http services for my clients / among others things / is super-easy and comfortable with tapestry - but again: only after some googling and browsing. What I want to say: tapestry has much potential, is a good choice for java developers and could be a good choice also for NON experts in server programming, BUT it has to provide the basics in the most basic way possible. All beginnings are difficult - and this is what i think what tapestry-experts easily forget. In my opinion, tapestry is not for beginners - but it could be, too! instead of providing an update with a minor performance gain, the documentation should be simplified and extended with more examples. Hence, I am missing "modern/social" components like a simple working OAUTH plugin e.g integrated with tapestry for e.g facebook. Maybe i should start a blog for tapestry beginners :-) alex 2012/8/13 Thiago H de Paula Figueiredo [via Tapestry] < ml-node+s1045711n5715328...@n5.nabble.com> > On Sun, 12 Aug 2012 08:02:20 -0300, sommeralex > <[hidden email] <http://user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=5715328&i=0>> > wrote: > > > Is it true, that the tapestry api and documentation lacks in examples > and > > actuality, or do I read the documentation in a wrong way? > > That's something we can always improve. :) > > > > > basic example, radio group: > > > http://tapestry.apache.org/5.3.4/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry5/corelib/components/Radio.html > > > > 1. > > there is no example on how to make an option field selected as default. > > The solution for that is in RadioGroup, not Radio.
