If only... if only
we had this construct:
class Component<T default Void>
{
}
then all our problems with verbosity would be gone..
TextField tf = new TextField("id") // just default Void
Also only declare it once:
TextField<Stirng> tf = new TextField("id");
And both ways type guessing, so
TextField<String> tf = new TextField("id", new Model()); //textfield and
model are both just <String>
or
TextField tf = new TextField("id", new Model<String>()); // text field gets
the type of its given model..
I guess we should make a feature request for sun and then Vote on it with
all of us!
(and make noise on the internet...)
