Could I dig this one back up then ;) http://www.nabble.com/Creating-Custom-Form-Components-td16159841.html#a1 6159841
Basically my request was to remove final from FormComponent.add(IValidator...) to aid in creating custom form component subclasses based on precedent with Component.add(IBehavior...) -----Original Message----- From: Eelco Hillenius [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2008 12:51 PM To: users@wicket.apache.org Subject: Re: Making Component easier to Generify > However, I am *in no way asking* the developers to reverse the "final" > policy. We actually relaxed that way more as we felt more confident about Wicket's API and as motivated requests came in. Personally, I think using final or not should be a deliberate choice (not automatic). If you never use it, you can arrive to that evolutionary dead-end pretty quickly (or indeed will have to break clients all the time), but if you over-use it, your framework will lack flexibility. Anyway, IF you stumble upon a final in a place where you'd like to see it go, you can always send a motivated request for that. We've typically been willing to remove finals when a good motivation was given.
