I created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-435.
Thanks for mentioning we need to do some work on it. If you're able to, a patch would be more than welcome, as a bit on how to migrate on the WIKI: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-435 Eelco On 3/29/07, Sven Meier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I really like the new models. But IMHO there are some quirks in the new model hierarchy, probably due to the latest model backports: - PropertyModel#propertyType(Component) Is never called, has a @see to non existent method AbstractPropertyModel#propertyType(Component) - BoundCompoundPropertyModel#propertyType(Component) Ditto, makes BoundCompoundPropertyModel.Binding#type worthless - CompoundPropertyModel Since we don't have a ICompoundModel any longer, shouldn't this class be better named InheritablePropertyModel? - AttachedCompoundPropertyModel This inner class implements IInheritableModel, which is superfluous because in Component#initModel() it is tested on IWrapModel before ever being able to be used as an IInheritableModel. - IWrapModel and IWrapModel#getNestedModel() The name of this class and method are misguiding: Wrapping models inside other models is quite common in Wicket (see PropertyModel() javadoc). But this interface is mainly used as a marker for cases, where models are inherited "from components higher in the hierarchy" - see Component#initModel() and MarkupContainer#setModel(). Why not call it IInheritedModel and #getInheritableModel() then? I know that the same interface is used for IAssingmentAwareModel#wrapOnAssignment(Component), but this method could equally well just return an IModel or be a #setComponent(Component). I dare to say that the javadoc for models are in a wretched condition, considering that this concept is an integral part of Wicket. Sven
