no. dont forget that the idea of IValidator is to be decoupled from wicket,
to allow the reuse of validators in service layer. i do that all the time
now and it rocks! my service layer and my ui layer are validated by the same
code. adding ivalidator.getbehavior() will break all that nice decoupling.
i always thought that something like this would work
IClientSideValidator extends IValidator { /** rerturn a js func to validate
the value */ CharSequence getValidationScript(); }
/**
* Validator that provides a behavior, e.g. for rendering client-side or ajax
* validation. This interface can be implemented by either
* [EMAIL PROTECTED] IValidator validators} or [EMAIL PROTECTED] IFormValidator
form validators}.
*/
public interface IBehaviorProvider extends IClusterable
{
/**
* Gets behavior for validation.
*
* @param component
* component currently using the validator
* @return The behavior, which can be used for rendering e.g.
*/
IBehavior getValidationBehavior(Component component);
}
same here, instanceof check and ready. Not extra code as how to
interpret it, and all the flexibility that behaviors provide.
