Adrian A. updated CLK-543:
--------------------------
Fix Version/s: 2.3.0
(was: 2.2.0)
> Refactor AbstractLink to Link and include Simple/External Link functionality.
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CLK-543
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLK-543
> Project: Click
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: extras
> Reporter: Adrian A.
> Assignee: Adrian A.
> Fix For: 2.3.0
>
>
> There doesn't seem to be any "simple link" control in Click to be able to
> point to an arbitrary URL (internal but external too).
> There's now the ExternalLink but it's just too specific :( - extending it
> would conflict with it's name (maybe a rename would be better).
> In many cases there's no distinction in the application between an internal
> an external URL (e.g. because the external might be a subdomain).
> Another problem is that AbstractLink is can't be used directly for these
> simple cases (being abstract).
> Basically a SimpleLink code would look like ExternalLink, but it would have
> this additional snippet after L:106:
> <code>
> String ctxPath = getContext().getRequest().getContextPath();
> if(!getTargetPath().contains("://")) {
> buffer.append(ctxPath);
> }
> </code>
> This would allow to use only one control, and in the application logic,
> depending on the target, to let the control itself render the required
> context path if needed.
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
> Update:
> - Refactor abstract AbstractLink class to a concrete class, simply named
> "Link"
> - Include basic Link functionality in this Link class - something like
> SimpleLink and ExternalLink
> - Deprecate ExternalLink
> Users will be able to use the Link control directly so there will be no
> confusions.
> (Most of the time they use ActionLink without an action, because AbstractLink
> is abstract)
