--------------------------------
Summary: Support custom annotations as higher-level semantics (a
la BeanVal)
Key: ISIS-844
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ISIS-844
Project: Isis
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core
Affects Versions: core-1.6.0
Reporter: Dan Haywood
Assignee: Dan Haywood
Priority: Minor
Fix For: core-2.0.0
For example, a contributed collection requires:
@ActionSemantics(Of.SAFE)
@NotContributed(As.ASSOCIATION)
@NotInServiceMenu
@Render(Type.EAGERLY)
public List<Foo> getFoos() { ... }
it would be nice to allow the user to simplify the programming model. For
example:
package com.mycompany.isis;
@ActionSemantics(Of.SAFE)
@NotContributed(As.ASSOCIATION)
@NotInServiceMenu
@Render(Type.EAGERLY)
public @interface ContributedCollection {}
and then:
@ContributedCollection
public List<Foo> getFoos() { ... }
~~~
Thus, Isis continues to define the base "primitive" semantics, but the
end-programmer is free to introduce higher-level semantics/abstractions if they
so wish.
