Todd Volkert resolved PIVOT-404.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Protected Component attributes methods doesn't work for custom components
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PIVOT-404
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-404
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: wtk
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Reporter: Todd Volkert
> Assignee: Todd Volkert
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.4.1
>
>
> The existing protected attributes methods in Component don't allow custom
> components (those outside of the WTK package) to leverage attributes, because
> "A protected member or constructor of an object may be accessed from outside
> the package in which it is declared only by code that is responsible for the
> implementation of that object." [1]
> This ticket proposes to change the attributes methods to the following
> signatures:
> public <T extends Enum<T>> Object getAttribute(T key);
> public <T extends Enum<T>> Object setAttribute(T key, Object value);
> Containers will define their own attribute enum values to implement their
> static attribute-based methods.
