Greg Brown commented on PIVOT-520:
----------------------------------
No changes should be necessary to the serializer. All you would need to do is
add the name getter and setter to Component and the getNamedComponent() method
to Container.
However, there is another potential solution to your use case that does not
rely on this change - you could use the user data dictionary of your container:
<BoxPane wtkx:id="myBoxPane">
<Label wtkx:id="myLabel"/>
<PushButton wtkx:id="myButton"/>
<userData myLabel="$myLabel" myButton="$myButton"/>
</BoxPane>
In your code, you can call myBoxPane.getUserData().get() to retrieve the named
objects.

>
> Add a name property to Component
> a) A getter/setter
> b) A method to Container for Component getNamedComponent(String componentName)
> The name should default to an the wtkx:id if one is specified for that
> component or if the name is not specified, null. If a name is specified and
> no wtkx:id is specified , it should become the wtkx:id of that component. The
> name must be a valid java identifier, otherwise an serialization exception
> should be thrown. The name used in the component should be left and right
> whitespace trimmed.
