Greg,

I will switch to Pivot 2 dev in a few weeks after the initial release is out the door.

Cheers,

Michael

Just to be clear - I'm not suggesting that what you are asking for is unreasonable. It has just been solved in a slightly different way than what you are describing. I think it will meet your needs, if you can consider moving to 2.0 at this point. I understand that it is still fairly far from release, but many of the major changes are already in place. You may find that, in the long run, using the features provided by Pivot 2.0 is a better alternative than implementing a custom version of WTKXSerializer.

There is. Use Pivot 2.0 and <bxml:include> the component you want to initialize.

I don't know what @PostConstruct is.  Does it do what I want?  I just want to 
know when the serializer has finished building my component.  Jeeesh. You think 
there'd be a way...

I think this is the @PostConstruct concept again. However, in a parent-child
tree you may have to bound the initialization process like in WPF
(BeginInit, EndInit) because a parent component is not really initialized
until its children are. You have to pick your semantics to figure out what's
right for you.

Subject: [jira] Commented: (PIVOT-580) Add a Lifecycle callback interface so

Greg Brown commented on PIVOT-580:
----------------------------------

I understand. But keep in mind that BXML is just a shortcut to instantiating
and setting properties on Java objects "by hand". You wouldn't get any such
notifications in Java, so we don't provide them in BXML either. Your classes
should be able to function the same whether they are created by
BXMLSerializer or some other means (i.e. programmatically).



Add a Lifecycle callback interface so that components know when they've
been initialized

              Key: PIVOT-580
              URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-580
          Project: Pivot
       Issue Type: New Feature
       Components: wtk
         Reporter: Michael Allman

I just created
public interface Lifecycle {
  public void initialized();
}
because I want one of my custom components to know when it's been
initialized.  The component takes a specific action after being initialized.
By "initialized", I mean "having all properties set".
The serializer calls this method after it has finished initializing the
component, basically at the end of the processEndElement method.
