Roger Whitcomb created PIVOT-922:
------------------------------------
Summary: Some renderers were not calling their "toString" methods
in the "render" methods
Key: PIVOT-922
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-922
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Bug
Components: wtk
Affects Versions: 2.0.3
Environment: All
Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.0.4, 2.1
Most Renderer instances have the required "render" method and also a "toString"
method. Since "render" can be complicated it is tempting to create a subclass
and just change the "toString" method to do something special with the text
(like using something besides "Object.toString()" to get the proper text).
But, many of the renderers don't call the "toString(Object)" method from
"render", but instead duplicate the logic in there. This renders the subclass
approach ineffective. And there is no particular reason for having the
"toString" method except for it to be used in "render".
