------------------------------------
Summary: Need to make load/store work correctly for all containers
Key: PIVOT-945
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-945
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Bug
Components: wtk
Affects Versions: 2.0.4
Environment: All
Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.1
The Component.load and Component.store methods are used to implement data
binding between components and their backing data objects. On Container, the
load/store methods are coded to propagate the load or store down to the
children. But, not all subclasses of Container actually have children.
Viewport/ScrollPane (for instance) only have a "view" which is not in the child
component list. TablePane and GridPane have rows and columns which are also
not in the child component list. This limits the effectiveness of data
binding, in that you basically can only use it within a Form, or other simple
layout container (such as BoxPane), but not in the more complex ones. So, the
idea would be to implement special versions of "load" and "store" on these
other containers so that the operation propagates correctly down the actual
component trees.
