I committed the changes on rv 554226, the end result is something like:
* New base class ContextBean which defines the var attribute (and "id" for backward compatibility). Tags that put values in the stack inherit from it * Move "id" attribute to UIBean so it is in all UI tags * Remove "id" from tags that are neither UIBean nor ContextBean (like Property for example) If we don't find any problem with this we can start updating the examples to use "var" instead of "id" (Some help needed here) musachy On 7/3/07, Musachy Barroso <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
