Hi,
Right now we have a Block.replace(List<Block> newBlocks) API but I'd
like to add a new one:
Block.replace(Block newBlock);
Here's a use case, be able to write:
for (LinkBlock block :
xdom.getChildrenByType(LinkBlock.class, true)) {
Block newBlock = new
FormatBlock(Collections.<Block>singletonList(block), Format.ITALIC);
block.replace(newBlock);
}
Rather than:
for (LinkBlock block :
xdom.getChildrenByType(LinkBlock.class, true)) {
Block newBlock = new
FormatBlock(Collections.<Block>singletonList(block), Format.ITALIC);
block.replace(Collections.<Block>singletonList(newBlock));
}
The rationale is that in most cases when we do a replace we do it with
a single block since most of our blocks contain children blocks.
I'd like to add this in 2.0 and also in 1.9 (not breaking anything).
The reason for 1.9 is that I'd like to use it in our Rendering
documentation (actually that's how I discovered the pb).
Here's my +1
Thanks
-Vincent
