Simple patch to make extending the tag lib much easier
------------------------------------------------------
Key: DISPL-308
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DISPL-308
Project: DisplayTag
Type: Improvement
Components: Tag Library
Versions: 1.1
Reporter: Hans Gilde
Fix For: 1.1.1
Attachments: displaytag-tabletag-extend-patch.txt
It's currently hard to extend the tag lib because several methods of TableTag
are protected rather than public. ColumnTag can access these methods because
it's in the same package. However, if I write a custom child tag for TableTag,
it can't access these methods. So, I'm attaching a patch to make them public.
This request is marked Major because it's such a simple change and it would
make a huge difference in usability.
In case anyone is wondering, I wrote my own column tag that adds columns based
on a preferences system in which users pick the columns that they are
interested in seeing for each type of data. The tag was dead simple to write,
except that I also had to extend TableTag in order to make these methods public.
