These methods either are not being called or cannot be overridden. I've tried edittext and checkbox. Somehow and mysteriously their setValue methods are called when their data changes (and edittext acts differently than checkbox in that checkbox sets its changed flag).
There are numerous bug reports (e.g. http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-2579) but can't find one that says they flat out are not called. Since the components are so broken in this area (lots of bug reports) and these methods cannot even be worked around I'm having difficulty implementing 2-way data mapping. I should add that I am trying to create a form that does not commit data until the user hits a commit button, as opposed to changing the data immediately when the component changes value. One thing I discovered is that datapath.updateData() must be called at the form level since calling at the item level calls there anyway but with the side effect of resetting all other components that have changed, and hence not updating their data. Using 4.0.11 swf8, but swf7, dhtml seem to work the same. I feel like I'm missing something. Any help? Thanks.
