[Lift] Newbee Question: Why does MappedXXX do not generate a CSS-class/style attribute?

2009-10-26 Thread hyperion

Hello,

I use the "_toForm" method of the MappedFields. Why do they not have
a
field for specifing a CSS-class by default. Ok, it is easy to override
the
_toForm method, but I think there may be a reason that such a field is
not
provided by default???

Then I would have two tables I suggest. But thank you nevertheless, it
is not so
important, I can live with fields mapping single columns ;). I only
wanted to reduce
some redundancy and was interested if it is possible to build such
types.

[Lift] Re: Newbee question Datamapper

2009-10-17 Thread hyperion

I think my simple solution does not work... and the implementation of
MappedPassword is not really easy to understand. I thought such
classes
would be nice for datatypes as Currency, Timespan etc... that appear
everwhere
in the application but where own tables are not useful.

The solution of  Naftoli, I tried... but maybe I did something wrong:

trait MyMappedTimeSpan[T <:Mapper[T]]{
import net.liftweb.util._
import net.liftweb.http.S
import xml.NodeSeq

object from extends MappedTime[T](this.asInstanceOf[T])
object to extends MappedTime[T](this.asInstanceOf[T])

}

class Bericht extends LongKeyedMapper[Bericht] with IdPK with OneToMany
[Long, Bericht]{

  override def getSingleton = Bericht
  object mittag extends MyMappedTimeSpan[Bericht]
...

If someone found a simple solution, please tell me so :)

[Lift] Newbee question Datamapper

2009-10-16 Thread hyperion

Hello,

I tried this:

class MyMappedTimeSpan[T <:Mapper[T]](val owner: T){
import net.liftweb.util._
import net.liftweb.http.S
import xml.NodeSeq

val from = new MappedTime(owner)
val to = new MappedTime(owner)
 }


class DBObject extends LongKeyedMapper[Bericht] with IdPK {

  def getSingleton = Bericht
  ...
  object test extends MyMappedTimeSpan(this)

}

and bound this class with:
"from" -> bt.test.from.toForm,
"to" -> bt.test.to.toForm,

In html:





Everything worked fine... except that my timespan is completely
ignored in the database ;). I think the reason is you use reflection
on class DBObject to find all values that should be stored in the
dabase?... but I have not inspected the source code jet... I am new to
lift and also to scala

My Question: Is it possible to build such Datatypes based on two or
more  DB-Fields of the single table...?... I think even they are
mapped to the "master"-DB-table, such types could be helpful...
