PropertyModel getObject returns null

2010-09-22 Thread Shelli Orton
Hi,

I followed the example on this page
https://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/simple-sortable-datatable-example.html
to create a SortableDataProvider.  I am running into a
NullPointerException when my Comparator class' compare method is invoked
at 

int result = model1.getObject().compareTo(model2.getObject());

My class is exactly the same as the example code except for the type of
objects passed in to the method and used in Type.

The model1.getObject() is returning null.  I have confirmed in debugging
that model1 has both a valid expression and target set.

How does the object get set in a PropertyModel?

Thanks in advance!

Shelli

RE: PropertyModel getObject returns null

I figured out what was happening.  The object returned by getObject is
the property value, not the model object (I'm still wrapping my head
around Wicket terminology/architecture).  I found this example of a
compare method that deals with nulls:

class DataRecordComparator implements ComparatorDataRecord,
Serializable
{
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

@SuppressWarnings({ rawtypes, unchecked })
public int compare(final DataRecord o1, final DataRecord o2)
{
PropertyModelComparable model1 = new
PropertyModelComparable(o1,
getSort().getProperty());
PropertyModelComparable model2 = new
PropertyModelComparable(o2,
getSort().getProperty());

int result = 0;

if (model1.getObject() == null  model2.getObject() ==
null)
{
result = 0;
}
else if (model1.getObject() == null)
{
result = 1;
}
else if (model2.getObject() == null)
{
result = -1;
}
else
{
result = ((Comparable)
model1.getObject()).compareTo(model2.getObject());
}
if (!getSort().isAscending())
{
result = -result;
}

return result;
}
}
