TextField hosting an Integer

2010-03-22 Thread Steven Haines 
Hi,

I'm creating a text field to host an integer, namely the year that a house was 
built:
TextFieldInteger yearBuilt = new TextFieldInteger( yearBuilt 
).setRequired( true );

And I'm using a CompoundPropertyModel that maps yearBuilt to an underlying 
bean property. My problem is that the default value for an integer is 0, so 
the text field pre-populates its value to 0, which is a rather silly year 
built date ;)  What I would like to do is mark the field as required and 
validate against a number range, but display the text field without an initial 
value. 

I know I can make it a TextFieldString and then validate on submission, but 
what has me intrigued is my exploration into the DropDownChoice and the 
creation of renderers. For example, I have a dropdown list from which a user 
can choose a value between 0 and 50,000 (increments of 1000), but I built a 
custom renderer that displays No Coverage for 0 (insurance industry.) Can I 
build a custom renderer for the initial value of a text field so that if I see 
0 I return , otherwise I return the actual value, e.g. 2001?

Thanks in advance,
Steve

overwrite the getConverter on your textfield

@Override
   public IConverter getConverter(Class? type)
   {
 NumberConverter fc = new NumberConverter()
 {
   @Override
   public String convertToString(Object value, Locale locale)
   {
   //insert your conversion logic here
   }
 };
 return fc;
   }

best

Change your property to Integer and not int?  That way, it can be null
(which would show up as empty on the text field).
