checkboxes not handled by SlingPostServlet
------------------------------------------
Key: SLING-649
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-649
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Servlets Post
Environment: Ubuntu AMD64 FF3
Reporter: Renaud Richardet
Priority: Minor
I am trying to use checkboxes with the SlingPostServlet, as described in
http://incubator.apache.org/sling/site/manipulating-content-the-slingpostservlet.html
<form method="POST" action="/content/page/first">
<input type="text" name="width" />
<input type="hidden" name="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" value="Long" />
<input type="checkbox" name="checked" />
<input type="hidden" name="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" value="Boolean" />
...
<input type="Submit" />
</form>
All elements work fine, excepte the checkbox: the "checked" node property is
always set to false in JCR after a POST. Can anyone confirm?
I guess it's because the POST request parameters are:
width 1234
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Long
checked on
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Boolean
So, the passed checkbox parameter is "on" instead of "true"
I guess I would have to modify SlingPropertyValueHandler.setPropertyAsIs() to
handle "on" values as "true" if @TypeHint is Boolean. Similar to how dates
values are handled if @TypeHint = date.
If it's the right way to go, I will create a patch.
