i didnt mean the memory slot, i ment the actual default model each component can have. if i can write something like this:
add(new webmarkupcontainer("foo") { private imodel<person> model; protected void isvisible() { return model.getobject()!=null; }); then i am perfectly happy. notice how there is no explicit ondetach() to detach the model. also notice how not having a default model slot really removes the need for typing the component itself, i can implement my own typed getmodel() easily. the only thing that breaks here is wrapping since we no longer have a setmodel...something to think about -igor On Thu, Jun 5, 2008 at 12:53 AM, Johan Compagner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > like matej already told you > There is no default "slot" or field.. > A component with no model doesnt have a a slot what so ever. > > johan > > > On Wed, Jun 4, 2008 at 11:34 PM, Igor Vaynberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > >> like i said, i dont mind removing the default slot if we add nice >> automatic detachment for fields. >> >> -igor >> >> >> On Wed, Jun 4, 2008 at 12:23 PM, Eelco Hillenius >> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> > On Wed, Jun 4, 2008 at 11:48 AM, Igor Vaynberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >> wrote: >> >> i dont think it exposes anything, or that anything is flawed. the >> >> component provides a slot for a default model - it is there totally >> >> out of convinience. i think what is flawed here is that we tied the >> >> two types via generics. >> > >> > It depends on how you phrase things.
