hi all, In 1.5 getConverter has new signature using generics : public <C> IConverter<C> getConverter(Class<C> type)
and this is nice when you have global converter registered in application but in 1.4 it was handy to return different converter in specific component by overriding its getConverter(type). now it is also possible but it requires casting from C type to target type of the component and then back to C. for me this is a bit inconsistent as component always knows which type it using. maybe there should be additional method that can be overridden and it will return converter of type declared on component, what do you think?? public abstract class Link<L> { public Link(String id, IModel<L> model) { super(id, model); } @Override public IConverter<L> getConverter() { return new MyCustomConverterThatIsUsingTypeL; } } and another things is how ConverterLocator sets converters. it is possible to register converter that doesnt match key type ConverterLocator locator = (ConverterLocator) super.newConverterLocator(); locator.set(MyType.class, new IConverter<String>() { @Override public String convertToObject(String value, Locale locale) { return null; } @Override public String convertToString(String value, Locale locale) { return null; } }); where set should be declared as public final <C> IConverter<C> set(final Class<C> c, final IConverter<C> converter). how you deal with this things? maybe there is a better way thanks pozdrawiam Paweł Kamiński kami...@gmail.com pkaminski....@gmail.com ______________________ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
