In the Spring-enabled example below, the DAODataProvider object has an
entityClass property. When the user navigates to the DemoPage via the Back
button, the dataProvider and dataProvider.dao properties are available, but
dataProvider.entityClass is null. This is because dataProvider is a proxy which
doesn't serialize its own non-injected state fields.
public class DemoPage extends WebPage {
@Inject @SpringBean DAODataProvider dataProvider;
public DemoPage(final PageParameters parameters) throws
ClassNotFoundException, IntrospectionException {
super(parameters);
dataProvider.setEntityClass(UserAccount.class);
add(new CRUDPanel("panel", UserAccount.class, dataProvider));
}
}
@Component
@Scope("request")
public class DAODataProvider extends SortableDataProvider {
@Inject protected GeneralDAO dao;
private Class<?> entityClass;
public DAODataProvider() {
super();
}
}
The solution for retaining the state of a non-Wicket component seems to be to
either do this (Option 1):
(Option 1)
public class DemoPage extends WebPage {
@Inject @SpringBean DAODataProvider dataProvider;
public DemoPage(final PageParameters parameters) throws
ClassNotFoundException, IntrospectionException {
super(parameters);
dataProvider.setEntityClass(UserAccount.class);
add(new CRUDPanel("panel", UserAccount.class, dataProvider));
}
@Override
protected void onBeforeRender()
{
dataProvider.setEntityClass(UserAccount.class);
super.onBeforeRender();
}
}
or use Injector (Option 2):
(Option 2)
public class DemoPage extends WebPage {
DAODataProvider dataProvider;
public DemoPage(final PageParameters parameters) throws
ClassNotFoundException, IntrospectionException {
super(parameters);
dataProvider = new DAODataProvider();
dataProvider.setEntityClass(UserAccount.class);
add(new CRUDPanel("panel", UserAccount.class, dataProvider));
}
}
@Component
@Scope("request")
public class DAODataProvider extends SortableDataProvider {
@Inject protected GeneralDAO dao;
private Class<?> entityClass;
public DAODataProvider() {
super();
Injector.get().inject(this);
}
}
or use Session scope (Option 3):
@Component
@Scope("session")
public class DAODataProvider extends SortableDataProvider {
@Inject protected GeneralDAO dao;
private Class<?> entityClass;
public DAODataProvider() {
super();
}
}
The first 2 options create a tighter dependency between my code and Spring,
which I would like to avoid. With the 3rd option it is difficult to have many
instances of DAODataProvider within the same user session.
Is there a better way to indicate that a SpringBean-injected object should have
its non-injected properties serialized? Or is there some sort of Page scope
where dependencies are bound to a page and deserialized appropriately?
Thanks,
Shu
