I don't see anything wrong with the current nested form handling. Care
to elaborate?
It's rather unusual to have to formComponents for the same model on a
single page.
IMHO Patrick shouldn't use nested forms in the first place, I consider
them an advanced feature.

OK. I see what happens.
At
org.apache.wicket.markup.html.form.Form#onFormSubmitted(org.apache.wicket.markup.html.form.IFormSubmitter)
Wicket calls #inputChanged() for the root form, so this calls
#inputChanged() on *all* FormComponents (including nested ones).
My first reaction is: this is a bug!
But then ... the purpose of the rawInput is to preserve the data entered by
the user. So if your #onSubmit() logic in the nested form / submitter
repaints the form components in the root/parent form then their data would
be lost and the user will have to re-type it again.
It seems in both cases the application developer will have to do something:
1) either clear the input manually (as now)
2) or update it manually when needed (by calling #inputChanged() only on
the FormComponents in the rootForm).
IMO the current behavior is wrong.
Please create a bug with a quickstart.

Hi Martin,
this is true for my DropDownChoice2.
But DropDownChoice1 does not get validated.
So, this could be the reason why it is not cleared.
Now... I'm getting more and more confused... *lol*
Page
Form A
DropDownChoice1 displaying selected 'Car 1'
Form B
DropDownChoice2 displaying selected 'Car 1'

Hi Sven,
using clearInput() works.
I call it in onConfigure() of my DropDownChoice.
Ok, so far... but I'm still confused about the raw-input-handling.
Ususally, (and thats what I have in mind): components reflect the current
model objects state.
Whats the reason saving the raw-input and determining the selected value
by raw-input and not by the model-objects value?
Wicket clears the rawInput
at org.apache.wicket.markup.html.form.FormComponent#valid().
FormComponent#valid() is called if the validation and conversion pass
successfully.
You can put a breakpoint and see what happens.

Hi Patrick,
so you have two components using the same model? Interesting.
Easiest solution would be to clear the rawInput on DropDownChoice1:
choice1.clearInput();
If you don't have access to the dropDown from your submitting code, you
might use component events to signal the car selection:
(Wicket events infrastructure)

Hi Wicket Pros,
I have a quite special case here and a question concerning nested form
submits and FormComponent/Raw-Input Handling.
This is my component tree:
Page
Form A
DropDownChoice1 displaying selected 'Car 1'
Form B
DropDownChoice2 displaying selected 'Car 1'
The model-binding of both DropDownChoices pointing to the same member
of
the model-object of the page.
This is my case and code flow:
- Someone uses DropDownChoice2 of Form B and changes the value to 'Car
2'
- Form B does a form submit
- Method onFormSubmitted(IFormSubmitter submitter) of Form A is also
called
- which calls inputChanged() of the DropDownChoice1 (by visiting /
iteration)
- so DropDownChoice1.inputChanged() reads and sets its rawInput to the
current displayed value 'Car 1'
- after form submit is done, an ajax refresh updates Form A
- DropDownChoice1 re-renders an runs through its appendOptionHtml()
- this reads getValue(), returning 'Car 1' from its previously saved
rawInput
- after the ajax refresh is finished, Form A shows the old selected
'Car
1' instead of 'Car 2'
Model-Object updates are working fine... but DropDownChoice1 does not
reflect it correct, due to the raw-input-handling.
Can someone help here, please?
Thanx a lot
kind regards
Patrick
