I have a scenario where I have a form and the user puts in a bad value in FieldA, and then also puts in proper values in FieldB and FieldC. FieldB and FieldC never receive their values (in the model object), I’m assuming because the form processing stops at the error for FieldA. The user dismisses the model (which just makes the component not visible and does an Ajax refresh).
The user then goes in to edit the data again (same component, just made visible and refreshed with an Ajax request). Before the panel is shown the underlying model object is swapped out with a new one (that has no values in all 3 fields), however, when it appears the data is as it was previously, including the unsaved values in FieldB and FieldC (from the first pass). This surprised me a bit (not that I’m anywhere near a wicket expert), I would have assumed that since the model object changed that the form components would refresh. So in hacking around, I found that if I visit all the FormComponents and call clearInput() on them, the form will display the correct values (blank in this case). Calling clearInput() on the form itself has no impact (which also surprised me). What’s the proper way to handle this case? I feel like while I have a working case, it’s a little clunky. -Lon
