getValue() also works with raw input, not just the boolean model object
imagine this you have a checkbox that starts out unchecked you check it submit the form a validator fails, so Boolean.TRUE never makes it into the checkbox model when the checkbox repaints, if it didnt do what it does now and use the model as you suggest it would repaint _unchecked_ which is of course very wrong. furthermore strings.true() doesnt need to be localized, no matter what locale your browser is in submit values such as "on" are not localized. -igor On 2/5/07, Martin Benda <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, why is the boolean model value of a CheckBox converted to a String and again to a boolean (using Strings.isTrue) inside CheckBox#onComponentTag? boolean -> getValue() -> String -> Strings.isTrue() -> boolean Calling (getModelObject() == Boolean.TRUE) should be IMHO sufficient. Since Strings.isTrue(...) is hard-coded and cannot be localized, you will run into problems if you provide your own custom BooleanConverter which converts localized strings. WDYT? Regards, Bendis
