good idea... if i had the time for that! i really think that updateFeedback() is about as general as you can get. there is no limitation on what components a feedback component can watch or how and there is no limitation on what the feedback component can do in response to any kind of error condition (or any other condition you can dream up). the only contract is that the framework will tell your feedback component /when/ to update its look. i can't readily see any way to make a more general design...

yeah, i get it now... but it's too complex now. it's a kind of wierd hybrid between the old push model and your new pull model. i think we need to refactor again and make it all a really simple, elegant pull model...


It should be our goal to let people easily create custom feedback components, not to just have the existing feedback panel and form component feedback border (which I allways found too specific btw) work in the way we think it is handy for people. I think we need the feedback boundary and collection component concepts to ensure flexibility. And I think such components should *not* be dependent of our request processing cycle so much.



this much we ALL agree on. have a look at the proposal i just sent out. i think we can make this whole thing a lot simpler somehow...


Sure, making it simpler is allways good.

Why don't we make a special example app in wicket-examples on the different feedback scenario's we can think of? We'll have our playground then, we document the different usages by it, and actual cases make us think better about what we need.
