Certainly, it is an attempt to generalize this solution. But you're
not fair when you say that it is just the same.
I'll try to code some things and then come back to the list with it.
I would like to be able to have such functionality by coding this as a
SmartForm user:
MyPage.html
....
<form wicket:id="globalForm" ..>
<!-- Login "logical" "form" -->
<span wicket:id="loginForm">
<input type="text" wicket:id="login"/>
<input type="password" wicket:id="password"/>
...
<input type="button" wicket:id="loginButton"/>
</span>
<!-- Search "logical" "form" -->
<span wicket:id="searchForm">
<input type="text" wicket:id="searchCriteria"/>
<input type="button" wicket:id="searchButton"/>
</span>
<!-- Main body "logical "form" -->
<input type="text" wicket:id="globalField"/>
...
<input type="button" wicket:id="globalButton"/>
</form>
MyPage.java
MyPage() {
....
SmartForm globalForm = new SmartForm("globalForm");
add(globalForm);
SmartForm loginForm = new SmartForm("loginForm");
add(loginForm);
SmartForm searchForm = new SmartForm("searchForm");
add(searchForm);
// ... form configuration as usual, maybe use a CompoundPropertyModel ...
loginForm.add(new TextField("login"));
loginForm.add(new TextField("password"));
loginForm.add(new Button("loginButton", "Log In"));
// Indicate that the loginForm will not participate in the Global
Form validation process
// So just the "loginButton" will have a validation/model update
action on the loginForm
loginForm.setPropagateValidation(false);
// ... same for search Form
searchForm.add(new TextField("searchCriteria"));
searchForm.add(new Button("searchButton"), "Search");
// SearchForm do not participate in global validation
searchForm.setPropagateValidation(false);
// Main page form
globalForm.add(new TextField("globalField"));
...
globalForm.add(new Button("globalButton", "Submit page entries");
}
This would allow great "validation units of work" power, while keeping
it as simple as it is now for common use cases.
What do you think about it ?
