[jira] Created: (PIVOT-202) ComponentTool contribution.
ComponentTool contribution.
---------------------------
Key: PIVOT-202
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-202
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: wtk
Reporter: Niclas Hedhman
Priority: Minor
I have created a simple ComponentToolPane, which allows people to populate "ComponentTool" instances, which are Grouped and the Groups are Ordered.
This is useful for application that has "tools" for manipulating something on some form of canvas, such as drawing programs.
This is work in progress, but I hope that the Pivot team can consider it for soonish inclusion, and assist me with making the pane WTKX compatible (it is not now).

Yes, it is necessary to offload it elsewhere. GitHub maybe (which is
where I will move some of my stuff)?

Hi to all,
good point Niclas ... many months ago i wrote some utility classes for
Persistence using Web Start services that was rejected (for the core
project) for some (good) reasons ... but if we'd have a subproject
like contrib, experimental, etc that would be the right place.
To generalize this, i see another thing:
I'm preparing some other demo (a revised version of the Persistence,
but this time with different storage as a backend), and others for
Jython and Scala, etc ... in this case how can we do integrating other
libraries that have a license not compatible with Apache ?
Move them to another site like in the pivot-jfree ? Wicket guys have
done something like this.
But the best could be to have only one pivot-stuff, not one for
pivot-jfree, etc ...
And a last thing, a missing feature is a tutorial / demo of how to
extend an existing component, and maybe how to create a new one,
should i open a jira ticket for the 1.3.1 ?
What do you and others think ?
Bye

Greg Brown commented on PIVOT-202:
----------------------------------
This looks really cool, but seems a bit specialized for inclusion in the platform itself. It might make a good demo app, though - would you consider submitting it as such? We could add it to the demos project. It is a good example of how to use Pivot to create such a tool.
Alternatively, we could consider creating a new project that would serve as a repository for code such as this - too specific for WTK, but maybe too generic for demos. Todd has suggested the term "extras", which I don't particularly like. :-) I bet we can come up with a better name, though.

--------------------------------------
I agree that it shouldn't be in pivot-wtk.jar.
If you look at the zip file, I have it in a pivot-contrib folder, and perhaps we could borrow from Wicket;
pivot --> Pivot Core, WTK, WTKX
pivot-stuff --> Pivot Extensions that are direct extensions of WTK and WTKX under the same meme, more panes, widgets, skins...
pivot-contrib --> Pivot Contrib having useful bits of code commonly found in RIA apps.
Under such organization, the above is currently a pivot-contrib, it lacks WTKX compatibility, stability, completeness, but eventually promoted as a pivot-stuff subproject.
