getClientId() seems to output the wrong value

[Robert Binna <r....@synedra.com>]

Hi

Since my last update on tapestry 4.1 I have a problem when using 
getClientId().
I have a Component (DateRangePicker) consisting of a SelectBox and two 
DropDownDatePickers.
To do some javascript (setting the datePicker 
visible/invisible,depending on the range type 
(between,from,to,noSelection)). I want to get the clientIds of the 
subWidgets. Before the update all worked but now the clientIds seem to 
be calculated wrong or I am using them wrong.

I am getting my ids as follows (part of the renderComponent method of 
the DateRangePicker):

    super.renderComponent(writer, cycle);

    Map<String,String> parms = new HashMap<String,String>();
    parms.put("selectId", getComponent("rangeSelection").getClientId());
    parms.put("beginId", getComponent("begin").getClientId());
    parms.put("endId", getComponent("end").getClientId());

My DateRangePickers are defined as follows in the Page template:
    <div jwcid="@DateRangePicker" value="ognl:range1"/>
    <div jwcid="@DateRangePicker" value="ognl:range2"/>

The template Code of the DateRangePicker component:
    <div class="date-range-picker">
            <select jwcid="rangeSelection@PropertySelection" 
value="ognl:currentSelection" model="ognl:ranges"></select>
            <div jwcid="begin@DropdownDatePicker" value="ognl:beginDate"/>
            <div jwcid="end@DropdownDatePicker" value="ognl:endDate"/>
       </div>

The generated javascript with the corresponding ids (retrieved through 
the code above is):

	new synedra.DateRangePicker("rangeSelection","begin","end",{"0":"","1":"today","2":"yesterday","3":"precise","4":"between","5":"before","6":"after","7":"lastweek","8":"lastmonth"});

	new synedra.DateRangePicker("rangeSelection","begin","end",{"0":"","1":"today","2":"yesterday","3":"precise","4":"between","5":"before","6":"after","7":"lastweek","8":"lastmonth"});

But the expected code would be:

	new synedra.DateRangePicker("rangeSelection","begin","end",{"0":"","1":"today","2":"yesterday","3":"precise","4":"between","5":"before","6":"after","7":"lastweek","8":"lastmonth"});

	new synedra.DateRangePicker("rangeSelection_0","begin_0","end_0",{"0":"","1":"today","2":"yesterday","3":"precise","4":"between","5":"before","6":"after","7":"lastweek","8":"lastmonth"});

 
I hope someone can help me to.

Kind, regards
             Robert

Thanks for your answer, but I checked the problem again and I don't have 
2 different forms.

As far as I have understood the main Problem is that in the render 
method of AbstractComponent
the _clientId is erased in the finally block.

To solve my problem I am doing the following workaround:
cycle.getUniqueId(TapestryUtils.convertTapestryIdToNMToken(<embedded 
component id>))

But this workaround seems a bit odd too me. How do others solve this 
issue of getting the client id of an embedded component

What are you thinking about moving this code to 
TapestryUtils.getUniquedId(<component>) ?
or changing the code of the getClientId() that it allways returns the 
correct id and no only while rendered?

Kind regards,
             Robert

your problem may be the same as mine. Did you see if you have 2
different forms on the same page?
