Delete confirmation with beaneditform
I use beaneditform to generate my CRUD UI and web tiers automagically. I
would like to have Delete action prompt me to confirm or cancel the action,
no customization required, plain confirmation box. I saw some threads in
this forum, it does not seem to have any one link annotation or codes that
can let me just provide this simple functionalities. I do not want to write
any Java class or anything that is more than 1 or 2 lines of codes, is it
possible?
If not, what is the simplest approach?
Thanks.

OK you are right. I totally agree with you. Avoid copy->paste and make a new
component.

Again, just use Form and BeanEditor instead of BeanEditForm. As Taha said,
copy and paste reuse is the worst one by far. In this scenario, it's even
worse, as all the logic BeanEditForm has to generates the fields is
actually imiplemented inside BeanEditor. And Tapestry already has the
building blocks to do almost everything of what the original poster wants.

Yes sure I agree, but I guess It cannot be done inside the BeanEditForm
unless you introduce a new component quite similar to it with this delete
functionality.

Hi Dragan,
IMHO copy-paste is never good. Think about any change in BeanEditForm
in the future.

Hi!
I'm sorry, but I wouldn't recommend this at all. BeanEditForm is almost
nothing more than a Form with a BeanEditor and an HTML submit button
inside. The real work is done by BeanEditor, so copying BeanEditForm makes
absolutely no sense to me.

Just customize the bean edit form by adding a delete button, by copying the
entire tml and java class in your components package and make the needed
changes. I use this approach and works for me.
I often use complex components, that let me assemble pages like lego boxes.
I prefer extreme scenarios where for CRUD pages (Even customized crud pages)
don't have ANY (or a few lines at max) java code in the page class, just TML
;)

Most of what you want is done by using a BeanEditor and a couple Submit
instances inside a Form instead of using BeanEditForm. No additional Java
code needed. The confirmation box needs JavaScript and there are some
examples in this list. JumpStart has at least one example of this (and
lots of examples of many other things):

Don't you think you're asking too much? ;) As Howard once said,
BeanEditForm, BeanEditor, and Grid are meant to be used to get something
working quickly, not to be the solution of all scenarios.
