[Jelly] Swing action objects
I have a question about using action objects in a loop, something
like:
...
<panel name="libPanel" var="libPanel">
<j:forEach var="item" items="${manager.managedObjects}">
<j:set var="panelName" value="${item.ID}IconPNL"/>
<j:set var="buttonName" value="${item.ID}IconBTN"/>
<j:set var="buttonIcon" value="${manager.getIcon(item)}"/>
<panel name="${panelName}" var="${panelName}">
<gridBagLayout>
<gbc gridy="0" gridx="0" fill="none" anchor="center">
<label text="${item.topCaption}"/>
</gbc>
<gbc gridy="1" gridx="0" fill="none" anchor="center">
<button name="${buttonName}" var="buttonName">
<action>
<j:set var="tabTitle" value="${item.title}"/>
<j:include uri="openContainerTab.xml"
inherit="true" export="true"/>
</action>
</button>
${dccApp.registerButton( buttonName, buttonIcon, item )}
</gbc>
<gbc gridy="2" gridx="0" fill="none" anchor="center">
<label text="${item.bottomCaption}"/>
</gbc>
</gridBagLayout>
</panel>
</j:forEach>
</panel>
The "openContainerTab.xml" script needs to have the tab title
generated in the loop and saved for use when the button is
activated. I don't think the <action> element is this robust. Nor
can I see clearly how to accomplish this without creating Java
support (registerButton). Am I missing something obvious?
Is there an opportunity here to enhance Jelly is some useful fashion?
Thanks,
