[jira] Created: (WICKET-1975) Allow custom form components to be more easily created by removing final from certain methods.

Allow custom form components to be more easily created by removing final from certain methods.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WICKET-1975
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-1975
             Project: Wicket
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: wicket
            Reporter: Larry Zappaterrini
            Priority: Minor


I was perusing Wicket's Javadocs and I came across a link to an old thread: http://www.nabble.com/Why-add%28IBehavior%29-is-final--td7248198.html#a7248198

The issue in that message thread was resolved by WICKET-94 with the final modifier being removed from from Component#add(IBehavior). I am currently trying to do something similar to the original author of the thread and I believe the same concession should be extended to FormComponent#add(IValidator) and FormComponent#setFieldType(Class<?>) due to similar arguments. In fact, might it make sense to look though the public final methods of FormComponent and only make final those that are absolutely necessary from an encapsulation standpoint?

I have created a component that encapsulates a label/input pair in a form by subclassing FormComponentPanel. It would be nice if calls to add(IValidator) and setType(Class<?>) on instances of that object could be delegated to its input member. My current workaround is to have two additional methods addField(IValidator) and setFieldType(Class<?>) to accomplish this.

I also just realized that I referred to formComponent#setFieldType(Class<?>) in my original description when it should have been FormComponent#setType(Class<?>). Sorry about that.

--------------------------------------------

Could you please explain your usecase in more detail. "It is similar ..." is a little bit too vague. Thanks.

My current workaround is to have two additional methods addField(IValidator) and setFieldType(Class<?>) to accomplish this. This is workable but prevents this object from transparently being treated like a FormComponent.

I also just realized that I referred to formComponent#setFieldType(Class<?>) in my original description when it should have been FormComponent#setType(Class<?>). Sorry about that.
