[jira] [Comment Edited] (SLING-6655) Remove untyped getModelFrom*
methods from ModelFactory
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-6655?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15928645#comment-15928645 ]

--------------------------------------------------------------
By example? The only one (from sling/bundles/scripting) that would come to my mind is javascript. Sightly's use and JSPs are both typed.
Wouldn't it make sense to handle that corner case in javascript then?

> Key: SLING-6655

> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Wish
> Affects Versions: Sling Models Impl 1.3.0
> Reporter: Dirk Rudolph

> As far as I understood the the whole story behind Sling Models API is/was that it can be used to adapt ordinary objects to typed objects. With adding {{Object getModelFromResource(...)}} and {{getModelFromRequest(...)}} this paradigm has been broken. Just looking at the API, what is the purpose of that methods? I agree that it makes much sense to have a binding between the resourceType of {{Resource}} and maybe even {{SlingHttpServletRequest}} and a model, but this resulting into an ordinary object from API perspective makes it kind of pointless.
> I propose:
> * mark them as deprecated as already done in SLING-6652
> * let them throw {{UnsupportedOperationException}} to prevent them being used
> * remove them in the next major API release
> * move the logic of "finding the nearest implementation by resourceType* to {{ResourceTypeBasedResourcePicker}}
> and for the exporter:
> * if a {{@Model}} has an {{@Exporter}} implicitly registered it with the {{implType}} as {{adapterType}}, if not already done
> * use the {{implType}} in the {{ExporterServlet}} to adapt from request or {{Resource}} to the model object
