[jira] Commented: (COCOON-2167) Default value of validate attribute of submit widget has changed from true to false

["Jörg Heinicke (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-2167?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12567915#action_12567915 ] 

Jörg Heinicke commented on COCOON-2167:
---------------------------------------

Vadim committed it (http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=517843, only last two files matter) with the following message: "submit widget was not inheriting validate attribute from the library widget". I guess whatever the library widget had set was eventually ignored and only the default value on the submit widget mattered if it actually did not have a validate attribute.

So he added the above if check, but he also changed SubmitDefinition itself to set the default value to true:

     /**
      * initialize this definition with the other, sort of like a copy constructor
      */

So unless the attribute is explicitly set to false everything should be fine.

Could it be that this change only slipped in when back-porting Vadim's concurrency fix, but you forgot to back-port SubmitDefinition as well?

> Hello
> I noticed a change in behavior of cforms lately.  the submit widget now 
> has "false" as default value for the "validate" attribute (opposed to the 
> documenation which says, true is the default value). This really breaks 
> our application.  After backporting vadim's fixes for the concurrency bugs 
> we discovered to cforms 2.1.10, we also "migrated" this new behavior to 
> our cforms version.
> here is the code, which has an extra if statement in comparision to 
> 2.1.10.
> public final class SubmitDefinitionBuilder extends ActionDefinitionBuilder 
> {
>     public WidgetDefinition buildWidgetDefinition(Element widgetElement, WidgetDefinitionBuilderContext context)
>     throws Exception {
>         SubmitDefinition definition = new SubmitDefinition();
>         setupDefinition(widgetElement, definition, context);
>         // parse "@validate"
>         if (widgetElement.hasAttribute("validate")) {
>             definition.setValidateForm(DomHelper.getAttributeAsBoolean(widgetElement, "validate", true));
>         }
>         definition.makeImmutable();
>         return definition;
>     }
> }
> Is there any reason, why the behavior was changed and if it was a 
> accident, could someone revert the code inside the repos to the old 
> behavior?
> thanx alot!
