Problems with multiple Beaneditors inside Component

[Stefan Schuetz <st...@wammel.com>]

Hi guys,

i have some serious trouble with a custom component.
The component needs to have multiple zones and beaneditors nested and thats the problem. 
I can’t get it to work.  I’ve tried some variants, without success.

(using 5.4-Beta6)

Where is my mistake? Any clues?

PAGE:
<t:zone t:id="rootZone">
    <t:form t:id="rootForm" t:zone="^">
        <t:beaneditor t:id=„rootFormBeaneditor“ object=„MyCustomObject"></t:beaneditor>
    </t:form>
</t:zone>


COMPONENT - Variant A:
Page renders fine, when updating ChildZone A (returning zoneA.getBody() via eventhandler): 
TapestryException: No object of type org.apache.tapestry5.services.FormSupport is available from the Environment

<t:zone t:id="childZone_A">
    < t:beaneditor t:id="childForm_A"></t:beaneditor>
</t:zone>

<t:zone t:id="childZone_B">
    <t:loop formState="ITERATION">
        < t:beaneditor t:id="childForm_B"></t:beaneditor>
    </t:loop>
</t:zone>


COMPONENT - Variant B:
Page renders fine, when updating ChildZone B (returning zoneB.getBody() via eventhandler):
TapestryException: No object of type org.apache.tapestry5.services.FormSupport is available from the Environment
<t:zone t:id="childZone_A">
    <t:beaneditform t:id="childForm_A"></t:beaneditform>
</t:zone>

<t:zone t:id="childZone_B">
    <t:loop formState="ITERATION">
        <t:beaneditor t:id="childForm_B"></t:beaneditor>
    </t:loop>
</t:zone>


COMPONENT - Variant C:
Page renders fine, updating ChildZone B works, but when reloading the whole page:	
TapestryException: Form components may not be placed inside other Form components.
<t:zone t:id="childZone_A">
    <t:beaneditform t:id="childForm_A"></t:beaneditform>
</t:zone>

<t:zone t:id="childZone_B">
    <t:loop formState="ITERATION">
        <t:beaneditform t:id="childForm_B"></t:beaneditform>
    </t:loop>
</t:zone>


Best regards,
Stefan

It's hard to see from your sample code how this all hangs together but I
think you'll need to use the FormInjector component to add dynamic content
to an existing form.
