Description
Scott Greer
*** Bug 358380 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I am committing the JS gen portion of this enhancement; it has been partially tested but there are remaining issues elsewhere: * IRs will require work to support WrapperedFields * Date/time formatting in EDT is different from RBD and seems to be incompletely designed * The ValidValues annotation also requires MOF/Compiler work before JS gen can support it. * The DnD Wizard doesn't appear to generate the correct EGL source, so testing MVC with DnD cannot begin. After talking with Brian, it seemed best to commit what I have and move on to other bugs; I've confirmed that the MVC gen logic will have not break JS gen if MVC gen isn't used. As a follow-up to comment #2, I am NOT committing the formatter/validator annotations for MVC at this time for two reasons: first, because we're not ready for testing to begin, and second, we haven't decided whether these annotations belong in the widget project or in a MOFAR. *** Bug 359504 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Scott, There are two components to the MVC Framework: 1) Assigning Data to and from the model, which includes; the MVC annotation, with its Model and View fields, and the Controllers, with all of its delegates. 2) The Validation and Formatting annotations that can appear on the data that is bound to the View Looking at comment 2 below, it seems that most of the remaining work is for item #2 above. Can you describe the work that is left for item #1? NOTE: I realize that there is implicit validation and formatting that occurs when moving data for specific types, without using the Validation and Formatting annotations, but we can exclude this for now and just focus on the movement of data and the controller delegates. In response to comment #5: 1) Yes, this is what I think of as "core" MVC and it is complete. 2) For the reasons given in comment #2, some of the formatter/validator annotations could not be tested. From my unit-testing notes, the following annotations worked -- F indicates formatter, V indicates validator: * currency (F) * currencySymbol (F) * inputRequired (V) * isDecimalDigit (V) * isHexDigit (V) * lowercase (F) * minimumInput (V) * numericSeparator (F) * sign (F) * uppercase (F) Others on this list may or may not work (again, subject to the caveats in comment #2); some of them I didn't test because I didn't know enough about how they work / what to expect. MVC work is complete. Fixes have been made in generation, widgets, and js runtime. Closing this work item |
