Hi all, first let me describe what I want to achieve - afterwards I will tell you about the problem I have ;) Perhaps that's merely a Java question but I don't know where to ask instead/wasn't able to find something on the net.
I want to create a "AdminPanel" component displayed only when the admin user is logged in and showing further information about the database record currently displayed in a "RecordDetails" page (like id, version etc.). The component shall be included like this in the "RecordDetails" page: <span jwcid="@ShowAdminPanel" source="ognl:record" properties="id:id, version:version"/> "source" is the object to consider "properties" the object's database fields to display I've created a component template (as the panel shall be displayed in a nice box) and as the length of the list of properties is not fixed I had the idea to use a generic For component inside this template to iterate through an array of all the properties. <span jwcid="@For" source="ognl:attributes" value="ognl:attribute"> <tr> <td> <span key="ognl:attribute.key">attribute.key</span> </td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span jwcid="@Insert" value="ognl:attribute.value"/></td> <td></td> </tr> </span> I'm using the renderComponent() method to parse the properties and create the array the For component can read as its "source" parameter. --- if (isParameterBound("properties") && isParameterBound("source")) { String properties = getProperties(); final Object object = getSource(); String[] parts = properties.split(","); Map attributes = new HashMap(); Object value = null; for (String part : parts) { part.trim(); String[] key = part.split(":"); try { value = Ognl.getValue(key[0], object); } catch (OgnlException ex) {} attributes.put(key[1], value); } setAttributes(attributes); } super.renderComponent(writer, cycle); --- But how can I access the entries of the array without actually knowing which "keys" (that is properties) exist? The above doesn't work :( Thanks!
