If the source for a grid is a collection which has a generic type of
an abstract class and the list contains concrete classes which are not
all of the same subclass then it throws:
Render queue error in BeginRender[SearchByTag:grid_0.rows.gridcell]:
ConcreteB cannot be cast to ConcreteA
Is this a bug? It certainly seems that way to me; at the very least
it seems a deficiency.
Suggestions for a workaround? (my guess is to create another class
which will hold all the values I want to display, then copy everything
from my list of abstract-derived classes into a list of this new class
- how incredibly ugly. Surely there must be a better way?)
Template fragment:
<t:grid t:source="conList">
</t:grid>
Code fragments:
@Property
@Persist
private List<AbstractClass> conList;
// this doesn't work:
conList = new ArrayList<AbstractClass>();
conList.add(new ConcreteA());
conList.add(new ConcreteA());
conList.add(new ConcreteB());
// this does work:
conList = new ArrayList<AbstractClass>();
conList.add(new ConcreteA());
conList.add(new ConcreteA());
conList.add(new ConcreteA());
public class ConcreteA extends AbstractClass
{
}
public class ConcreteB extends AbstractClass
{
}
public abstract class AbstractClass
{
private String a;
private String b;
public String getA()
{
return "I am A";
}
public void setA(String a)
{
this.a = a;
}
public String getB()
{
return "I am B";
}
public void setB(String b)
{
this.b = b;
}
}
