Thank you for your answer!
It isn't gone. Now you have a single EventLink which is rendered once
for each Loop iteration. Static structure, dynamic behavior. ;)
So when I have several components of the same type in my .tml it does a
difference to having a loop?
If the component is inside a Loop, yes.
I thought it's just a different way to say the same thing.
It's very, very, very different in Tapestry.
One EventLink instance, regardless of how many iterations:
<li t:type="Loop">
<a t:type="EventLink">...</a>
</li>
Three EventLink instances:
<a t:type="EventLink">...</a>
<a t:type="EventLink">...</a>
<a t:type="EventLink">...</a>
Use the context parameter of EventLink to identify each rendered link.
Hm, I thought about that. But how does it help me to know which
component should have been triggered when its still the wrong one?
That's what t:id is for. Anyway, it's better to pass the needed
information in the context instead of relying on which component instance
triggered the event. This is particularly true when your component is
inside a loop of any kind (Loop, AjaxFormLoop, Grid, etc).
Could you please explain how the context parameter would help me? Thank
you for your help :)
It would be way easier to explain if you posted your component and what
it's supposed to do.
One example: suppose you have a list of objects and you want to provide a
link to delete:
<li t:type="Loop" t:source="objects" t:row="object">
....
<a t:type="EventLink" t:event="delete" t:context="object.id">Delete</a>
</li>
void onDelete(Integer id) {
SomeClass object = // get original object from its id
// process object.
}
