Re: [Gui4j-user] Casting objects in edit-fields

[Timo M. <me...@gm...>]

Hallo Jochen,

at first, thank you for the fastest maillinglist answer, I ever got. 3
Minutes, wow. ;-)

The conversion method won't help me:
My "Gui-Classes" extends a, let's call it Gui-Base-Class. Every GUI has to
implement a method called getEditEntity, which is the editable entity in
this view.
Of course, every GUI-class represents a different Entity, so the return type
of getEditEntity is different in every class.

I declared an abstract method getEditEntity in Gui-Base-Class, to verify,
that every class provides this method. In deed, it is only a marker-method.

Perhaps I have to use generics to customize the return type. Never used
generics, so far.

Could you imagine to add contentType-tag to edit-component and do a
gui4j-internal casting? Using comboBoxes this works wonderful. A new
Feature-Request. :-)

Thank you
Timo
