[Springframework-developer] webflow: improving FormAction

[Steven D. <ste...@gm...>]

Guys,

Next to the "formObjectClass" property I think it would the useful to
add a "formObjectBean" string property which could be any bean ref id
in the bean factory (must be prototypes). This way one could control
the creation of the beans through Spring. You could for example
already fill in default values which could facilitate the re-use of
domain classes as form objects.

Another remark regarding usage of domain classes as form objects is
about jumping over properties in the form object. Say my form object
is a Manager instance which has a "person" property. Person has a
"name" property. Is it possible to add a "person.name" HTTP parameter
that would set the "name" property on the "person" property?

regards

Steven
