A MetaValue without a value is just a MetaType. I don't see why you need to create a MetaValue without a value, you just need to have access to the MetaType in your template. This is already the case for ManagedPropertys: | /** | * Get the type | * | * @return the type | */ | MetaType getMetaType(); // Never null | | /** | * Get the value | * | * @return the value | */ | Object getValue(); // Could be null | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4128375#...
