Lukáš Fryč created RF-13550:
-------------------------------
Summary: Refactor bridge-base so that it will allow bridges to extend
widgets
Key: RF-13550
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-13550
Project: RichFaces
Issue Type: Enhancement
Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
Components: component
Affects Versions: 5.0.0.Alpha3
Reporter: Lukáš Fryč
This will allow bridges to extend widget API and make it more natural for JSF users,
e.g.:
Editor is now:
{code}
$.widget('rf.editorBridge', $.rf.bridgeBase,
{code}
but we want:
{code}
$.widget('rf.editorBridge', $.rich.editor,
{code}
On multiple inheritance in jQuery Widget Factory:
https://forum.jquery.com/topic/how-to-extend-a-widget-factory-widget-with...
The way of extending API should be designed in that way that user calls e.g.:
{code}
#{r:component('editor')}.setValue();
{code}
but editor has (or rather should have) only a method which is named in jQuery Widget
Factory style:
{code}
data('editor').value() / data('editor').value(newValue)
editor('value') / editor('value', newValue)
{code}
So, we want bridge to add the setValue/getValue API:
{code}
$.extend(widget), { setValue: ..., getValue: ...};
{code}
