[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (RF-12296) CDK: missing type information of statically imported members

CDK: missing type information of statically imported members ------------------------------------------------------------ Key: RF-12296 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-12296 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: cdk Affects Versions: 4.2.2.Final Environment: All Reporter: Paul Dijou Labels: cdk, review, richfaces, type Fix For: 5-Tracking As we can see on [this comment|https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-10037?focusedCommentId=1269671...], you currently need to assign a list/array to a var before using it inside a {{<c:forEach>}} or the CDK doesn't know its correct type. As suggested by Lukas, I agree to add a {{cdk:itemType}} (or {{cdk:type}} like in the {{<cdk:object>}} tag) to specify manually the type of the object inside the iteration. If this attribute is present in the {{<c:forEach>}}, then the CDK use it to cast the object, otherwise it does the same as currently, no regression. In addition, for Enum, I would also try to use the initial import : {code:xml} <cdk:import package="org.richfaces.component" names="MyEnum" /> {code} In order to know the type of each Enum and then be able to correctly cast the following code : {code:xml} <cc:implementation> <c:forEach items="#{MyEnum.values()}" var="item"> #{item} </c:forEach> </cc:implementation> {code}
