Add attribute to @PerNestedConversation annotation type to allow disabling of inherited @PerNestedConversation behavior ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-2576 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2576 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Core Affects Versions: 2.0.1.CR1 Environment: Seam 2.0.1.SNAPSHOT based on SVN trunk Reporter: Wolfgang Schwendt Priority: Minor The definition of annotation type org.jboss.seam.annotations.PerNestedConversation is annotated with @Inherited. While inheritance of annotations can be comfortable, it has the drawback that every Seam component which subclasses/extends a Seam component annotated with @PerNestedConversation automatically inherits the @PerNestedConversation behavior. Consequently, there is currently no easy way to disable the @PerNestedConversation setting for a Seam component (if one wants to do this for certain reasons). It is NOT possible to subclass a Seam component annotated with @PerNestedConversation in order to override that component and disable the @PerNestedConversation behavior. Feature Request: it would be nice if an attribute could be added to the @PerNestedConversation annotation type to disable inheritance of the @PerNestedConversation behavior. The following example illustrates the idea: @Name("org.jboss.seam.pageflow.pageflow") // override framework provided Pageflow component @PerNestedConversation(disable=true) // disables @PerNestedConversation setting inherited from superclass org.jboss.seam.pageflow.Pageflow @Install(dependencies="org.jboss.seam.bpm.jbpm", precedence=FRAMEWORK, classDependencies="javax.faces.context.FacesContext") public class OverridingPageflowComponent extends org.jboss.seam.pageflow.Pageflow {... } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
