Ok, so here is the code for the page
public class ViewDocument extends BasePage{
private List<WeinSyncFileContent> transactions;
....
public ViewDocument(){
transactions = ....;
....
listContainer.add(listView = new ListView<WeinSyncFileContent>("transactions", transactions){
#Override
public void populateItem(final ListItem<WeinSyncFileContent> item)
{
....
}
});
}
}
The page does get displayed but I get errors:
Error serializing object class kz.wein.wicket.pages.documents.ViewDocument
and it's complaining about the transactions field:
transactions [class=java.util.ArrayList$SubList] <----- field that is not serializable
Also I want to note that objects I am displaying in the list are initially taken from library and are not serializable. Wicket wants serializable objects inside lists so to deal with it I take each object and make it serializable with class like this
public class WeinSyncFileContent extends SyncFileContent implements Serializable{
public WeinSyncFileContent(SyncFileContent obj){
... setting fields ...
}
}
so initially I get SyncFileContent objects (that are not serializable)
What can I do about the errors?
You are getting this error because any field level variables in your Wicket pages will be serialized. So its probably a good idea to not have any non-serializable objects as field level variables. There must be an object in your WeinSyncFileContent that is not serializable which is why you are getting this error.
You may want to instead use models to load your list so something like:
public ViewDocument(){
...
listContainer.add(new ListView<WeinSyncFileContent>(
"transactions",
new LoadableDetachableModel<List<WeinSyncFileContent>>() {
protected List<WeinSyncFileContent> load() {
return ...;
}
})
{
#Override
public void populateItem(final ListItem<WeinSyncFileContent> item)
{
....
}
});
}

Rest Controller:
#RequestMapping(value = "/admin/rest/new-subscriptions")
public List<NewSubscriptionDTO> getNewSubscriptions() {
NewSubscriptionDTO dto = new NewSubscriptionDTO();
dto.setId("54");
dto.setName("John Doe");
return Arrays.asList(dto);
}
NewSubscriptionDTO:
package dermatica.web.admin.rx;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonProperty;
import org.joda.time.DateTime;
import java.io.Serializable;
public class NewSubscriptionDTO implements Serializable {
private String id;
private String name;
public String getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(String id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
}
I get the following exception:
no properties discovered to create BeanSerializer (to avoid exception,
disable SerializationFeature.FAIL_ON_EMPTY_BEANS)
If I annotate the fields with #JsonProperty it work fine.
Is there a way for the serialization to work automatically without needing this annotation?
#JsonProperty auto-generates a getter/setter that Jackson uses to read/write to the fields during serialization/deserialization. Here are some alternative approaches:
Provide your own public getters/setters for all fields
Make the fields public, generally frowned upon, but if you're creating a simple DTO, that may be acceptable.
Setting ObjectMapper Visibility for FIELD to ANY (see here)
Disable the FAIL_ON_EMPTY_BEANS exception (see here)
Given that your DTO class has getters and setters, this should work without #JsonProperty. I wasn't able to reproduce the exact error message you showed, but here are some suggestions that may help:
[Controller] Explicitly specify the method type as GET, either using method = GET or #GetMapping - not necessary, but it's good to be explicit
[Controller] Make sure you annotate the controller class with #RestController, indicating the response is serialized to JSON and wrapped in an HttpResponse object.
[DTO] You don't need to extend Serializable (see here).
The final controller would look like this:
#RestController
public class MyController {
#GetMapping(value = "/admin/rest/new-subscriptions")
public List<MyDTO> getDTO() {
MyDTO dto = new MyDTO();
dto.setId("54");
dto.setName("John Doe");
return Collections.singletonList(dto);
}
}
Response:
[{"id":"54","name":"John Doe"}]
As far as I can tell, the Expando class in Kephas allows adding new members on the fly. Unlike the ExpandoObject in .NET, I noticed it is not sealed, so I could change its behavior, but I don't really know how.
[EDITED]
My scenario is to make the expando readonly at a certain time.
Try this snippet:
public class ReadOnlyExpando : Expando
{
private bool isReadOnly;
public ReadOnlyExpando()
{
}
public ReadOnlyExpando(IDictionary<string, object> dictionary)
: base(dictionary)
{
}
public void MakeReadOnly()
{
this.isReadOnly = true;
}
protected override bool TrySetValue(string key, object value)
{
if (this.isReadOnly)
{
throw new InvalidOperationException("This object is read only").
}
return base.TrySetValue(key, value);
}
}
For other scenarios you may want to check the LazyExpando class, which provides a way to resolve dynamic values based on a function, also handling circular references exception.
I've created this code:
public class AddonsModule : Ninject.Modules.NinjectModule
{
public override void Load()
{
this.Bind(b => b.FromAssembliesMatching("*")
.SelectAllClasses()
.InheritedFrom(typeof(UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon))
.BindWith(new AddonBindingGenerator())
);
}
private class AddonBindingGenerator : IBindingGenerator
{
public System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<Ninject.Syntax.IBindingWhenInNamedWithOrOnSyntax<object>> CreateBindings(System.Type type, Ninject.Syntax.IBindingRoot bindingRoot)
{
if (type.IsInterface || type.IsAbstract)
yield break;
yield return bindingRoot.Bind(type).ToProvider(typeof(UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon));
}
}
private class AddonProvider : IProvider<UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon>
{
public object Create(IContext context)
{
return null;
}
public Type Type
{
get { throw new NotImplementedException(); }
}
}
}
AddonProvider seems be avoided. This is never performed.
When I perform:
kernel.GetAll<UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon>(), AddonProvider.Create method is never performed.
Could you tell me what's wrong?
I'll appreciate a lot your help.
Thanks for all.
AddOnProvider is inheriting from IProvider<T> instead of UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon.
also, you may have issues binding to private inner classes. make AddOnProvider a public top level class.
You're binding a specific type which inherits from typeof(UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon) to a provider. For example, there could be a class Foo : UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon.
Now your convention binding translates to this:
Bind<Foo>().ToProvider<AddonProvider>();
Now, kernel.GetAll<UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon>() however is looking for bindings made like:
Bind<UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon>().To...
Fix It
So what you need to do is change the line
bindingRoot.Bind(type).ToProvider(new AddonProvider());
to:
bindingRoot.Bind(typeof(UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon)).ToProvider<AddonProvider>();
Furthermore
you're line object f = bindingRoot.Bind(type).ToProvider(new AddonProvider()); is never returning the binding (object f).
does UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon implement IProvider?
Thanks for your answer and comments.
I believe the trouble is on I'm not quite figuring out how this "generic" binding process works.
I'm going to try writing my brain steps process out:
I need to bind every AbstractAddon implementation inside addons assemblies folder. So, I think this code is right, but I'm not sure at all.
this.Bind(b => b.FromAssembliesMatching("*")
.SelectAllClasses()
.InheritedFrom(typeof(UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon))
.BindWith(new AddonBindingGenerator())
);
My AbstractAddon is like:
public abstract class AbstractAddon : IAddon
{
private object configuration;
public AbstractAddon(object configuration)
{
this.configuration = configuration;
}
// IAddon interface
public abstract string PluginId { get; }
public abstract string PluginVersion { get; }
public abstract string getCaption(string key);
public abstract Type getConfigurationPanelType();
public abstract System.Windows.Forms.UserControl createConfigurationPanel();
}
I guess I need to:
foreach implementation of `AbstractAddon` found out,
I need to "inject" a configuration object ->
So, I guess I need to set a provider and provide this configuration object.
This would be my main way of thinking in order to solve this problem.
I've changed a bit my first approach. Instead of using a IBindingGenerator class, I've used the next:
public class AddonsModule : Ninject.Modules.NinjectModule
{
public override void Load()
{
this.Bind(b => b.FromAssembliesMatching("*")
.SelectAllClasses()
.InheritedFrom(typeof(UIExtensibility.AbstractAddon))
.BindAllBaseClasses()
.Configure(c => c.InSingletonScope())
);
this.Bind<object>().ToProvider<ConfigurationProvider>()
.WhenTargetHas<UIExtensibility.ConfigurationAttribute>();
}
So, My ConfigurationProvider is:
private class ConfigurationProvider : IProvider<object>
{
public object Create(IContext context)
{
return "configuration settings";
}
}
And now, my AbstractAddon constructor contains the parameter annotated with ConfigurationAttribute as:
public AbstractAddon([Configuration]object configuration)
{
this.configuration = configuration;
}
The problem now, NInject seems to ignore the configuration object provider. NInject generates a dump object, however, not perform ConfigurationProvider.Create method...
What I'm doing wrong, now?
Is this approach really better than the last one?
Thanks for all.
I am trying to use Ninject to implement cascading injection into a class that contains an IList field. It seems that, unless I specifically specify each binding to use in the kernel.Get method, the IList property is always injected with a list of a single default object.
The following VSTest code illustrates the problem. The first test fails because the IList field contains one MyType object with Name=null. The second test passes, but I had to specifically tell Ninject what constructor arguments to use. I am using the latest build from the ninject.web.mvc project for MVC 3.
Does Ninject specifically treat IList different, or is there a better way to handle this? Note that this seems to only be a problem when using an IList. Createing a custom collection object that wraps IList works as expected in the first test.

var kernel = new Ninject.StandardKernel(new MyNinjectModule());

var actual = target.GetList();
// Fails. Returned value is set to a list of a single object equal to default(MyType)
Assert.AreEqual(2, actual.Count());
// Fails because MyType object is initialized with a null "Name" property
Assert.AreEqual("Fred", actual.First().Name);
}

var actual = target.GetList();
Assert.AreEqual(2, actual.Count());
Assert.AreEqual("Fred", actual.First().Name);
}
}
public class MyNinjectModule : NinjectModule
{
public override void Load()
{
Bind<IList<MyType>>().ToConstant(new List<MyType> { new MyType { Name = "Fred" }, new MyType { Name = "Bob" } });
Bind<IGenericObject<MyType>>().To<StubObject<MyType>>();
}
}
public class MyModel
{
private IGenericObject<MyType> myGenericObject;
public MyModel(IGenericObject<MyType> myGenericObject)
{
this.myGenericObject = myGenericObject;
}
public IEnumerable<MyType> GetList()
{
return myGenericObject.GetList();
}
}
public interface IGenericObject<T>
{
IList<T> GetList();
}
public class StubObject<T> : IGenericObject<T>
{
private IList<T> _myList;
public StubObject(IList<T> myList)
{
_myList = myList;
}
public IList<T> GetList()
{
return _myList;
}
}
public class MyType
{
public String Name { get; set; }
}
lists, collections and arrays are handled slightly different. For those types ninject will inject a list or array containing an instance of all bindings for the generic type. In your case the implementation type is a class which is aoutobound by default. So the list will contain one instance of that class. If you add an interface to that class and use this one the list will be empty.
I have the following idea:
Business object implemented as interface or abstract class with certain properties as read only to all layers except the DAL layer. I also want my business objects in another assembly than the DAL (for testing purposes), so marking the properties is not an option for me.
Examples could be one to one relationships or other properties.
I have almost solved the issue by doing the following
abstract class User
{
public virtual long UserId {get; protected set;}
public virtual string Password {get; protected set;}
...
}
In the DAL:
public class DbUser : User
{
internal virtual void SetPassword(string password) {...}
}
I then map this using fluent as
ClassMap<User> {...}
SubclassMap<DbUser> {...}
The problem I get is that fluent tries to create a table named DbUser.
If I skip the SubclassMap and creates a DbUser object and tries to save it I get an "No persister for this object" error.
Is it possible to solve?
You could probably override what is done with Fluent
public class DbUser: IAutoMappingOverride<DbUser>
{
public void Override(AutoMapping<DbUser> mapping)
{
//tell it to do nothing now, probably tell it not to map to table,
// not 100% on how you'd do this here.
}
}
Or you could have an attribute
public class DoNotAutoPersistAttribute : Attribute
{
}
And in AutoPersistenceModelGenerator read for attribute in Where clause to exclude it.
Check would be something like
private static bool CheckPeristance(Type t) {
var attributes = t.GetCustomAttributes(typeof (DoNotAutoPersistAttribute), true);
Check.Ensure(attributes.Length<=1, "The number of DoNotAutoPersistAttribute can only be less than or equal to 1");
if (attributes.Length == 0)
return false;
var persist = attributes[0] as DoNotAutoPersistAttribute;
return persist == null;
}
Then it kind of depends how you're adding entities but you're probably adding via assembly so this might do it for you:
mappings.AddEntityAssembly(typeof(User).Assembly).Where(GetAutoMappingFilter);
....
...
private static bool GetAutoMappingFilter(Type t)
{
return t.GetInterfaces().Any(x => CheckPeristance(x)); //you'd probably have a few filters here
}
