<b>IMPORTANT</b> be sure to read the <a href="#1.5-upgrade-path">upgrade path</a> when upgrading from Click 1.4 or earlier.
</div>
<div style="margin-top: 15px; margin-left:-2em;margin-bottom:1em;">
This is our first Apache Incubator release and is based on <a href="#1.5.1">Click 1.5.1</a>.
<p/>
Please note that because of licensing issues, certain third-party
libraries were removed and are hosted externally.
<p/>
Note the following changes when upgrading from 1.5 to 2.0.1:
</div>
<ul style="padding: 0em; margin-left:0em;margin-bottom: 2em">
<li class="change">
All <tt>net.sf.click.*</tt> packages have been renamed to <tt>org.apache.click.*</tt>.
When upgrading you must replace all references to <tt>net.sf.click.*</tt> with
<tt>org.apache.click.*</tt>.
<p/>
You can use your favorite IDE and do a global search/replace or
alternatively use Ant's <a target="blank" class="external" href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/replace.html">replace task</a>.
<p/>
Make sure you update the files <tt>web.xml</tt> and <tt>click.xml</tt> as well.
</li>
<li class="change">
JSCalendar which is licensed under LGPL is incompatible with Apache license
and had to be removed. DateField was refactored accordingly and does
not contain any Calendar specific code.
<p/>
The following methods were removed:
<ul>
<li>
<tt>public String getCalendarPattern()</tt>
</li>
<li>
<tt>public boolean getShowTime()</tt> and <tt>public void setShowTime(boolean showTime)</tt>
</li>
<li>
<tt>public String getStyle()</tt> and <tt>public void setStyle(String style)</tt>
</li>
<li>
<tt>protected int getFirstDayOfWeek()</tt>
</li>
<li>
<tt>protected String parseDateFormatPattern(String pattern)</tt>
</li>
</ul>
<p/>
Since the calendar popup is not available to help users pick dates, it
becomes difficult for users to know the format of the Date.
To remedy this situation, Click 2.0.1 introduces a new resource key,
<tt>date-title</tt>, which is set as the title of DateField. The new
property provides users with visual feedback of the <tt>date format</tt>
specified on the DateField. For those building i18n applications remember to add this property
to <span style="color:navy;">DateField_&lt;lang&gt;.properties.</span>
You can also send us patches for your languages and we will
include it in the distribution.
</li>
<li>
A new project called <a target="blank" class="external" href="http://code.google.com/p/click-calendar/">Click Calendar</a>
was created as a port of the old DateField functionality. This project
contains a CalendarField which can be used as a replacement for the
old DateField.
<p/>
For example to have the popup Calendar functionality replace this:
<pre class="prettyprint">
import org.apache.click.extras.control.DateField;
...
DateField dateField = new DateField("date");
</pre>
with this:
<pre class="prettyprint">
import net.sf.click.extras.control.CalendarField;
...
DateField dateField = new CalendarField("date");
</pre>
CalendarField subclasses DateField so the above snippet is valid.
<p/>
See the <a target="blank" class="external" href="http://code.google.com/p/click-calendar/">Click Calendar</a>
project for more details.
</li>
<li class="change">
The Chart controls which is licensed under LGPL is incompatible with
Apache license and had to be moved.
<p/>
A new project called <a target="blank" class="external" href="http://code.google.com/p/click-charts/">Click Charts</a>
was created as a port of the Chart controls. This project consists of
the BarChart, LineChart and PieChart controls and can be used as drop
in replacements. See the project for more details.
</li>
<li class="change">
The ColorPicker was replaced by Sebo Zoltan's implementation, available from
<a target="blank" class="external" href="http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/index.html?whichScript=submitted-color-picker">www.dhtmlgoodies.com</a>.
<p/>
Changes was only made to the JavaScript, CSS and
images. The ColorPicker API remains unchanged.
</li>
<li class="change">
The RichTextArea, found in Click examples, was based upon the
<a target="blank" class="external" href="http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/">TinyMCE</a>
project (LGPL) and was replaced by the <a target="blank" class="external" href="">YUI editor</a>
(BSD license), which is compatible with the Apache license.
<p/>
The TinyMCE example was moved to the <a target="blank" class="external" href="http://code.google.com/p/clickclick/">ClickClick extensions</a>
project.

<ul style="padding: 0em; margin-left:0em;">
<li class="upgrade">
<b>Please Note</b> Click version 1.5 is <b>not</b> binary compatible with version 1.4. To upgrade your
applications to use version Click 1.5 you will need to:
<ol style="margin-top:1em;">
<li>Recompile your application with the 1.5 Click libraries.</li>
<li>Retrofit the new Control
<a href="click-api/org/apache/click/Control.html#render(org.apache.click.util.HtmlStringBuffer)">render()</a>
method to any on your custom control rendering.</li>
<li>Replace any Control <tt>toString()</tt> methods with an equivalent <a href="click-api/org/apache/click/Control.html#render(org.apache.click.util.HtmlStringBuffer)">render()</a>
method. For further details see the example below.</li>
<li>Form.add(Field), FieldSet.add(Field) and Table.addColumn(Column) now return
their argument instead of void, which enables you to chain calls for example<br>
<pre class="prettyprint">
table.add(new Column("name")).setSortable(true);
form.add(new TextField("firstname")).setValue("Bob"); </pre>
If you created a custom Form, FieldSet or Table and overrode the <em>add</em>
or <em>addColumn</em> method, you will be forced to return the methods argument.
For example if you had:
<pre class="prettyprint">
public class MyTable {
public void addColumn(Column column) {
...
}
} </pre>
you will need to update as follows:
<pre class="prettyprint">
public class MyTable {
public Column addColumn(Column column) {
...
// You must return the column
return column;
}
} </pre>
</li>
</ol>
Note that Click 1.5 is still compatible with Java JDK 1.4 or later.
</li>
<li class="upgrade">
Deprecated methods: <a href="click-api/org/apache/click/Control.html#setListener(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)">Control.setListener(Object, String)</a> and
<a href="click-api/org/apache/click/Control.html#getContext()">Control.getContext()</a>.
These methods have been deprecated on the Control interface as they are not required for ClickServlet -> Control API.
This refactoring is part of making the Control interface as small as possible,
which allows more flexibility in future releases.
<p/>
Note these methods are still available on <a href="click-api/org/apache/click/control/AbstractControl.html">AbstractControl</a>,
so this change should have minimal impact on existing code bases.
</li>
<li class="upgrade">
Upgrade custom Control rendering code to use new
<a href="click-api/org/apache/click/Control.html#render(org.apache.click.util.HtmlStringBuffer)">render</a>
method. This method allows improved rendering performance, because all controls can be
rendered from a single buffer that is created when rendering starts.
<p/>
If your created custom controls override <em>toString()</em>, please adapt it to the following pattern. From this:
<pre class="prettyprint">
public class HtmlTable extends AbstractControl {
...
public String toString() {
int estimatedControlSize = 1000;
HtmlStringBuffer buffer = new HtmlStringBuffer(estimatedControlSize);
// Rendering Start
buffer.elementStart(<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#000099">"table"</span>);
appendAttributes(buffer);
buffer.elementClose();
renderRows(buffer);
buffer.closeElement(<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#000099">"table"</span>);
// Rendering End
return buffer.toString();
}
} </pre>
to this:
<pre class="prettyprint">
public class HtmlTable extends AbstractControl {
...
public void render(HtmlStringBuffer buffer) {
// Rendering Start
buffer.elementStart(<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#000099">"table"</span>);
appendAttributes(buffer);
buffer.elementClose();
renderRows(buffer);
buffer.closeElement(<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#000099">"table"</span>);
<span style="color:green">// Rendering End</span>
}
public String toString() {
int estimatedControlSize = 1000;
HtmlStringBuffer buffer = new HtmlStringBuffer(estimatedControlSize);
render(buffer);
return buffer.toString();
}
} </pre>
Note, the code between the commented section, was moved from <em>toString</em> to the <em>render</em> method.
<p/>
Also note that invoking a Control's <a href="click-api/org/apache/click/control/AbstractControl.html#toString()">toString()</a>
method still outputs the same HTML representation, as toString() delegates to the
<a href="click-api/org/apache/click/Control.html#render(org.apache.click.util.HtmlStringBuffer)">render</a>
method.
<p/>
<b>Please note</b> a common problem when overriding <em>render</em> in custom components, is
invoking <em>super.toString()</em> in order to render the Control's default
markup:
<pre class="prettyprint">
public class CustomField extends Field {
...
public void render(HtmlStringBuffer buffer) {
<span style="background:#F3FF0F">String field = super.toString();</span> // BEWARE this line will cause StackOverflowError
...
}
public String toString() {
HtmlStringBuffer buffer = new HtmlStringBuffer();
render(buffer);
return buffer.toString();
}
} </pre>
The highlighted line above will cause a StackOverflowError, meaning an infinite
loop was encountered. The reason for the error will become obvious when
tracing the sequence of calls:
<ol style="margin-top: 2em;;margin-bottom: 2em">
<li>The first statement in the method <em>CustomField.render</em> invokes
<em>super.toString</em>. In this example the super class is Field, thus
the actual method invoked is <em>Field.toString</em></li>
<li><em>Field.toString</em> performs its own rendering by invoking <em>Field.render</em>.
However since CustomField overrides <em>Field.render</em>, <em>Field.toString</em>
will invoke <em>CustomField.render</em> instead.</li>
<li>This leads us back to step 1. where <em>CustomField.render</em> invokes
<em>super.toString</em>. This creates the infinite loop and leads to the StackOverflowError.</li>
</ol>
<p/>
The fix is straight forward. If you override a Control's <em>render</em>
method, but still want to render the Control's default markup, invoke
<em>super.render</em> instead of <em>super.toString</em>.
Here is the correct version:
<pre class="prettyprint">
public class CustomField extends Field {
...
public void render(HtmlStringBuffer buffer) {
<span style="background:#F3FF0F">super.render(buffer);</span> // NOTE StackOverflowError won't occur
...
}
public String toString() {
HtmlStringBuffer buffer = new HtmlStringBuffer();
render(buffer);
return buffer.toString();
}
} </pre>
</li>
<li class="upgrade">
Certain controls were retrofitted as containers. These include
<a href="click-api/org/apache/click/control/Form.html">Form</a>,

Click 1.5 introduces two new properties: <span style="color:navy;">file-size-limit-exceeded-error</span>
and <span style="color:navy;">post-size-limit-exceeded-error</span>.
For those building i18n applications remember to add these two properties
to your <span style="color:navy;">click-control_&lt;lang&gt;.properties.</span>
<br>If you send us patches for your preferred language we will include them in the distribution.
</li>
<li class="upgrade">
ClickLogger has been replaced with <a href="click-api/org/apache/click/service/LogService.html">LogService</a>.
LogService is an interface with a default implementation <a href="click-api/org/apache/click/service/ConsoleLogService.html">ConsoleLogService</a>.
There are also alternative implementations <a href="extras-api/org/apache/click/extras/service/Log4JLogService.html">Log4JLogService</a>
and <a href="extras-api/org/apache/click/extras/service/JdkLogService.html">JdkLogService</a>.
<p/>
It is possible to write your own LogService instance or extend from
an existing implementation. To setup Click to use an alternative instance you have to
specify the LogService implementation in <em>click.xml</em>:
<pre class="prettyprint">
&lt;click-app charset="UTF-8"&gt;
&lt;pages package="org.apache.click.examples.page"/&gt;
&lt;log-service classname="org.apache.click.extras.service.JdkLogService"/&gt;
&lt;/click-app&gt; </pre>
<p/>
While it is generally not recommended to use the Click LogService in your application code, you can retrieve it using the ClickUtils method
<a href="click-api/org/apache/click/util/ClickUtils.html#getLogService()">getLogService()</a>.

IMPORTANT be sure to read the <a href="#1.5-M1-upgrade-path">upgrade path</a> when upgrading from Click 1.4 or earlier.
<p/>
Click 1.5 M2 introduced major enhancements to Control listener support.
</div>
<ul style="padding: 0em; margin-left:0em;">
<li class="change">
New Control listener support through the <a href="click-api/org/apache/click/ActionListener.html">ActionListener</a> interface.
This control listener style provides compile time safety and supports code refactoring tools.
<pre class="prettyprint">
public class MyPage extends Page {
public void onInit() {
Submit submit = new Submit("submit");
submit.setActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public boolean onAction(Control source) {
// Perform submit action and return true to continue processing
return true;
}
});
}
} </pre>
Note that the source Control is passed in as an argument to the onAction method.
For very complex scenarios it is useful to know which Control triggered the event
[<a target='_blank' href="https://issues.apache.org/click/browse/CLK-369">369</a>].
</li>
<li class="change">
Introduce a two phase listener dispatch mechanism. During the onProcess event,
Control listeners will be registered on the <a href="click-api/org/apache/click/ControlRegistry.html">ControlRegistry</a>
and triggered after the onProcess event finish. The net effect of this change
is that when Control listeners are triggered, all request values have been bound to Controls,
and can safely be referred to from the listener [<a target='_blank' href="https://issues.apache.org/click/browse/CLK-365">365</a>].
</li>
<li class="change">
Added button support to FieldSet, so that buttons can be rendered inside
FieldSets. This change has been enabled by two phase processing which
ensures all FieldSet fields are processed before button listeners are invoked

[<a target='_blank' href="https://issues.apache.org/click/browse/CLK-392">392</a>].
</li>
<li class="change">
Introduced a new resource deployment strategy for <em>Jars</em> containing
Page and Control resources. When Click starts up, it scans each Jar found
in the web lib folder (webapp/WEB-INF/lib) for entries starting with 'META-INF/web/'.
All files found under 'META-INF/web/' will be copied verbatim to the web
application folder.
