How to use confirmScreen_? in a Wizard?

[Trond Marius Øvstetun]

Hi.

I am building a wizard and am wondering how to use the confirmScreen_? method on my last screen.

What is supposed to happen when I override this to true? I get an empty screen, i thought I was supposed to get a listing of all fields used in all my (other) screens.

I can't find an example illustrating this, can someone point me in the right direction?

My wizard is looking something like this (and the last screen is empty..):

object ForrisTest extends Wizard {

  val s = new Screen {

    val prosjektnummer = field("Prosjektnummer", 0)

    val ok = radio("Er testen ok?", "Feil", List("OK", "Feil"))

    private object FirstTime extends WizardVar[Boolean](true)

    override def transitionIntoFrom(from: Box[Screen]) {

      if (FirstTime.get) {

        FirstTime.set(false)

      }

    }

  }

  val s2 = new Screen {

    val prosjekt = field("prosjekt", "")

  }

  val conf = new Screen {

    override def confirmScreen_? = true

  } 

  override def finish {

    S.notice("prosjekt" + s.prosjektnummer + s.ok)

  }

}

thanks,

You should get what you expect, but there's a bug in Wizard.  Please open a ticket at http://ticket.liftweb.net (you must be a watcher of the Liftweb assembla space to open tickets) and we'll get it fixed.

Hi, answering the question in the ticket http://www.assembla.com/spaces/liftweb/tickets/792
> I think the solution displayed in the images looks good for now. No need (at least in my case) to be able to edit the fields in the confirm screen.

> A question:
> How can you control how a field is displayed on the confirm screen? In my case I have some fields where I have overridden the toForm method (i.e to make a field display as read-only, the value set automatically in the background on screen load), is there some way to do the same for the confirm screen?
>
> Thanks for quick replies and fixes, great work :)


Every SettableField field (having toForm method) is also a
ReadableField field (having asHtml method).. there is a method in the
patched Wizard.scala (confirmScreenField) which uses that asHtml
method to create the confirm screen fields. So in your case if you
just want to have a customized read-only representation of your field
you can override that method (asHtml) too.
If you would like to have one read-only representation of your field
on the normal wizard screen and a completely different one on the
confirm screen, that is also possible but you have to extend the Field
trait in Wizard.scala ( by adding i.e. asConfirmHtml method) and
override couple of methods (Screen.screenFields and
Wizard.confirmScreenFields) that render the confirm screen field.

Great, thanks for the explanation :)

When will this change be available for testing as a snapshot?

The described solution is just a sample implementation for my own
project needs. For a snapshot we'll wait until Lift commiters have
time to investigate this issue and provide implementation that suits
the framework needs.

I own the ticket.  I will write the code.  We don't accept patches per our IP policy.  The ticket is scheduled for M1 which will land in early February.  I'm flat out on a project right now.
