&, and CssBind vs. CssBindFunc

[Scott Morrison]

I'm having trouble using the & operation on CssBind. When I write:

val inputFields = List("display-name", "email", "home-page")
val transforms = inputFields map (field => ("id=" + field) #>
SHtml.onSubmit(formData += field -> _))
transforms reduceLeft (_ & _)

I get a compile error: "type mismatch; found :
net.liftweb.util.CssBindFunc required: net.liftweb.util.CssBind". So
far, the only work around I've found is forgetting back to the level
of NodeSeq => NodeSeq, and using "andThen" instead of "&". Am I
missing some magic implicit transformation that would make this work?

val inputFields = List("display-name", "email", "home-page")
val transforms: List[NodeSeq => NodeSeq] = inputFields map (field =>
("id=" + field) #> SHtml.onSubmit(formData += field -> _))
transforms reduceLeft (_ andThen _)

thanks,
Scott Morrison

transforms.reduceLeft[CssBind](_ & _)

Sometimes the type inferencer gets things not quite right.

 

       val inputFields = List("display-name", "email", "home-page")
       val transforms: List[NodeSeq => NodeSeq] = inputFields map (field =>
("id=" + field) #> SHtml.onSubmit(formData += field -> _))
       transforms reduceLeft (_ andThen _)

transforms.reduceLeft[CssBind](_ & _) <--- Does it work?

I tried it, but still getting the same error message that says "type

mismatch;  found   : net.liftweb.util.CssBindFunc  required:
net.liftweb.util.CssBind".

Thanks,

Please upgrade to Lift 2.3, the type signatures changed between 2.2 and 2.3
