Description bugbridge 2007-02-05 17:24:46 UTC 
Original status: 3-Accepted; Suggested Status: NEW

Original Target Release: mako_dev; Suggested Target Milestone : Dev


Description:
SYSTEM INFORMATION :
System Info:
  Product Version       =
  IDE Versioning        =
  Operating System      =
  Java; VM; Vendor      =
  Java Home             =
  System Locale; Encod. =
  Home Dir; Current Dir =
  IDE Install; User Dir =
  CLASSPATH             =
  Boot & ext classpath  =
  Dynamic classpath     =

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
1) I would like to see support for optional and manditory properties that
component developers are able to specify.
2) I would also like to see more intelligent handling of property types, for
instance setting a class should enable one to browse to or select the class as
opposed to treating the property as free text. So the property editor should
become more strongly typed with an appropriate editor per property type.
3) I would like to see easier to read layout of the xml generated, maybe one
property per line, indented. This will make the jsp source human readable.



REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
