Wt

There is an issue related to your wording in the integration example (Wt Widget Gallery->Forms).

Using a FormModel and a View:

class MyModel : public Wt::WFormModel

{

public:

static constexpr Field Title_Field = "article-title";

//static const Field Title_Field;

};

Your example (http://www.webtoolkit.eu/widgets/forms/integration-example) says, it's totaly valid to use the c++11 approach. Well, I don't think so.

Try to set a model value from inside MyModel using "setValue(Title_Field,X)" and additionaly from the view via "model->setValue(MyModel::Title_Field,X)" and you end up with having 2 fields.

They are both named "article-title", but they are distinct, since you are using a "const char*" as Field-Type, which is itsel the key in your field map (https://github.com/kdeforche/wt/blob/master/src/Wt/WFormModel). Because "static constexpr Field" does not guarantee the pointers to be equal, this leads to nasty bugs.

I would prefer defining the Field as std::string, but at least you might want to correct (or place an explicit hint) on your integration example, that the C++11-approach does not work.
