Abstract Presenters

Hi,

I've created an abstract Presenter, and wired a view to it.

I then sub classed the presenter, but the view wiring from the super
class no longer worked, it wasn't retained in the subclasses.

Is there a way to avoid having to wire the views individually in the
presenter subclasses?

I am not sure exactly what you are referring to, but the first thing I would
check is that if you have overridden any of the superclass methods that you
are issuing super sends from the subclass implementations.  If you have
implemented createComponents in your subclass make sure you call super
createComponents, etc...  Also onViewOpened is another method that needs to
do a super send, not including it can cause other important messages to not
be sent.

Hi Chris,

I actually checked, everything is ok.

I think it's got to do with the prototype mechanism which creates the views.

Never Mind, it was a typo, very sorry

I've subclassed Presenters before and can't recall having a problem -
the schematic wiring set up by the superclass is still valid in the
subclass.
