My code was working using ZK 5.0.2 FL.

But using ZK 5.0.4 and 5.0.5 FL it is not working.

Is this an bug?

Broken code

    private void showForm(Menuitem menuitem) {
		if (!tabboxCenter.hasFellow(menuitem.getId())) {
			Tab tab = new Tab();
			tab.setId(menuitem.getId());
			tab.setLabel(menuitem.getLabel());
			tab.setImage(menuitem.getImage());
			tab.setClosable(true);

			Tabpanel tabPanel = new Tabpanel();
			tabPanel.appendChild(new Include(Labels.getLabel("form.folder") + StringUtils.capitalize(menuitem.getId()) + Labels.getLabel("form.extension")));
			tabboxCenter.getTabs().appendChild(tab);
			tabboxCenter.getTabpanels().appendChild(tabPanel);
			tabboxCenter.setSelectedTab(tab);
			tabboxCenter.setSelectedPanel(tabPanel);
		}
	}

Bellow is the stack trace

To be more precisely

Tab tab = new Tab();
tab.setId(menuitem.getId()); // Contains for example id = cidadeForm

Tabpanel tabPanel = new Tabpanel();
tabPanel.appendChild(new Include(Labels.getLabel("form.folder") + StringUtils.capitalize(menuitem.getId()) + Labels.getLabel("form.extension"))); // Inserted childrens contains id = cidadeForm, so same as the tab being created.

It is really very simple to reproduce the code.

The error was not suggestive, to the really problem: ID was being duplicated

I found the bug.

The bug is at my code. Interesting is that it was working with using ZK 5.0.2 FL.

BTW, I found that the tab created was with same name of the inserted children inside include. So, when resolving apply I think ZK found 2 same IDs components...

Regards,

Change

tabPanel.appendChild(new Include(Labels.getLabel("form.folder") + StringUtils.capitalize(menuitem.getId()) + Labels.getLabel("form.extension")));

To

tabPanel.appendChild(xx);

Which proves definitive there is an bug with creating include/tab at runtime.

The following is the MainForm.zul. The include of CidadeForm.zul direct to the forms works, but using the code it is not working. More below I printed the difference between include directly and those made by code.

<?page id="mainPage" title="${c:l('organization.title')}" contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" style="height:100%"?>

<?init class="org.zkoss.zkplus.databind.AnnotateDataBinderInit" ?>
<?variable-resolver class="org.zkoss.zkplus.spring.DelegatingVariableResolver"?>
<?taglib uri="http://www.zkoss.org/dsp/web/core" prefix="c" ?>

		apply="${mainForm}">

		<style id="theme" src="/css/sdc_default.css" />
		<script src="/js/ssw.js" type="text/javascript" />
		
		<borderlayout>
			<north size="3%" flex="true">
				<hbox widths="100%">
					<include src="${c:l('form.menu')}" />
					<button id="logout" image="/img/sair.gif"

				</hbox>
			</north>

					</tabs>
					<tabpanels>

Peter,

When I replace Include by Iframe it works.

When I try to use an Div wrapper then include it is not working

Div div = new Div();
div.appendChild(new Include("..."));

Let me try to create an very simple code to reproduce the issue and post this as critical bug.

<bean id="cidadeForm" class="com.ssw.sdc.web.CidadeForm" scope="prototype" />

So the definition of CidadeForm was showed. It extends GenericForwardComposer.

Since I need to migrate to ZK 5.0.5 due to vlayout and hlayout I will try workarounds.

apply="${cidadeForm} looks for composer.
From your error message, it's most like ${cidadeForm} is resolved as a tab.
Can you confirm it and dig further?
