LoginForm - Vaadin Add-on Directory

LoginForm version 0.1
Initial release

LoginForm version 0.1.1
Renamed client-side classes

LoginForm version 0.1.2
Password manager was not triggered if the application was deployed with a non-root context path

LoginForm version 0.2
* Added a submitCompleted method that can be overridden to be notified when the client side POST request has been fully handled by the browser * Changed the visibility of the getters to make it clear that they cannot be used from outside the login form container * Login form post message handler was not triggered on the server side if the application was deployed with a non-root context path

LoginForm version 0.3
* Revised the API to make the add-on more straight-forward to use. * Added DefaultVerticalLoginForm and DefaultHorizontalLoginForm with a default layout. * The keyboard shortcut for the enter key is not visible in the entire window anymore, it is now possible to have multiple login forms visible at the same time. Migration from 0.2: * Instead of building the layout in the constructor, override the abstract createContent and return the layout. * Instead of calling the getters for the user name field and password field, use the new arguments of the login method. * Instead of overriding submitCompleted, call setLoginMode(LoginMode.DEFERRED) in the createContent implementation.

LoginForm version 0.3.1
Calling the create... methods in createContent was not prevented Do not overwrite manually set IDs for user name field and password field

LoginForm version 0.3.2
Hitting enter while in auto-complete submitted the form with empty user name and password

LoginForm version 0.3.3
Support for native login buttons. You can now override createLoginButton and return a NativeButton instance.

LoginForm version 0.4
Removed "direct" login mode, current browsers don't trigger the password manager in that situation. Login is now triggered when the dummy request returns.

LoginForm version 0.4.1
In Firefox, typing a user name and then hitting enter without selecting a user from the popup or tabbing to the password field resulted in an empty password on the server side Support compilation on Mac OS X

LoginForm version 0.4.2
In Firefox, typing a user name and then hitting enter without selecting a user from the popup or tabbing to the password field resulted in an empty password on the server side Support compilation on Mac OS X

LoginForm version 0.4.3
Avoid wrong "Update password" questions in Firefox if the password field already contained characters before hitting enter

LoginForm version 0.4.4
There was no password manager functionality if the Vaadin servlet was not mapped to the root path

LoginForm version 0.5
Added login listener mechanism to handle the login, implementing login(...) is no longer required The default login forms are no longer abstract Use a more robust way of obtaining the context path to avoid an NPE if Page.getCurrent() returns null

LoginForm version 0.5.1
Fixed a memory leak when showing multiple login forms

LoginForm version 0.5.2
Added support for portlets Added a "clear()" method to reset both text fields in the login form

LoginForm version 0.6
Changed the return type of DefaultHorizontalLoginForm::createContent and DefaultVerticalLoginForm::createContent to return an actual layout type. This makes it easier to override and extend those methods. If you have extended these classes, you will need to change the corresponding return types. Fixed an NPE when LoginForm::clear() was called and the login form has not been displayed yet

LoginForm version 0.6.1
Fixed an NPE when instantiating a LoginForm outside of a request

LoginForm version 0.6.2
Calling setInputPrompt on the password field breaks the functionality of the login form, so disable it from having any effect. The input prompt is not readable, so it does not make sense to use this feature in any case.
