Hello,
is there a reason why this field doesn’t extend the AbstractField?

Thank you

Hi,

AbstractField code is primarly the fieldSupport to synchronize the value. It’s not needed in this component.
This means the component will override most of the method of the AbstractField.

Are you using AbstractField in your code?

You can also add a ticket in github and check if the use of AbstractField could help.

Hi,
yes we are using AbstractField as good supertype as we generate the forms automatically based on parameters provided to “FieldBuilder” and it returns AbstractField as a result.
We have created similar field by ourselves but this looks better but I cannot use it as it is “HasValue” only.

thank you for your answer anyway

best regards
