## com.google.gwt.editor.client
Interface CompositeEditor<T,C,E extends Editor<? super C>>

Type Parameters:
  `T` - the base type being edited
  `C` - the component type to be edited
  `E` - the type of Editor that will edit the component type

All Superinterfaces:
  Editor<T>, HasEditorDelegate<T>, ValueAwareEditor<T>

All Known Implementing Classes:
  HasDataEditor, ListEditor, OptionalFieldEditor

    public interface CompositeEditor<T,C,E extends Editor<? super C>>

extends ValueAwareEditor<T>

An interface that indicates that a given Editor is composed of an unknown number of sub-Editors all of the same type.

For example, the `ListEditor` type is a `CompositeEditor<List<T>, T, E extends Editor<T>>`; that is, ListEditor will accept a List<T> and will edit some unknown number of `T`'s using the Editor type `E`. Another example might be:

     class WorkgroupEditor implements CompositeEditor<Workgroup, Person, PersonSummaryEditor>{
       public void setValue(Workgroup workgroup) {
         // Assuming Workgroup implements Iterable<Person>
         for (Person p : workgroup) {
           PersonSummaryEditor editor = new PersonSummaryEditor();
           // Attach editor to DOM
           somePanel.add(editor);
           // Let the generated code drive the sub-editor
           editorChain.attach(p, editor);
         }
       }
     }

Nested Class Summary
`static interface` | `CompositeEditor.EditorChain<C,E extends Editor<? super C>>` Allows instances of the component type to be attached to the Editor framework.

Method Summary
`E` | `createEditorForTraversal()` Returns an canonical sub-editor instance that will be used by the driver for computing all edited paths.
`java.lang.String` | `getPathElement(E subEditor)` Used to implement `EditorDelegate.getPath()` for the component Editors.
`void` | `setEditorChain(CompositeEditor.EditorChain<C,E> chain)` Called by the Editor framework to provide the `CompositeEditor.EditorChain`.

Method Detail

### createEditorForTraversal

    E createEditorForTraversal()

  Returns an canonical sub-editor instance that will be used by the driver for computing all edited paths.

  Returns:
    an instance of the Editor type

### getPathElement

    java.lang.String getPathElement(E subEditor)

  Used to implement `EditorDelegate.getPath()` for the component Editors.

  Parameters:
    `subEditor` - an instance of the Editor type previously passed into `CompositeEditor.EditorChain.attach(C, E)`
  Returns:
    the path element as a String

### setEditorChain

    void setEditorChain(CompositeEditor.EditorChain<C,E> chain)

  Called by the Editor framework to provide the `CompositeEditor.EditorChain`.

  Parameters:
    `chain` - an `CompositeEditor.EditorChain` instance
