I have a best practices question...
Let's say I have a text field, like a second line of a street address,
that I consider 'optional'. When I display that entity using
WOStrings, I want to only show that line/string if it contains data.
What I've been doing is writing a method in the component, such as
address2IsEmpty() or whatever that returns a boolean and then I wrap
the line in a WOConditional... Works fine but seems like a bit heavy
handed...
Since I keep finding out cool things that WO will do for you, I
thought I would ask if there is a short cut around writing the method,
etc...
Bind the WOConditional condition binding to the address2 string. Null
will be evaluated as false, a value as true.
