I think that it would be nice to have a DelayedValueProperty which provides the functionality of the existing DelayedObservableValue on the property API. That way, we could also get delayed detail observable list/set/maps like this: IValueProperty property = ...; IValueProperty delayedProperty = Properties.delayedValue(500, property); IObservableMap delayedObservableMap = delayedProperty.observeDetail(knownElementSet); Implementing such a DelayedValueProperty would require the functionality provided by the patch of bug 305367.
I almost want to put it in IValueProperty itself: public IValueProperty delayed(int delay)
That's a good idea since it makes the API more handy to use and it also opens up the possibility to override the method in order to decorate the delayed observable with a custom interface like IBeanObservable in case this is desired.
Ovidio, you want this one?
I'll take a look at this but first we would need to apply the patch for bug 305367 before tackling this one. Would you mind having a look at the patch for bug 305367 as you find the time in order to see whether we could commit that one?

I also like the idea of public IValueProperty delayed(int delay). If you are still around, can you provide a patch?
Jens, can you check if this request is still relevant?
(In reply to Lars Vogel from comment #6) > Jens, can you check if this request is still relevant? It is still relevant. But I don't think the proposed additions would be very useful. I think almost all use cases are handled by the existing methods: Observables.observeDelayedValue and IWidgetValueProperty.observeDelayed. Adding a second way to do this seems unwarranted. I think we can close this ticket as WONTFIX until we get a strong argument for the advantages of the proposed additions compared to existing solutions.
Thanks Jens
