(5.4-beta-6) Zone event handler isn't called

As far as I understand, Zone is a component and I can handle it's events.

So I types the following code:

@InjectComponent
private Zone zoneSample;
@OnEvent(component = "zoneSample")
private void zoneEvent() {
    System.out.println(String.format("Zone client id: %s", zoneSample.getClientId()));
}

No exception is thrown so the Zone ID is set correctly. But the event isn't fired ! Shouldn't this event handling method match all events for the zone ?

I expected it to be fired basically before, while and after rendering the zone because I need to see if I can obtain the generated zone's client-id to use it to show this zone later on using the AjaxResponseRenderer class.

Zone fires no events. There's a handy mixin that can help you in this scenario, the RenderNotification mixin.

It provides two events: beginRender and afterRender, I think that's all you need. After you apply the mixin to the zone, the code to handle the events would look something like this:

void onBeginRenderFromZoneSample(MarkupWriter writer)
{
    ...
}

void onAfterRenderFromZoneSample(MarkupWriter writer)
{
    ...
}
