All,
I couldn't find anything like this in the current codebase, but it is
very helpful to me in our current project and I thought I'd propose it
as an addition to the wicket-extensions project:
public abstract class FragmentColumn<T> extends AbstractColumn<T>
{
protected FragmentColumn(IModel<String> displayModel)
{
super(displayModel);
}
protected FragmentColumn(IModel<String> displayModel, String sortProperty)
{
super(displayModel, sortProperty);
}
protected abstract Fragment<T> createFragment(String componentId,
IModel<T> model);
public void populateItem(Item<ICellPopulator<T>> item, String
componentId, IModel<T> itemModel)
{
item.add(createFragment(componentId, itemModel));
}
}
With this, you can just define a fragment within your page that will
be the column's contents. Of course, in your createFragment()
implementation, you'd construct the fragment with all that's needed
(and you could choose from different fragments). What do you think?
If you'd like, I can create a JIRA and submit a patch with this. I
just wanted to run it by you folks first in case I'm way off base or
something. :)
