Re: [Wicket-user] Flexible markup with same Java classes - autoAdd?

2007-03-27 Thread Chris Colman
I was just wondering if another possible solution to this might be to
somehow use autoAdd - ie., only add the components to the page class
when requested based on the components in the markup.

I'm not sure if the autoAdd is intended for this purpose or if it's a
completely different beast altogether but the name sounds right ;)

 Let's say I've created a Layout and corresponding Java classes for the

 following page

 --
 | Header |
 --
 |  | |
 | Menu | Content |
 |  | |
 --
 | Footer |
 --

 Each section is implemented by a separate wicket Panel derived class 
 in Java. The page itself is implemented by a derivative of wicket's 
 WebPage class in the usual manner.

 Now I use variations and so I can have lots of different markup for 
 the single set of classes detailed above.

 I want to be able to have the flexibility to leave the header out in 
 certain markup variations without wicket generating an error because 
 the page tries to add the header component.

 Is there a way to create the markup so I can do this without 
 explicitly telling the Page not to load the header component?

I though of another idea of solving this problem but I am not sure if
this is possible within the wicket page/component lifecycle model:

After construction my WebPage derived class has NO components added to
it.

As the markup is processed components are added to the page on an 'as
needed' basis.

I'm not sure which method I would need to override in my page class,
perhaps onComponentTag or onComponentTagBody? I just look at the tag's
id, look up which component class that represents and then instantiate
such and add it to the WebPage class then call super.onComponentTag() or
super.onComponentTagBody().

Will there be any problems with adding components so late in the game?

Re: [Wicket-user] Flexible markup with same Java classes

2007-03-26 Thread Igor Vaynberg

so you want to keep the same page class, and solely control this from
markup? you have to research the api for getting the markup and then search
it for an attribute or whatever marker you set, but if you dont mind
controlling this via the variation string itself something like this might
work:

class mypage extends webpage {

private boolean headeradded=false;

public void onAttach() {
  super.onAttach();
  if (headeradded==false) {
if (getVariation().contains(noheader)) {
add(new WebMarkupContainer(header));
} else { add(new HeaderPanel(header)); }
headeradded=true;
}
}

or even

mypage() { add(new HeaderPanel(header) { public boolean isvisible() {
return !MyPage.this.getVariation().contains(noheader); }}

if the header panel is pretty cheap to construct

 I want to be able to have the flexibility to leave the header out in
 certain markup variations without wicket generating an error because the
 page tries to add the header component.

guess in your base webpage you should fill the header-div/span with a 
default WebMarkupContainer ( add(new WebMarkupContainer(header)); );

later in your subclasses you could replace the headersection with the 
appropriate panel:

...
MyHeaderPanel hp = new MyHeaderPanel(header);
this.replace(hp);
...

Yes that looks like an quicker and easier solution. The header is very
cheap to construct.

Thanks, I'll give it a try,
