WicketFilter 1.5

2011-03-30 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi,

WicketFilter with 1.5 doesn't seem to use/support 'getRelativePath' any
more.

I used to override this to apply Locale selection and stripping this
information off:

/de/myRelativeWicketPath - /myRelativeWicketPath + Session Locale 'de'

Where can I hook that now?

Best regards, --- Jan.

Re: [OT] where is JPA 2.0 API spec in maven?

2010-09-09 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi Korbinian,

 in fact the current is 2.1.1, but 2.0.0 is reference implementation and
 for the JPA 2.0 API it wont matter what 2.0.x it is (see scope provided
 here - just API);

actually, I meant the javax.persistence-API, which can be referenced
with eclipse:

  dependency
groupIdorg.eclipse.persistence/groupId
artifactIdjavax.persistence/artifactId
version2.0.2/version
  /dependency

The current version there is 2.0.2. From the release notification:

The javax.persistence library has been updated in our repository and in
maven.

The new version, 2.0.2, should address any issues people have had
related to some churn of previous versioned javax.persistence libraries
in our maven repository.

Best regards, --- Jan.

Re: Caching components

Hi Martin,

 One reason for loading some data in contstructur or onBeforeRender is to
 prevent creating huge hierarchies. This is faster than override
 isVisible(), since isVisible would called more than one times.

why are you loading data in the component at all? There is this nice
'LoadableDetachableModel' which could/should wrap that...

 I've started testing this approach and I'm a little stuck. I can easily

you could use modules depending on environment settings e.g.

Re: Scala, dependency injection and wicket

2009-10-07 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi Haim,

 Yes, I remember seeing that. How would you add it to wicket? by adding
 ServiceInjector trait to the Application class or using the wicket-guice way
 (addComponentInstantiationListener(new GuiceComponentInjector(this));)?

the Injector is just a trait, so anywhere it's needed, I just add it to the
corresponding class - whether it's a Wicket component or not doesn't matter. So
you have

class MyWebPage extends WebPage with Injector {
  @Inject val domainRepo: DomainRepo = domainRepo
}

class DomainRepo extends Repo with Injector {
  @Inject val customerRepo: CustomerRep = customerRepo
}

This is a general approach, so no need to add a intantiation listener.

 One more question though, In the example you're only using constructor
 injection. Any reason not to use field injection?

Actually, I use field injection most of the time, see above.

Best regards, --- Jan.

Hi Jahid,

 We need server push for one of our web application. Is there something
 that you can suggest? The requirement is, it should work on any server
 (Tomcat, jetty, jboss,). is there any wicket component that does
 this?

as far as I know there isn't any standard yet which works on any servlet
container. This is on the roadmap for the servlet api 3.0. Tomcat has a
different API than Jetty than resin.

I'm going for pull ATM, which works fine for my purposes. But your mileage may

Re: Wicket-Scala extensions

2009-07-14 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi Antony,

great to see Scala and Wicket getting more popular. :-)

I've been using them together quite a while now and am convinced that there are
lots of benefits in it!

I created a dynamic component (like wicket:component which isn't officially
supported) which also works with Ajax. There's also a 'VarModel' which is
similar to your Fodel. You'll find the sources here:
http://www.footprint.de/fcc/2008/11/some-wicket-scala/

I also use Scala's mixin capabilities to abstract layout information out of the
pages/components. E.g. to define cell styles of datatable columns or to format
cell output, I have something like:

  trait Centered[T] extends IStyledColumn[T] {
abstract override def getCssClass: String = {
  val style = super.getCssClass

  if( style==null ) columnCentered
  else style +   + columnCentered
}
  }

  trait DateFormat[T] extends PropertyColumn[T] {
override protected def createLabelModel( embeddedModel: IModel[T] ):
IModel[_] = {
  val m = super.createLabelModel( embeddedModel )
  m.getObject match {
case dt: DateTime = VarModel( dt.toString( dateFormatter.withLocale(
getLocale ) ) )
case _ = m
  }
}
  }

To create/apply a cell to use this style I just have to apply this trait:

val col1 = new PropertyColumn[M]( new Model( Date ), COL_DATE, reg_date )
with Centered[M] with DateFormat[M]


Scala's just great to abstract more between logic and layout.

Re: shorter input names

2009-05-18 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi Ian,

 Thanks for that.  For your solution to work it looks like wicket would
 need to only call getInputName at most once for each input (since
 subsequent calls would return different names).  Is that how it works?

no, within the trait I override the 'def getInputName' from Wicket with a 'val
getInputName' - i.e. even when Wicket is calling it more than once it is still
only evaluated once. That's another nice thing Scala provides... :-)

Re: shorter input names

2009-05-17 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi Ian,

 Is there a way to get wicket to generate shorter name attributes for
 input elements?  I have a largish form and most of the data being sent
 to the server is the names of the input elements.

it is by overriding the method 'getInputName' on every FormComponent and
returning a stable identifier over requests - though this is pretty horrible
task to do.

If you're using Scala instead of Java things are getting better, though. I
defined the following trait (aka implemented interface):

---
object FormInputNameId {
  private var currId = 0

  private def getName = {
if( currId==Integer.MAX_VALUE-1 ) currId=1 else currId = currId + 1
fid: + currId
  }
}

trait FormInputNameId[T] extends FormComponent[T] {
  override val getInputName: String = FormInputNameId.getName
}
---

This trait can be attached to any FormComponent with just something like

val newFormComponent = new TextField( id ) with FormInputNameId

The Scala compiler does the rest for you (one of my favorite features of Scala
to have real reusable code!).

Re: How To Download Excel File?

2009-03-31 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi,

 I could be wrong - but maybe the question is about how best to structure
 this in Wicket ..

it's just that easy (this is Scala, not Java):

  add( new Link( ImageLink.ID_LINK ) {
def onClick = {
  val resourceStream = new ByteArrayResourceStream(
xlsExporter.createExcel, application/vnd.ms-excel );
  getRequestCycle.setRequestTarget( new ResourceStreamRequestTarget(
resourceStream ) {
override def getFileName = export.xls
  } )
}
  })

ByteArrayResourceStream is a simple implementation of IResourceStream. Creating
the Excel bytearray is another issue (I suggest using Apache POI).

Re: Making wicket work with Dynamically created html

2009-03-24 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi Vasya,

 The velocity template is pretty good at displaying the html elements
 dynamically, but im not finding an easy way to bind the data back...

I'm not really sure what you're trying to accomplish. You can't use the velocity
to create wicket-components on the fly and have them bound to a form, that'll
not work.

If you want to create some dynamic form you should use repeaters and build them
up using them - and bind the formcomponents directly to the model (maybe you
need to write some specialized model yourself).

I did something like that with XML specifying the form and having a ElementModel
binding the form elements to JDOM nodes.

Re: handling not mounted URLs

Hi Jeremy,

 Can you mount another filter that, if Wicket does not respond, instead
 responds with either a valid page or a redirect back to a valid Wicket page?

no, that's no option. I got the ErrorPage-Version working in the way that I
manually set the status code with

val uri = req.getAttribute( javax.servlet.error.request_uri 
).asInstanceOf[String]
if( uri!=null ) {
  val res = getResponse.asInstanceOf[WebResponse].getHttpServletResponse
  res.setStatus( 200 )
}

That way you get a 200 on the client.

Re: Things I miss in Wicket

2009-01-16 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi Tobias,

I don't agree on a couple of points you made on Wicket.

Wicket is providing the GUI and you have to make sure your gluing to the backend
is as transparent as it can be. So, if you have your interfaces untouched, you
wont need to touch the Java code again for your 3-5 years. Also, wicket allows
easy separation of your markup from your Java code, making redesign not that a
big task as you suggest (given that the hierarchies need to be kept).

But, I think a web /application/ is meant to evolve and not left untouched for
years.

Another thing about Wicket: It's all about reusability. If you design
components, you can jar them up and just drop them into another project. That's
one thing most frameworks don't allow.

If you want to sell a product and don't want the customer to know Java: get your
resources from a database and integrate some kind of templating. It just works
with Wicket as well.

I think I write my web applications at least as fast as you do with PHP. I have
my established Wicket base and just put together the components I need: drop in
authentication, localize things, complex wizards... I doubt you'll be that
error-free in writing such code with PHP than you'd do with Wicket as a base. I
never needed to debug much with Wicket at all.

Most PHP I've seen mixes business logic and user interface so badly that - when
you need to enhance things - you're really in trouble.

My 2c, --- Jan.

2009-01-05 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi,

 auto components are removed after rendering is complete if i recall
 correctly, so there is nothing processing the submitted input.

there are a couple of problems with that approach, same for embedding components
in markup with the wicket:component

I approached a similar problem auto-adding components with templates. My
solution can be found here: 
http://www.footprint.de/fcc/2008/11/some-wicket-scala/

Instead of handling wxComponent you might filter for other tags - so that might
be the solution for you, too.

Hope this helps.

Best regards, --- Jan.

1.4 trunk: AjaxRequestTarget.appendJavascript

2009-01-02 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi,

current 1.4 trunk 'messes' with escaping '[' to '[^' on
AjaxRequestTarget.appendJavascript which leeds to non-functional Javascript (at
least on my FF 3) when using array indices on variables.

It worked fine before without problems here - where/in which cases is the
escacping for the CDATA necessary?

TextFilteredPropertyColumn[T] and getFilterModel

2008-12-28 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi,

I'm trying to work out how to handle TextFilteredPropertyColumn with wicket 1.4.

I'm trying to do the following:

tf = new TextFilteredPropertyColumnM( new Model( Name ), COL_NAME, name ){
  protected IModelString getFilterModel( FilterForm form ) {
return new PropertyModelString(
getDataProvider.getFilterState.getFilterMap( FilterMaps.LIKE ), getSortProperty 
)
  }
}

COL_NAME (= sort property) / Filter value are organized in a simple
HashMapString,String.

This worked fine with Wicket 1.3.x - Wicket 1.4 insists that getFilterModel
returns an IModelM - which is obscure, since the filter doesn't have to match
the Model of the Column.

Am I missing something?

Best regards, --- Jan.

Re: Openid integration?

2008-12-03 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi Nino,

 Hmm Im using auth roles now.. Are there an way to integrate the two..?

that shouldn't be a too big deal, you just have to convert the spring-security
granted authorities into 'roles'.

To get the AuthenticationManager into your Application you could use the Spring
factory (Scala code):

---8---
class AuthTestApplication extends WebApplication {
  import org.springframework.security.AuthenticationManager
  import scala.reflect.BeanProperty

  // injected/set by Spring context
  @BeanProperty var authenticationManager: AuthenticationManager = null
  ...
}

Testing with jetty embedded in test + httpunit

2008-11-23 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi,

running a Wicket application with jetty:run works just fine.

Now I thought it should be possible to launch an embedded jetty within a test
and have httpunit run against it.

Written the test and starting up the internal jetty: Everything seems to be
fine, application is launched with the complete environment (spring injection,
spring security listener).

Now comes httpunit: Requesting the TestSuitePage == 500 servlet exception! :-O

12:49:17.426 ERROR o.a.w.RequestCycle - Markup of type 'html' for component
'test.TestSuitePage' not found

I double checked that TestSuitePage.html is actually in place and copied to the
test-classes folder.

Has anyone a clue what I'm doing wrong or which settings I have to adjust to
make Wicket happy?

Re: Migration to 1.4 - generic headache

Hi Igor,

 yes it sucks. i agree. personally i prefer code written against wicket

 casts i do not remember getting any class cast exceptions.

hehe - just as I was saying months ago. *g*

Re: Migration to 1.4 - generic headache

2008-10-29 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi Igor,

 you are against generics completely. but they are going to happen. the
 way they are now is not perfect, in 1.5 we will try to move them to a
 better place, but like it or not they are here to stay.

huh - hell, no, I'm not against generics at all. Where do you get that from? I'm
against generics on Components which are not FormComponents (or ListViews)!

I'm using Wicket together with Scala and other than with Java, I can't just drop
the generics attributes (and live with the warnings). And the Void is really a
hell of a generic...

Generics on Models are what is needed and if your vision to decouple models from
the component and use introspection/reflection to support them comes true I'd be
quite happy (and could use Scala's mixin-feature to have my model functionality
on the components).

Re: wicket-ioc/cglib constructor injection

2008-10-20 Thread Jan Kriesten

Hi Igor,

 add a package private default constructor to your class.

default constructor wont work in this case.

 these are all well known limitations of proxying classes, you should try to
 make sure your injected dependencies are interfaces or you something like
 salve so no proxies are needed.

Defining an interface for the class results in wicket-ioc not injecting the
original class/constructor at all. So there's a flaw with this approach.

 I think it's the order they are mapped in the web.xml file.  The

right, but I used the word 'filter' not as a synonym for the xml-tags but the

Re: Web statistics tools, analysis

Hi,

 Google Analytics?

I have my problems with this, actually. There are privacy-policy-issues with
Google Analytics, especially in germany. You have no control to remove log
information after a certain time or remove tracks if user demand it.

As nice as Google Analytics looks, it's actually against German laws to just
give 'personal' user data to a third party without the user having agreed to it.
And IP's are considered personal data. Google and other companies are started to
be questioned about this service and how they comply to German laws on this
matter ([1], [2]) - and I for one find the questions valid.

All other log statistics are mostly based on nice URLs (e.g. awstats), so the
question remains I suppose.

Re: generics

Hi,


i agree that its no big deal, i am just trying to figure out some sort
of guidelines for when we do include the type and when we dont. if we
say that we only include the type when the component uses its model
then neither Link nor Form qualify. in fact neither will ListItem.
only things like ListView and FormComponents will qualify.


I'd actually prefer untyped Link and Form, since I also don't use Models on them 
directly most of the time. But other's may have a different style and always use 
Models...

i was of the generify component and model mind while i was

some of the ugliness and now my mind is almost changed.


yep, day to day usage is the main point.

i came to that conclusion as well when i was trying to migrate somewhat 
non-trivial use of wicket to 1.4 base. the standard components like link et al 
aren't the real problem (though it doesn't look pretty), it gets complicated 
when you're using non-trivial components (like datatable and their dependents) 
where the type on the component gets in your way.

Re: configurable component

2008-06-03 Thread Jan Kriesten


hi stefan,


Is there a way to configure the wicket components using the html markup?

I would like to do something like this:

table
tr wicket:id=group1
...
/tr
tr wicket:id=group2 wicket:component=parent=group1
...
/tr
tr wicket:id=group3 wicket:component=parent=group2
...
/tr
/table

The reason for this is that I want to create tables with collapsible
rows (if group1 is collapsed then group1 and group2 are not shown)


since you would have to add specific components 'group2' and 'group3' from 
within java, anyway, you can add 'isVisible' logic there, not?

Hi Gabor,


I was thinking about using the existing wicket 1.4 API from scala, if
that's any more comfortable.


I tried to migrate a bigger project from 1.3 to 1.4 api - and it isn't really 
more comfortable. It's easier to do one or two casts than trying to conform the 
generics Component structure. Especially since there are cases with 1.4 generics 
(like StringResourceModel) which sometimes aren't recognized as IModelString 
(which of course is more a Scala than a Wicket problem)...

IModel but not components. I care more about what generifying can do
for API clarity (declaring a component to only accept certain models
for instance) than static type checking.



2) How strongly do you feel about your choice above?
   [X] I might rethink upgrading if my choice doesn't win.

Hi,


I'm not sure I like where this discussion is going. I don't see anyone
having any particular objections against current state.


@matej_k:

ugh - you should count again... if I counted right, most of the responses yet 
prefer 'Component' /not/ being touched by generics.


 +1, I agree.  I think this discussion might be counter-productive if
 folks who aren't using the generified versions are voting.

@jwcarman:

There is an issue with generics on components which is leading into a big mess - 
and as far as I can see, many objections are especially on that topic! It might 
not be Wicket's fault, though, it might be a language problem (i.e. Java's to 
blame).


But IMHO putting generics on Component is a bad design, since it per se touches 
all of Wicket's Components without urgent need. Boilerplate over and over. If I 
look at my components and libraries (and yes, i have tried out 1.4!) - I have at 
most 30% of my components containing a Model!


Best regards, --- Jan.

Hi Matej,


Question is, how many of those users actually use generified wicket on
day-to-day basis.


well, I did, and it really doesn't looked nice (and it doesn't work as it should 
in the end, but that's another story).


The main point is (repeatedly) ignored by the people who are 'pro' generics:

Why do you have to put generics on Components, when need is only in a fraction 
of cases?


Discussing the possibility of Void is somewhat an obscure workaround. It's 
just boilerplate in more than 70% (of my cases), and this boilerplate gets 
repeated over and over again with each assignment.



Best regards, --- Jan.

Hi Sebastiaan,

I *really* would like to see a clarification of this statement. In 
Wicket the component and model are very tightly coupled.


that's part of the problem, agreed.

What is a *good 
design* alternative, where only IModel is generified? getModelObject() 
returns Object? getModel returns IModel??


IMHO the practical solution would be to leave generics from components and have 
getModelObject return Object, yes. On certain components (ListView e.g.), those 
methods may be overridden by more concrete implementations.

Hi Sebastian,

What about getModel()? If componennt is not generified I'm really 
wondering if the there is any benefit to generics at all... (I do really 
think it will spawn lots of questions on the list as well).


what's the problem with getModel? If you specialize on a certain Component, you 
can implement T getModel() ?

Hi William,


If you use more than one type of model for a given component I would
hardly say that it is only a fraction of the time. Do you use only one
type of model on all your components? :o)


read again - I said 70% of my components don't have a Model...


The use of Void is not an obscure workaround. Why do you think they have
it? I think it's intent is very clear if you understand what void
represents. The key point is that Java generics are not runtime generics
;o)


See above, the point is having Void in there for especially nothing to gain - 
Just make reading harder and each assignment even longer...

hi william,


Wouldn't that infer that the component has to have generics, or am I
missing something here?


you miss something...

getModel/getModelObject would have to be non-final and overriden by the 
specialized component (return types are covariant, so you can override object 
with something more specific).

2008-06-02 Thread Jan Kriesten


hi sebastiaan,

You could use Java's covariant return types to override getModel() to 
return a specific type. Which would mean that you would need to subclass 
to simulate generics (with a new subclass for each type).


not really, you can do generify your components from a certain level and 
wouldn't have to subclass for each type. that way you could require 
formcomponents to have generics on them, without the whole component tree 
generified.


but i guess this would also lead to many questions why this and not that...

i'd prefer living with have to cast when it comes to getModel/getModelObject...

The second is almost certainly worth doing. That said, I use PropertyModel
more often than anything else, and that doesn't allow you to make any

Re: (Class? extends Page?) casting troubles

2008-05-22 Thread Jan Kriesten


Hi Johan,


I thing that the example below is exactly the thing that generics are pretty
good:

populateItem(ListItemPerson item) {
   add(new LinkPerson(edit, item.getModel()) {
   public void onClick() {
   setResponsePage(new EditPage(getModelObject()));
   }
   });

(and EditPage is by itself already generified to Person)


well, just that the LinkPerson is IMHO redundant and unnecessary(just dropped 
a note to Martijn, but since you brought that up...)


populateItem(final ListItemPerson item) {
item.add(new Link(edit) {
public void onClick() {
setResponsePage(new EditPage(item.getModelObject()));
}
});

So, it might have sense with ListItem, but not necissarily with Link...

Regards, --- Jan.

Re: (Class? extends Page?) casting troubles

2008-05-22 Thread Jan Kriesten


Hi Johan,


But i really dont think that Person in link is redundant why is it?


the point was, that in this case Link simply doesn't need to have given a model 
at all, since you can access the surrounding final vars (you can access the item 
in onClick):



populateItem(final ListItemPerson item) {
   item.add(new Link(edit) {
   public void onClick() {
   setResponsePage(new EditPage(item.getModelObject()));
   }
   });


What else could you do/access in Link what is not possible with this approach?

2008-05-22 Thread Jan Kriesten


Hi Johan,


ahh yes thats true i overlooked your changes..
then yes currently you have to do new LinkVoid (to get rid of the
warnings)


there are quite annoying many cases of this kind, where you really just don't 
need to add models to components and have to boilerplate these with Void or 
anything else.


So, I can really understand and support Martijns objections to have Component 
generified just for the sake of it.


If it's to clearify the API - make those cases generic or have them implement a 
different IModel (like ListModel e.g.).


Best regards, --- Jan.

hi sebastiaan,

I'm very much against using generics to do something other from what 
generics where meant to do (i.e., type safety).


i'm all in when you're talking about type safety. having compile-time checks on 
the types is a time-saver during development.


with wicket generics it's just that the time-saver get's in it's own way, i.e. 
bringing in so much boilerplate, that coding is getting harder to do right 
(besides from source readability).

hi johan,


But if you have a lot of LinkVoid for you cases
then make 1 simple subclass of Link


so anyone make your own wrapper to get readable sources again? let me think: how 
many webmarkupcontainer, link, page etc. classes do i use with void?


i don't think that's a serious option.

Hi Doug,

 The bottom line was that the work didn't take that long and in the end I
 feel my code is more readable and type-safe.

I have tried 4 times to convert my 1.3 codebase to 1.4 - and failed 4 times. All 
in all I spent 3 days and just reverted it.


There are API changes thru generics, which just break the way my app works.

Trying to code tables with PropertyColumns and IColumns just isn't readable any 
more due to having to cast (which before wasn't necessary)...


And the many Void aren't making it any better of course!

Hi,


IModel getModel()
Object getModelObject()
I can live with having these methods not being generified.


for my own cases, generics have been also been more pain- than helpful with 
Wicket.

I don't see any _real_ advantage in having all components needing a type just 
for the sake of typing IModel.


Isn't there an alternative approach? I'd suggest moving to scala - but that's no 
 real option I suppose... ;-) Else one could just externalize the Model 
handling out of Component into a Trait which could be generified. For Java 
actually I have no idea how that could be accomplished for Wicket...

Re: Why Localizer Retained so many heapsize?

hi johan,


I will also open up Localizer api a bit more so that you can override the
cache that is used:


please make sure, that you also remove the direct access on the cache to check 
if it contains a certain key:


// Value not found are cached as well (value = null)
if ((cacheKey != null)  cache.containsKey(cacheKey))

hi johan,


why?
we just have a protected factory method now for a cache implementation that
must be a map.


if you open up the api to change the implementation of the cache - there are 
other implementations than map... why limit it to map? (actually, I don't really 
understand the cache.containsKey(cacheKey) at all since it could just be checked 
for null when getting the value)...
