thanks, martijn, i got it now and without a .war file as well.

the servlet api is truly a twisty maze of semi-meaningless terminology.

did you configure your servletcontexthandlerfiltercontextdispatchingfactory
today?  :)

Re: dependencies

2016-10-07 Thread Jonathan Locke
so the quick start is somewhat helpful because it definitely works, but the
way it works is pretty confusing to me. the code below from the quick start
was not on any of the documentation pages i was able to google up and it
appears (maybe) to be necessary to get web sockets working? what i'd LIKE
to do is start jetty using only the programmatic API (with no XML
configuration at all), but i'm beginning to wonder if that's even possible
based on the quick start example. how do you do what the code below does
without a WebAppContext? the other examples i was working from until i
looked at the quick start were simply installing a JavaxWebSocketFilter
instance as a filter. but apparently that's not enough to get a connection
going and now i'm wondering if this endpoint config isn't the missing
ingredient.

final ServerContainer serverContainer =
WebSocketServerContainerInitializer.configureContext(bb);

serverContainer.addEndpoint(new WicketServerEndpointConfig());

Re: dependencies

2016-10-06 Thread Jonathan Locke
i don't think this is probably a bug in wicket web sockets, but i was
wondering if you had any hints how to debug this?

one thing i've noticed is that acceptWebSocket always returns false in
AbstractUpgradeFilter because there is no "Upgrade" header set.

if (!headerContainsToken(req, "Upgrade", "websocket"))

{

return false;<--- always returns false

}

this seems bad. does that help narrow it down at all?

Re: dependencies

2016-10-06 Thread Jonathan Locke
btw, one other thing... a small contribution... it might be nice in wicket
8 or 9 to add a class like the one below (i might have commit rights, but
i'm not part of the dev process anymore, so just posting it here). you can
store a WebSocketConnection in your page when you get a call to onConnect
(if i ever do! :)) and also pass it off to a background process that will
eventually call sendToClient(). it could probably be cleaned up or extended
and it probably needs to be debated on the dev list, but i find this a bit
easier to use and think about and it avoids making the user aware of the
underlying application, session and socket key. i'd say maybe just pass
this to onConnect() instead of ConnectedMessage.

public class WebSocketConnection implements Serializable {


private static final long serialVersionUID = -602379112168193015L;


private final String applicationKey;

private final String sessionIdentifier;

private final IKey key;


public WebSocketConnection(final ConnectedMessage message) {

this.applicationKey = message.getApplication().getApplicationKey();

this.sessionIdentifier = message.getSessionId();

this.key = message.getKey();

}


@Override

public boolean equals(final Object object) {

if (object instanceof WebSocketConnection) {

final WebSocketConnection that = (WebSocketConnection) object;

return this.applicationKey.equals(that.applicationKey)

&& this.sessionIdentifier.equals(that.sessionIdentifier)
&& this.key.equals(that.key);

}

return false;

}


@Override

public int hashCode() {

return Objects.hash(this.applicationKey, this.sessionIdentifier,
this.key);

}


public void sendToClient(final String message) {

final IWebSocketConnectionRegistry registry = new
SimpleWebSocketConnectionRegistry();

final IWebSocketConnection connection =

registry.getConnection(Application.get(this.applicationKey),
this.sessionIdentifier, this.key);

if (connection != null && connection.isOpen()) {

try {

connection.sendMessage(message);

} catch (final IOException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

}

}

}


@Override

public String toString() {

return this.applicationKey + "-" + this.sessionIdentifier + "-" +
this.key;

}

}

it appears i never get a WebSocketPayload in onEvent. i checked in
WebSocketBehavior.renderHead and it's getting in there and rendering JS to
set up the web socket, but it never gets to onConnect.

add(new WebSocketBehavior() {


private static final long serialVersionUID =
5630063441999050198L;


@Override

protected void onConnect(final ConnectedMessage message) {

View.this.webSocketConnection = new WebSocketConnection(
message);   <<<<<<<-- never gets here

logger.log(new Information("Connected " + View.this.
webSocketConnection));

}

});

ideas?

ajax timer dying

2016-10-03 Thread Jonathan Locke
hello all,

been a while! i don't quite understand the parameters of this issue i'm
running into yet, but i have an AbstractAjaxTimerBehavior that i'm adding
to my page in order to handle updates from asynchronous queries. it works
great except that *every once in a while* the timer dies and there are no
more calls to the timer behavior. has anyone run into this kind of thing?
there's no javascript error on the console, so it's not that. my memory is
foggy on wicket ajax... is there maybe some special debugging magic i could
turn on to figure this out? is there any way to ensure that the timer never
dies?

thanks,

wicket 6 ajax integration

2015-07-29 Thread Jonathan Locke

hello all!

having some trouble with the new wicket 6 ajax. it looks much better but i
think i'm confused.

i'm trying to use AbstractDefaultAjaxBehavior to call back from JS to the
server side and for some reason the behavior's renderHead() method isn't
even being called. is there something i need to do besides adding the
behavior to my panel to get it to render?

thanks,

 jon

New Web Site

2012-08-25 Thread Jonathan Locke
Hello Wicketeers!

It's been a long while since I checked in, but I'm glad to see Wicket is
still going strong!

I'm posting because Steve Jobs recently trashed my iWeb site from beyond the
grave and so I have migrated some of that content to WordPress, where I'm
hoping to do a bit of blogging on coding once again (mainly things related
to Java design, but perhaps some Wicket posts now and then). Here is the URL
to my brand new site:

http://codeact.wordpress.com

If there are links on the Apache Wicket site to my old site (or other sites
out there), they are definitely broken and an update would be hugely
appreciated.

Best,

Jon

Re: Apache Wicket is a Flawed Framework

2011-11-20 Thread Jonathan Locke
Why this business about component nesting keeps coming up is really beyond
me. If you're running into non-trivial problems with keeping component
nesting in sync, you really need to stop what you're doing and back up a
step or two because you're definitely looking through the wrong end of the
Wicket telescope. If you've got some giant page or panel or form with piles
of nested anonymous classes defining a multi-level hierarchy, you're pretty
much headed off into the woods. 

To tap Wicket's OO power you MUST start getting into the habit of breaking
things up into appropriate conceptual pieces. Either break them up into
reusable panels and/or break them up using these crazy things we have in
Java called packages, classes and methods. 

If I had to paraphrase my book on software design in a sentence, I'd say
this: if you break the problem down right, it will solve itself. Java and
Wicket provide more than enough to break your problem down into simple
pieces so the solution just falls out, without huge complexity all in one
place.

The real work of software design is all about beating complexity and it has
little to do with the pros and cons of any specific technology. It's ALL
ABOUT how you conceptualize and then divide and conquer your problem. The
rest is a bunch of boring mechanics.

Re: Apache Wicket is a Flawed Framework

2011-11-18 Thread Jonathan Locke
Needless to say, I don't particularly agree with most of the criticisms
listed. 

And for the right job, Java isn't half as bad as you seem to think. I'd say
the trouble is Java vs. the JDK (and other libraries). While Java itself is
still reasonably cool, there is a lot of real crap out there. And there's
plenty in the JDK! But if you're determined to program well, you can wrap
and hide the majority of this crap quite excellently in Java. What you're
left with is a screaming fast server-side programming language with more
support in terms of platforms and functionality than anything in history.
While I'd love to see a Scala where I can read 90% of the source code out
there at a glance like I can with Java, I'll stick with Java (at least on
the server side) for now.

Given that you hate Wicket and Java (and have a LOT of energy for that given
the length of your post), why don't you switch jobs? You sound unhappy with
your gig. And although the economy is down, software is actually quite hot
and there are a lot of jobs for people that just want to hack on loosely
typed UI scripts. Heck, I'm getting emails from headhunters almost daily.
I'd say life is too short to lump it. If Wicket doesn't suit you, switch
frameworks. If it's required at work and that makes you hate your job,
switch jobs.

In Wicket 1.5, the new mountPackage() in combination with wicket:link doesn't

Thanks for the thoughts!

This is a bit strange. Not only is it not working, but when I add that
setAutomaticLinking to my init, it causes further errors... it's apparently
trying to resolve package.style.css (no class name)...

It's possible it's my fault somehow. I'll debug in the morning, but any
ideas are welcome in the meantime!

Re: Wicket philosophy, modelObject isVisible, isEnabled, CSS

one other possibility you didn't mention is to nest or layer models. you
could use an attribute modifier with a view-adapting model that wraps the
data model to provide translation from a pure data model into a value
appropriate for the view layer. this would preserve abstraction better. make
sense?

I don't think we even have an option to order servers with fewer than 8 cores
and 16GB of RAM at my day job. I think our minimum spec could easily handle
twice that load (20K sessions) on a single box. And the web tier scales out
very easily. Want more sessions, buy more boxes. I would not be worrying

Re: My New Book: Now in Dead Tree Format

Sorry, no. I think the price is pretty reasonable. Especially given the
cost/benefit relative to your typical software industry book. You can barely
buy two lattes for the price of my e-book here in Seattle and the profit off
a copy is about enough to buy me a beer, which I know you want to do!!  :)

Of course if you'd prefer, I could throw in a couple hundred pages of
repetitive, unreadable dreck and add a hundred pages of code listings so the
book /looks/ like it has a lot of value and then jack the price of the
paperback up to say $49.99. Then it would make sense to give you the e-book
for free.

Re: My New Book: Now in Dead Tree Format

2010-10-18 Thread Jonathan Locke

I very much appreciate the sentiment, but the book stands on its own and
nobody owes me more than thanks for starting Wicket. Besides, it would be
a slight to certain core developers (they know who they are) who have at
this point put in more time than me. If you want to thank the Wicket team,
submit bug fixes, help with documentation, get other people to use Wicket,
buy some Wicket gear (proceeds to Apache) or make donations to the Apache
Foundation. 

If, on the other hand, you want to get a glimpse inside my head so that you
understand the design process I used to create Wicket, buy the book. As far
as Wicket itself goes, I think a better understanding of my process may
improve your understanding and application of Wicket.

My New Book: Now in Dead Tree Format

2010-10-17 Thread Jonathan Locke

For those of you who were grumbling about not having a Kindle, now you have
no excuse :)

http://www.amazon.com/Coding-Software-Process-Jonathan-Locke/dp/0615404820/

Would like to hear feedback from readers, of course. Also if you enjoy it
and can make time, please blog it, rate it on Amazon or pass on the word.
It's a quick easy read, but also very terse and dense since I've tried to
shrink the most interesting things I've got to say about software into
roughly 70 pages... so it may stand up to reading more than once. And even
if you've got a lot of experience and feel like you've heard it all, it
still may get you thinking in a new way or put things you already know in a
different light. 

Enjoy!

Jonathan

Coding - On Software Design Process

2010-09-30 Thread Jonathan Locke

Hello Wicketeers!

I recently finished writing a short book (less than 70 pages) on software 
design process. I wrote this book because I wanted a place to put down some of 
the most interesting ideas and things I've learned about software design over 
the years that have been too long for everyday conversations and emails. If you 
have worked with me or are familiar with my work through Wicket, you will find 
a lot of things that feel familiar in this book and it may shed some light on 
some aspects of Wicket's design for you. It's also my hope that it will help 
people who read it carefully to improve their software design process. You can 
get it for Kindle using the link below (or better yet, get your pointy-haired 
boss to get it for you) or if you prefer dead trees, there will be a paperback 
available on Amazon in a few days. As I say in the introduction, this book is a 
conversation starter, so I'd be very interested to hear thoughts and reactions 
from readers. Enjoy!

http://www.amazon.com/Coding-Software-Design-Process-ebook/dp/B0042X99SA

Best,

 Jon

Re: Should Duration be deprecated?

TimeUnit is icky and storing time values in primitive types is a bad idea.

 I was wondering why would wicket need Duration class as long as java

 this

yup.  ibm is into it.

i also think it's telling that wicket is a global phenomenon at this
point... there are books on wicket in english (3), german (2), japanese (1)
and chinese (1).  and these are independent books, not localizations of one
book.

p.s. if your group needs advice, i occasionally do architectural consulting

Re: Asynchronous construction of page

2010-01-04 Thread Jonathan Locke


i know i'm jumping into this in the middle and maybe someone already
proposed this or it's not a good idea for some reason that's not immediately
obvious, but i wonder if we could do some lock splitting here (in wicket
1.5?) so that the coarse grained page lock is replaced with a locking system
for component subtrees.  then multiple ajax updates of different screen
areas could happen simultaneously. i believe this could be implemented
fairly easily with a Component.getLock() method that chains up the hierarchy
looking for locks. the default page lock would be at the top and subtrees
that got locked by ajax updates would add new lock objects via Component
metadata.  of course the page lock would have to be used to add that
metadata to prevent a race condition, but it seems like it would work.  then
again, i'm not intimately familiar with our ajax implementation these days.

Re: Asynchronous construction of page

2010-01-04 Thread Jonathan Locke


true, but i think the component tree would be locked, not the models.
and just to play devil's advocate... such a feature could be off by default
and in development mode it could do a complete check of the tree for root
model objects being used outside the locked subtree... such that it would 
be invalid to have a fine-grained lock on a subtree with a model being 
accessed by components outside that subtree.  i'm not saying this is a great
idea, just trying to clarify this thinking-out-loud idea...


igor.vaynberg wrote:
 
 this is still highly error prone. locking a component subtree is not
 always enough. usually component subtrees share a model object that is
 somewhere higher up, so it is the component that owns the root model
 object that needs to be locked. but, once you throw in model chaining
 into the mix it becomes not so easy to figure out which component
 should actually own the root lock.

 Hi!
 
 Here is a way to render panel markup to string.
 
 It is a bit of a tweak, I admit, but what can you do.
 
 1. Assume you have components on your page, ready to be rendered.
 
 2. In onBeforeRender, quickly switch one of your existing components
 to another that you want to render into a string
 
 3. Let your special component render into a string.
 
 4. Restore back to the original component that was supposed to be
 rendered onto the web page.
 
 5. It seems to work ok at least if your component is a panel.
 
 Example code:
 
 ---8
 
 somewhere in your page hierarchy that is actually rendered
 
 /**
* @see org.apache.wicket.Page#onBeforeRender()
*/
   @Override
   protected void onBeforeRender() {
 System.out.println(\n-\n
 + MarkupUtils.renderToString(loginForm, new
 IntroductionPanel(loginForm.getId(;
 super.onBeforeRender();
   }
 
 ---8
 
 MarkupUtils.public static String renderToString(final Component
 parentDonorComponent, final Component component) {
 if (!component.getId().equals(parentDonorComponent.getId())) {
   throw new IllegalStateException(Component will try to
 substitute parentDonorComponent to render. Donor and string render
 Component id's must be equal.);
 }
 
 final Response originalResponse = RequestCycle.get().getResponse();
 StringResponse stringResponse = new StringResponse();
 RequestCycle.get().setResponse(stringResponse);
 MarkupContainer parentComponent = parentDonorComponent.getParent();
 parentComponent.remove(parentDonorComponent);
 
 try {
   parentComponent.add(component);
 
   try {
 component.prepareForRender();
 component.renderComponent();
   } catch (RuntimeException e) {
 component.afterRender();
 throw e;
   }
 } finally {
   // Restore original component
   parentComponent.replace(parentDonorComponent);
   // Restore original response
   RequestCycle.get().setResponse(originalResponse);
 }
 
 return stringResponse.toString();
   }

Re: Absolute static file references

it's pure common sense.

don't prematurely optimize is just a version of don't fix what ain't

 Thanks Igor.
 
 We're not having performance issues. I'm just mapping what we

 do to Wicket. I did come across
 
 CSSPackageResource.getHeaderContribution(style/default/main.css));
 
 which seems to do exactly what I was looking for.
 
 Back to your point, I guess I understood that Wicket 'could' manage
 resources - I'm just not sure when it 'should' manage them. I generally
 consider it a best practice to let the server handle static CSS and
 potentially huge js and img files but it sounds like you're suggesting
 start by managing the resources within Wicket and wait until performance
 issues actually start popping up and then consider externalizing them.
 What's nice to see is that Wicket appears to handle either approach pretty
 well.
 
 Also, ContextImage hit the nail on the head. Thanks for the suggestion

 have you actually hit a scalability problem?

 if you are trying to optimize upfront you can use a less invasive
 technique. all resource urls in wicekt are served under the
 /resources/ virtual folder. you can enable the setting where wicket
 will append a last-modified date to the end of each resource url, and
 then have an apache-side cache to cache and serve everything under
 /resources/.

 alternatively see how ContextImage works if you want to serve your own
 stuff out of webapp folder.

  Have another question about serving up CSS (JS, img, etc) files
 statically:
 
  a) I'd like to have the option to serve my CSS up statically via an
 apache
  proxy. I'd also like to avoid serving CSS requests up via the wicket
 filter
  - even if served up by Jetty - as I think it will scale just a bit
 better
  ...
  b) With my current URL mounts, many pages with different base URLs
 refer
 to
  the same CSS file. Consequently, a relative URL for the common CSS
 files
 as
  referenced in the master template won't work since the CSS file would
 be
  looked up relative to each different URL mount point.
 
  Does that makes sense? So, I would like to create a simple, absolute
  reference mechanism for my static CSS, image or other files (without
  hardcoding).
 
  I'm not as knowledgeable about the way that components are mapped to
 wicket
  tags, how to add my own tags or even how to create my own components
 (other
  than Panels of course). Does the approach below adhere to the wicket
 way?
  It feels a bit manual ... and I'm not fond of the static WEB_CONTEXT
  assignment - but I don't see an elegant/efficient way to get it from
 within
  the Page or the AbstractBehavior on a per request basis.
 
  Just looking for a bit of advice.
 
  Does the WIKI have some detailed docs that really get into the nitty
 gritty
  of low-level component and tag design? IE: Details of ComponentTag,
  MarkupElement, WicketTag,
 
  On the other hand, is there any strong advice to put custom CSS, image
 and
  JS files in the classpath and reference ala wicket or is my approach
  perfectly reasonable here. An alternate goal of mine to keep custom
  components/solutions to a minimum.
 
  Thanks in advance,

Re: [WIKI] Websites based on Wicket page presentation

2009-10-13 Thread Jonathan Locke


shouldn't it be one of igor's famous tables with the sort headers?
then we wouldn't need to argue over how to order it.


jWeekend wrote:
 
 I've been having some very brief communication with Ralf Eichinger who
 has been making a valuable contribution over the last few weeks by
 starting to improve documentation on the Wiki, especially with a view
 to help people evaluating Wicket get a fairer appreciation of it,
 who's using it and what they are doing with it.
 
 Now obviously it is extremely valuable for newcomers to have a page
 like our Websites based on Wicket [1] to get a feel for who's 
 doing what with Wicket already. And, for apps built on Wicket, like 
 Leg Up and all those other Wicket sites, it is nice to have a 
 central place to put a link on  that others may come across and 
 therefore be aware it's out there, and enjoy visiting/using it. 
 It's also encouraging to see this list of apps and sites grows, 
 albeit steadily (I recommend anyone with a public Wicket app to 
 mention it there, it can only do good for all concerned, AFAICS). 
 All the same, there are increasingly more sophisticated and 
 impressive sites highlighting the strength and depth of the 
 community/developers and what magic can be weaved using Wicket
 (whilst developers amongst us also know that in Wicket such magic 
 is possible at the same time as keeping your application design 
 and code neat, tidy, maintainable and extensible and even rather 
 pleasant to work with).
 
 One question that came up is whether the pages listed by URL there 
 should be ordered alphabetically or chronologically.
 
 For me, chronological (newest at top, as had been the case originally)
 makes much more sense because when I look at the site, I can see how
 things have evolved, quickly identify what's new since I last looked
 and also answer questions like what were the first public Wicket
 sites listed here?. This is also a much more robust sorting scheme 
 (people _like_ to add their shiny new apps/sites to the top of the 
 list!) and with no arbitrary rules there's not such a likelihood of 
 breaking the sort order every time anyone adds their site (eg should 
 http://www.eropuit.nl go before or after fabulously40.com), as it was
 when I went in to add LegUp.
  
 Chronological ordering is a scheme that was always quite naturally 
 maintained and therefore required no further maintenance to keep 
 right. What's more, I don't see what the benefit of an artificial 
 sort ordering like alphabetically ordered by URL would be in this 
 context as I doubt anyone looking at the page is not familiar with 
 Ctrl+F if they come looking for some specific page/site/URL.
 
 I doubt anyone else has ever been worried about this, but if 
 anyone else has a view on it I'd be pleased to know about 
 it and if there are some good reasons for alphabetically 
 ordering too the list that I have missed I can stop messing up
 Ralf's order!

We are doing a lot of back-end server work in Java, but we would  
really prefer someone with solid Wicket experience for a variety of  
reasons.
The team is me and one other guy, so there would be three coders after

Re: AW: How to avoid code duplication on forms?

the advantage to subclassing is that you're working better with the type
system whereas static pulls you out of the object world and should be used
with great caution.  for example, subclassing enables more subclassing and
therefore more reusability. static factory methods cannot be specialized.  i
also feel it's more intuitive to users for something like this. if you want
to see all the textfields on your project and you subclass textfield, you
can bring up textfield and hit F4 in eclipse and see the class hierarchy.
static factory methods are a bit more hidden to quick inspection. i like
static factory methods for things like units (Distance.meters(...) versus
Distance.feet(...)) or if you want to vary the subclass returned.

one improvement i'd make:

   public class EmailField extends TextField

and write an EmailConverter.  another reason subclassing is best.

Re: Turning off ModificationWatcher

2009-04-09 Thread Jonathan Locke


Oh, it's MUCH worse than even that. Every single component constructed by
your application will get a complete Java stack trace attached to it at the
point of construction. Not only does that seriously damage your performance,
but this stack trace also takes up space! This is why we warn you about not
deploying in development mode on startup.

2009-04-01 Thread Jonathan Locke


well, i'd be the first to admit i don't know either of these two products
deeply, but for the kinds of applications i have for web services, i found
jersey to have really easy, transparent support for request parameter
processing. you just annotate some parameters, create a jaxb schema and add
an @Path attribute and you've pretty much got a web service. although it
looks like a nice architecture that sticks to REST terminology, i at least
couldn't find how restlet made some of this grunt work easy (but then maybe
i missed that somehow).

Re: How can I share text resources with multiple web applications?

2009-03-18 Thread Jonathan Locke


yes, but wicket takes a different view than maven on resources in general.
they are always closest to the component they belong to. it's a form of
encapsulation. so maybe it's wrong from maven's point of view, but putting
them in src/main/resources would be wrong from wicket's point of view. the
archetype should remain unchanged.

Re: How can I share text resources with multiple web applications?

2009-03-18 Thread Jonathan Locke


I'm definitely stretching this a little, but I also believe it to be true...

Resource files are, in my mind, encapsulated by the package that they
belong to. You should be able to *look* at a package and see a component
with all its related resources. You should be able to right click on a
component's folder and copy that folder and know that you have the whole
package. I feel it's not intuitive for resources to be anywhere other than
in the package they belong to. 

Anyway, putting them in a separate directory hierarchy (even if they wind up
in the same Java packaging structure when you build the JAR) breaks this
idea of encapsulation. In general, things should always be as private/local
as possible. With resources, this is best accomplished by keeping them in

It seems that everyone who encounters Wicket for the first time goes through
a period when they think this is wrongheaded... until they almost invariably
change their minds about it. It definitely requires a small mind shift.

 they are always closest to the component they belong to. it's a form of

Re: What's your take on handling markup in properties, html, wicket

2009-02-13 Thread Jonathan Locke


Ideally the markup should stay in the markup file and the text in that
markup that needs to be localized would be localized via wicket:message and
a properties file. In cases like below, you would break the text into
properties-localized hunks and into panels with multiple markup localization
files where markup is truly being localized (you have little other choice if
the styling needs to be localized). How that's split up is up to you. In the
example you gave, maybe:

boldwicket:message key=welcome//boldbrbrwicket:messsage
key=longText/
div wicket:id=bulletPanel/

welcome=Welcome to our company
longText=Here is some long text

BulletPanel.html_en
wicket:panel
ullisome [BOLD]text[/BOLD]/liliother text/li/ul
/wicket:panel

i would generally try to avoid putting much markup in properties files since
that's a surprising use of properties files.


Mathias P.W Nilsson wrote:
 
 Hi,
 
 Just wondering how this should be handled without DRY.
 
 In many scenarios we have multiple languages that should have the same
 markup but different text. This could be handled by using variation and
 put every language in an own html file like myWicketPage_style_en.html.
 
 However, this is not the optimal way and I don't think variation is made
 for this either. It would be very annoing having 14 different html files
 if we have 14 different languages that we should support. 
 
 Sometimes the languages should look different ( not the same look.
 Different positioning of elements ) and here we could use variation. As
 far as I'm concerned this is not the right way of handling look and feel.
 Different css should be used instead and then place position, coloring of
 the markup in a css. The html file should be the same and the css should
 handle the layout.  Take a look at  http://www.csszengarden.com/
 http://www.csszengarden.com/ 
 
 Every time I'm dealing with multiple languages the user wants bold,
 italic, color in the text. Many times a list will appear just containing
 text. ( Nothing to do with extracting data from database and let wicket
 handle it ) This could be added in a properties file but then we would
 have bold tags, italic and style tags in the properties file. If something
 should change we need to go thru 14 properties files to change the markup
 in the properties.
 
 Let's say we have the following text in many different languages. Some
 markup is changed so you know what I mean.
 
 boldWelcome to our company/boldbrbrHere is some long
 text.ullisome [BOLD]text[/BOLD]/liliother text/li/ul
 
 Now imaging this text to be very long.
 
 Now, my question is this. How do you handle tagged markup for different
 languages without repeating markup tags.
 
 * Variation and the text in the html file.
 * different properties file with markup in it
 * Other technique?

Re: Feedback Next To Component

2009-02-11 Thread Jonathan Locke


behaviors aren't really designed to work like components and render markup
like that, so it's a bit weird... what if you want to go extend or change
the markup for the feedback error? it's now embedded in a bunch of code.


walnutmon wrote:
 
 In order to add feedback next to the component I used a behavior.  I had
 some code from Igor which got me on the right track, although I was unable
 to actually get it to work the same way, I simplified it down to the
 following code:
 
 AbstractBehavior printMessagesNextToComponent = new AbstractBehavior()
   {
 
   @Override
   public void onRendered(Component component)
   {
   super.onRendered(component);
   FeedbackMessage message = 
 component.getFeedbackMessage();
   if (message != null)
   {
   final Response out = component.getResponse();
   out.write();
   out.write(message.getMessage().toString());
   out.write();
   }
   }
   };
 
 It almost seems too simple, I've tried it and with limited testing it
 seems to work just fine, although there are some odd behaviors with
 Ajax... does anyone have any comments, better solutions, or possible
 breaking conditions that I should check out?

Re: Wicket stuff core, archetypes?

2009-02-09 Thread Jonathan Locke


using the maven deps is fine.  the purpose i had in mind for the
requirements and libraries nodes was just to enable display of the
component's requirements on a page about the component... (whether it's
built with maven or not).  but using the maven deps would be more detailed
and more consistent... and most wicket components will be mavenized.


francisco treacy-2 wrote:
 
 coincidentally, i started working on that again and i was about to
 contact you to suggest a draft.
 
 my perspective are (for the moment) data that is to be mapped to
 fields currently supported in wicket hub. i put it in a jar metadata
 format.
 
 Site-URL: (maps to website url)
 License-Name: (maps to license)
 Wicket-Versions: (maps to supported wicket versions)
 Search-Keywords: (maps to topics)
 Publish-Date: (maps to latest publish date)
 Author: (maps to author)
 
 i uploaded a new version that has a minimal infrastructure (a running
 batch) to support pinging known components. basically it's yet to be
 put together (the download, unzip, parse metadata), but it's all
 there.
 
 regarding your metadata proposal, i think it's really fine. also, the
 xml format makes sense. however i'm not 100% convinced about
 
 requirements
   library name=wicket version=1.3/
   library name=YUI version=4.0/
 /requirements
 
 ... cause it's duplicating maven functionality, and i'm  pretty sure
 maven handles it better. i know that our components are not
 necessarily mavenized, but even then we should pay particular
 attention to this one.
 
 as i said, i'm ready to get this done on my side - it would be nice if
 somebody else could work on a maven plugin or other post-install step
 to generate this metadata within jars.

 parsing the metadata would be done after you download the artifact that
 you
 found.

 okay, fair enough. i have some doubts though:

 1. in this scenario, downloading every artifact on earth just to open
 it and see if there's some wicket info inside is... impossible.

 2.
 you just need to find the artifact with nexus.

 in your original blog post you say Basically, I'd like to see us
 crawl maven repos looking for JAR'ed Wicket components with a
 particular set of meta-data
 i don't see how nexus can help there. let's put another example:

 i create a mootools integration component, i mavenize it with package
 name com.mymootools.wicket and publish it in central repo.  how does
 nexus help in finding that, if it doesn't know anything about
 META-INF/*.xml?

 ... *unless* you're planning people to submit their jar urls to
 wickethub. that would be a whole other story. but then again, nexus
 would be useless as we will already have the urls to components (no
 need to crawl or search - only to download the jar, open it up and
 update metadata in wickethub)

 for screenshots and the internal structure of the xml file, we shall
 see later, but i generally agree with you

 The event was quite a success. I hope we refactored some of the JSF

 The interesting thing about this presentation is that it was made with
 Wicket itself. Yes, the presentation is a web application that shows the
 Wicket concepts in action.
 
 You could see the presentation at

Re: Wicket stuff core, archetypes?

2009-01-17 Thread Jonathan Locke

you're certainly free to go in whatever direction you want, but i still like
the idea of a fully decentralized model. there may someday be wicket
components
in central or elsewhere, even outside maven repos (downloadable via HTTP
like
matej's inmethod stuff was for a while)

i also think the nexus indexer is enough. you just need to find the artifact
with nexus. 
parsing the metadata would be done after you download the artifact that you
found. 
at that point you can do anything with it, including extracting URLs or even
embedded
images (might be a nice option for screenshots). 

putting jar metadata in META-INF is much more appropriate in my mind because
it's 
not maven-specific. the idea of a wicket component is not a maven-centric
idea and 
a maven repository is just one way to publish a component. there are
certainly going
to be others.

i do think that it might be a good idea to make the component metadata a
separate
xml file in a subfolder of META-INF instead of putting that info directly in
the existing 
jar properties file.  this is a lot more extensible and would allow multiple
components 
in a single jar and would also uniquely identify a wicket component and be
quite 
searchable with nexus by just looking for:

META-INF/wicket/components.xml   // define components in
this jar (relative reference to metadata files, in this case: 
   //
component1/metadata.xml and component2/metadata.xml)
META-INF/wicket/component1/metadata.xml  // define metadata for
first component
META-INF/wicket/component2/metadata.xml  // metadata for second
component
META-INF/wicket/component2/screenshots/1.jpg// embedded screenshots
for second component
META-INF/wicket/component2/screenshots/2.jpg

at least as i understand it... if not, maybe nexus needs to be extended...

Re: Why you should not override isVisible

2009-01-15 Thread Jonathan Locke


I would be careful not to throw the baby out with the bath water here. The
design decision you're making is push versus pull and implementing isVisible
is often going to be a better design decision because it may be more clear
that visibility state stays consistent for a given problem. If the
performance actually shows up as a hotspot (don't prematurely optimize!),
you can always do some appropriate caching of the value and still have it
pulled.


Erik van Oosten wrote:
 
 In the thread Where to process PageParameters I was requested to 
 explain why I think you should not override isVisible, but rather should 
 call setVisible in onBeforeRender (slide 100 in my presentation 
 http://www.grons.nl/~erik/pub/20081112%20Effective%20Wicket.pdf).
 
 There are 2 reasons, but only the second one is really important.
 
 -1- isVisible is called a lot. It is easily called ten times within 1 
 request
 
 So if you have anything processor intensive going on, it will be a 
 performance hit. Just doing a simple expression is of course no problem.
 (For fun, just set a breakpoint in something like 
 FeedbackPanel#isVisible and request a page that contains one.)
 
 -2- isVisible can make your model be reloaded multiple times within 1 
 request
 
 Consider the following case (pseudo code):
 
   MyPanel(id, personId) {
  super(id, new CompoundPropertyModel(new
 LoadableDetachablePersonModel(personId)));
  add( new Label(address) {
  @Override
  isVisible() {
  return getDefaultModel() != null;
  }
  });
   }
 
 
 The label uses the property 'address' of a person to see if the label 
 should be visible. The person is retrieved by a LoadableDetachableModel 
 subclass (LDM) and then wrapped by a CompoundPropertyModel (CPM).
 
 During the render phase, isVisible will delegate getting the address 
 property to the CPM and this model delegates it to the LDM. LDM will 
 load the person from the database only once (well until it is detached).
 
 At the end of the render phase everything will be detached. But now 
 something weird happens. The problem is that isVisible is called during 
 the detach phase, on the label /after/ the CPM (and therefore also the 
 LDM) are detached. As isVisible retrieves the model from the CPM, and 
 therefore from the LDM, it will trigger a reload of the person inside 
 the LDM.
 
 Now, as visibility is often (if not almost always) determined by a 
 business object (e.g. very often a LDM) I think it makes sense to avoid 
 having to think about the situation described above, and just avoid it 
 all together.
 
 Note: I observed this behavior in Wicket 1.3 (1.3.3 I think). If it 
 works differently now, I would be very glad to withdraw this
 recommendation.
 
 Regards,
  Erik.

not sure. it /ought/ to make sense to cache during the render cycle. but i
have the eerie sense that this came up before, so maybe there's some reason
why it can't be cached? (although even if there are some odd cases where it
can't be, it seems like you could make a workaround for those cases ..)

 expected to change over the course of rendering?
 
 Would a JIRA w/ code be welcome, or is the current behavior required?

 The
 design decision you're making is push versus pull and implementing
 isVisible
 is often going to be a better design decision because it may be more
 clear
 that visibility state stays consistent for a given problem. If the
 performance actually shows up as a hotspot (don't prematurely optimize!),
 you can always do some appropriate caching of the value and still have it
 pulled.

 There are 2 reasons, but only the second one is really important.

 -1- isVisible is called a lot. It is easily called ten times within 1
 request

 So if you have anything processor intensive going on, it will be a
 performance hit. Just doing a simple expression is of course no problem.
 (For fun, just set a breakpoint in something like
 FeedbackPanel#isVisible and request a page that contains one.)

 -2- isVisible can make your model be reloaded multiple times within 1
 request

 Consider the following case (pseudo code):

   MyPanel(id, personId) {
  super(id, new CompoundPropertyModel(new
 LoadableDetachablePersonModel(personId)));
  add( new Label(address) {
  @Override
  isVisible() {
  return getDefaultModel() != null;
  }
  });
   }


 The label uses the property 'address' of a person to see if the label
 should be visible. The person is retrieved by a LoadableDetachableModel
 subclass (LDM) and then wrapped by a CompoundPropertyModel (CPM).

 During the render phase, isVisible will delegate getting the address
 property to the CPM and this model delegates it to the LDM. LDM will
 load the person from the database only once (well until it is detached).

 At the end of the render phase everything will be detached. But now
 something weird happens. The problem is that isVisible is called during
 the detach phase, on the label /after/ the CPM (and therefore also the
 LDM) are detached. As isVisible retrieves the model from the CPM, and
 therefore from the LDM, it will trigger a reload of the person inside
 the LDM.

 Now, as visibility is often (if not almost always) determined by a
 business object (e.g. very often a LDM) I think it makes sense to avoid
 having to think about the situation described above, and just avoid it
 all together.

 Note: I observed this behavior in Wicket 1.3 (1.3.3 I think). If it
 works differently now, I would be very glad to withdraw this
 recommendation.

 Regards,
  Erik.

Re: Why you should not override isVisible

2009-01-15 Thread Jonathan Locke


well yes, it might break existing behavior, that's why i suggested having a
workaround for that. although i would think that well-designed isVisible
methods shouldn't generally have this problem. 

you could always work it the other way and have no caching by default but
allow people who know what they're doing to enable it for an application
with something like
IRequestCycleSettings#setCacheComponentVisibility(boolean).

Re: Why you should not override isVisible

2009-01-15 Thread Jonathan Locke


yeah, for full flexibility, you might just link a method in Component to a
default in IRequestCycleSettings:

boolean getCacheComponentVisibility() { return
getApplication().getRequestCycleSettings().getCacheComponentVisibility(); }

then you can set a default and override for any individual component (or
page).

 This sounds more robust, so long as it can be controlled on a
 per-request basis (i.e., you can configure it for a specific page and
 state).
 
 And don't forget about isEnabled too though it is more rare ;)
