Hi Jonathan, Wicket Tricks. Each trick in the book (lettered from A-Z) demonstrates something that people typically want to do and in the process builds a reusable and educational component. I would prefer to see - Javascript component integration: especially YUI split, resizable pane containing a panel in each pane or another split pane. see: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/resize/grids_resize.html - inmethod grid usage or (better if basic YUI is already integrated): YUI datatable control http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/datatable/dt_complex.html (resizabel columns, sorting, selection with cursors, ...!!!) Would be a great step for Wicket also to have that mighty components! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Twenty-Six-Wicket-Tricks-tp21214357p24725019.html Sent from the Wicket - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
Re: Twenty Six Wicket Tricks
Personally I would embed YUI splitter and jQuery layout only if their state could survive page refresh. It does not seem they are capable for now. AFAIK it is possible to use coockies to save the state of splitter or docked panel.

Perhaps something about handling URLs. Like writing your own url coding
strategy and how to mount pages with URL that have some variable before
the fixed parts (like /{language}/products/{productid}).

Re: Twenty Six Wicket Tricks
Jeremy, from my perspective ModalWindow is a mix of javascript widget that works in non-wicket mode and an wicket wrapper that bridges js widget with wicket. It is always created at the body level. That's why I said it's a cheat. Thus are problems with form submitting when nested forms are used. Community introduced a solution (a wrapping form that is threated as the root) to work around the mismatch of ModalWindow structure. There is an issue registered about that. But Matej keeps stating that we should put MW into a form. What says that he is not aware what the problem is. And there are more problems caused by the fact that the form element is created by javascript. From the other hand I believe it is possible to write pure Wicket component that would be as trice as simpler and won't suffer with problems with request lifecycle. Probably I'm wrong and it is not worth turning the old ModalWindow into pure Wicket component due to expensiveness of the effort that would be spent to remain it compatible. The same about tree components. The API is very difficult to comprehend. Component does not work as I expect in dynamic context. But thankfully Sven implemented different implementation that does what is expect and usable as well as DataTable component. I believe forking and fixing the original component would be much more expensive. After that so many people should start complaining about that to convince core team that there is not just one person who is experiencing problems. It is always difficult to accomplish. jthomerson wrote: Why create your own? Submit a patch to fix what you see is wrong with the current one.

It is always created at the body level. That's why I said it's a cheat. Thus are problems with form submitting when nested forms are used. There is a good reason why the modal window has to be created on body level. That's the only reliable way to have element with absolute position. If you create the DOM structure deeper you are risking that a container has position:relative somewhere which will essentially break it. Welcome to the wonderful world of CSS. Community introduced a solution (a wrapping form that is threated as the root) to work around the mismatch of ModalWindow structure. There is an issue registered about that. But Matej keeps stating that we should put MW into a form. What says that he is not aware what the problem is. And there are more problems caused by the fact that the form element is created by javascript. Is it, really? I've already explained why the DOM structure is created on root level. If you have form component inside modal window, chances are that wicket will (to support nested forms) render it as div. If this happens it is no longer possible to serialize the form when doing an ajax submit. That's why the actual modal window markup contains a real form. And this is why it is necessary to put a modal window inside a form if you want to have form in modal window. What we should have done is to put a wicket form inside the modal window panel itself (just to force all forms in modal window content) to be rendered as nested. But for some reason i thought that a simple mention in javadoc about putting modal window to form would be sufficient. My bad. From the other hand I believe it is possible to write pure Wicket component that would be as trice as simpler and won't suffer with problems with request lifecycle. Probably I'm wrong and it is not worth turning the old ModalWindow into pure Wicket component due to expensiveness of the effort that would be spent to remain it compatible. Would you mind specifying the actual problems with request lifecycle? And how exactly would a pure wicket modal window look like? No javascript? The same about tree components. The API is very difficult to comprehend. Component does not work as I expect in dynamic context. But thankfully Sven implemented different implementation that does what is expect and usable as well as DataTable component. I believe forking and fixing the original component would be much more expensive. After that so many people should start complaining about that to convince core team that there is not just one person who is experiencing problems. It is always difficult to accomplish. I would like to have some clarification on this. What is so difficult about the Wicket Tree API? (apart from the fact that it uses swing TreeModel which seem to be too confusing for some people). What does dynamic context mean? Assuming you have properly implemented TreeModel that fires the proper notifications, wicket tree is capable for updating itself on ajax request by only transmitting the changed part to the clients. How much more dynamic can you get? For next version we will probably ditch swing TreeModel for something simpler but we will still need some kind of modal change notification. Wicket tree has many objectives, simplicity is only one of them. Having simple tree is nice as long as you don't have to refresh the entire thing every time you expand a node or add a node child. -Matej jthomerson wrote: Why create your own?

Re: Twenty Six Wicket Tricks
believe it is possible to write pure Wicket component that would be as trice as simpler and won't suffer with problems with request lifecycle. Probably I'm wrong and it is not worth turning the old ModalWindow into pure Wicket component due to expensiveness of the effort that would be spent to remain it compatible. Would you mind specifying the actual problems with request lifecycle? And how exactly would a pure wicket modal window look like? No javascript? The same about tree components. The API is very difficult to comprehend. Component does not work as I expect in dynamic context. But thankfully Sven implemented different implementation that does what is expect and usable as well as DataTable component. I believe forking and fixing the original component would be much more expensive. After that so many people should start complaining about that to convince core team that there is not just one person who is experiencing problems. It is always difficult to accomplish. I would like to have some clarification on this. What is so difficult about the Wicket Tree API? (apart from the fact that it uses swing TreeModel which seem to be too confusing for some people). What does dynamic context mean? Assuming you have properly implemented TreeModel that fires the proper notifications, wicket tree is capable for updating itself on ajax request by only transmitting the changed part to the clients. How much more dynamic can you get? For next version we will probably ditch swing TreeModel for something simpler but we will still need some kind of modal change notification. Wicket tree has many objectives, simplicity is only one of them. Having simple tree is nice as long as you don't have to refresh the entire thing every time you expand a node or add a node child. -Matej jthomerson wrote: Why create your own?

Confusing for some, easy for others (who maybe already have worked with it in Swing) :-) Components like that get complex pretty quickly. Look at what other frameworks deliver and see if you can use that without a lot of hacking (if they provide a tree widget backed by a model to start with, most probably just don't). But hey, the more alternatives the merrier; in the end API design (and thus Wicket widget design) involves a lot of subjective choices.

Re: Twenty Six Wicket Tricks
It would be nice to see examples of complex components with values that depend on other values from the same component. As an example, I've recently build a tab panel, each tab contains a table of items each one with unit price and quantity, and the tab's Subtotal below the table. The whole tabpanel has a Total below it. When you enter a quantity for an item, his unitprice * quentity in the same row has to be updated, and also the Subtotal price for that tab and the Total price. Getting the Total of the whole component working was a bit tricky, and trying to think all that in terms of a reusable component was a bit tricky also. Happy new year !

Re: Twenty Six Wicket Tricks
Hi ! Good idea :) Personally, intra components communication is something I would be keen to read more about : what are the pro and cons of the various ways of letting various components know about other components states/model changes ? I found some interesting blogs entry about this topic but an extensive review would be welcome.

Re: Twenty Six Wicket Tricks
Jonathan, We're finally starting work on a more advanced jWeekend Wicket course/workshop to complement our existing Wicket training so we would certainly look into buying several copies of such a book. Our Wicket courses have been running for 18 months and for much of that time we have been buying Martijn Eelco's http://manning.com/dashorst Wicket In Action (since the WiA MEAPs) as gifts for most attendees and also occasionally for our http://jweekend.co.uk/dev/LWUGReg/ London Wicket Event delegates (next event on Feb 4, BTW - registration page/details coming soon). Once we've reviewed the contents, we would certainly consider buying licences for the PDF of your new book for students attending our Wicket training. If you need reviewers, I am sure we can help with that here, and can no doubt also get some meaningful feedback to you from our more advanced London Wicket Event delegates if you like.

Re: Twenty Six Wicket Tricks
i like those too. and i hope people keep blogging about wicket like that. it's nice to get the gist of how to do something that way and boost WIA in the process. however, the quality bar of chapters in twenty-six tricks will be higher and my goals for each trick are (i hope) considerably more rigorous and educational than a blog entry. they are: (1) to present a fully reusable, high-quality component suitable for including in your application directly and with no changes (i'm generally designing these tricks for reuse and extension) (2) to cohesively demonstrate and detail through discussion a range of design choices and patterns in the process (probably the more valuable part, as you will (hopefully) understand not only what it is that i've done, but why it's been done that way and not some other way). (3) to reuse tricks in building new tricks if it's mainly cost you are worried about, i haven't chosen a price yet, but it will obviously be less than WIA. and if you want to give feedback, i will need some reviewers and you're welcome to be one, although be warned that i'm not looking for casual feedback since this is a book project and not a blog. i'd want thorough and detailed comments on the code and text for several (say 5) chapters (which will take you hours, not minutes). in return for their work, each reviewer gets a free copy of the book. jon martin-g wrote: Does it have to be a book ?

Re: Twenty Six Wicket Tricks
Thanks Nino. The problem is that there isn't any place on the wiki that pulls all of this together. Consequently I've seen aspects of this asked several times on the list. If I don't hear anything to the contrary, I'll assume that this material is in fact missing from the wiki and I'll add it. This is the best info I'm aware of on these components (excepting the good coverage of DropDownChoice on the wiki): http://www.wicket-library.com/wicket-examples/forminput/ Oh, and in my first pass I missed CheckBoxMultipleChoice.

NP, yeah but anyhow you have your point. If it gets asked a lot then the WIKI needs it :) Scott Swank wrote: Thanks Nino.

Re: Twenty Six Wicket Tricks
Jon, I would also offer to review for you, even understanding your rigorous requirements :) That would be a privilege if you have the need. -- Jeremy Thomerson http://www.wickettraining.com On Tue, Dec 30, 2008 at 10:55 AM, Jonathan Locke jonathan.lo...@gmail.comwrote: i like those too. and i hope people keep blogging about wicket like that. it's nice to get the gist of how to do something that way and boost WIA in the process. however, the quality bar of chapters in twenty-six tricks will be higher and my goals for each trick are (i hope) considerably more rigorous and educational than a blog entry. they are: (1) to present a fully reusable, high-quality component suitable for including in your application directly and with no changes (i'm generally designing these tricks for reuse and extension) (2) to cohesively demonstrate and detail through discussion a range of design choices and patterns in the process (probably the more valuable part, as you will (hopefully) understand not only what it is that i've done, but why it's been done that way and not some other way). (3) to reuse tricks in building new tricks if it's mainly cost you are worried about, i haven't chosen a price yet, but it will obviously be less than WIA. and if you want to give feedback, i will need some reviewers and you're welcome to be one, although be warned that i'm not looking for casual feedback since this is a book project and not a blog. i'd want thorough and detailed comments on the code and text for several (say 5) chapters (which will take you hours, not minutes). in return for their work, each reviewer gets a free copy of the book. jon martin-g wrote: Does it have to be a book ? I do really like Igor's series at wicketinaction.com. Pros: the community feedback as comments. Cons: it is not profitable.

Perhaps something about handling URLs. Like writing your own url coding
strategy and how to mount pages with URL that have some variable before
the fixed parts (like /{language}/products/{productid}).
