Re: wicket panels and parent class

Exactly. The (typed) IModel abstraction approach is the most "wickety" way of doing it. :) On Mon, Sep 29, 2008 at 9:13 PM, Timo Rantalaiho <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Mon, 29 Sep 2008, James Carman wrote: >> Just be careful. If the object reference in the parent is retrieved >> from a Loada

Re: wicket panels and parent class

It may not be a "best practice", but if MyInfoPanel does not need to be "reusable" you can make it an inner class of MyProfile. Then userId can be accessed directly. Phil On Mon, Sep 29, 2008 at 6:45 AM, Steve Swinsburg < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all, > I'm a new Wicket user and am develop

Re: wicket panels and parent class

And then have to cast it to the class of the parent.. which kinda kills the independent component based idea of reusable panels. Why not pass along the userid when constructing? Or fetch it from the session. Michael Sparer wrote: getParent() ? Steve Swinsburg-2 wrote: Hi all, I'm a ne
