We could use this as a use case for WUG today? And kickstart the contrib?

Hi
Could you explain a little more about how you do?
Do you "just" use the look and feel when using form compoents, or have
are
you also using the FormPanel?
I have tried to "convert" FormPanel but with very little success :-(

At our company we've been using wicket and ExtJS (1.1) quite
successfully
for
a while now. Here are the components we have working:
- Accordion - Using a RefreshingView to populate the accordion,
rendered
by
Ext in the browser
- BorderLayout (really doesn't tie to Wicket, we just made a page which
uses the BorderLayout)
- Modal Panel (not using Wicket's ModalPanel)
- Drag and drop dashboard - Still has problems, but uses a
refreshingview
to create divs which each are rendered as DnD components by Ext
- Form components (date picker, better-styled text boxes)
The basic pattern we're using is to generate markup with Wicket, and use
behaviors to decorate the wicket components with ExtJS components.
Managing
the complete lifecycle of the Ext component is the trickiest part,
but is
manageable.
Personally I think there are two of us who would like to contribute to a
WicketStuff project around this, but will have to check with company
policies about contributing code we've written.

This is really an interesting topic!
I've made some Wicket-Extjs integration tests and I haven't found
any
particular issues to make them work smoothly together.
Extjs UI widgets can be created dynamically or can be attach to
existing
HTML elements using the element IDs.
Following the latter approach is quite easy integrate Extjs with
Wicket.
The simplest way I've tried is using a behavior to 'attach' an Extjs
widget
to Wicket component.
For example:
public class ExtDateFieldBehavior extends ExtAbstractBehavior{
@Override
String getExtjsClassName() {
return "Ext.form.DateField";
}
}
public abstract class ExtAbstractBehavior extends AbstractBehavior {
/**
* Used to add all common Extjs required JavaScript and CSS
resources
*/
@Override
public void bind(Component component) {
if( component == null ) throw new
IllegalArgumentException("Argument
cannot be null");
component.setOutputMarkupId(true);
component.add(HeaderContributor.forCss( Extjs.Css.EXT_ALL
));
component.add(HeaderContributor.forJavaScript(
Extjs.Js.EXT_BASE ));
component.add(HeaderContributor.forJavaScript(
Extjs.Js.EXT_ALL_DEBUG ));
}
abstract String getExtjsClassName();
abstract String getOptions();
@Override
public void onRendered( Component component ) {
/* create a copy of options */
Config options = new Config( config );
/* initialization */
config(component,options);
/* get the string version */
String sConfig = Extjs.serialize(options);
String extjs = "new " + getExtjsClassName() + "(" +
getOptions() +
");";
//TODO log here
Response r = component.getResponse();
r.write( JavascriptUtils.SCRIPT_OPEN_TAG );
r.write( extjs );
r.write( JavascriptUtils.SCRIPT_CLOSE_TAG );
}
}
That's all!
Obviously this is just a simple test but it works and can be
extended
easily
for other widgets.
What I've found not trivial is to pass/define the Extjs widget
property/configuration in a easy/elegant way.
Would be interesting discuss this...

things like set the value for you, I don't see how to integrate

a

tag. It could be something very simple and I am just missing
it, if
so
please point me in the right direction.
Thanks!

At my company we use Ext2 and are very enthousiastic about it.
I want to move us from Struts to Wicket but lack of support for
Ext2
would be a roadblock...
