Hi Johan,ahh yes thats true i overlooked your changes.. then yes currently you have to do new Link<Void> (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.
Well, I'd hardly say it's just for the sake of it! It's *required* to *properly* generify Wicket. Due to the strong coupling in the design of Wicket of a component to a model, when you refer to a component you *must* specify the type of the model... Anything else is just plain bad (and strange) use of generics... :-(
If it's to clearify the API - make those cases generic or have them implement a different IModel (like ListModel e.g.).
I'm very much against using generics to do something other from what generics where meant to do (i.e., type safety).
